EDiT who had a long and illustrious history in Call of Duty have sad news, their cod4 squad leaves the organisation. This is due to lack of support from Team-EDiT. Some people will be more suprised about this then others who saw this coming. Other rumours are that the EDiT managent felt that the team didn't have what it takes to become a real top team. The team will continue under their old name Not-Identified.

Statement Revoltz:
With our departure from EDiT yesterday evening, I can say that our communication wasn't superb with the key members of the management. EDiT have great potential as an organisation due to their new website and their history, but they couldn't offer us what we required and we felt that promises weren't met.

Let's all hope that not-identified will not be affected by this unfortunate situation and that this won't have an impact on their cdc4 appearance.

Afther the launch of etqw 1.4 and etqw tv, etqw geths perhaps another boost, ephix presents their new etqw team, the lineup consists of ex-players from GROF, One2, hMg and cZar.

After my old team quit playing ET:QW, I knew that I wasn't done with the game. I took me a while to find the right connections but with Lukos and vipern we where able to get the players we needed to form a strong QW-team. Having every position covered with an experienced player feels good, and the recent pickup of dodde gives our infantry core more confidence. I have a lot of faith in this team and I'm proud to play with them.

With the change from Cod2 to Cod4 Serious has gone through a few changes in its line up. After the retirement of Michiel 'rapz' Kappen a few months ago, and Nick 'Solz" Schurink going inactive with the introduction of Cod4, they had the task to fill the two open spots with worthy successors.

Over the last few weeks they have been testing several players which resulted in the addition of two new upcoming stars, Bob 'supreme' Janssen and Roman 'Roman' Semjonov.

The changed Serious.Cod4 line up for 2008 looks as following:

Niels 'Zemme' van Steenbergen
Siebe 'nutec' Huisman
Rick 'r1k' Smit
Bob 'supreme' Janssen
Roman 'roman' Semjonov

Serious.Cod4 currently competes in several ClanBase cups and the CoDQCup. The first LAN you can see the new team live in action will be CDC4, scheduled at the end of Februari in Enschede, the Netherlands.

Statement Serious:
"We are very happy to add these two new upcoming stars to our line up. Both players have made a great impression during their trial period in the team, and convinced us they were the right players to fill the open spots. We are very confident with this team we can maintain our status of being one of the best teams out there!"

Statement Bob 'supreme' Janssen:
"I'm really happy to join a team like Serious Gaming, they are very well known in the Call of Duty community thanks to all their previous successes. They have got a lot of knowledge and LAN-experience and I can't wait to reach the same results with my new team as they did in Call of Duty 2! Shoutouts to everyone from Serious Gaming and ofcourse my old team Koppensnellers. Cu at crossfire lan!"

Statement Roman 'roman' Semjonov:
"After playing a few months in team-ephix I realized this wasn’t the team for me. When the chance occured to trial for one of the vacant spots in the Serious line up I decided this would become my spot. So obviously now I'm very happy to be joining Serious Gaming. It's a real honour to play in a top team like this and hope we will dominate the Call of Duty 4 scene as these guys did in Call of Duty 2."
