So as we approach the final weeks before epic.TEN, it's time start letting you know about the big games and fun tournaments taking place at the first major LAN party of 2013.

First up, it's a return of an old epic.LAN favourite, with our fun FPS tournament, UT2004. We run with a nice simple format for this one, everyone joins the server (or 2 servers if there's enough demand) and we run short deathmatch stages. Every stage, we kick a few players until we're left with our last man (or woman) standing to be crowned as the winner.

The tournament needs no introduction, it has been a tried and tested favourite at many previous epic.LAN events.

We fill a server with people who want to play on a first-come-first-served basis and kick off an deathmatch map with a time limit of 5mins and a frag limit of 100. As soon as either of those limits are reached we kick-ban the bottom few players and move onto the next map until we're left with the best of the best, who will take part in the Final on the Sunday!

Once again this is a solo tournament, so you don't need to worry about finding teams, just sign up at the event to take part!
