A pro-celebrity death-match challenge is hereby made to;
ôTankCEOö of Biomass Cartel (Foresaken Alliance)
from
ôTankukö of Cyberdyne Industries (New Venal Alliance)
The terms of the challenge are as follows;
Tankuk is tired of the uncertainty surrounding the reputation of Tank ôthe gankö CEO, and wishes to settle the argument about which of the two armoured fighting vehicles of Eve is the greatest PvP fighter.
It is hereby suggested that a neutral 0.0 system be selected, wherein the two ôtanksö will join a gang and battle it out to the death to determine which of the two is literally; ôtop tankö of the Eve star cluster.
Rules to include;
1. No interference in the fight from any outside agency is to be permitted.
2. An unarmed second from each camp to be allowed to remain to proximity as witness to ensure that fair play is observed.
3. We suggest that Archain of the Space Invaders might be selected as an observer to film the ôclash of the tanksö for posterity and general amusement.
4. All legal layouts and module/weapon combos allowed. No quarter is to be asked or given. Logging off; fleeing the field; or misc. cowardice is to be considered admission of defeat and abandonment of name and honour.
5. Both participants must pre-publish the ships they intend to use in the battle, and only arrive at the scene of the contest in the pre-publicised ship class.
6. The battle will begin at 100km range with the signal from both seconds - and will continue to the bitter end.
7. Since this is to be contest of arms and vigorous martial courage it is asked that profane smack talk be minimised and the focus remain of pure destructive engagement until conclusion.
So, at this time we await response from the TankCEO camp, as to their manÆs acceptance of this challenge.
Until them, I leave you,
Love and peace (and the clash of the titanic tanks)

I am instructed to respond to mr "Tank" CEO thuswise;
There can be no restrictions on the loadout since it limits the flexibility and uncertainty of the engagement. There must be risk ... for there to be worth and honour in the fight.
Also we cannot allow you to choose the system. Though we will permit your second to negotiate with our second on the selection of venue.
So .. a response mr Tank CEO?

In response to TankCEO ... there are no rules of challenge m'dear in the court of public opinion.
You have been offered an entirely fair 1v1 contest of skill and combat talent.
Everyone can see that.
You may of course turn away and walk from the challenge ... that is your right.
But you may have to live with the laughter and jeers of the crowd ringing in your ears for a while yet.
Tankuk has told me he doesn't care whether he wins or if he loses ... he just wants to fight you by the terms expressed.
PS
To the chap that suggested it be done on Chaos.
Are you souless?
The spice of this fight is in the risk of Tank CEO's ship and implants ;)
Courage demands risk as a pre-requisite!

I can guess why Tank CEO wants no ECM ... its quite simple actually.
Since he "Tank the Gank" almost certainly has more skill points than our Tankuk ... without the uncertainly of ecm interaction in the fight the result would almost certainly go to Tank CEO given 2 uber setup damage dealers.
For example, in a straight Raven tank vs raven tank gunnery duel an extra 5% here and there on missiles and trajectory analysis will add up, and provide the man with the greater skill points a decisive advantage.
With no limits ECM possible however, Tank CEO would have to cover his bases more fully and take a risk with his setup.
But of course as we all know,
TankCEO isn't a man for taking risks...
Ah well, the fact remains - a fair challenge has been made.
Whether it is accepted or not is up to Tank CEO.
PS
Did you say something relevent Viceroy?
Like I said before in Foresaken Channel, I am speaking to the organ-grinder not the monkey...

Damn viceroy, your first post was irrelevent but your second just kinda finesses waste of space with snazzy street pazzazz ;)
End of the day chaps this was a challenge to a straight fight 1v1 legal setups only.
It was a fair challenge.
Only a total muppet could deny that.
And all else is crazy desperate reaching.
If TankCEO doesn't want to fight with ecm allowed then he is completely within his rights to decline the challenge.
And that appears to be what he has done.
And jash please, don't give me a load of old hooey about duelling rules.
This is more akin to a professional boxing match.
You don't say "oh yeah, because I was challenged I insist no uppercuts allowed"
seriously.

TankCEO honestly, I'm not going to insult you very much for walking away from this. I know that your Biomass chaps are very scared of Tankuk ... and its unfair of me to press the issue.
But please.
Say you don't want to fight ... fine.
But don't tell me straight 1v1 no module limitations in a neutral system starting at 100km with seconds to adjudicate is ...
"unfair".
Its painfully "fair".
If you don't like the terms don't accept.
But don't try bending the truth like some amateur viceroy dancing for comedic effect.
Its "fair".
face the facts m'dear.

Calm down tank CEO ...
Nobody is insulting your manhood ... much.
I'm not claiming to know anything about PvP ...
But I do know about fair terms.
And you have been offered fair terms.
If you don't want to accept, fair enough, the challenge was made.
All I want you to admit here and now.
Was that the challenge was fair and balanced and entirely unbiased.
Can you admit that to me?

Did you not understand the question ?
Or does the word "fair" not mean "equal and balanced" in the dictionary of TankCEO
I don't (to be frank) give a rats ass about your preferences re ECM ...
I do want you to admit that you received a "fair" challenge.
That only way you can deny this, is to tell me here and now why the challenge as stated, was "unfair" to one of the participants.
Can you do that?

to the general wave of muppet bandwagon jumpers in the audience.
1.Tankuk asked me to write the challenge for him.
2. He asked me to specify those terms publicly.
3. The terms offered were "fair"
4. Nobody here has contradicted point 3 in a meaningful way.
5. Viceroy is a posting meaningless nonsense.
6. Tankuk simply wanted a fight.
7. Since Tankuk has now agreed with Tank CEO's revisions their is no disagreement.
Everyone leaping on the bandwagon to take a swipe at me, at the NVA, or at whatever should take a long hard look at themselves in the mirror.
Your nonsense hate and pitiful ego-crises are making you post rubbish.
Honestly, If I can't post a public challenge at the request of a friend in-game and then support the contention that the challenge was "fair" (which it undoubtedly was) against the contention that it was not (which is nonsense)
Without being multiply-flamed by space invaders, biomass, and assorted alts ... then this is a sad state of play.
Grow up you morons!

Read the post above this.

let the 2 tanks talk it out, and you sit up there in your station wondering who you can scam next
What does that mean? If its some kind of slur to say that I have behaved dishonesty in game and ripped people off then you can **** yourself frankly.

Tankuk agreed with the challenge doc. He was of course entirely within his rights to accept the counter proposal.
The reason I argued with TankCEO for 4 pages was because of his crazy assertion that the challenge as set wasn't "fair".
That was the point I was nailing him on.
And then you made a common about me scamming ... and I still want to know what that was supposed to mean?

I agree entirely with the poster above.
Tankuk has crazy courage. He just wants to fight and have fun. He is a decent guy, straight-up and dignified.
I personally think he's insane also to agree the no-ecm rules that TankCEO dictated, because I literally can't see how he can win with CEO's extra 2m skill points in a straight damage fest.
But you know what,
Tankuk just doesn't care. He wants to fight anyway.
And that takes a lot of guts.
