I can't believe it closed so suddenly, i didnt even know it was going to close, and i usually keep up with this kind of stuff.

good.....fucking....riddance. Other than giving prick as leet gamers plaques to put on their prick ass wall, making them even more prickassish, and encouraging the production of games that are prick-friendly..........CPL has done nothing for evolving game content, quality, scope, or scale.

it's because of things like CPL that Kaos thought it was ok to release FFOW without VOIP. Id did the same with Quake Wars. Because the CPL "all stars" and bigtimers told em "yo, only teh nuubs use teh Vo!ps, dudez".

i think overall, though, CAL has done more damage. since any chimp with a keyboard can register a team, more and more people get sucked in, get an inflated opinion of their own skill, and get turned into the leet-speaking fucktards that we have to ban on a daily basis. "oh, you've never done CAL? well then i don't have to listen to you noobs." how many times have we heard that sort of shit?

And nothing of value was lost.

Truthfully, the whole thing is completely anti-teamplay. You get the best players with the best reflexes and try to just kill the other players. As bigdog put so eloquently, they've done jack shit to help games.

Good riddance.
