Due to receiving complaints against a certain team, we've decided to put the Western Digital Challenge COD4 on hold. The tournament will resume once the conflicts have been resolved. I can only apologise to those teams that have been waiting and hope that these situations go a lot more smoother next time.

Thank you for understanding.

Yet again, we're proud to announce another Western Digital Challenge for COD4. Although some of the top teams may not sign-up due to LAN this gives those upcoming teams a chance to battle it out for 250€.
