Please can the participants read thisFor your information, Regulus & Sargon will be here to help in any way or take over if life throws those unexpected curve balls at me! - Thanks as always guys, much appreciated.
This is nothing to do with Pandas - I repeat nothing to do with Pandas
Based on what i've seen on the PVP forum so far, Mini's survey, Novalus' suggestions, CSI 's & TFS's lead, and also trying not to fall into the same pitfalls sadly the mentioned fleets / people fell into, I want to host a Space PVP tournament for all in and out of the PVP community.
I am going to keep the rules simple.
01. Have fun - Most important
02. No siphon drones and danubes (Not fun and skillfull)
03. No more than 3 of the same captains or ship types
04. No Boarding Parties (Broken)
05. No Dkora EMP burst (Broken)
06. No scramble sensors with the DOFFs (Without DOFFs no issue)
07. No Grav Pulse (AOE 50 second hold not fun)
08. Once you are in 1 team an have played, you cannot move to another
09. Temporal Inversion not allowed
10. Tachyon MinesReward: Knowing you are the victor and vast amounts of fun.
All I'm gonna ask for is put your team down
Rules may and will change based on the latest TRIBBLE up by STO :0
There is not going to be a debate of any description
All I will say is I will be extremely fair
Please Put down your name / Fleet / Team in this thread and nothing else.
If you dont like the rules, please don't derail the thread and you dont need to participate if you dont like the rules.
Thanks in advance and remember, we are here to have fun. Forget the bad blood of the past and aim for the fun PVP bit which we are all looking for.
Time & location finalised:
The tournament will be held on 6th April 2013 - Time 9pm GMT

Fully rainbow turret-ed out, of course.
Because use of the restricted abilities makes it not fun for the opposing team.

You would say that when you got hit with a 30s gravity pulse... and clear it... and get hit with a 40s Gravity Pulse... and have a team mate clear it... and get hit with another 30s Gravity pulse ?
I think not.
Restricting the anti fun is logical.
Are you really saying you would like to use anything on Nazs list ?
Never faced them, dont know how bad it can be, but im having fun with my friends so have no opinion.
3. No more than 3 of the same captains or ships
I enjoy my fleet defiant, my bug ship, my dreadnaught carrier and several other ships so this doesnt phase me that much. Any of my ships will perform well.
4. No Boarding Parties (Broken)
Dont think this is actually broken and can be easily removed with tac teams.
5. No Dkora EMP burst (Broken)
Ive never seen this do anything other than look pretty... meh
6. No scramble sensors with the DOFFs (Without DOFFs no issue)
no opinion
7. No Grav Pulse (AOE 50 second hold not fun)
grav pulse, referring to gravity well? I can counter this, in about 3 different ways.
Grav pulse is similarly countered, in multiple ways.
8. Once you are in 1 team, you cannot move to another
This i understand.
Also, if your trying to remove annoyances, or OP stuff... I see nothing about no plasma builds, or romulan builds, or clusters, transphasics or any of the other OP annoying TRIBBLE that can pop up.

That doesn't sound like fun....
Ill share my build secrets with all my teammates, doesnt need to be on a dreadnaught either... caitian, armitage, bug... the list goes on.

8. Did i mention "Have fun"?
it always Bs no boarding party not broken
emp burst not broken
no scramble sensor with doff cause it add 10 sec to your power really." the issue is, if it works, it ruins the fun" from 1911
I " things that hurts healer ships are out wow it always be bs.\
another fail pvp tournament. what happen to the real pvp players?
good point
???question??? is five ships carrying extends still being allowed???
cross healing is one thing but 2 bug ships a wells an orb and a recluse with a total of 8 extends seems exploiting when a bug ship needs extends 1 more then reverse shields 1
rules ? are you for real ? that not fun that's a way to benefit your team an auto win . least that is what i get out of having rules specially when NO ONE can agree on any rules set forth . any thing and every thing in the game can be used cause imo it is all broken lol and can be used to some advantage
i do find it very funny tho that those fleets who power trip are the ones who have to have a tourny set up . how can it be fun when all you care about is winning ?
Unfortunately, I don't think that's good advice anymore. For feds, any fleet outside of Sad Pandas, Inner Circle, TSI, or Turkish RP Heroes isn't likely to teach good habits. Orion Slave Girls' PvP section is arguably the only decent Klingon team. Go outside of those fleets, and it's the blind leading the blind. However, on the fed side at least, none of the those fleets are likely to recruit newbies (Pandas is a possible exception, as we tend to recruit more on maximum potential than current ability). It's a tough spot to be in.
dont forget this if your not part of the elite fleet you cant join the pvp tournament
Priceless
For those of you who want to participate, send me an in game mail as it will be too hard for me to collect team names.
Hopefully, we will have some form of tournament.....
WELP.
