It's time for the first KNOCKOUT of the 2021. On Sunday the 24th of January at 15:00 CET 15 players will take to the field and decide who will be the KO champion. This is only the first in a series of events which are organised by a valued member of our community Donna30.

How can you sign up?
Signups will be done through this Urban Zone news post. The first 15 people to reply with "Sign me up" will play. If you aren’t one of the lucky fifteen, sign up anyway – some people always drop out and you can take up their place. You are expected to be present in Discord at 14:40 CET, with the nickname you signed up with. If you are not there on time your spot will be given away.

There is two exceptions to the first 15 people rule!

1. The first spot is reserved for the returning champion Zmb 
2. Our Twitch subscribers will be able to ‘jump the queue’ by contacting SevenofNine in Discord. This also counts for new subscribers, want to play and/or support the streams? You can subscribe here.

As part of the #stayhome Urban Zone rebooted the Skeet Shoot Tournament, in short, clay pigeon shooting but then online.
Many signed up, but only 21 people showed they had the backbone to try their skills in front of the audience. After two days of qualifying only 10 remained for the third and final day.
Each player had only 1 attempt, so the pressure was on, many tried to get past the psychological barrier of 600 and if it wasn't for a troll skeet worth 1 point Ter0x would have been the first. We suspect he's still waking up with cold sweats remembering this moment:

Then it was time for his compatriot, enter... Maku.

Words can't describe what he did, you'll have to watch it!


Congratulations Maku, enjoy a couple beers for all of your efforts, the hard-fought €20 are yours!

Want to watch all the competitors? Here's the approximatly 7.5 hours worth of Skeet Shooting, including a very frustrated SevenofNine!

After 8 years the UZ-bot is getting cocky, time to give him some punishment, lock and load for the third UZ Skeet Shoot Tournament. We have only had Polish winners in this event, cXo (2010,2011) and Fruk (2012). Lets see if another nation can step up to the plate! There are 100 slots available though I highly doubt we’ll fill them, surprise me!

The qualifiers will be played on Friday and Saturday, if you want to have a chance of being streamed live on https://www.twitch.tv/urbanzone you can best take a slot between 15:00 and 18:00.

The top 10 will qualify for the Finals on Sunday. This will be played between 15:00 and 18:00 unless your time zone doesn’t permit (Australia for example).
