Does this mean that everyone will be in contact with each other ????

No, not at first. But once you make contact with another race the only way to lose contact is either to lose all your planets, or be cut off from them by someone closing warp points all the warp points between you and them.

I honestly don't think any of the games will Last long enough for the second option to come into play. At least not in the early rounds certainly. I only included that as an official position to prevent someone "turtleing up" and closing all the warp points and building systems shield generators and thereby guaranteeing their survival.

Technically I suppose you could do that with part of your empire and leave a single planet outside, thus maintaining contact but still violating the rule requiring all systems to have a chain of open warp points. In the unlikely event someone attempt such a manuver I will simply declare them eliminated.

Hey, count me in. And no Fyron, I'll win! Well most likely not but I gotta have some self confidence right?

Another great thing about this format is truely anybody can win. You can play aggresivly and try to knock out the first guy you meet. Or play defensivly and ride it our till someone else buys it each round. And even if you aren't a very good player you can make it deep into the tourney by being good at making alliances and political stuff. And late in the tourney a lucky break here or there and who knows what might happen? All the "Favorites" could get knocked out early in the tournament for that matter.

A brilliant concept! I have to be in that one!

Assuming I and He plays, can we change the rules of the first round to include:

Team Play Everyone Against Askan := True

How does it work?

Will all the details be given on this thread...or do we need to access another one?

And where do I sign up?
