My team, more than others, was relying on getting some more members in before the deadline. When I found out on the day the ATXI was announced, that I only had 6 actual characters in alliance (one of whom has 25M SP), I endeavored to nonetheless enter and have fun. I hope with our MJD antics, you were suitably entertained. If anyone rewatches our matches, please keep this in mind.

Anyhow, my first question to the devs - would our next opponents be in breach of any rules if we convinced them to intentionally let the match go to time so that we can see fireworks being launched at 7.5x speed?

Finally, a question to everyone - what setups would you have brought in my place?

You could try:
2x Navy Scorp
2x Tengu (one with remote rep subsystem, the other with +% to boost strength)
1x Vulture (shield links)
1x Curse

Everything fully XL ASB fit, focus on resists rather than on buffer, no propulsion, cap booster, 1x energy transport on most ships, fit one web and target painter somewhere (or more). The Curse could have a TD for a flavour.

That thing can tank like there's no tomorrow, as we found out in our first match.

Both teams intentionally letting the match go to time would be considered too long of a delay for the broadcast and would not be allowed. However if you're interested in doing an exhibition match on the final weekend with superspeed tidi going the whole time, and can find another team willing to challenge you we may be able to make that work.

Even then forum posting is taking precious RAM.

Make Dolan do it!

OK, then I will go to plan B of MJDing to as close as 225km from bubble as I can. Thanks to CCP for a great tournament; given that you guys are clamping down on groups of friends entering the AT, we might try to enter properly next year or bite the bullet and join a big alliance...
