Dear PvP commununity,
For the first time after the LoR update and due to the success of the 2 previous tournaments Inner Circle has decided to organize another tournament!
Special Thanks goes to to the teams who participated in the last No BS tournament and especially to @ilhansk who took it upon himself to organize it. Nice job !!
Due to many changes, new equipment and the new romulan race as a playable faction we had the idea to bring up a new set of rules that might be interesting and perhaps remind of the old times of PvP before
Season 7.
All playable factions (Klingons, FEDs and Romulans) can take part on it.
The following rules with additional explanation are listed below:
1. No clickable universal consoles:
No clickable abilities granted by universal consoles are allowed to be used. This includes consoles from the exchange, lobi store, C-Store and from lockbox ships. You may equip the consoles (for possible passive boosts), but executing a clickable ability granted by a universal console is prohibited. Clickable set bonus abilities are not permitted. Universal consoles that grant passive abilities (for example the Assimilated module, or Plasmonic Leech) may be used.
2. No use of integrated ship cloaks (battle cloak and advanced battle cloak):
You may use ships that have innate cloaking, but you may not use the build-in cloaking abilities. So called secondary cloaking abilities that are not ship-specific, like the romulan T5 Reputation ability or "Mask Energy Signature", are allowed.
3. Temporal Inversion Field is not allowed
4. No Scramble Sensors with doffs (The ability itself is no issue)
5. No Advanced or Yellowstone Runabouts/Interceptors/Romulan Drone ships of the new Scimitar carrier (Scramble Spam)
6. No Nukara Mines
7. No Boarding parties:
In addition the actual Boarding Party Bridge Officer ability, pets that are using Boarding party are also prohibited.
Each team should consist of no more than 3 of the same type of captains and/or ships.
Once u are in a team and have played, you cannot move to another one.
Run of the tournament:
The competition will be divided into 2 phases: The group stage and the knockout-round.
In the group phase each team has to play his opponents twice (first leg, second leg), hence each team is going to play at least 6 matches. Match duration will be 15 minutes during the group phase. Once the group phase is finished the first 2 teams of each group is going to qualify for the ko-round to give more fleets the chance to reach the next round.
The match duration of the quarter - and semi-finals will be 30 minutes, only the finale match and the match for the third place will last 45 min. During the knockout-phase, In case of a draw during the predefined regular time, "Golden Goal" rule applies: next kill determines the winner.
Reward for the winner: Becoming famous!!
The most important thing is not to win but to take part and to have fun. Show that u are part of the PvP-Community and participate!
If u want to join simply contact me in-game (@usshannibal) or comment this thread.
Please put down the name of your team/fleet nothing else.
If u dont like the rules, please dont derail the thread !!
The tournament will presumably begin on Saturday, 10th August - Time 19.00 UTC
and it will be continued on Sunday, 11th August 2013 at the same time.

LOL @ "Classic" Event.

2010: This is Cryptic PvP. Please hold the line, your call is very important to us...
You the op need to explain why the pandas were excluded the first time around when they clearly had asked for a spot before most of these of teams did.
If on the other hand you're going to "pick and choose" who takes part in an event then for gods sake don't use the event name they created! Be original and make your own.
Do you even Science Bro?
Rumour has it you been hard at recruiting players into your fold
Let it slide Mai......

I think you may know a few of them, actually. Just in passing...
TRIBBLE off Pascal, we get that Eryon doesn't PvP anymore, have the good grace to at least leave events to those of us that do.

