You've got to see the fact that this opens the door to everyone doing it though. Do you really want to watch that every match?

this is not "in game" this is a tournament.... an out of game "contest" for the alliances.... this has nothing to do with in game.. its totally wrong... CCP expects players to support the tourney and you allow crap like this.

Originally by: CCP Navigator This is why EVE is such a phenomenal sandbox. Players can make agreements and double cross each other in mid game as long as it is within the forum rules set down by CCP Claw and the rest of the tournament organizers.
A bold move by Hydra, in my opinion.
then your rules fail big time. this is the tourney and not eve. in eve i would have been able to travel to the tourney and attack both sides and since i cant do that then this is either not eve or not a sandbox game. did hydra follow the rules? yes. have it ruined the tourney? yes.

Great fight
Who the hell cares how people get the points during qualifiers. Not to mention the tournament point system allows for this kind of strategic decision making. Hydra just sold Agony the chance of making it to the finals, while their chances of getting there are very good regardless if they won or lost, since they killed almost all enemy ships.
The finals have so good rewards and you gain so much prestige from winning, that I don't think anyone can afford to buy their way to victory there and I don't think the opposition is going to make a realistic offer there anyway.

^^ This. The amount of butthurt over what may just be the EVE:iest move ever just makes it more hillarious.
Agony did not buy a victory ù they bought points that probably won't help much considering how much they got spanked. Hydra sold points they didn't need considering what kind of match they'll have next time and how much they spanked in this one. As much as the tournament is EVE combat boiled down and refined; that kind of qualifying-match tactic is EVE politics boiled down and refined.

It's not cheating? This is perfectly within the rules and has been since as far back as I can remember.

There are no rules against bribing wins in semi-finals and finals neither. So don't say it's just limited to points, and not the tournament.

Edit your rules and make it cheating. An isolated event is fun, yes. But imagine if every tournament game is like this.

Edited by: Tiger''s Spirit on 05/06/2010 16:15:33 Oh man this is tournament, not backstabbing, stealing from other teams and spectators. Pure who the best pvpers, not who the best cheaters,exploiters blablabla in the game. I hope next time all team will sold their points and wont fight just selfdestructing.

From an outsiders spectator view I can understand why people would not be happy with this turn of events. On the other hand from an Eve player and fan this is all part of the game and I loved it.

Sure it is. It always has been. This meta-game caper just happened right in front of the camera, unlike some of the things that have happened in the past. ——— “If you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡… you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.” — Karath Piki |

im all for this great move, but having it all go down in the local chat is not cool, teams taking a dive for isk or a deal behind closed doors would be funny to see. but it is a tournament and doing this out in the open takes way from the sport of it.isk for kills is ok but if u move before the timer hits 0 Claw will smash you, crazy.

/me laughs at the commentator who is so up HYDRA's ass. Apparently all the other alliances are **** compared to HYDRA? Thats just the impression he must give off with his arrogant smugness.
Good job regardless, made for great lols.

it makes perfect sense why they did it.
they got money, the owned.. the got a lot of points, and by forfeiting the match, they made it easier for them to get into the finals.
it happens a lot in professional tournament bracket sports, so why not eve :) |

It's gamesmanship -- winning the meta-game even if you lose the immediate aspect.
If *you* were the general facing those guys, could you honestly say you'd know what their battle-plan was ?

This. It was a neat move, and part of what makes this game so interesting month after month, year after year.
