The coverage of the CPL qualifier in Istanbul is pretty poor, but ill try to get as much information sorted as possible.

Due to the framerate problems while recording demos with the 1.61 version, no demos are being recorded.

Furthermore the tournament PCs seem to be pretty bad. Running bad framerates and bad graphics on Geforce 5500 cards. Apparantly the shuttles normally used at the CPL got stopped by customs.
