Notification
This is inter-fleet sign up thread for the upcoming tournament that is gonna be in 7th June.
5th June is optional in case some of the fleet are more weekday players and not weekend players.
Thus each fleet will state which date best suits them.
As for refeere, each fleet has decide which one of their guys will also be refeere.
Refeere will be put on different matches.
Several of us are also working on Live Twitch matches for upcoming tournament.
Everyone will have 2 weeks to prepare and train for the tournament, in the meantine if some members won't be manage to participate, replacement can be added.
It would be good to join JF Inter-Fleet channel, for easier communication between multiple fleets.

No time-limit?
Yellowstones allowed?
No captain reglementation, so can run 5 tacs?
No limitation of the same ships in 1 team?
5x AMS allowed?
Scramble Sensors+Doff allowed?
As many cloakers in 1 team as u want?
Console swapping allowed?
.....if thats really it, RE won't take part, and lots of other teams won't either.
You should absolutely reconsider your rules.
Sorry,but we do plan to make it fun event,rather than super restrictive.
We ain't hardcore pvpers nor pvp fleet,this is fun,social and challenge tournament.
It also helps with better fleet relations within multiple fleets.
We do will have Refeeres in matches,ones who will observe.
Still,we can add like no 5x AMS and minor changes to the rules.
But doffs,yellowstone,basicaly you are restricting people playing with ships they want(Vesta,Galaxy X,Caitian Carrier,etc).
Plus there is also a word called "adapt".
..cause otherwise you would know that lots of these rules I suggested, are very important..
..if you want to make it a "fun event".
I really want to help you here...not complaining...in the end you can do what u want...its your tournament.
But please take some advice.....I'm sure in a few days you will see more and more posts about the rules in this thread. I'm not alone with these thoughts.
If you really don't add any of my suggestions to the rules...you will defenitly have less not more teams taking part.
And secondly if you stick to your rules...most of the participants/teams won't have any fun at all.
Because there will be very very likely 1-3 teams who will happily prey on your ignorance and come up with crazy super spam exploit team-setups, nobody will have fun playing against. And 'adaption' won't help you.
Trust me please, or go ask other players who know team pvp really well....they will probably confirm what I'm saying here.
As my fellow fleetmate told we are not a pvp fleet so we appreciate some advice regarding the rules. So after your input we are now adding some additional rules.
No time-limit? Yes
Yellowstones allowed? No
No captain reglementation, so can run 5 tacs? Max 3 of each proffesion.
No limitation of the same ships in 1 team? No
5x AMS allowed? 1 per team
Scramble Sensors+Doff allowed? Yes.
As many cloakers in 1 team as u want? Max 3 per team
Console swapping allowed? Yes
Thank you for your input.

and with this update your tournament dies. rules aren't always about broken/unbroken, sometimes they are about fun. SS + DOFFs is a fun-killer, nobody likes 7 minute cooldowns on 15s abilities (when stacked with TIF and SNB). Console swapping was labelled an exploit by Adjudicator Hawk on this very sub-forum... wow, have fun guys, I'll be skipping this one.
the other adjustments of the rules are okay...
but to forbid console swapping would be one of the most important rules...otherwise the tournament is still going to be a mess...I can tell u..
