Update #2
Fnatic have interviewed Immunity about their training regiment, their opinions on the event and more.
I'm hoping to see Australia and the United States battle it out in an epic dual! It's been many years since Australia and the United States have met in CS1.6 and I really think it would be a cracker of a game - fingers crossed for the draw!
Matches seem to be delayed - HLTV's haven't been posted yet on HLTV.org either. For now there is the LIVESTEAM option but it may not feature Immunity: http://www.justin.tv/quadv
2:37 PM - iM gazR intel: PC in chinese 2:37 PM - iM gazR intel: wiggen hard
Update #4
HLTV.org have posted HLTV details for Immunity's first match vs Lions below, they are also on stage (Livestream available)
Computers have the wrong cs version, wrong cs models... games delayed by 4 hours. Three games can't be played at the same time anymore so this means the entire tournament is now delayed.
HLTV lagged out. The score went from 6-1 to just about 13-2 first half finished.
iM's computers crashed the entire match. One after another.. computer crashing. We also saw Kurandus lagging... at a lan event.
Update #6
MSI BEAT IT Organisers have reshuffled some matchups which now seems Immunity pitted against the Korean team WemadeFOX on de_tuscan

Update #11
The event schedule just keeps changing - Immunity should now be facing Evil Geniuses on de_train now (23:00)
HLTV: hltv3.verygames.net:27050
Update #12
Evil Geniuses defeat Immunity 16-10. Immunity played a good game winning both pistol rounds but unfortunately wasn't enough to close it off.
Update #13
HLTV for Immunity's final match against wNv revealed
HLTV: hltv3.verygames.net:27052
Update #14
wNv close out the final group game vs Immunity 16-8 on inferno
That's it for today! Bad luck to Immunity who had a rough start to the tournament facing PC issues, we'll be sure to catch up with them to share with you their experience.
Excellent work beedee, just wondering what format the final is in? I don't think I'll be able to see any of the games unless the format is BO3.. And even then maybe only catch the 3rd map (if it goes to that!).
I'll edit the post to make it clearer, but those times listed are rounds from the group stage not actual matches itself meaning if Immunity are drawn into Group A, they will be playing from 14:30 to 17:30.
Update from the center: Computers have the wrong cs version, wrong cs models... games delayed by 4 hours. Three games can't be played at the same time anymore so this means the entire tournament is now delayed.
HLTV lagged out. The score went from 6-1 to just about 13-2 first half finished.
iM's computers crashed the entire match. One after another.. computer crashing. We also saw Kurandus lagging... at a lan event.
gazr told me they are actually due to play WMF on tuscan next instead of EG. I'm guessing there's been reshuffles because WNV might have pulled out of the entire comp?
really cant see how a dodgy right click or not being able to disable mouseaccel is anyones fault but their own, but yeh dno, the pcs definitely seemed bad on the first game caus kurandus was lagging + dropouts etc, oh well bl i guess :/
=< didnt see any other game besides the first due to delays, looks like they did fairly well with what preperation they had for this comp, hopefully the euro bootcamp prep gets them well prepared for WCG.
Terribly run tourny overall but yeah, bl iM with some of the losses.
sounds like a pretty horribly run comp, just hope they got atleast some form of prac from it! whats goin on today with the finals? i cant see any upcomin games on hltv, are they even playing finals?
I thought they played pretty well against EG and ran out of juice against wnv, yam was awesome in every match I saw. Bl's all round though, should've been a good prac for them aside from all the problems they had. No more blogs/coverage? :<
Ye I agree with dave tbh. Might have gotten more wins in Group B but top2 was pretty hard. Group A was a group of 5 semi decent-decent teams (easier than fnatic and tyloo imo)
Fnatic were down 14-6 as CT's on de_nuke and came back to win in over time. Must watch demo. Some absolutely amazing 2v4's by fnatic.
Also I highly recommend everyone re-watch every demo twice. One with the POV set to n0thing, the other with POV set to froD.
Who is CONZ? froD > *
Also f0rest played, by far, his worst tournament of the past 12 months. If that kid was on fire it'd be a different story but you can't take away anything from EG. N0thing and froD did the most crazy... random... running around jumping frags ever. GG

edit: will pay ya for efforts
Everyone should record the HLTV matches they watch and upload.
iM on stage
hasn't started yet
Too bad it's like 8 minutes long.
Lions > iM 16-2
iM played with 4 for most of the game. GG Chinese HLTV and GG tournament delayed by 4 hours.
Computers have the wrong cs version, wrong cs models... games delayed by 4 hours. Three games can't be played at the same time anymore so this means the entire tournament is now delayed.

GG.
funniest cunt
Well at least we beat the Indians.
de_Nuke: 9-6 to iM as CT's
then 7-1 as T's
Final score: 16-7 de_nuke
GO IM GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
anyone know ip for immunity vs wnv?
16-10 to EG (I think)
iM go home,..
MVP: Kurandus
Stepped up in time in most matches and did extremely important 2-frag openers in many rounds. Also sports a great mullet.
Terribly run tourny overall but yeah, bl iM with some of the losses.
Good for pracs. Good for lans.
Tyloo beat Fnatic 16-10
Dud Group B...
iM came 5th in Group A. At this rate, though, I'd expect them to come 3rd if they were in Group B
Goes for 24 minutes:
