The first Cake hosted event!
And just in time for the birthday festivities!
WATCH OUR AWESOME VIDEO HERE (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=alA2pobky7k)
Good, so you’ve gone and watched it? Now for some details...
Time:
- Saturday 2nd of November at 9pm UTC (usual Cogs time)
(it would be amazing if you could be ready and in Crew Formation an hour early!)
How does it work?
- A “Team” will be entered by the contact person and consist of 4 members crewing together on one ship.
- Competing Clans can enter up to 3 “Teams.” Those ships will act as individual “Teams” and score points at a per-kill basis. (kill-stealing is encouraged)
- Substitutes can be shared among clans, but as soon as you play for a “Team” you are locked to it, even if the other “Team” is from your clan.
- Switching ships and load-outs during Lobby is allowed, but the “Team” has to stay together.
The Tiers of the Cake:

- Bottom Tier : the Base Tournament
Ships will compete in 4 different matches to score points. Should more than 6 "Teams" sign up, the "Bottom Tier" matches will spread over 2 or more lobbies. "Teams" with the most points will advance to the "Middle Tier."
- Middle Tier : the Finale
Participants will be the 4 (or 6) ships with the highest scores from the Bottom Tier. 3 matches will be played and after each match, 2 of the ships have to switch sides. - Top Tier : (in Kirk’s voice) “Ultimate Cake Topper!”
The ship with the most points at the end of the Middle Tier will gain the grand title.
Maps:
- Any and all Deathmatch Maps are allowed.
- The next map will be determined before your match and told to you by your referee.
Points:
- 2 Points for winning a Match per “Team” with the winning color.
- 1 Point additional for the “Team”-ship that made the kill.
Rules:
- More than 50% fire weapons
- All sides of a ship should have at least 1 fire weapon
- No gunners allowed on Heavy Weapon ships. Heavy Weapons will be loaded with Incendiary Rounds and Heatsink only. (No vanilla rounds!)
- Everyone is obligated to say “happy birthday” at the end of each match, or at the VERY least “gg HB!”
- Ship changes, load-out changes, and any sudden replacements have to be announced by text or voice to your announcer and co-players. (It’s just polite)
- Specific restrictions are applied to certain ships. (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eqOQc4sthn7krCGxqZSKFM711LLJBGLJA1t9uQtPZHs/edit?usp=sharing)
Classified as “Fire Weapons”:
- Banshee Light Carousel
- Dragon Tongue Light Flamer
- Hades Light Cannon
- Beacon Light Flare Gun
- Phobos Light Mine Launcher
Sign up:
As previously stated, a clan may enter up to 3 “Teams”, but they require individual Clan-tags.
(P.S. It might end up on a Tier of our Cake-score board, so if your Clan-tag is short for something, write down the long version next to it.)
- Introduction
- Clan-tags and Crew
- Steam profile of the contact person
Let me give you an example:
Hi, Kirk here from [Cake] to enter my “Teams”
Team 1 : [Swts] (short for Sweets)
James T. Kirk, Andika, Jacob Fii, and Piemanlives
Team 2 : [Cndy] (short for Candy)

But I don't have a Clan!
Well, this is your chance to find 3 friends and make one!
(But be sure to have substitutes in case one of you can't make it)
Other than that, we'd love to have you!
See? It's that easy!
I STILL HAVE QUESTIONS!
Please check up on our FAQs, we shall update them as much as we can! (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1tTobToeqL9vBA1_D4n9BwcaFVbabwuUxaWYeziYDZqw/edit?usp=sharing)
Sign UP! And see you there!
Happy Birthday from the Cakes!
Hey Guys!
We have finished decorating the birthday cake!
The frosting is dripping here and there, and Kirk ate all the whipped cream (but please blame Shink) so we had to melt a bit of chocolate for the top.
I hope you'll still find it delicious, though.
Happy Birthday to all the participants and congratulations to our winners! <3
