Just wanting a little confirmation on something. You say it must be in a Gallente hull. I'm assuming that means any gallente hull (excluding frigs and destroyers) not necessarily a Navy Issue hull. Correct? Meaning I could jump in a Thorax and submit a video for this.

Correct, you jump into your thorax, you submit your video to One Man Crew contest and on top of everything there you can also win The Federation Award.

Shoot them all! Be polite.

IMPORTANT UPDATE

Quote:
Due the low amount of submissions we have decided toextend the deadline with an additional month.
The new deadline is now March 27th. In addition we will allow you to submit more than 1 fight.

The reason we are doing this is that by February 26th we have received 18 submissions, which is a relatively low amount considering that the video will feature up to 15 fights. We want this project to feature some of the best fights among the Solo PvP community and therefore we need a larger pool of fights for the panel of judges to pick from.

The nature of this contest has caused many people to doubt themselves and judge their own capabilities in advance. This results in a situation where people are too β€œafraid” of submitting their fight as it isn’t perfect. We have received messages from a couple hundred players who wanted to give it a go, but as we had only received 18 submissions it is clear that there are many people out there who gave up. Therefore by letting everyone submit more than 1 fight, we will relieve the pressure that some people put on themselves and hopefully encourage more to submit their fights. Also, the knowledge that there have only been a few submissions can hopefully encourage you guys to give it another shot! And the extra month will give you time for it. So there is still a good chance... And remember that you can’t win if you don’t submit :-)

I hope you understand our choices. Our goal is to create an epic PvP video. So we can promote the joys Solo PvP in Eve, and maybe even lure some new players into the game.

This project is its own reward, no one particular player/game entity gains anything here, except the pilots who will feature in the final video. Drop all the fears and hesitations, and give it your best shot. This upcoming month is the last chance, there will be no further extensions. Undock a ship, and enjoy the beauty of Eve. All you've got to lose is a bit of ISK, and the possibility of rewards are endless. The fun, the glory, the emotion, even if it is disappointments, even if its a hairline difference in a structure battle, the adrenaline, the hunt, the possible victory, the contest awards, the ISK, the ships, the final video, you as the hero, the search, the deep space solitude roaming, the rush, that rare perfect fight where your fit truly shine, where all your piloting instincts strike gold, none of this can happen if you don't try. We're counting on you. There is no one else. Not "you" as in the community. You as in the individual one who reads this now.

Mizhir, Aldap and the judges.
One Man Crew - Collective solo pvp


Seems that you have one more month! Get some!

One week left guys. Shiny things waiting for you.

β€œMen are haunted by the vastness of eternity and so we ask ourselves will our actions echo across the centuries? Will strangers hear our names long after we're gone and wonder who we were? How bravely we fought? How fiercely we loved?”

"Myrmidons, my brothers of the sword. I'd rather fight beside you than any army of thousands.
Let no man forget how menacing we are, we are lions!
Do you know what's there, waiting, beyond that beach? Immortality! Take it, it's yours!"

Shoot them all! Be polite.

The time has come. Over 100 submissions in the main contest, a small percentage of which I hope to be from you guys. It might take some time now, but as Aldap said the video is already in the making. I will contact the judges as soon as I get info from Aldap or Mizhir.

Do you know whether or not the winner of the Federation award will be featured in the final OMC video? I remember early in the contest there wasn't a clear answer for this, and the OMC guys said it might be, or the winner just might be listed in the video but the fight itself not be featured.

Just an update on this one.

Za'afiel had to quit eve due something happening in real life. So the work of this prize fell to me.

In addition, there have only been 2 people who submitted fights for this prize. So I discussed this with the contributors and gave them the opportunity to get their donation refunded 1 guy those to do this so far. My plan with the current prizepool for this award is to split it between the 2 participants. But I haven't really done more as the main contest takes up all my time.
