Something the experts always spend a lot of time talking about off camera during the tournament is potential rules changes. I know everyone has good ideas and I'm curious about what they are!
Some requirements to keep in mind:
-We can't have a format with multiple grids. This would be ideal because pvp on TQ is rarely confined to an "arena" but in the tournament viewability is the number one priority.
-We can't be required to lock new ships mid-match. The camera ships have to stay cloaked during the match so they don't disrupt the teams in the competition in any way and locking mid-match would require uncloaked camera ships.
-No capitals. Its feasible that caps could play some kind of support role but in almost every imaginable application they would just be boring and pointless.
-It needs to be fun to watch!
Excited to hear your ideas. -Kil2
ps - this thread is in no way endorsed, supported, or read by actual tournament organizers so don't get your hopes up If theres something amazing though, I can pay Raivi in Hydra related intel to make him convince CCP by force.

Thanks guys.
Keep it coming. I'm hoping to consolidate a lot of the good stuff from here with some of our own discussions and submit some kind of proposal before we leave iceland.
Again, in the end the tournament organizers here can do whatever they want, but I think they will value our input.

good stuff guys.

Finally, going back to the unique themes, last year somebody said a tournament inside the various wormholes would be interesting;
This is something that keeps coming up. One thing i dont like about it is the idea of not knowing what kind of wormhole effect you would have for a match. it would add randomness to the results and i dont think we need that.
what if there was a different effect assigned to each day of the tournament? everyone knew what to expect but we would see entirely different types of stuff on each day.
I think the biggest problem with that is that seeing the setups evolve over the course of the tournament is fun, and that would be diminished to an extent. i guess teams also wouldnt be as motivated to hold back their really strong stuff until later. but then again that takes away an element of the tournament that we struggle to make guesses about currently.
anyway, thanks all. glad some pros stopped by =)