So you're going to run a Pandas team under the banner of Lag Industries? That's kinda lame
@DevolvedOne
Eh? The more the merrier.
Well, it's not that I mind so much since I never had a problem with Pandas playing in the first place. I think it's a bit...umm...cowardly and dishonest for a team/fleet that already has a premade and has agreed to play in the tourney to outsource their tourney team to a completely different team/fleet. I think they would want to stand on their own to represent their fleet in the tourney, but I guess the rules were too strict for them and they couldn't figure out how to adjust their builds. If they didn't like the rules, which Lag Ind. made clear from the beginning, then they shouldn't have agreed to play. I've never had any problems and have nothing against Lag Ind., but I can't say I agree with this underhanded maneuvering.
@DevolvedOne
I believe there is some argument on that... I think a few teams where signed up before they agreed to participate. lol
I love how you try to turn this around though... the Pandas offered to play on like the first page of the old thread and where denied. Who are the true cowards here ?
I understand there has been some controversy around 1 or 2 of there members... however how many fleets don't have at least one or two controversial members. lol
I won't try to do anything to derail this thread for them... but there rules are still a joke... and they still made sure the fleet that started these no BS tournaments couldn't participate. Of course they are the cowards.... for finding a way to play anyway... ok then.
The Irony in this thread is so thick.
Well, let me just tidy that edited mess up that you're slowly trying to re-tweek.
-We never signed up. Nor did FES, Risa Squadron and any of the other first eight or so fleets that were originally listed, the names were just automatically added. Do I know why? Nope, but I can hazard a guess. If you weren't aware of that then I suggest you fact up.
-Of course we can follow the rules. They're awful rules but it's not like we're banging rocks together here. Who we pick for our team regardless of who runs the tournaments and who was deliberately not allowed to take part is our business. I wasn't aware you had a seat on that. Do you know the reasoning? I doubt it, but i'm glad you're so willing to starting throwing mud and debasing people around you regardless. Fact up.
-I can assure you, our team is full Lag Industries. If it was otherwise I'd have Hannibal rename it "Sad Lag'pandustries" to make it clear for people like you who need labels on everything or they get confused.
-As always Devolved, your wealth of hard fact and obvious impartiality of opinion does you wonders.

Well it's not like I have anything to do with organizing this tourney. I have never had a problem with Pandas playing in this tourney so I fail to see the irony. I just think it's kinda lame and dishonest to outsource your team whether it be to Pandas or UFP. I'm not sure how Lag Ind. were signed up, but if they didn't want to play they've had plenty of time to back out. Oh well, I look forward to playing against Lag Pandas.
@DevolvedOne
If someone wants to be involved, great. If someone doesn't like the event, they can steer clear of both the event and this thread.
Captains, please stop posting off-topic rants.

the more I look at this the more I see it as a NO Cloakers/Drones BS tournament with a fixation on the Cloaking and the Drones... I could live with the other rules and participate but these 2 right here are the deal breaker for me.... everyone seems to be afraid of anything that cloaks or scrambles.....
I.R.W. Raptor's Claw
Storm Eagle Class Warbird Fleet Ha'feh
I have never trusted humans, and I never will
This was my problem with the 2nd No BS tournament. Don't call it a No BS tournament when it is obviously a Fed only tournament Pre LOR.
Think about this:
American Football has been in open beta for 144 years. ~Kotaku
Do whatever it takes to win, thqt has always been the strength of an individual player and team.
Use Every Pixel at your Disposal Eh?
Though I personally won?t be playing in this tournament I can see why the rules are the way they are and also why some people don?t like them.
Rules Like no Cloak or Clickable Consoles Level the playing field slightly One ahem Two Shot Kills From Cloak my not make a fun Tournament environment for some people and the fact there is restrictions on consoles up to a point where everyone Shouldn?t feel they are just as outmatched because they didn?t buy X Item.
On the other side the restrictions mean people can?t play with their Favourite Toys that they Love, if I were playing I would have to get used to flying an Unseaparated MVAM hehe
Hopefully I will do some Coverage on this for the next episode of Make It STO
Below is the link to a little promo I made to get everyone in to high spirits before the tournament starts! Hope you enjoy, many thanks!

I like it
@DevolvedOne
You just dont see it do you? Restrictions this broad in scope can only mean one thing...
Just wait and see how it will turn out.
The other teams have had plenty of advance notice to practice their setups. It's up to them to rise to the challenge.
It looks like space-Hunger Games
