[young jacinth]

You can set the ion to autofire and it will spawn fireing without cr

[spark prairie]

😮

[short tartan]

I don't know how I could have gone for a ram, tape positioned so well, I need someone to run me through anti trap training

[young jacinth]

Forbidden optimisation tournament knowledge

[hazy brook]

i play enough dom to know trap positions lol

[short tartan]

yeah

[spark prairie]

ultra mini ion turret (capactatior is to allow it to shoot)

[young jacinth]

You 2-3 openings but they all were not great Ill admit that

[short tartan]

traps are my worst archetype to play and play against

[young jacinth]

Why the cap though?

[spark prairie]

so it doesn't instantly run out of power

[hazy brook]

geo it spawns in with power

[spark prairie]

ik

[hazy brook]

so make it even better worse

[spark prairie]

not enough tho

[spark prairie]

????

[fast oracle]

lmao the nules

nukes

[young jacinth]

Those nukes were illegal

[fast oracle]

they were deff manual nukes

[desert sky]

sush

[fast oracle]

no theyre not illegal

[hazy brook]

why are they illegal

[spark prairie]

smallest laser turret possible (there is only 1 crew)

[hazy brook]

nope

[granite river]

Uh oh ,_,

[fast oracle]

i honestly don't know either

[spark prairie]

????

[hazy root]

Is it not best of 3 ?

[fast oracle]

i think "illegal nukes" should be allowed too

[gilded spindle]

checking for illegal nukes

[hazy brook]

KABAM

[hazy root]

Oh okay

[fast oracle]

oki

[desert sky]

it's something that was left unpatched for years

at this point it's intended

[spark prairie]

smallest ***LASER *** turret possible

[gilded spindle]

once nukes have a 360 fire radius I'll allow it

[fast oracle]

in my opinion it's intended

[raven fern]

Walt said it wasn't if I remember correctly

[hazy brook]

ok still i can make smaller

[fast oracle]

fine

[gilded spindle]

Walt has quite literally said its not intended

[granite river]

Oh heck ://///

[spark prairie]

it has to work too

you could do this ig

[hazy brook]

tada

[fast oracle]

how are these nukes illegal and locking allowed fine your call

[desert sky]

#1020489415476396043 message

[spark prairie]

load it in as a ship png

I dare you

[fast oracle]

oki :3

[hazy brook]

ok (explode the charge)

[raven fern]

The same way it has been for previous tournaments. Locking was deemed an interesting mechanic and illegal nukes were deemed not so

[fast oracle]

yeah i'm just an activist for manual control of nukes i know it's tough for you 2 💜

it's why i stopped using nion,

[hazy brook]

this is why i dont use nukes

[short tartan]

did i make any other mistakes?

[raven fern]

Good news is that in a future rebalance mod tournament we don't need to worry about illegal nukes

[fast oracle]

fine

[spark prairie]

this is WEAK

mine is only 3k DOLLAR

[hazy brook]

explode the charge

[granite river]

I feel like "illegal nukes" should be allowed for the same reason that locking is allowed

[spark prairie]

I have to build that EVERY TIME I want a smol

only 3k

your ship is WEAK

[young jacinth]

Not sure. I think you might have been able to get a better angle from the beginning but idk. You did pretty well. Its a though matchup

[fast oracle]

i've succesfully sneaked in a couple of times illegal nukes in tourneys

[short tartan]

ty

[hazy brook]

who is weak here

[granite river]

Locking directly violates thruster deadzone

[spark prairie]

you wasted 12k just for that

is it really worth it?

[fast oracle]

yeah i disagree it's more powerful but fine

[hazy brook]

who needs 12K

[spark prairie]

me

you can make like 4 of my ships with that money

[granite river]

I don't disagree that locking is cool I just don't like that players can get beamed for something that they may not know about

[hazy brook]

how do you get the crew in

[spark prairie]

how do you get your crew in

[fast oracle]

oh snow definitely knows about that

[spark prairie]

black magic

duh

[hazy brook]

fair

[short tartan]

i knew tape was gonna play rails, thought it was gonna be a TB rail so was worried about using a flak wall

[hazy brook]

i knew you were weak to traps and that you thought it was going to be a tb rail

so i used traps instead

[fast oracle]

wp snow

[raven fern]

gg xsnow

[short tartan]

dang

[spark prairie]

gg

[granite river]

well done sno :D

[short tartan]

I was out planned

[hazy root]

Dang snow wp, I was sure you would play traps or morbiter

[desert sky]

playing the wildcard was a good call

[short tartan]

I'm never not going to use a flak wall again :3

[hazy root]

Absolutely, wp, gl in turney

[desert sky]

you too!

