Edited by: GM Nova on 03/01/2008 20:26:58 Happy Scrappy New Year dear players.
ItÆs time formally submit the rules for the next Alliance Tournament. After reviewing the rules from the last tournament, we have made some point adjustments and clarifications. The rules are quite similar to last yearÆs tournament as they worked out pretty well for the most part.
The most striking change is disallowing pirate implant sets. This will negate the huge advantage some high grade sets were providing.
Faction battleships have been reduced in price by 5 points. We should now see more faction battleships as well as tech two battleships.
The TotalHellDeath bonus has changed; or rather the requirements have changed, making it harder to get this bonus.
Maximum warp in distance has been shortened to 50km.
Apart from other points adjustments these are the changes that have been made. I hereby submit the 5th Alliance Tournament rules for your review.

Wheeee yay etc looking forward to watching the fights this year but not taking part as my noobishness would cause the cluster to implode under the force of the singularity created by me attempting to lock another ship, other than that looks really good can't wait to see it :) ---------

Happy with the shorter warp-in ranges, kinda disappointed with no cosmos/rigs/implants tho. I guess people won't get to cry isk advantage this year atleast :) In general looks a lot better than last years ruleset.

Question - will hardwirings be allowed or will everyone simply just jumpclone to the tourney system(eg. no implants whatsoever allowed) ?

Secure containers are not allowed to be dropped, but if someone uses a container inside their own cargo hold, and they pop, the can will jettison, would any tournament pilots then be permitted to loot that container? -

Seriously, could we get an answer as to why this is the case?
Good work getting rid of pirate implants. Also, I'd suggest making the subject of the prizes very clear, as there was a lot of confusion and after such a well run tourney (in my mind) it was disappointing that poor communications with the teams caused some to lose out on quite a large sum of isk. It certainly left a bad taste in my mouth. -----

Allowing no rigs is just silly, as pretty much everyone fits them nowadays, no matter the shiptype (bar T1 cruisers and frigs). Especially when there is an entry fee.
Lack of rigs = even less creativity..

Perhaps just the removal of T2 rigs would be better. Either way though, the rules sound good. Let's hope the handling of the staff is better than last year.

Everyone fits warp scramblers nowadays, yet you won't see them in the tournament. Do you know why? The tournament is not TQ PvP. It is a competition and a form of entertainment within eve.
Rigs have just as great an effect as Pirate Implants do on the defensive capabilities of a ship, removing them and implants, and the reduction of the warpin distance, encourages more offensive setups. More offensive setups means more fun matches and fewer ****ty turtle tank wars.
However, i have one enquiry:
Does the Pirate Implant ban cover the other hardwirings also?
and one request:
Increase point reqs on EAS and recon cruisers. Less EW = Better fights :)

The new rules look to be about right and the new points should make for a few interesting team configurations.
I take it hard wire implants are still allowed for this one? Either way I will see some of you on the field of battle once again.

GM Nova,
a) Why would anyone want to waste their time when winning or loosing can be determined by drunk devs?
b) Make sure you stock up on enough alcohol for the entire final day of competition, then perhaps you wont have to run of to the liquor store and leave the tournament in the hands of some guy in the shipping department.

T2 BS the same points at a T1??
Should deffinatly cost a bit more, given that the golem alone could easily sit and tank 10 ships for 15mins!
If someone fielded 3 Golems, would make for one boring fight!

Reading stuff at 6am in the morning, and getting no sleep isnt smart lol.
But still, 3 golems, you wouldnt kill them, and im pretty sure they would manage to kill something!
