The official forums are dead (see the amount of users and visitors in comparison to ESR, that has always at least 10x) and no one reads the official fb page nor its twitter. With that said, the way to advertise is on the game itself.
Doesn't take much job really. It's only adding a community news bar on top of the server browser (a one liner) and a new section on the game with an embed stream (copy-pasting from twitch.tv), considering someone else already does the weekly tournament lists with stream info, sign ups and all.
I find amazing that QL manages to get 2.5.k viewers on a thursday on a regular online cup without advertising outside of a community page.
