Competitive Play
Competitive Play is usually linked to the competitive section of the JKA community, in which players play for high score standings or any sort of recognition by their fellow players
ESL
ESL is a European organization in which players from around the world link together and compete on a "play to win" basis. Although involved in numerous games, the ESL presence in JKA gave the game major attention, and for a short bit, created a reason for new players to download the game. However, the ideas that ESL brought along soon came into conflict with the relaxed nature of many players; specifically communities running the popular mod: JA+. This tension has caused numerous clashes in the community, and it still remains a sensitive issue.
