X-Verse Rumble Pit - Yes, 3 Way Fights Do Work!

[EmperorJon]

Let's Get Ready To Rumble

___________________________________

The Rumble Pit is a spring-off competition of the X-Verse Fleet Fest, with permission. Essentially it's a sister thread that's almost exactly the same.

Almost.
___________________________________

The Rules:

The rules are, in general, very simple to the XFF, with a few major changes.

Firstly, the credit limit is decided by the two participants.

There's no tournament, no rankings. It's a 1 on 1. A duel. Winner is the last man with something standing.

To decide to battle you must contact someone and ask them. If they agree, you contact the independant referee who will video the match and post it, much like XFF.

After agreeing on a set credit limit, you're allowed to spend half of this amount on a fleet which is then posted.

Once both fleets are for all to see, you are then allowed to spend the other half on the rest of your fleets, but are not allowed to change your previous half! (CLARIFICATION: Remove anything from the previous ships. You are, of course, allowed to add more...) This means you can tailor some of your fleet just for killing what you can see the enemy has! But they might know you'll do that and trick you... this is where intelligence comes in, not just brawns!

Once everything is good and proper, a battle ground is chosen. This can be one of the XFF maps... or some others I may make... these others I will make could be interesting... ever wanted to duel your friend in an asteroid field?

The battle then takes place via XFF standard spawning as the AI, and is recorded.

In order to participate in battles you must be on the participants list. Once you are it will be listed all your battles, wins, losses, and links to your videos!

[Dantrithor]

Where do i have to sign up as participant?

[EmperorJon]

Right there.



Unfortunately, I can't get recording things working on my PC, and I'm going no holiday at the end of the week... for 3 weeks.

So I can't record... we'll need a recorder!

[X2-Eliah]

So this is a 'here is an idea, need people to execute it' thing? Sorry to say this, but these kinds of things don't go down well in the scripting forums.

Anyway, good luck, hope this works out (not that I believe it will), I certainly won't spam any fleets in here.

[EmperorJon]

Good thing we're not in the scripting forums.



And I'm not saying 'But I can't do it'

I'm saying 'At the moment...'

[Deadbeat_Spinn]

Alright, I'm in but I'll need a partner in crime.

[EmperorJon]

I want to run a test battle or 2, without recording, so we could have some fun... want to participate DBS?

EDIT: Have some fun!?

No, so we can test to see how well the idea works...

[EmperorJon]

The only rules were, no super cheap Kha'ak/Xenon, and no huge spams...

Prices are without the shipyard shield, we had to buy that.

All tunings free...

[Serial Kicked]

Neat idea,

Too bad i'm gonna be on vacation 'till September. This said, be ready to fight my fleet when i'm back

[Deadbeat_Spinn]

@EJ,

The reason DBS disappeared was because after working a 10 hr shift and being up for 30+hrs I needed a couple hours of rest. I was halfway done when my head hit the desk but it'll be finished when you return.


@Aro,

You and your PALC's. But why mess with something that works right?


@Serial Kicked,

Can't wait to see what you have up your sleeve.

[Serial Kicked]

hehe,

I *could* spawn the ultimate fleet of death if i wanted to (you'd be surprised). But nah i'll only pick Pirate, Split (if no pirate variant available) and Yaki ships. It will make fights more interesting.

Btw, speaking of pirate ships (well, not only), some of them can use laser beam weaponry. Can i use that in my fleet or not ?

[Aro]

I'd be using them if we could

[Deadbeat_Spinn]

Alright EJ, the second half of my fleet is done. 53 credits to spare (201 credits overall, which I might find a use for).

[Aro]

So it's the same amount for the second list?

[Deadbeat_Spinn]

Yes. The total is broken into 2 parts. But the overall total is suppost to be agreed upon by the two participants facing each other (i.e. if both parties agree to a 1bil cap, it gets broken into two sets of 500 or if both agree only M6 an larger can be used, and so forth).

[Aro]

Guess I'll wait to see if EJ wants to have a three way fight then.
