The event should've been held in late August with more than 400 gamers attending but yet again an event will be stopped due to the school shootings and it's after-effects in Germany. The politicians of Baden-Württembergs town Karlsdorf-Neuthard will not allow the event to play so called killer games such as "Warcraft III" and Counter-Strike which leads to the cancellation of the whole event.

The event organisers have announced they are currently looking for another location where they can hold their events in the future and they will also transfer back all the money people have paid for signing up. In stark comparison it is reported that from August 8th to 9th the same town will hold their shooting contests at the local gun club for kids below the age of 14.

Earlier this year the Friday Night Games of the ESL Pro Series in Stuttgart, Karlsruhe and Nuremberg were also banned for quite the same reason. It looks like there are still hurdles to overcome between the German politicians and competitive gaming.
