CCP Bro is here to tell you all about the tournament schedule, practicing on the test server, and refunding our teams some PLEX. You can find the dev blog here.
Now is the chance to see who your favorite teams will have to take down in order to climb their way to the top. Tell us what you think about our updates and changes to the New Eden Open.

But will CCP Bro comment on important things?
Will there be a proper moustache present?

27 teams, 10 PLEX each, Less than $5000. I doubt that covers the production cost. CCP, is this disappointing? How does it bode for future tournaments of this type?

None of our tournaments have ever covered our production costs with the entry fees. That hasn't stopped us yet.

tbh CCP Dolan and CCP Bro are awesome names.
Other than that I really don't know what to say. I am hoping that this will be epic. Well, I am sure it will be. Also I am sleep deprived.

Since there are "open slots" from teams that didn't fill (32-27 == 5), why not use the 5 open slots for something extra?
Perhaps invite the teams to have multi-team Free-for-alls during the open time slots... With eight starting locations, you could host a small mini-event...
Four 7 team FFA's, where the winners face off in a 4 team FFA. |

That's the idea, provided we don't encounter any evil code gremlins on the way.

Why do some teams get a first round bye this seems really unfair on the other teams
if there are 5 spare teams that means you have 2 pairs and 1 bye not 5 thats ******* ******** |

That sounds good. Thanks you.

Another Question.
If we ask really really nice, give an PLEX to charity (Poor orphans of RvB?) and promise to give a beer to the man in power at fanfest .. would it be possible to change the name of our team?
There was a minor misscommunication between Team <-> Team Captain <-> CCPs petiton.
I don't know the details, but now we are stuck with a name we don't like that much.
I don't know how difficult it is to do that now, but i thought i ask :)
Thank you for your time.

Send in a petition and I'll set you up. You'll at least have the name you want during the actual broadcast, it'll be difficult to change past publications though.

All teams had equal chance of getting a bye. That's fair.
I did not pair up the empty slots as that would allow the winner of the neighboring round 1 match to advance uncontested to round 3. I would much rather have 5 teams skip round 1 than 2 teams skip round 2 and 1 team skip round 1. There's similar effects on the loser's bracket as well, with teams skipping the 2nd round if you pair up the blanks.
To think of it another way, the method we chose returns to normal form after the first round of the winner's and loser's bracket. Pairing blank spots does not return to normal form until round 3.

But, aren't sisi tied with the DUST beta players?, it surely says so when i use that shortcut instead of the ones for Duality or
Buckingham i normally use when i'm not missclicking. |

All Eve players looking to try out our Retribution content or just have some fun in the FFA should use Buckingham as it will have the latest content and we will be providing the most support for those activities there.
Sisi will continue to be hosting Dust 514 on the planets, but the space side of that server is perfectly suited for tournament testing as it will generally be running the same code that the tournament will be held under.

+10 Internets for spelling loser correctly...
In other news, I'm really looking forward to seeing the drama of the tournament unfold. It should be very interesting indeed! |
