Let's not over-complicate things - none of us have your Caelus ships and if you win we will all say your ships were OP anyway, you know. 

Just fly a Doom with green crew like the rest of us....  ;)

Nah, i'd rather have Thaago's official word on this stuff, because, well, i'd love to see my ships face off against hege or tt ships. Allows me to get my RP on ;)

Yeah, I'm with Heskey on this one. I have nothing against the Caelus ships but everyone else only had access to vanilla and I have no idea if the Caelus prices are at all balanced.

I could do another tournament later: 50k (100,200?) Free - most mods allowed (I would make a list lol).

200k would be truly epic :D. I'm going to finish this one before announcing/deciding anything else though.

yeah, it would. anyways, how about recalculating mod ship costs to vanilla standards? all caelus capitals are in the 300k region. Maybe set a Max price too , based on vanilla?

What's the status on this?  Starting to look like seven participants is what you're going to get.  Maybe run a double-elimination tournament, so that there's not as much of an advantage to whoever gets to skip over the first round?

Wyvern is 100% correct about the math.

Sorry about this stalling: its not dead! I'm just adjusting to the first week of classes (I'm teaching labs at 8am 3 days a week O_o) but I'll have the brackets posted later today and run the actual tournament Soon.

Thaago, if you do one with mods you'd have to either make it superbalanced with prices or give huge cash to everyone.

Anyway, i request More Weapons mod to be included, fav ship and weapons are there.

This idea is quite awesome! I would be sure to keep the date and time reserved to watch.
