...game involving the new command destroyers. It is not dissimilar to ball in goal games like Soccer and basketball.

It involves:
Two teams piloting Command Destroyers.
Two Goals
One "ball" comprised of an unpiloted rookie ship

The goals are 350 KM apart - not an issue with the new grid sizes, and are comprised of 8 anchored mobile depots to create box roughly 5KM per side.
A goal is scored by depositing the ball into the box.

The ball can only be moved by bumping or carrying it via the MJFG.

No weapons are allowed on any ships: only the following mid slots are allowed: MJFG, AB, MWD, webbifier, and warp scram(s). Lows can be fitted as you like. Highs and Drone bays must be empty. Exception: the high slot can contain a link. No other links allowed.

The Grid is the boundary.

First to score, period, is the winner until the full difficulty is determined.

Can only be played outside of High Sec due to MJFG restrictions.

Cloaking is the closest thing to a "Pause Game" button one can get while in space.

Here I used to have a sig of our old Camper in space. Now it is disregarded as being the wrong format. Looking out the window I see one thing: Nothing wrong with the format of our Camper! Silly CCP......

lol... I think Bob would be more appropriate.

Looking for a name more associated with EVE so while Space Quiddich has a certain ring to it (good idea to get the bludgers in, Mike) Space Golf sounds almost closer to the idea... hmmm...

Bob Ball?

I'd go with Jump Ship, just to break away from the naming conventions here.

after all, it is a ship youre hurtling everywhere.

Always be yourself.

Unless you can be a pirate.

Then always be a pirate.
