You two Nooey and Shemar makes me laugh  , whom wins or looses i don't care about. But the spectacle will be worth watching, just for the entertainment value.
Keep it a good clean fight..

Would the GLS confirm how much the ticketĘs to see this event would be? Furthermore, would they also confirm if the video will be available for research and training purposes with third party broadcasters and whether such footage would be authorised for use in third party advertising campaigns? Also one last query, could you confirm that this event is scheduled for 20:00 Eve Standard time?
With Nooey's acceptance I can now move on to the business side of things.
Event tickets will cost 50000 ISK. The price includes access to the GLS dueling channel where the final location of the duel will be announced as well as all communication between participants and observer will take place. I am also working on commentators and news coverage which will also be included with no additional cost.
The event will become available in holoreel format, for private usage, for the price of 10000 ISK. Commercial use (such as 3rd party advertising) will require additional licensing. Educationl use is free.
The event is nominally scheduled for next Sunday, 20:00 EVE Stadard time, as our research indicates that particular time is conductive to peak audiences. A specific date and time as well as the general area of the duel will be announced 24 hours prior to the event.
Thank you for your interest.

When your crew are floating lifelessly in the void, take a moment to realise that it was your incessant drivel, your unrelenting need to voice your opinion negatively in affairs that don't even involve you at all that was responsible. (And that Babs, is all you need to really know, surprised it even needed pointing out.)
So who died and made you the arbitrator of who gets to post, what they can comment on and how often they can comment on it?
There are a lot of things that get said on here that I don't particularly care for, but I'd defend to my last breath people's right to say it.

Since most of you do not get the joke or did not bother to read the duel rules, let me inform you that the duel will take place in a high security system. So in the event that Nooey wins, firing at my pod would be most entertaining, hence my offer to give him 5 million ISK if he does so.
If the "duel" is going to be in a high security system how are you going to prevent Concord Battleships interfering with the fighting the moment the first shot is fired?

If you had bothered to read the duel procedure you would know that it involves looting bookmarks off each other's jet cans to artificially induce CONCORD sanctioned aggression.

Matter of honor? Oh please. There is no honor in a man who resorts to violence because he got a wild hair up his nose about somebody else. You lost whatever speck of moral high ground you may have at one time ever claimed to possess as soon as you made a public spectacle out of yourself. Does the EVEMail transmitter on your ship not function properly and you were unable to contact Shemar directly?
Also spare us your crocodile tears on the subject of Shemar's crew...if you cared a whit about their lives, you wouldn't have embarked on this fool's errand in the first place.
It doesn't matter whose ship explodes, Nooey has already lost.

Gaius has the best point here so far, of course. Less entertaining, but more sense.
Please could the gentlemen consider dueling in frigates? Aren't duels an old-fashioned concept enough without risking lives?

I understand your reservations Elsebeth. Unfortunately, frigates are too fragile and fickle and often the winner is determined by luck, instead of skill and tactics, as the duel does not last long enough.
I assure you that every possible precausion has been taken to minimize the loss of life. The event will take place in a high security system where medical and resque services will be able to be on standby in great numbers. Additionally both participants have the option to yield or warp away forfeiting the duel but preserving the lives of their crew.
Additionally, given the very short duration of the event and the lack of need for long term ship maintenance and quality of life services, most of my crew will be evacuated to the nearest space station, with only a handful of volunteers tasked with critical duties during combat remaining on board. I assure you that having talked to them, not a single one of them would have it any other way.
Finally, according to the agreed upon rules, I am announcing the ship type of my choice. I will fight in a Thorax class cruiser. I am eagerly awaiting Nooey's choice.

I'd love for you to be there too Elsebeth, but I understand the security risks, not to mention that the work you are doing is far more important than this.
Should you decide that you can attend (maybe through the use of a cloaked vessel) I will provide you with a VIP pass, naturally.

