Starsector Spoiler Scramble - 0.95 Tournament
« on: May 30, 2021, 10:10:14 AM »

Howdy! So, Deskup's doin' this tournament where a buncha yahoos submitted fleets to try and beat the doritos offa him. S'all AI controlled, but from what I've heard there's some pretty great submissions. The win condition is to beat Deskup with the cheapest fleet possible.

The whole big tournament is bein' streamed and hosted by yours truly at https://www.twitch.tv/moddedlaharl. Thaago'll be cohostin' though, so no worries, if y'can't stand me you've got him! I wouldn't blame you.

It's happenin' at 18:00 GMT today, otherwise known as 'in about fifty minutes'. Should probably make this post further in advance next time really.

Cohosting is fun, I get to give my opinions/shout about stuff without actually doing any work before hand! :D

Unless I'm mistaken the matches will be from most expensive to least: so first we'll see the big fleets taking on the omegas, then the smaller, more ambitious fleets gambling for the win.

And a twist: the players aren't allowed SO or officers, so it should be a real test of fleetbuilding to take the omegas out!

The tournament mod is working and out, though fleet tester is something different. There's a download available on the unofficial Discord if you want to use it yourself.

Congrats to Peach Patrol for winning! Several cheaper fleets got close, but just couldn't overcome the Omega threat. Thanks and congrats to Deskup for organizing and running a successful tournament, and thanks to Laharl for streaming!

It was a nice even if I missed most of it. Hope there'll be a fleet breakdown/analysis post done, there's some interesting stuff that was there.

Wait, how did I miss this? Where was it? Where does it get announced..oh nevermind it was a post in General Discussion, Ludd Forsake me  :P
And how does Thaago sound like? Does he start bouncing every time he sees a ship with Harpoons?

Hm. I'll have to follow ModdedLaharl on Twitch, altough I've got to admit I'm not hanging around in that Former Bathtub Streaming Service platform as often as I used to.

Arranging holidays in an embrace with the Starsector is priceless.
