The information made a GotFrag appearance in the way of a forum post but it deserves to be included in and among the latest news. Here is the press release for the Don Baker ETL Cancer Research Cup as first published by etlzombie in the forums on August 22.

These are tournaments you can feel good about even if you lose. I remember in COD1 my team joined up in a Cysticfibrosis(spelling) tourney and won some stuff. It was fun, and it helped a good cause.

Wow thanks for the News post, I am very grateful

Just to get everyone up to speed...

As of this morning all the proper paperwork has been filed with the Gateway for Cancer Research & approved. They have also agreed to handle all money involved meaning that..

A) When you register you will make a direct donation to the charity
B) They will pool all registration money received into a fund & at the conclusion of the tournament, they will award the prize money accordingly.

ETL will never see or handle any of the money involved only specify who is to receive winnings. This should help to ease anyones concerns about the legitimacy of this cup.

Thanks again & many thanks to Amanda for her support :)
