sooo... did you count the points? Will you let us know? Or are you still deciding how many minus points you should give to some unnamed ship for the double-harpoon pyra screw up? ^^ Any update would be appreciated :)

-
Aww no scrap :(.
-
We wanted to stick with crazy king as the games tend to be more strategic and less campy.
-
Unless I'm going blind, you guys have forgot the Viva la Dragons team that did sign up for week 2 :-\
-

Competitive matches can be boring, but they aren't really campy anymore.
-
We may have missed viva la dragons. If we did they will get that last spot! ;)
-
Yes, you did miss us! Can I assume now that the open slot is ours?
-
Yep!
-
sorry, I missed teatime at first too :|, but yes, viva are in then ^^ see you there

-
week 2 points coming up?
-
I really don't want to be annoying, but will we ever see points from week 2 or 3? Or will you at least tell us, when to expect that?
-
Sorry, we ran into a hiccup for week 2. Be'lanna has finished the numbers and submitted them to Caylin (the keeper of numbers), so they will be posted soon. Week 3 is also done and submitted, but week 3 really isn't late (we will usually post the numbers by Wed. at the latest). Sorry for the delay!

placement points were given to Super Hyper Mega Ultimate Robo Girl, as they were judge to have cut the course, sneaky devils.
of course I do apologise for this delay, and on behalf of myself and the rest of the crew who have been organising this event, thank you ever so much for sticking with us this far, we know we havn't been the best with timings and a few hiccups here and their, and I may have forgotten to use deoderant one week, stinking up a few matches, so again, thank you. we hope you enjoy the rest!
(P.S. any issues, please do not hesitate to skype or steam me (either add [G] Caylin, or add me via another organiser) or send me a PM on the forums. any constructive criticisms or things I or another organiser have missed/neglected is always good to here, and we will have a thread open for ideas and critisisms after the event is over, to improve the players experience in future installments!)

I don't want to be that guy, but where do those 3 points for Thrallicious come from? ._.

3 kills = 2 points
plus we only got 9 points from winning last week.
-
alright!
-
Kinda sad we could not participate since the 1st week, we find it nice to get 21pts in 2 weeks only.
Hope this kind of event will continue again soon.
-
We will be making this event biannual. Season 2 will be sometime after March, after the HC ends and right around the one year anniversary of Timmy's passing. We definitely are excited about contributing this tournament. We hope to really improve upon what we learned, and to add a unique option to the current competitive scene.

if you dont mind me saying byron I think this event would do very well runing for 4 weeks every 3rd month or so. It is the only casual event, and proved to be a lot of fun. The problems you guys have had can easily be fixed, but I think it would be a good idea to run this kind of thing more than 2 times per year.

It seems like a lot of work to do a tournament, and this would require them to do a lot of work almost non stop.
-
We may run it three times a year, and I'm glad you guys enjoyed it. One of the primary concepts was to give established teams and new players something fun to be a break from the serious meta tournaments. I don't think we will run again until March regardless though. The Fall schedule is full, and winter holiday season is a hard time to run events, and then HC starts. But we will defintely consider running it more!
-
No reference points to Iron Mallards? Phew, judges have no taste of good music
-
I think that one point might be misattributed to Museosaurs. I got a single point for the Black Cloaks in a thread a while back, but it was given to Muse, then redacted and given to Black Cloaks since that was the team I somehow couldn't get three more people for :P
-
Well, I liked it ;)
-
No points for Spire Drill? :<

You got a plus one in my book :)
-
I think in week 4 the points were set so that each side got points == to their team's total kills, so 7 for a win, with the amount of kills their ship individually got added on as bonus points, where as in week 5, due to heavy flaks having an obvious advantage it was only 7 points for a win and the loosing team got their kills in points.
that said, I had to give the waifus some love for that impressive display of "kill securing" ^^
and Iron Mallards got their bonus points for the name "Run to the Bills", just forgot to mention it for like the 5th time :|. that's why they went up 10 points from last week ^^
(Flying through dust clouds and barren wastes
Waddling hard on the Dunes
Run to the Bills, Quack for your lives!)
-
I'd like to correct, we did not score all 7 kills. We scored 6. The last kill was done by one of the other 2. Not sure who. I know it wasn't us because we were under heavy fire at the time.

Your logo was outstanding. Also I like your name- and logo-shifting in general. Good stuff and nice theme!
