You have not signed up to the tournament you are planning to play in yet?
This is a warning to everyone planning on entering the SC2, CS:S, COD4, TF2, BF3, LoL or MW3 tournaments - we have a pre-event deadline of Sunday 29th April for you to sign up to your tournaments! This is not mandatory, but we can not guarantee you a place in any tournament you sign up to later then this date (but we are nice so we probably will let you play).
Dont forget, you can win thousands of pounds in these tournaments, and many come with awesome physical prizes! To sign up to a tournament, you will need to get your ticket first!
EVGA will be at i45 with NVIDIA and Triple Widescreen on the Currys and PC World stand. Come and test drive the EVGA GeForce GTX 680 SC and Precision X software. Then push your driving skills to the max in the VRX iMotion 3D racing simulator – if you score the fastest lap of the show then you’ll be going home with EVGA’s Superclocked graphics card!

They will also have some UBER cool giveaways… and more graphics card (sur)prizes at the show. Find out more here.
Hi everyone!
Once again we have more updates on the developemt of ClanForge v3 :)
Some of you may have noticed that yesterday we released a new version which implements more functionality to manage your servers into v3. This was released to betaforge.multiplay.co.uk
In order to try and get a bigger userbase for this release, we are randomly forwarding some users from clanforge.multiplay.co.uk to betaforge.multiplay.co.uk so that we can get as many testing scenarios as possible.
However, you can also switch back to the old version of ClanForge if you wish, by clicking the "ClanForge Classic" link in the top bar.
If you find any bugs when using ClanForge v3 then please head over to the ClanForge Feedback Thread and let us know!
Live Control
In this release you can now manage your servers in real time from your Server Dashboard through the Live Control, which includes:
- Players / Bans
- FTP Details
- World Backup & Restore
- Server Console
- Upload / Download Files
- PunkBuster Bans
- PunkBuster Players Lists
- Registered Players for Comms Servers
- Current Game Settings
Please have a play with the new functions, and let us know what you think!
The Multiplay Team
Our community rocks.
Seriously, they are awesome. Dont believe me? Well OK, heres some proof for you!
Tom "kalleth" Russell, a invaluable member of our Community (honest), has created something to help everyone keep in touch with everything going on during an Insomnia Festival weekend; the Insomnia Viewr!
This cool little news feed app takes information from the Insomnia site, Twitter feed and various other sources to keep you in the loop with all the latest news and announcements that occur during a crazy weekend of gaming & activities @ an iSeries.
Why not give it a try this event! It will sit nicely on your desktop and feed you all the news from the event you could ever want, plus we are going to be trialling it as an Announcement System of sorts, to see whether it works better than the tannoy or simply yelling while stood on a desk.
A button to launch the Viewr will be available just below the menu bar on the Insomnia Site throughout the event for easy access.
For more information on the Viewr, check out Kalleths Forums Thread.
Cheers Kalleth! You may all buy him a pint at the event :D
Edit: Apparently Kalleth might not actually be able to attend the event, so please re-direct your generosity to Shed in the Finals Arena. Thanks.
The FINAL full line-up and schedule for the fighting games is now available! Due to popular demand we have added King of Fighters XIII to the list of awesome fighting games we are hosting tournaments for at Insomnia45. Also, Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 has some of the most powerful superheroes facing off with some of Capcoms greatest fighters. A very fast paced game - it will be a welcome addition for viewers and competitiors alike! We have also shuffled the days a little, so now there is 3 games per day on Saturday and Sunday.
To take part in these tournaments, just pay £10 per tournament entry fee (£5 for venue entry) - all of the tournament entry fee is paid straight into the prize pool! Sign up on the same day as the tournament itself between 10am and 12:30pm at the front desk. Tournaments will begin at 1pm, and each game will follow on from the last one, so dont disappear!
Check out the promo video and get your friends to check it out too. See you in Telford!
