So there's a quick update on the new service that's about to open for beta testing that I posted about last week. Remember, this is open to anyone in the Gotfrag community that plays TF2 and lives within the US.

"Would you like a chance to test out a new gaming service geared toward competitive Counter-Strike: Source or Team Fortress 2 players before it launches? If so then we’re looking for you and a limited number of other passionate gamers to participate in a beta test of a new service starting February 1st. This service will allow players to compete in team-based games for a nominal event fee and reward those who rank up in the ladder based on both skill and team play with a cash payout. The more players that participate, the larger the cash pool and the greater the number of payout spots.

If this new service sounds interesting, then we need you to help us test. To be considered for one of 200 beta slots, all you need is some time to play every night from 9pm to 11pm CST for the month of February along with willingness to provide service feedback and participate in several focus groups. Simply visit http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/FPC9Y5C to apply for a beta testing position. Those who are selected to participate will get a free month when the service goes live and will get to test the payout structure which will provide an opportunity to get paid for testing."

So there you have it. A high level overview of what the service actually is. Hurry up as spots are limited, and there's been a ton of applicants. We're only taking a few more!