[fast oracle]

my problem with "illegal nukes" is the name

if you call them illegal of course they shouldnt be allowed

[hazy root]

those side nukes are pain

[gilded spindle]

You can blame saris for that

[short tartan]

if anything at least I'm consistent, last tournament I also got 1-2 and got a buy in a round

[gilded spindle]

but realistically its based on if its actually fun, is it interesting and unique?

[fast oracle]

i think so, they're vital for rammers with side nukes and a natural way to play if you use manual weapons control

it's your call though

[gilded spindle]

its not of the same calibre as locking, explosion guns, pikes, nuke flingers etc

[trim anchor]

who won the losers bracket?

[gilded spindle]

stil ongoing

[fast oracle]

not over yet

[trim anchor]

got it

[spark prairie]

wait guessing I don't, but do I get a 3rd chance or something

[trim anchor]

who remaining?

[fast oracle]

https://challonge.com/g1eev95q

[trim anchor]

next tournament :)

[spark prairie]

oh

[vague brook]

I love the squib.

[trim anchor]

sadly i didn't meet my goal of not getting last place

[fast oracle]

yes :3

[trim anchor]

but i still took a fair amount of experience away

[fast oracle]

"can't mine rock so i mine you"

[raven fern]

Too op

[fast oracle]

gg tape

[granite river]

wp tape

[hazy brook]

ok so i dont stay

[desert sky]

i did not knew we was under the glare of a paragon

[hazy brook]

say whaat

oh nvm slowking is one

[gilded spindle]

You never know when they watch

I'm not

[hazy brook]

wait what

should be

what paragon?

[gilded spindle]

vilda

[hazy brook]

ah

[hazy brook]

oh wait im dumb

why did i think that was someone else lol

hold up is my next game gonna be a bo3?

im too lazy to see myself

[hazy root]

Dang I'm still surprised how this ion rammer was agile

[short tartan]

@desert sky commentators are wondering pronouns

[hazy root]

ohhhh

[granite river]

I'm laughing but only because they can re

[fast oracle]

ye

[short tartan]

same

[granite river]

sno that was amazing :D

[hazy root]

ouch

[granite river]

So proud

[hollow socket]

Hmm

[hazy brook]

i wish illegal mines were allowed (and i wish they still worked)

[granite river]

Sno teach me your intimidation strategies <-<

[fast oracle]

you have to destroy your blasters first

[hazy root]

What a nice duel

[granite river]

Oh heckkkkkkk

Nooooo that was so close

[desert sky]

what did i do

[granite river]

That moment when you told tape "I have my pick" sounded so ominous somehow haha

[fast oracle]

welp blaze vs tape

[desert sky]

i'm glad i got this far

[granite river]

You did really good sno :p

[desert sky]

this this is over i can finally post Mischief now :P

thanks alot to @granite river who helped me optimizing it, without em i wouldn't have won against Luna

[fast oracle]

very good avoider

i didn't understand why you werent adding mines to them if you were having trouble with rammers

[granite river]

You've inspired me to make a mine avoider of my own :p

[spark prairie]

I may actually take you up on that offer, I only really know the basics

[gilded spindle]

who won round 1?

[spark prairie]

idk

[gilded spindle]

tape?

[raven fern]

yes

[desert sky]

because it took away 4 hours of my life and i did not had time before

what else

[short tartan]

yay!

[fast oracle]

rift ping me if you host a creative for geo some day

[hazy root]

2/2

Well played !

[granite river]

@naive lion Congrats!!!

[sterile flame]

Congrats @naive lion

[hazy root]

To both of you @naive lion and @hazy brook

[vague brook]

very nice tourney

[surreal pecan]

Oh there's an active tournament going on?

Wow.

Oh and someone won

I'm just in time.

GG GAMEKNIGHT even though I have zero layers of context.

