CTA II - "Best Of" video online
Shade on 14.03.2010 um 22:46 (UTC) | | I’m happy to let you know, that I completed my tournament-diary today.
Even though, I unfortunately wasn’t able to be comparably successful like in the previous CTA tournament, I still believe that at least a few of the duels I had are pretty entertaining to watch. Furthermore, I want to take this chance to wish the two finalists -Wedge (IRL) and Thomas (ENG)- the best of luck for their imminent encounter. May the best player take the win.

CTA II - preliminaries completed!
Shade on 27.11.2009 um 10:08 (UTC) | | After 4 weeks of bloody battles, relentless feuds and disturbing outbreaks of violence, the tournament goes into its Final-round! So far, I have to say that I’m once again very satisfied with the current progress of this event. Except for a few minor lapses -which are obviously not entirely avoidable in such a competitive and international event-, we witnessed a fair and mature tournament progress.
Now, I’m proud to announce the 8 finalists: Arkain, BlessedKnight, Nekony, Neyda, Royal, Thomas, Wedge and my humble self. Well done guys! Let’s hope that we'll experience an exciting and memorable finish. May the best player take the win!

CTA II - let the games begin!
Shade on 25.10.2009 um 01:24 (UTC) | | I’m proud to declare the second “Call To Arms” tournament of this year as opened! 20 of the best duellists out of 10 different nations will most certainly do their very best, to make this tournament to a thrilling and memorable event.
Yep I’m fully aware that today is the 24th October, but I don’t have the opportunity to be on the computer tomorrow, so I've decided to publish the groups a few hours earlier than scheduled. Don’t worry, I will add you one additional day to your first deadline interval, so you won't receive any disadvantages due this early start.
I honestly hope, that we'll once again experience a clean and friendly social intercourse between our participants. The major thought behind this event is to build up friendships, and to minor the distances between our local communities.

CTA II - starting field complete
Shade on 28.09.2009 um 19:35 (UTC) | | During the last few days, we achieved the scheduled maximum amount of 20 participants.
I’m very satisfied with the current participants’ list. Once again, the global cream of Diablo’s PVP community has assembled to determine the most gifted among them.
I recommend all participants to join the forum as soon as possible. Within there, all your upcoming questions will be answered.

CTA II - application starts today!
Shade on 15.09.2009 um 05:54 (UTC) | | For the second time in this year, we invite you to take part in the ultimate PVP challenge! As of today, it is possible to register for the oncoming “Call To Arms - The Revenge” tournament. Please take note, that we will close the application as soon as we have reached the maximum amount of participants. Consequently, it's in your own interest to register as soon as possible, if you toy with the idea of becoming part of this event. We target a scale which is rather equivalent to the prequel happening, so it must be assumed, that not everybody will be able to make it into the final starting field. If everything works on schedule, the tournament will start at the 25th of October.
I have to point out, that it's a necessity that you ensure to have sufficient time to play your duels in a defined time-frame. We won't tolerate inactive behavior in this event!

"Miscellaneous"
Shade on 03.09.2009 um 18:01 (UTC) | | I accrued a few minor important news and combined them to one cumulative post, which almost ratifies the effort of writing it. Ingenious, isn’t it?
Here we go! First of all, I had to update the diablodupes.ini file, ‘cause I stumbled over a downloadable item-package, which contained a lot of stuff that was not mentioned on the list. Granted, not a very big update, but a noteworthy one!
Up next, I was able to finish my new PVP video today. It contains a very spectacular axe duel versus Wedge. Definitely worth seeing, if you ask me.
A good bet for all the fans of Diablo’s magnificent storyline:
Visit our new Quest -section. Additive to the basic quest information and descriptions, it’s possible to listen to almost every single spoken word of the game. What’s YOUR favourite quote?
Last but not least, I want to let you know, that the application of CTA II will start at in early September. Time to sharpen your blades and derust your armor!