Well Nooey, escrow me Shemar's frozen corpse when you're done and I'll gladly pay 20 million credits to add it to Veto's corporate meat locker.
I'd like to see a recording of this fight too, to be honest.
Would be... interesting... to say the least...

in a frigate you'd have to rely on having some actual ability, rather than mwd on, blasters on, mwd off, release drones, web scramble.
Because ofcourse, that's the definition of modern tactics, hey Shemar?
As for any concerns regarding my crew, i normally pilot an interceptor for that precise reason.
Shemar, you made your own bed. Hell, after Nooey kills you, maybe i'll come kill you myself. Maybe i'll promote him, for doing the Intergalactic Summit a service, and shutting your mouth.
We'll see, i suppose.

For a group that pretends to be about actions and not words you sure talk a lot about what you would like to do.
Still waiting for Nooey to declare his ship of choice, as per the rules. I would hate to see him forfeit on a technicality.

The rules he agreed to. Any failure to comply is an automatic forfeit. If he had any objections he should have stated them before accepting:

I prefer that the participants declare their ship selections prior to fitting, but if Nooey does not want that, fine with me.
Originally by: Nooey
I really don't care about conditions.
...
Consider this my official acceptance Shemar. On one simple condition, since you have so many of your own.
As far as I am concerned it is clear he accepted all conditions. It would be interesting to see if he uses that as a way to back out of the duel...

Some old-fashioned duelling!
It's sounds almost like a scene from a holo-reel -- all we're missing is Johnny D. Wrayne doing his famous micro-jump attack. "Drone this, pilgrim!" (Hehe, loved those old holoreels when I was a kid. Best stuff ever to come out of the Gallentean movie network if you ask me.)
Would love to see this in person, but alas I'm a poor girl, got to work to keep my ship fuelled, no time for running off watching spectacles. I'd love a broadcast though although I don't think my gold feed subscription include the Glamour Syndicate holofeed by default. Haven't the infolink at hand right now -- how's your coverage into Minmatar space, Mr Shemar?

Ms. Starkiel,
This event will be available for live broadcast in all areas the GEN (the Glamour Entertainment Network) is available and that includes Minmatar space. It will be however a Pay-Per-View service and not part of the regular GEN subscription, save the Premium package.
It will also be available, in a future date in holoreel format.
Thank you for your interest

"As far as I am concerned it is clear he accepted all conditions. It would be interesting to see if he uses that as a way to back out of the duel..."
I see him agree on the stated conditions. Which include "participants may choose to disclose their ship selection, but don't have to".
And out of you two, i only see one person already talking about the duel not happening due to technicalities, and that person is not Nooey.
"Just in case there is any confusion I will elaborate on that. The official GLS dueling rules for ship selection state: (..) They can also decide whether they are to disclose their choices prior to fitting or not.""
I marked the relevant part there for you, for easier reading.
It says "they" can decide (on their own, respectively) not "one of participant decides for both".
In addition, you said yourself earlier in the very post i linked to: "I prefer that the participants declare their ship selections prior to fitting, but if Nooey does not want that, fine with me."
Seems you're changing your mind rapidly on the matter as the time approaches and push is about to come to shove. How... Gallente.
"Nooey agreed to all the conditions, including all my preferences regarding optional rules."[/i]
He agreed on duel conditions. Your preferences though aren't part of it but merely that, your personal preferences. And the very rules you cite allow each participant to have their own preference that doesn't affect the other.

And i suppose possessing the ability to back our actions up with words would qualify us as not really being about actions and not words?
Save your breath, wouldn't want you to run out before you can say your last words.

Please don't make this about nationality j0sephine. I am a Gallente (albeit a posthuman revolutionary guerilla anarchist gallente) but I'm just as unimpressed by the wriggling and pathetic legalistic manouverings as you are.
Just fight the man Shemar. Turn up in whatever ship you want to fly. Nooey turns up in whatever ship he wants to fly - warp to a planet and finish the thing. Demanding to know his ship choice before the duel is weak.
