I would like a prize, or perhaps a response to an email. Anything other than complete silence would suffice.

Hi Shamis.
I have allready replied to your EVEmail. I see no reason to repeat myself. I am waiting for a list of BPCs you would like.

Ah, so you chose to show your power by making me wait indefinitely for any kind of response. I'm sorry if you don't like me, or my organization, but I tried to be as polite as possible in crafting my response to you, and I think at the very least it deserved a response. Now I see this was a complete waste of time.
It was nice of you to reveal your petty ways on this public forum, so all can see your pathetic lack of professionalism.
Special thanks for depriving us of 40 billion isk on a whim, while simultaneously griefing us with a wall of silence.

Yes, I'm quite overjoyed with the 15 billion worth of prizes. Although this pales in comparison to the 40-60 billion we could've had, it is, as you say technically my fault. My bitterness has a whole lot more to do with Nova's stonewalling of us for 2 weeks while he sat there and laughed at us.

Why bother bringing this to the forums? What do you expect it to achieve?

Had I not brought it to the forums, I'd still be waiting for a response from Nova. Nice try though Trolly Mctrollenstein.

Nova announces prizes: standings increase with a faction. PL: meh that sounds lame, what else can we have. Nova: bpc's . Nova: We're also giving out all these LP's PL: Ok I guess we'll just take the bpc's
a few days before the tourney starts, It was pointed out to me that the LP's were worth way more than the bpc's, so I mailed nova.
PL: Can we champion a faction instead? Nova: No response
Last day of tourney: PL to GM that moved us: "say do you think we can still change to champion a faction?" GM: That shouldn't be a problem.
PL to Nova after taking 2nd place: Hi, can we change to champion a faction? Nova: No, it is too late.
At this point I considered just accepting our fate, but I ran the numbers a few more times, and the amount of isk lost seemed really high. So I tried once more.
PL to Nova: Long eve-mail explaining how much isk we stand to lose by going with the bpc's. Please reconsider, I don't see how it affects anything. Nova: -crickets-
1 week passes
PL to Nova: Did you get that last eve-mail? Nova: -Crickets-
4-5 days later I made this post. And he finally responded as you see above.
I can't really say too much about them not letting us champion a faction, other than that it seems lame, since factions were NEVER mentioned on EVE-TV at all, and only when they posted the prizes in this forum did they make any mention of who chose what faction. But rules are there to be enforced even when it seems unreasonable. So ok, whatever.
But letting us hang there for 2 weeks, trying to keep our patience while Nova just decides he's gonna stop communicating with us completely really irritates me. How the hell can you spend all that time organizing a tournament and not be able to spare 10 seconds to type: "no" in an eve-mail and send it on its way? I guess he was just trying to ignore is in the hopes that we would go away and die. I don't know.
So I guess I'll be sending him the list of bpc's tonight. We'll be lucky if we can make 15 bil off of them.

CCP/EVETV ignoring the IC justification they dreamt up to explain the tournament in favour of lame catchphrases? Inconceivable.

While I understand your frustration and perhaps nova shouldn't have said changing might be possible, you really should have put some thought into the championing thing the LP was a great prize :-/
You could have championed any of the pirate factions and got great implants for all your guys.... But at signup you chose BPC's you really should stick with it. Nobody elses mistake that but yours.

Indeed. Some of the pirate faction's LP's are worth way over 1k isk/LP. Maybe even 2K

All you clever people should probably remember that when signups went live, there were no LP prizes, just a standings boost and no pirate factions were allowed as an option.

10 x 1 run bpc's doesnt justify the amount of time/isk and effort we put into this tournament. Changing the BPC prize to LP's isnt that big a deal and wouldnt affect the outcome of the tournament...why it is mearly a click of the button but that seems to be too hard for a GM nowadays....

Hey Nova why don't you let us see some of that famous CCP transparency and explain why you didn't respond to shamis's email before the tourney.
Its sort of your job, right????? Or is there something else going on that may have altered your decision. How about clearing the air and explaining yourself. If you hate us just say so. I would have a lot more respect for you if you would just give a reason instead of your impersonation of a brick wall. Hiding doesn't do anyone any good.
Oh and i bet this makes people just line up for next years tourney. -
