TimmyB Tournament Week 3 information

(1/3) > >>

Byron Cavendish:
Because of the complex nature of week 3's squid race, I will be making this detailed post. If you have any question about the information or feel some is lacking please say so.

The squid race will take part on canyon ambush. It will technically be a 3v3, but that is where the teams begin and end. Each ship will be working for its self this week. The circuit will be displayed below, and will be three laps. Points will be allocated to ships based on how they finish.

Points: winner: 10, losers: 5(second place), 3(third place), 1(fourth-sixth place)

No one is allowed to kill opposing ships, but they may be disabled or hurt. The only guns allowed are flares, harpoons, and mine launchers. Tar is allowed. Ramming is allowed. Use your best discretion when to lay off the pressure when it comes to not killing. If necessary a ref will tell a captain to back off.

If a ship does die they must return to the starting line and can leave just before the ship that killed them arrives.

Captains must follow the course to win their points. Cheating will lead to no points.

The Map:

The Course:
Any white lined areas are out of bounds. Any area in between the teal lines is in bounds  and legal. The arrows point in the direction that you should travel. Red is the start line. I expect commendations for a paint masterpiece here.

Thomas:
Number of laps?

Is winner decided by being the first to cross, or will you be timing the ship laps? If a death occurs, it's more or less guaranteed for them to come in last if done by first to finish.

What happens if a ship does kill another? Is the ship that did the killing penalized in any way?

And is it just me, or is the course seemingly very short?

Edit:
This also conflicts with some information on the main page. You should update that page to avoid confusion.

I think those are 2 borders of the same route.
