Game Speed is 8 unless agreed by both Parties



NO X tech   NO heavy's   No dreads




[color=Red]2 Min. Lag/Drop Rule: Lag must be called with in first 2 minutes of Game start. if drop occurs before 2 minutes of game has been played , its an automatic RESTART. When more than 2 minutes have elasped in Game and a Player CRASHES or DROPS, The Wing must Play on to Games End unless Mutually Agreed by All parties to Restart Game/Match



10 Min. Forfeit Rule: You must Start Match within 10 minutes of Match Time or Team who doesn't show forfiets the Match

imediately below is an example of what a dyna load out is basically it is like this: example=152 Mid Frigs only. Means your ship  must be a Frigate(in the frigate part of the shiplist) your ship must be 152 bpv or lower. As extras you are allowed(over and above the ship) : full spare parts full marines full fighters of the best available full shuttles full drones of the fastest available(your choice of light or heavy drones)

YOU CANNOT TAKE ANY SHIP THAT HAS MORE THAN 4 FIGHTERS/MORE THAN 2 PSEUDO FIGHTERS/OR MORE THAN 4 DRONES...However you can take a ship with 4 drones and 4 fighters as can your partner at same time





           whatever is shown as a frigate in the frigate slot,will be a frigate,

if you go to lite cruiser slot,and it is there........they are lite cruisers

    movement ratios do not have a bearing on what constitute a frigate or lite cruisers for this tourney.



 
   

MISTAKENLY TAKING  THE WRONG SHIP COMBINATION RULE

  first 2 minutes of game,either team may report themselves or the other team,with a free  restart(1 time )

    2 MINUTES AND 1 SECOND  to 5 MINUTES into game...if opposing teams note that other side has a wrong ship combination,the first official penalty is given,and a restart occurs

  if you note after 5 minutes and 1 second in play,that the other team has a wrong ship combination---> TO BAD <---  you will be S O L=SHIAT OUT OF LUCK,meaning game plays on to the bitter end(no penalty)

  and f-12 must be taken of the improper ships combination as the only proof excepted

TO AVOID SOME CHEESE SELECTION,NO 2 IDENTICAL SHIPS MAYBE FLOWN TOGETHER IE: YOU CAN FLY THE SAME RACE,JUST NOT THE SAME SHIP AS YOUR WING   WHICH INCLUDES THE VARIENTS OF THOSE SHIPS

       

[color=Black]AND EXAMPLE OF NO TWO IDENTICAL SHIPS WOULD BE    HDWM/HDWM1/HDWM2/HDWM3  WOULD BE CONSIDERED IDENTICAL SHIPS  [/color]

[Riskyllama]

um bump, because reading the other rules page is bad

[HW Cross-Fire]

That should work well for a tournament.  I am sick of the cheese central tournaments where if someone can get a carrier or X-Ship they take them.  I used to love playing SFC 2 when this kind of junk was limited and now we have a decent tourney where it is limited, sweet. 

[Green]

Open Medium Map as default?

(and a bump)

[Austin]

I recall in my last tourney, I raped X ships with DNs.... 240 late, I beieve it was. I don't know what the problem is with X1 ships, but I can see how if someone didn't take an X2 ship in an X2 battle, how you would be mad... but then that would be the selectors problem.

[Mutilator]

Excellent touney! Had a lot of fun, little long of a wait between first and second round, other than that it was a blast!

[HW Cross-Fire]

Those tourney BPVs were fine but the full loadouts just gave more ammunition to the cheesers.  It was terrible they would pick whatever ships they could to get full fighters, full drones according to the rules and it sucked.  Alright, you just gave the cheesers in the CUGS and RFA Alliance more rope to hang you with, I hope you know that. 

[Green]

Good tourney TT.  You, Josh, and whoever else helped, did a good job.

I was a little concerned w/ the D2 loadout rules, but it went well.  The limits on drones/fighters made a big difference and the rule on no two identical (or varient) ships of the same race also helped.  Only thing, in hind sight, that might be changed is to make it 1 game matches except for the final...on that one go 2/3.

[Sanfeng]

Who won?... Risky/Lady or SoV?

good job guys.

Well you can always help with the rules developement?or at least give ideas with your complaints.this was the first time with dyna load outs in a tourney,and i suspect not the last,maybe with a few more tweaks.  example: maybe first two rounds have to be mid or early era=med speed drones and slow drones  just an idea amongst thousands...but you'll have to wait for thaose ones     as for giving cugs and or rfa cheesers a break over everyone else...somehow i doubt that,it will almost always come down to the pilots skill as to who wins,unless in an incredibly lop-sided battle ship wise

TY Green,it sounds liek that is th epopular consenses re: 2/3 in first round.sounds like 2/3 might be better for championship round btw   who won   what round did they win in     and did you use the championship settings re: 270 late upto dread class if teams agreed,or did you go with default settings?

Scuttlebutt has it that SoV won. GJ guys. 

[TraumaTech]

Scuttlebutt has it that SoV won. GJ guys. 

 IF .....WELL DONE.................IF NOT TRY AGAIN,AND CONGRATS TO WHOEVER'S TEAM WON         SETTINGS PLEASE,WHAT WERE THEY FOUGHT OVER?


hopefully ,we can expect more of the dyna dudes to show up.U talk the talk about community,but those of you,who don't try to make 1 or 2 of them at all....sure don't walk the walk.And before you throw in real life issues thingie , I am going through one right now(matter fact it pulled me off the tourney last night,at the very start of it....thx SANFENG,for filling in for me),for the past 3.5 months my wife and daughter have been separated,with no end in site,and it is wearing me down,but god willing,he'll help my wife and i find our way back to one another,so we may bring our beautiful 2.5 y/o daughter up as a whole family..............and right now,i am afraid   

[Dfly]

Well TT keep at it, and time will tell.  TY for the time you put into the tourneys(missed my 1st one this weekend).  +1 to you

[Riskyllama]

Scuttlebutt has it that SoV won. GJ guys.

scuttlebut was right. I take full responsibility for screwing up, especially against cougar and green playing it smart. I hate that I crashed out when Green blew up, but I wasn't too far from gone myself, so it probably didn't matter. GG SoV. GG ladyfreak
