Gday
I am send ing this again as we need to get underway with preparations
Will CCP support us or who do we contact?
We plan this to be played over the Christmas period when we are in OUR summer as we are in our active time.
please read on and respond or tell me to go away.
Either way we need to make preparations for this competition.
Thankyou

I am the CEO of an Australian Corp and an active member of the Australian EvE community.

A couple of times a year we run an Australian roam where blues and reds and nuets all join a fleet and roam around eve.
Australians from many corps and alliances join together to have fun, drink and roam.

Australian /AUTZ Eve players are a very unique group as downtime is always in our prime playtime and always affects what we are doing in game.. sometime we dont get to play as there are long patches etc., we are always saught after by alliances to fill the AU timeslot to make alliances truly 24/7, we all like EvE but find it difficult to join the alliance tourney as it is not our Timezone , things like work and sleep tend to get in the way whenever the tournament is on.

anyways....

On that ,myself and nGR RDNx a gentleman that runs an AUTZ radio show (that has an EvE related show on friday nights) would like to run a tournament in the AUTZ for 5 man fleets from each of the AUTZ corps.

We have had a lot of banter between CEOs and other aussies in game.

I have spoken to many CEOs of Australian corps in game and they are all excited about this event. Seems it is very positive the feedback we have had already.

We would like to have

* 5 man fleets
bc below
* each fleet to have
1 frig
1 cruiser t1
1 ewar ship
no logi
* to be held in neutral space (this is where you can help us)
* the fights to be fast and high turnover.
* many rounds over a short period of time.
there maybe more points to consider
* players to have members of the corp for 6 months minimum

We have a concern people will metagame and compromse the competition, eg fight before the tourney or bring in fleets to disrupt the event etc etc etc..

We would like to give out isk and ships for prizes and will charge a fee to enter and all isk going back to the winners etc.

We would also like some sort of award to be presented to the winners so they can have it in their bio as bagging rights.
This would be fantastic for the AUTZ eve community and forge a stronger bond for our love of EvE online and potentialy bring more players to EvE and reignite the passion we have for EvE.

This event we would like to run every year.

In advance we would like to thankyou for your support of this event.

We have a concern people will metagame and compromse the competition, eg fight before the tourney or bring in fleets to disrupt the event etc etc etc..

mate we are talking about corps from alliances such as
FCON
AIF
NCDOT
-A-
GEWNS
rote kappelle
but to name but a few
these are all alliances that will use any chance to slay a neut or a red

so having a DO gooder fleet on hand is not really a feasible option as all alliance will have the same thing..and it has the potential to be an event destroyer.

we have considered this seriously enough to seek some ccp assistance.

they want us to organise player events and get involved .
well here as an event they can get involved in.

SO CCP back us up and make this happen

This. If you don't want people metagaming beyond a certain degree, go outside the game, where they don't care about their shinies being blown up.

EDIT: Also, I'm reasonably certain that the eve-mail accounts of the CCP folks aren't monitored at all, to answer your first question.

well well....to make me smile and contradict your comment... I will push forward and make this event happen
thankyou CCP



Dear industrial oblitorator,

Thank you for contacting me and thank you very much for your interesting idea and this incredible engagement!

Sadly I cannot help you with that much at the moment, but I have forwarded this mail and your request to some more people here.

Especially at the moment, with the preparation for the Crucible deployment at Nov. 29th, my time is very strained. Maybe you can work in the meanwhile a bit more on the details and how we, as Community team, could be of more help.

Best regards,
CCP Phantom
Community Coordinator

Mate I am working as fast as I can to get this event off the ground.
I am working with rd from netgame radio...
atm it is just the two of us..
I am sure as we move forward we may need more hands on deck.
But if ya help cant enter the comp as it may be a conflict of interest.
but any assistance would be great.

I will have a meeting this weekend to nut out some more details.
with that i will respond to CCP

I reaｌly hope the AUTZ eve community gets onboard.

I hope that answers all your questions..

It may end up being post the ANZAC DAY roam next year at the pace we are going but it will happen.

so stay tuned and spread the word.
