I'm doing some light house sitting for you while you are gone. Do you have a bunch of boxes some where? It's hard to pack up your..... I mean, I like to make box forts, so boxes would be nice. Where do you keep your hand tools?

Enjoy your you stay!!!

There should be classes.

Class One is all t1 gear and hulls, Class 2 is t2 gear/hulls, and Unlimited would be as much swag as you wanna risk (faction hull, officer mods, the kitchen sink and fedo tears....)

Prizes would be awarded accordingly.

Class Zed would be rookie ships with all civilian gear/guns, of course...:)

nahhh..... Zed would be dreads and carriers.


Brings up some interesting build possibilities, who would win, brawling Moros or sniping Revenant? lol

I like this idea. Shiny stuff is fun, but it would be fun to play around wtih the t1 versions to see what kind of insanity ensues.
It would also lower the pricetag a bit for entry, which may entice (not incite) more participants.
'No Poors' alliance standards might also be able to be mitigated through the fitting of shiny things also? I dunno, just throwing that out there.

I don't have much time except in the mornings, but I'm interested in giving one of these matches a run sometime. Just have to catch me before I'm completely tanked :)

My 200 mil comment was more directed at a ship and fit. Hadn't considered the entry fee. Tbh I don't see the need for a fee outside of limiting participants for some reason. The original fee was due to plex for good. If you really want winnings at the end loot everybody you murdered to get there Lol. Failing that do a 50mil fee or 100mil

I might join in if theres no entry fee. I can afford to throw away a few nomens or similar, but I don't really want to add double that cost with the fee.

The entry fee really was just an idea. If more people are able to play without it, I'm fine with that too. For me, 200m isn't much, however I do know that for others it can be.

Personally I would rather we get more participants than make iskies.

I'm all for a 50mil isk fee. It's (1/10th of what badman cost meBlink) cheap and it should keep a lot of troll entries out. I think Thunderdome Championships should be kept to a 2 monthly traditional format. But if somebody wanted to do an exotic match of some sort this month start a thread dammit Big smile. I'll defiantly start a thread at the beginning of next month calling for a Thunderdome Championship bracket with a traditional setup.

Wait, people can't afford these entree fees? Such space poors.

50m would be adequate to alleviate troll entrants. Then again, do we want to alleviate troll entrants? It can be argued that it's all part of the fun. Blink

I cannot wait to see this alleged counter for the Gila.

I was thinking it does have pretty poor cap life....if you hit it with a rack of medium neuts to turn off the invulns and DCU, that huge tank will go away.

There are also a number of ways to neutralize drones...especially when there's only 2.

I have already stated my requirements for you to obtain the trannytos carrier. Gank miners with vigilants, and I'll provide it.

Your ORIGINAL requirement was to save your vindicator from a lone griphon (which I did), now you bring up this ganking miners w/ vigilants thing. I'm not the smartest pilot in eve, but I'm not the dumbest either. The vigilant thing is just bad business. I've done enough bad business with you already - I'm not doing more.

If I started doing silly poop like this I wouldn't be able to hand out 500 mil prizes to thunderdome winners. You're trying to punish all that read and enjoy C&P in order to get out of your thanatos carrier debt. I don't think that's very cool at all.

Bronson - I know you would have done thunderdome regardless, but didn't the +500 mil make it that much cooler?

Think of the children here Leto. Do it for them and for puppies. (You do love puppies don't you?)
