GamesTV.org is today proud to announce the new version of its site. After years of loyal service to the community the old 'GTV1' is to be decommissioned and replaced by a brand new code built with adaptability in mind. With the pending release of new TV clients for Quakewars, Warsow and potentially Call of Duty 4 the GamesTV crew have shaped up for the latest wave of demand poised to hit their shores and offer users a new and improved experience!Having partnered with major international gaming establishments such as Quakecon in the past, GamesTV.org is a unique hub of TV IP connectivity that is run by a compact team of admins and their own hardware as opposed to one major server. This work intensive community orientated strategy has allowed the site to always be adaptive to the communities needs and cover as many matches as possible in a number of titles. After a whopping 3500 matches covered on GamesTV.org the time is nigh to secure the sites future by providing a better community orientated coverage platform that is 'GTV2'.
The new GamesTV.org site offers the same product you know and love in the shape of match coverage but also much more. Community favourite GBOOKY has had a revamp allowing for far greater interactivity and monitoring plus the new calendar system allows you not only to keep track of whats upcoming but also access the massive GTV archive to trace results from way back when. However thats only the beginning, the future of GamesTV.org has never been better, with upcoming releases of auctioning and on demand features the site is hoping to revolutionise gaming coverage and user interaction.
To name a few of the biggest changes:
- Completely Reworked Gbooky
- Improved Matchpage
- More Control for the people in charge
- A new pm system
- More flexible site access
- A new design
- You name it ;-)
If you find any bugs or have suggestions, please feel free to post them straight as a comment to this news ;-)

Nice, but you should change that shit ET:QW pic @ the top. Looks pretty ugly.
Well, it's not explicitly ugly, it just needs some blending, be moved to the left, and eventually maybe even some addition of a background or something like that :)
nice :)

I prefer the old one
I hate those ugly black on white themes, and especialy the ETQW banner
all sites just look the same these days, no creative designers any more just copy/pasters

This > the old.
indeed!
not realy imo
if I take a look on this site now the only thing I see a boxes, just seperated boxes could have been much better if the boxes where attached to each other with some nice skin not just black for the title box and white for the rest of the site
but thats just my opinion, I just hate it that all "new" sites look almost the same and simplistic

Bug: while viewing player rankings on different pages on...
http://www.gamestv.org/gbooky.php
...it only displays the ranking for that specific page. For example, the best player on page 2 would really be 51st, but he shows up to be first. Dunno if it has something to do with the fact that everyone has exactly the same amount of money right now...

How do you get to the gbooky rankings?
Nvm found it already.

Just one small thing; If you want to copi the Button links you can't use the right click on your mouse, atleast I can't copi it with right mouse only with ctrl+v

"GBooky will only allow you to bet a maximum of 50% of your current pot at any one time."
Then why can I bet all my 50€?

Alright nice, so what happens when you get to 0? :)
we also changed that: everybody who is below 100€ (capital) gets 5€/day.
Sounds good!
Any possibility to add a option to choose between these new flags, and the old more boxy ones. Since they were more clear and better overall :)
not rly, sorry
user's navigation - the flag in this headline is little too low, in opera at least :)
good idea :P

Where has the Poll of the Week gone?
If it were to be reinstalled, I'd suggest you put the vote at the end of the week, which games were the best to watch after the week has past, so that people who didn't watch them all, could actually be invited to watch those matches appointed by the community which were the best of the week.
Also a history of the polls of the weeks could be handy for people who would like to check a few weeks back, and determine whether a match was worth seeing or not.
Perhaps this could even be expanded to Match of the Month, or Player of the Month, or Action of the Month :D
So many ideas and possibilities, I think worth considering. :)
Furthermore, the What's hot box has a kinda strange behaviour when you rollover the pending matches.
Perhaps an AJAX info-box next to the pointer when you rollover would have been a better choice.
And lastly, in gtv1 when you had replies to comments, they were all shown in the upper left corner, but when clicked on 1 of them, the next pageload would just not show the others anymore. Is this solved or still due to examination?
In any case, great job on gtv2. It's a big step forward and the system for adding matches and so forth is quite unique.
Gratz!

Don't know if you already know this, but when looking at the news page (http://www.gamestv.org/news/) you can't view any pages other than page 1. The url changes, but the news items are still the same as Page 1
