Noooooooooo!
Any chance you can bring the tourney forward just a week?
OK..OK..you ain't going to change it just for me, but for the sake of all the people who've been planning for this event since the last tourney(and ones before..) most of us would of expected a 6 month time scale.
This puts it at 8 1/2 months since the last tourney and right when I'm on holiday. And I suspect a few other tounrey favs who'll of pushed all their RL plans away from June & July.
Bizarre timing for RL or storyline rational (other than the excuse of tournament organisation apathy) for why this 'regular' sporting event would be so out of kilter.
You deployed Revelations less than a week before the last tourney so TQ playability & employees over worked issues can't be a excuse surtely?!
Like the points & rules except...
No Cosmos mods & Podding.
Seems odd you CAN'T splash out on moderately expensive but readily available modules that increase the competative capability of lower skilled pilots(not MY problem of course.. I'm into them for the CPU  ) but you CAN buy rare and expensive as heck faction implants & also be expected to lose them to a nanoed smart bombing yoyo.
I thought murder wasn't condoned in the tournament?
If you want to be this strict on mods/death, can I suggest you have SISI style 'sells everything for 100ISK' stations in whatever part of Jove space you hold the tourney. Provide a jump clone at an appropriate team station(for the duration of the tourney), then allow players an hour or two set up times for their fights.
It'd level the playing field for one thing(maybe increase entry cost to offset ISK lost losing). Be a true test of setup skills. Surely increase interest in participation from those that otherwise couldn't lose the ISK.
And, you'd have to do no ship scanning thus making your jobs easier 
Please reconsider Logistics drones too..I'd happily use/kill them, but it leads the way for no skill turtle tanks and looooooooooooong nothing is happeing matches like the 3rd tourney final.

As good as a month since the last official remarks about the tourney.
A cool off period of a couple of weeks was mentioned after a rather interesting rule set was posted.
I've been on tender hooks since then, I can't sleep at night and it's starting to effect my work, I've come out in hives and I've developed disfuntions in my extematies.
(NB: 4 of the 5 above may not be true, and the 5th may only trouble me on average 5 minutes each day)
Any chance we can have some kinda update on rule changes based on 'zomg noes' responses to the somewhat quirky original ones?
Thankyou muchly

Hello? Anybody there?
It has now been 6 weeks of us arguing, giving feedback and speculating about the rules, but not a single CCP update or response on the matter. This is making it near impossible to prepare for the tournament, as we don't even know if we can be bothered to sign up if you are planning to keep the rules like they are now.
Seconded.
Kinda rude keeping us all waiting like this tbqh.
GM Nova can't even muster the time to say
'The rules stand as they are'
What happened to this promised round table discussion?
I take it no-one at CCP really cares about this issue.
All the marketing possabilities drained from it now and EveTV proving to be a money trap now or something??
ANY kinda clarification on peoples questions or even the vaguest of communication from anyone at CCP would be greatly appreciated.
