i came up with an idea for a combat tournament during the chat lobby where several players said things about it. here is the suggestion:
*the participating players are arrainged in a Tournament-bracket style.
*the players have to pick ships within the class that the Tournament Director(or moderator/admin whoever wants to do it) chooses. (Note- if participating players cannot get Dreadnoughts, for example, will have to do a Cruiser battle, or whichever class they CAN get)
*no Escort/Pickett Destroyers
*the fights to take place for the Tournament will be in the FleetWars server.
* fight to start at 1000 GU and Jumps no farther than 5000 GU(for the Point Jumping tactic)
*armor/shield Rotation allowed, Cloaking allowed(beacons ARE fair play)
*if there is an uneven amount of players, Byes will be determined according to the layout of the Tournament Brackets.
* the fights are to the death, no escaping from battle. if a player runs from a battle, the player that ran is immediately Disqualified and the other player is awarded the win
* moderator/admins are allowed in Tournament...(STAFF MUST USE LEGAL SHIPS, NO SPECIAL ADMIN STUFF, and even Faustus can play, same rules applies as if he was a regular player!)
*when modding your ships, use faction only technology(IE: what is built in your Factory, Be you a UGTO, ICC, or Kluth)
(if i missed anything, please note in a post)
the awards are as follows:
first place(can be edited/changed by staff if they so desire): 20 Million Credits and 1000 Bonus Prestige
Second place: 10 million credits and 500 Bonus Prestige.
this event is to put some combat fun into the game, which has lacked as of late.

I think up the ante implies that you risk something - nothing ventured, nothing gained type thought. Just winning something isn't really a big challenge.
An entry fee, though... interesting.

Personally I think we should turn on prestige gain/loss in the fleetwars for this event (ONLY while the tourny is going on) and leave the rewards the same, because then the winner will get the bonus of the ships he's killed.
I think this is the first tourny that I actually can get behind. Even with the current bug of things.
An ammendment to the rules I put forth for your consideration when thinking about UGTO and K'Luth ships especially - one, 30 second time out to be used per player per match for the purpose of recharging energy, rotating armor plates, waiting out beacons - etc.
Yes? No? The main reason I put it forth is for UGTO & K'Luth to be able to swap armor plates around due to arc bug, while it is an essential part of combat & doing so under fire is an advanced combat skill to get it into the right slot I think that to get more people interested and wanting to play and give them a chance to get up there more this or something like it should be considered.
Sign me up!

I hereby request that Junky be banned from the tourny, with questions like that I'm not sure he can even figure out how to login.
