All implants are allowed, sensor boosters are allowed (duh).
t2 guns and launchers are allowed, only the ammo isn't.
t2 drones are allowed

Why allowing Target Painters? IIRC its the minnie Electronic Warfare, and only their ships would have bonuses for fitting those.
Either allow all races EW, or dont allow at all.
I say allow them, it would allow the usage of counter tactics like ECCM (which is usually useless in fleet battles, but might not be here).
Makes perfect sense to allow Target painters, they're not even remotely comparable to tracking disruptors, ECM and RSD, if you want to ban them you might as well ban webifiers and nosferatu too.

Heh I think the main reason faction ships are allowed is that it's more fun to see them blow up 
I think implants are allowed in part due to it being a huge hassle for the Tournament staff to check everyone for them, and a hassle for everyone to get a jump clone specifically for tournament, and this is an alliance tournament, so you have an alliance's resources behind you. So them being expensive isn't much of an excuse. 
As to capital ships; "Each alliance will be allowed one frigate, on destroyer, one cruiser, one battlecruiser and one battleship." I think they'd be on that list if they were allowed

I think KAOS made it to the finals before using a faction BS last time.. I might just be remembering things wrong, but I think they didn't use a navy issue until the final match or maybe the semi-final...
My point is, your strategy is much more important than the size of your wallet. Sure implants and faction BS are an advantage, but neither will win the Tournament for you, and it's quite possible to win without them.
But apart from all that, what kind of sad alliance can't afford a faction BS for its team ?

Without crystal implants I doubt BoB would've used an eagle at all, but if they had used the same strategy and ships they wouldn't have made it to the finals, and the finals were a really really close match so no they wouldn't have won that match without them.
Anyways, already been talked over lots, implants are in for good :)

I like 100 km radius.
Makes for more interesting matches when people are pretty much restrained to staying within locking range of each other. Would be pretty annoying (and very boring) if people could just mwd out of targeting range and spam missiles... (Not to mention how it would unbalance things what with t2 ammo not being allowed)

Mang0o; ?? faction BS are allowed fyi
TheMantisCH; I rather doubt CCP have any way of checking who's in your gang, and not as if it'll make enough difference for anyone to care ;p
Now if spectator could be in a command ship with 3 gang modules active that'd make a big difference  But can't do that since he has to be cloaked

- I don't like the whole "cheaper setup/ship" wins concept, a 1v1 duel or one side simply conceding the match sounds fine to me. Maybe let the competing parties choose what kind of duel they want..
I don't particularly expect a situation like that to come up tho ;p
- No point at all in blowing up ships if they haven't warped out / gone out of arena.

Tournament fighting is not the same thing as TQ PvP, allowing EWAR would make the Tournament boring and very stupid. If that isn't a good reason not to allow them then I don't know what is..
If you think in its current form it's just about ISK and skillpoints you don't have a clue

I did read the entire thread before posting. There wasn't a single good argument (sic GOOD argument) for disallowing certain ECM mods. Besides, by allowing only certain ECM like painters and webbers you are specifically disadvantaging Minmatar ships who overall has smaller sigs and faster ships. You don't need a painter to hit another raven or mega for full damage with a torp, but u need a painter to hit a minmatar BS for full damage with a T1 Torp because of sig size.
It looks more like whoever is making up the rules has already decided what their "perfect dps platform" is and is trying to limit any possible threat to it.
Ignoring your paranoid ranting, the reasons ECM wasn't allowed are incredibly obvious to anyone who has pvped much, maybe you enjoy describing very simple things to the blind, but that doesn't apply to everyone. (Hence why I'm not going to explain it to you.)
Oh and disadvantage for Minmatar ? The race that gets bonuses to both target painters and webifiers ? Guess it cancels out then doesn't it.

The loot is for the winner Cathryn, at least it was last time and I see no reason for them to change it this time.
However you won't have a very long time to pick the cans up since they tend to be impatient about TRing you out afterwards

Was pretty lame how some people got their sec status repaired last time, but GMs said no to me
But I'm pretty sure it'll be in real 0.0 this time, so won't be an issue.

Haha bribery would be hilarious, and totally in the spirit of EVE.
I hope someone does try to rig the competition
That's one of the reasons I wish someone would take bets on individual matches, then one would have the option of betting on the other side and throwing the match for great wealth
