Dark Shikari Caldari Imperium Technologies Firmus Ixion	Posted - 2007.07.10 19:28:00 - [1] Edited by: Dark Shikari on 10/07/2007 19:30:39 Over the past few weeks you may have heard about the SWA-Glory PvP tournament, a cruiser tournament between newbies of various skill levels that occurred roughly a week ago. It got lots of attention: Xylania and Spiraljunkie showed up representing EVETV, as did Chribba. I showed up, of course, to film it. A lot of Caracals died to make this movie. A lot. It was satisfying. I've been in Israel for the past week or so, so I have not had much time to finish the editing. But its finally done, encoded, and uploaded. The good news is that there are three versions of the video of varying quality levels/sizes/filetypes. The bad news is that, being a video of a large single-elimination tournament, its pretty long. Some notes about the video: --Before each fight, the fitting of both sides is shown; this should help you get an idea of what they're flying and what they're planning to do. --The bracket's current state is shown before and after each fight. --Due to the video's length (nearly 50 minutes), I decided on a more relaxing (but still upbeat) trance mix (by Ryysa) rather than heavier music. Its great listening, too. Ryysa ftw! --There were a number of quite funny occurrences in the movie. Some have been accompanied by the Benny Hill theme. You'll laugh. --I apologize if some of the fights are boring; there are one or two Caracal vs Caracal fights that are... uneventful, for example. Of course, Caracals die in them, so they're worth watching. I apologize for the large filesizes, but for the length and resolution, they're actually pretty small. And hey, even the high quality version is smaller than DaMige Control. Don't whine about the size of the high quality one if you don't like it; just download the medium quality one instead, which weighs in at a ridiculously low 5-6 megabytes per minute. If you are willing to run a mirror for any of these files, please say so. I'll add your links to the main post. Also, I would strongly not recommend the High Quality version if EVE-files is maxed out and there's no mirror yet. If you can't play the H.264 versions, download the CCCP. Don't use VLC, it seems to be flaky on these. Now sit back, relax, pick someone in the bracket to root for, and watch the tournament! High Quality H.264 Version Size: 873MB Total bitrate: ~2385kb/s Resolution: 1680x1050 Codec: x264, using the AutoEncoder, on Low Speed/High Quality. Note: If you want to make sure you can play the High Quality version on your computer before you download it, try this short clip, encoded with the same settings. If it stutters, try the medium quality version. Medium Quality H.264 Version (recommended if EVE-files is going slow or your computer is not that fast--note the vastly lower filesize) Size: 270MB Total bitrate: ~737kb/s Resolution: 1152x720 Codec: x264, using the AutoEncoder, on Low Speed/Medium Quality. Medium-Low Quality WMV Version (Note the considerably larger filesize than the similar H.264 version. Only use this if you have a very slow computer or don't want to install the CCCP. The quality is also about 10% lower than the above one.) Size: 434MB Total bitrate: ~1185kb/s Resolution: 1152x720 Codec: WMV9 Advanced Profile, using a custom version of the WMV9 Command Line encoder on "Better" settings. 23 Member EVE Video makers: save EVE-files bandwidth!

Jake Stevens The League of Legitimate Nigerian Businessmen	Posted - 2007.07.10 20:47:00 - [7] hmm noob tourny! Sounds fun! Downloading
Takahashi Arran coracao ardente Triumvirate.	Posted - 2007.07.10 22:22:00 - [8] wow this is fun to watch, i was expecting it to be a bit dull but it isn't. its especially interesting to see how the mind of a new player works when fitting ships (such as the ecm caracal and the triple RCU thorax). It looks amazing fun- it is happening again? (places alt in DCMI, SWA and FNA just incase :D) (fyi noobs for next time try 5* heavy electrons, mwd, web, cap mod, 1600mm plate , eanm ,eanm , rcu , SAR on your rax) - not having watched the whole thing i would bet on either the rupture from fight 1 or one of the sensible rax's winning - t unless somone clever has a yarrbitrator or a vexor still to come and good drone skills
Angelus Pirata Caldari State War Academy	Posted - 2007.07.10 22:40:00 - [9] Brilliant video, brilliant tourney. Shame I joined SWAG Just after. Good going guys and girls, I enjoyed it thoroughly. P.S. Dark Shikari isn't it time you gave me a sponge bath?
Lore Isander Caldari Paisti	Posted - 2007.07.10 22:46:00 - [10] Dling, Ryysa music ftw! Note: RYYSA, not RYSSA. R-Y-Y-S-A. He doesnt whine about it but its annoying to see his name being typed like that because of what it means in Finland when typed Ryssa <.< --- How do I shot web?
MaleViolent	Posted - 2007.07.10 23:01:00 - [11] Originally by: Takahashi Arran (places alt in DCMI, SWA and FNA just incase :D) Trimvirates's in our noob corps spyin' our opz. As the 'father' of the tournament, I guess I'd like to say thanks to everyone who helped out, with a huge "thank you" to Dark Shikari, who spent a lot of time into these videos. (I'm downloading, but I've pretty much seen all the footage both first-hand, and then each draft of the video already.) It was a lot of fun, and overall everyone was entertained (I think). As for news of another tournament, there's not one planned for anytime soon.
Scraqp Illicit Technologies	Posted - 2007.07.11 00:26:00 - [12] this was very nice to watch. ty ! wish i would have gotten the chance to participate in a tournament like this... what was the prize btw? ^^
Lexang	Posted - 2007.07.11 00:40:00 - [13] Official prize was around ~50m isk, and a hookbill. Separatly a fellow SWA member also gave a battleship of my choice.
hascat	Posted - 2007.07.11 02:00:00 - [14] I liked the choice of music for my fight with Kitt Zehn! Can't wait for the next one.
Dave White coracao ardente	Posted - 2007.07.11 02:23:00 - [15] I was expecting it to be quite dull as well, but suprisingly enough it wasn't. Nicely done! Originally by: CCP kieron Dave, that sig is freaky and funny at the same time.