[short tartan]

good job to gameknight

[short tartan]

if you want you can dm me and we can set up a time

[spark prairie]

ssure

[raven fern]

@naive lion Congrats!

[naive lion]

i was lowkey happy when tape beat u cuz i didnt think i could beat you again xD

[vague brook]

@raven fern @gilded spindle BTW, you guys did a great job hosting! Sounded like a real test of endurance.

[raven fern]

Same! I didn't want to go through two best of 5 haha!

[fast oracle]

gg gameknight, deserved. Thank you for hosting slow and blaze 💜

[raven fern]

Jokes aside, tape beat me fair and square so well played!

[naive lion]

ye tape surprised us all i think

[raven fern]

Tell me about it, dude is meme'ing his way through the tournament and almost winning. I don't think I need a round of testing for the rebalance mod now to determine if rails are in need of a buff haha

[gilded spindle]

very well done to all participants, and congrats on winning GK

[desert sky]

well played!

[desert sky]

yeah i agree i should have consider using my traps more

[young jacinth]

I shouldnt have picked something that gets hardcountered

[raven fern]

So you shouldn't have picked anything? 😆

[young jacinth]

Exactly

[raven fern]

200iq. can't lose if you don't play!

[hazy brook]

why didnt i think of that

[raven fern]

Your opponent can't destroy your ship if you destroy it yourself first! I just had to clip this

[short tartan]

i strategized fearing flak walls

won't make that mistake again

[upbeat ridge]

what happened why the name mention

[hazy brook]

(press alt+f to focus and lock rotation)

[forest cedar]

Is friendly fire on or smth?

[vocal cloak]

If you target yourself it will friendly fire

Other wise no

Same thing like chopping of your own frontal armor with aimable ions

[desert sky]

@gilded spindle @raven fern my pronouns are he/his.
watchin the replay & while i don't usually correct people, tbh i don't really care about pronouns, but i've felt some discomfort when you started to stutter about it during your commentating.

although i do think the "I mean God knows--" by slowking is pretty funny xd

[hollow socket]

Hmmm

[surreal pecan]

Simply a genius strategy.

[gilded spindle]

It’s unfortunate that we had to stop on it, though since we were corrected on it before we wanted to get it right

[upbeat ridge]

😓 sorry snow

[vocal cloak]

I think its best to just stick with names and not deal with pronouns, it will be abit awkward

[fast oracle]

yeah

[vocal cloak]

Using they/them is 2nd best choice but sometimes invite unecessary arguing, also abit confusing if your english is garbage

[fast oracle]

they them is fine if you use it for everyone you don't know too yep

[desert sky]

aaaa i do not want to start this again
i don't care say whatever you want but please pick one over the other

(even if arbitrary)

[hazy root]

That's true, English is not my mother tongue. I guess it's also the case of many people here. That's why I stick with names because using pronouns is a source of mistakes and don't want offense people.

[short tartan]

maybe the solution is putting your pronouns in your name or profile

[gilded spindle]

not the place for this conversation

[surreal pecan]

Oo wow Gameknight rocking that red drip, GGs my man.

[upbeat ridge]

this is why i sleep on tournaments
ggk

[near robin]

Do the submissions for the design contest need to be submitted today, or is the 1. of February acceptable too?

[icy oxide]

https://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/winter?iso=20240201T00&p0=3919&msg=Design+Contest+Deadline

[near robin]

Thx!

[hazy brook]

how do i post a ship to be in the design contest?

ah nvm i see (and ofc im late)

[near robin]

There will be another one, as they take place frequently. Will surely be announced here.

[real bay]

i should start figuring out orbiters

they seem useful from the tourney im watching on yt

[raven fern]

If you want to learn more about them and other PVP archetypes then I highly recommend you check out these links:

[hybrid tulip]

Who can create a tournament ? I would like to make a build competition for artistic refineries, in 3 round for 3 ressources (or ressource group), and noted in art and cost efficiency

[young jacinth]

You have to ask a moderator

[hybrid tulip]

okay thanks

[vocal cloak]

@young jacinth are you sure this is even remotely playable?

