Fight system is Tekaima. Concord System 0.6 Sec status.

Fights will be 1v1. Basically, Team 1 and Team 2 are up for a fight. Team 1 will pick the ship/pilot on team 2 they wish to fight, then team 2 picks the person on team 1 they want to fight. Fight happens, loser is eliminated and his team is down to 3 pilots. Then team 2 vs team 3, same deal so forth and so on, until only 1 team is left.

REFUNDABLE ENTRY FEE: 200 million ISK to DJ FunkyBacon in game, send with an eve mail for which night you want to fight, a team name if you're not all in the same corp/alliance, and a list of team members. Fee will be repaid to you upon your elimination from the tournament or if you win the final final on the 25th. Fee is forfeit if your team fails to show up or finds a way to cheat. First 3 entry fees i get are the teams for tonight. Others will be refunded once i log in.

Winning the tourneys on the 11th or 18th will get your team a prize of 400 million (100 per pilot) winning on the 25th will get your team 1 Billion isk (250 million per pilot).

If you win your preliminary round, your team will fight the other 2 winning teams on the 25th for the big prize.

The final leg of the preliminaries begins in 35 hours. I have no signups yet, however once the show starts the 200 million refundable entry fee goes away and slots fill fast. You COULD take your chances and have your team ready and sign up then without having to front the 200, you just need to be fast. Remember that it is refunded upon elimination or victory.
