ACWC Awards

The 2013 ACWC is finally over, and it was a great way to end 1104, with fierce battles between countries from all four corners of the globe. Now, the ACWC admins and referees are hereby delighted to present the fantastic ACWC awards that were graciously designed by ACWC veteran BigBen.


1st Place - USA|
for a well-deserved consistently performing first time ACWC winner.



2nd Place - Fra|
for an excellent contender that put up a very hard fight in the final and have proven themselves to be one of the best teams in ACWC history.



3rd Place - LA|
for a legendary team throughout ACWC history that performed to a commendably high standard in this tournament.

The following awards were judged by admins and referees.

Best Flagger - USA|Waffles
for being the consistently strongest flagger and most incredible attacker throughout the tournament.



Best Teamplayer - Fra|Harrek
for his consistent play, epic flags and awesome attacks throughout the tournament.



Best Defender - LA|Sacerock
for his brilliant defending vs UK: on gothic, leaving the scoreline at 0-0.


Best Clutch - NRD.aNytHe0ne
for his outstanding flag return on Waffles, bringing the Nordic team to a tie with USA on the first round - and for almost scoring again after that (if there were three more seconds, the Nordic team would have won).



Most Improved - USA|haste
for his consistently advancing skill level and in-game performance through from the start of the tournament to the end.



Fairplay award - Germany
for playing with a weaker lineup of theirs vs Brazil, simply so that they could finish their match before the required deadline.

ACWC Thanks

Harrek and I would like to personally take time to thank each and every one of you that helped make this year's ACWC the success it was. Through some technical difficulties, a version change, some teams' organizational problems and even a DDoS of the official AC forum and masterserver, we kept going. And that would have not been possible without the help of the following people:

Luc@s - whose help with the anticheat client, match viewer and gaia.woop.us servers has been boundless. ACWC would have not been a success at all if it were not for his tireless efforts to make it so.

Newbie - for helping with the initial arrangement and organization of ACWC - even if he went inactive shortly after the tournament started.

BigBen - for making this year's awards and being a referee.

Oracle - for being a referee.

SercartY - for being a referee.

Million - for being a referee.

C4rma - for being a referee.

EndGame - for being a referee.

X-Ray_Dog - for being an incredibly dedicated and cooperative streamer throughout the course of the tournament.

Oxygen - for being a fantastic backup streamer when nobody else was available to cover any matches.

Ronald_Reagan - for contributing the acwc.pbclan.tk server to this year's event.

Xenon - for contributing the xenoob.tk server to this year's event.

RandumKiwi - for contributing the kiwi.ac server to this year's event.

gRamps - for contributing the bob-ac.net server to this year's event.

Undead - for casting several ACWC games, including the final.

Marti - for casting several ACWC games, including the final.

Waffles - for casting several ACWC games.

Larry - for casting several ACWC games.


And finally, thanks to each and every single one of you who played, watched, or simply supported ACWC in any way. You helped make it a success.


Cya next year!
