Hello, I am here to inform the Crasher community about the weekly tournaments that are hosted by ESL.
There are two per week, and each has a reward of 150 Euros or 220 Dollars if you are victorious.
http://www.esl.eu/eu/#/eu/crasher/
The tournaments are at 12 PM Pacific time, so yes it might be a problem if you have work earlier in the day, but its something we can't get around at the moment.
So yes, Americans, along with everyone else are allowed to sign up to this tournament even though it is hosted on European servers.
Another reason I am making this post is so that people who do not have a team for the tournaments can create or join one.
If you don't have a team feel free to post here with your information.
Heres an a basic example of what I mean.
Steam name: FoREVer
Class in Crasher: Colossus/Avalanche
Language: English
My team, Jesus Missiles, has already won $440 from the tournaments we won.
Along with that, there's no entry fee, I mean, what's there to lose?
If there's anything I didn't answer, or if you have any other questions, please let me know.
Finally, here is how you can change your servers from US to EU.
First find your Crasher folder, it is located at
Program Files>Steam>Steamapps>common>crasher
From here you will want to right click on the config.xml file which is located in the crasher folder, and open it with notepad.
You will see a lot of text, scroll down to find a line that looks something like this:
<m_netZone>us</m_netZone>
In order to access the European servers you must change the us to fr, so it should look like this:
<m_netZone>fr</m_netZone>
Now when you open Crasher the European servers will show up instead of the US servers.
Good luck to everyone!