Bluestealth BlueLabs	Posted - 2007.07.11 03:57:00 - [17] I knew the Rupture was going to win from the start! Could have sped up some of the Caracal fights

I think only a couple people had even close to the drone skills to effectively pilot them; I know Acacia did, not sure about any of the others. 23 Member EVE Video makers: save EVE-files bandwidth!

You must be doing something wrong; DownThemAll lets you resume whenever it times out, and EVE-files supports resuming. Anyways, I'm done multiplexing the new WMV file (now with audio!) Hopefully I'll be able to upload it by tonight. 23 Member EVE Video makers: save EVE-files bandwidth! Use the H.264 AutoEncoder!
Dei Amarr Khanid Aerospace Group Khanid Provincial Authority	Posted - 2007.07.11 13:44:00 - [29] Yeah I know, I've done it before with Eve-Files but recently DownThemAll just cuts out and starts from the beginning. Might be a bugged version of it, or my crappy ISP... --- The true master paralyses his opponent, leaving him vulnerable to attack

I use Free download manager. Alot better, and has builtin video viewer etc. Also nice vid, could have sped some parts up a bit more, and less right click left click zoom and more "look at". Got annoying after a while.

Got annoying after a while. Yeah Look At is nice but then you get menus during the footage. The problem with left/right zoom is that the camera's natural shake is amplified by the zoom so its hard to stay targeted on. 23 Member EVE Video makers: save EVE-files bandwidth!

Mystic Pete	Posted - 2007.07.13 17:36:00 - [42] Downloaded. Watched. Enjoyed. Thanks Dark Shakari for all the time and effort you put into this. You have done us all proud. Also thanks to Maleviolent and everyone who participated or watched. I think it's safe to say that it was a great event for everyone. I'm all for making this a regular thing, but that decision goes to those you have to put far more work in than the combatants. So thanks again Dark Shikari (even if you did miss the end of my first fight)

KaiH GoonFleet GoonSwarm	Posted - 2007.07.16 13:29:00 - [52] I enjoyed that alot more than I expected to. There were some really good and close fights there, some unexpected fittings (thats me being polite, it means awfull) and some genuine wtf moments (osprey el oh el) Great camerawork, nicely edited. Music was OK too. Although at times abit too... bubblegum. And the best man won!
Chainsaw Plankton	Posted - 2007.07.18 02:51:00 - [53] i think the thorax would have won if it killed all of the ruptures drones and kept the tracking disruptor on. and then let the drones do all the work on the rupture while it cant hit anything that and its rather easy to tell their drone skills are lacking by the time it takes one drone to kill another
Kitt Zehn	Posted - 2007.07.18 10:54:00 - [54] Edited by: Kitt Zehn on 18/07/2007 10:54:06 Kudos to you on an amazing video, DS. Couldn't have asked for a better cameraman or better results for a little newbie tourney. chuckles Quote: --There were a number of quite funny occurrences in the movie. Some have been accompanied by the Benny Hill theme. You'll laugh. Having finally recovered some shreds of dignity, I'll just say that I live to amuse and inspire feelings of competence in more serious pilots. I certainly got a good laugh out of the experience. I think I'll be sticking to frigates from here on out though. That, and areas with fewer cans. grins

I haven't trance as good as that since I saw Ferry Corsten live at Turnmills. Amazing stuff. Really positive. I remember checking out your trance radio station and thinking it was a bit limited. I'll have to check it again in the very near future. Could I be really lazy and ask for a linky? Pretty please
