Okay, so I know they're competition but we got this in the news mailbox:

We'd like to let your readers know that GameSpot will be hosting the QUAKE 4
Seismic Showdown tournament on Thursday and Friday, December 15 and 16 where
gamers will have the chance to compete for $2000 in cash prizes, with the
top winner taking home up to $1000. In the contest, 64 players will battle
against each other in a series of single elimination 1-on-1 Deathmatch games
where fraggers' will need to defeat every opponent in order to move on to
the next round.

The top four players will advance to the semifinals on Friday, December 16,
and the winners will then face off in the finals where the ultimate GameSpot
QUAKE 4 champion will be crowned. Every match on Friday will be shown LIVE
on <http://www.gamespot.com/tournaments/quake4dec05/tv.php> Tournament TV,
featuring commentary by Ryan Mac Donald and Rich Gallup. GameSpot will be
giving away cool prizes, including QUAKE 4 t-shirts and NVIDIA graphics
cards to some lucky viewers.

The first place winner will receive $750, with the chance to win another
$250 in the PRO GAMER CHALLENGE if he/she can beat Kornelia Takacs - a
professional QUAKE player, in a single 1-on-1 Deathmatch game. The second
winner will receive $500 and the third and fourth place winners will each
receive $250.
