Xonotic Defrag World Championship 2020

Hello Xonoticians!
We proudly present you the Xonotic Defrag World Championship 2020! XDWC is a CTS tournament where we invite everyone to join and have some fun.

FAQ

What is Defrag?
In Xonotic it is played in the CTS (Complete the Stage) mode using the XDF physics set. The goal is to complete a map as fast as possible.

How does XDWC work? (detailed rules further down below)
- Every player can join it at any time!
- 5 (or 6) unique and unreleased maps will be played
- Your time and ranking will be converted into a score for each map
- Player with the highest score after all maps will be crowned as the Winner

How do I get better?
There are two tutorial streams available as VODs:
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=crEfpslf-g4
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_-t_Z0Z2ic

Don't be afraid to even ask other players directly! Usually, they can tell you where you can improve or what you're doing wrong.
A good server to practise is "exe.pub | Relaxed Running | CTS/XDF". Detailed results here: https://xdf.teichisma.info/
Records from "Xonotic DeFrag - Join/Run now! - balance changes [XDF]" server can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3wiAbR...g2LnhjU7zw

Awesome

in any xdwc level always has some secret
how to dowload?

I plan to win this, so if everybody could please just not participate, that would make things a lot easier for me.

Looking forward to the maps! The last XDWCs were really a lot of fun!

each map will be kept secret until its round starts.

Nice - looking forward to the maps ....

Out of curiosity:
Are the Maps used in this made especially for Xonotic? I know that Xonotic often uses just Quake Defrag maps. Is that the case here as well?

All the maps used in this cup are made especially for this cup. So yes, they are only made with Xonotic in mind.

XDWC starts in less than 3 hours!! Join us and run.

PinkRobot donated 25 EUR to cover server costs. Thanks a lot!

Joa - Xonotic Defrag World Championship 2020 is done  
The 5th map was my favorite one - pretty long run - but even for noobs like me runable.

All in all one of my xonotic highlight this year - had a lot of fun ...
And I.ve achieved my goal of being in the top 100 - at least 86th from 337 participants - noobish enough
