Yeah, it’s really gonna be hard, checking the timestamps on the undock and kill.

sure - once they have parsed thru the entries, in their various submission formats. Its a pile of paperwork. Far better if player entries could be judged entirely through server logs.

Well, sub 2s align is doable on alpha. Targeting might be within 1 server tick as well, depending on the target. Availability of alts/friends with skirmish (align time) near dock and information (scan res/lock range) links on the site is not really limited to omegas. Warp speed will be a major component in this competition and HG Ascendency is a huge boost.

@CCP_Falcon if citadel is anchored in the same grid as static asteroid belt and that belt has some rats - does that count as “rats on undock”?

I wonder if its possible to send an undocking person into fleet warp before they are fully loaded…

The best people are those who have made these types of mistakes before and learnt from them, this whole execute the decision maker is a horrible American tradition that should just be removed from this world.

Rapid Fire V  
Sharpshooter V  
Small [weapon] Specialization IV-V  
Surgical Strike V  
Trajectory Analysis V

Added an additonal rule as we’ve received one entry that was recorded in 360p that’s completely illegible.

- Videos must be fully legible, at a minimum resolution of 720p.

The more ridiculous all this crap gets, the more I become convinced CCP is actually acting “rationally” - though probably not in our interest. I guess it is connected with the merger.

Anyway - my alt is now alpha and my main has bought game time with ISK for the first time. No more money for the greedy suckers.

Of course it does. Rapid Firing is cycle time. Surgical Strike is pure damage. Specialization is pure damage. Sharpshooter is Optimal—try using blasters without it, you’ll find ‘on top’ isn’t on top _enough_. And I didn’t even get into Motion Prediction—because you’ll need tracking if you’re ‘on top’ of them.

It still adds up.

CCP thanks you for supporting the PLEX market, as every PLEX purchased gives them cash.

If they want to milk the weak - let’s see how far they get with that. I certainly won’t send the wrong signal now by resubscribing.
