G4L.EU
g4l.eu is a free online portal created by players, for players! Our team consists of very different characters, all united in their addiction to gaming. We got together to create something new - g4l.eu!
It was our goal to create a platform which offers players the possibility of creating their own tournaments just as they desire, without having to follow too strict rules.
Many gamers know the feeling: Their requests and wishes do not get the attention they deserve. Their favourite games do not have any league, no tournaments are held. Reasons for this were 'too few players', 'clans with too few members' or the fact that there are only 'few active community members' to create a league. Most internet portals have to follow economic interests, which means that only leagues for well-known franchises with very large communities or markets can be supported. Games which are less known or do not have a large support are being ignored, as support for these games does not seem to pay off.
We, the g4l.eu team, were also confronted with exactly the same problems. Asking larger portals to create leagues for our favourite games was being ignored, either because they expected too few players or because these games werenot listed in the Top 10 charts.
In rare cases a league actually existed, but we had to follow strict rules or did not have any vote considering the order of events, the rating system or organisational questions. Enough is enough, so we decided to create our own platform, offering all our gamers exactly what we though was missing. The idea was born - g4l.eu!