[young jacinth]

Find out xD

Its gonna be fun at least

And yes I did test runs

Doing some games against sorail rn

[hollow socket]

it'll be a very small tournament

[hybrid tulip]

I'm playing asteroids rn lmao

[gilded spindle]

boost is going to be literally insane

[upbeat ridge]

speeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed tourney

[surreal pecan]

I ||am s||peed

[hard rover]

"ah i'll just activate my boost to get closer to the ene-" teleports 5kms into the rod

[hollow socket]

you'll boost a hole straight through the enemy ship and asteroids

[hard rover]

if you hit an asteroid you'd take it with you to the rod

[real bay]

it would be so "funny" if there was collision damage

[white apex]

good lick modding that witout lagging

[hard rover]

hits asteroid accidentally
"where is my ship???"

hella funny

[granite river]

i almost typed “lick” into the gif search but thought better of it

[white apex]

not that bad

i can probably do phase 2 today

[desert sky]

@gilded spindle @gilded spindle @gilded spindle

doc is locked ;<;

[gilded spindle]

I was fixing it

you can read now

[desert sky]

thanks sweetie

[raven fern]

Hey slow, did you forget to create a sign-up post or should we use the one from the January tournament?

[gilded spindle]

yep, it'll be reused

[desert sky]

veto sound intresting

[white apex]

@gilded spindle how r seeds given

[short tartan]

I like this ruleset :3

@gilded spindle question about the weapon veto rule, if someone wants to play a ship with that weapon are they allowed to play it but with that weapon turned off?

[white apex]

yes i love needing to make monoweapon versions of all my ships

[short tartan]

the main weapon I'm thinking of is ebs which a lot of ships have

[rain loom]

That is a really good point on a specific weapon type.

Also, I am presuming that you specifically have to choose nukes, he, mines, emp rather than just a missile launcher to negate it.

[gilded spindle]

yep, every weapon type is an option and ones that can change like missiles are each individual choices

and if you preload a missile type to negate the ban rule, that's an immediate loss

[hard rover]

we may have a problem...

why all shortt؟؟؟

add more words goddamit

[white apex]

is it allowed to prelod mines when they're banned, but switch to he immediately

or can u just not use the thpe during the whole match

[gilded spindle]

Ban means in this case to not have them at all

[hard rover]

hmmmm

[gilded spindle]

so just save a new one without mines for example

[hard rover]

can i ban ions and then just hope that the enemy won't use dc rammers?

i can win this with a railfan! yay

also i assume nre is counted as a bug

[hard rover]

actually i'll just use either on kine or luna

luna gets ions veto'd and kine gets dc veto'd

unless luna has a deckcannon rammer that i do not know about

or i can just veto dc and use mines

that also works

[gilded spindle]

I'll ask walt what of the pvp viable bugs will be banned

[hard rover]

360 ik is banned but nre i don't remember

[gilded spindle]

Though if you think of NRE in a basic way, it's not a bug

its just shooting nukes at a small target that they'll inevitably miss and shoot out forward

[hard rover]

i'd be using it like on this ship

(it has preload mines btw)

[gilded spindle]

I understand

[naive lion]

Are tb and pd bannable or no

[gilded spindle]

all weapons includes them

tb can be argued for, but PD has an attack setting so it is straightup a weapon

[hard rover]

i'd count tb as a weapon

tho banning it is kinda worthless

if you fear tb rails just ban rails

[granite river]

sumo

[hard rover]

who even uses that?

blaze apparently

[white apex]

tb is not in a weapon tab though

and pd is in a weapon category

[raven fern]

Here's hoping that locking remains. Would be a shame to cut off that path of creativity after it has been allowed for half a dozen tournaments

[rain loom]

I felt bad for my opponent who's locking effort messed up twice. Although I almost lost due to horrible piloting.

[raven fern]

Yeah that was unfortunate. It was either due to the lag spikes during that match or there was a flaw with the lock as if it works once then it works every time

[gilded spindle]

I'll be editing the document briefly,

[short tartan]

it was a flaw in design, they had structure that prevented a lock

[short tartan]

any response?

[gilded spindle]

All exploits are on the table, aside from the 360 nuke bug

[short tartan]

nice

[sterile flame]

It had around a 1/48ish chance of failure

[short tartan]

i dont understand the reasoning behind this, if a weapon gets banned and you bring it anyways (but turned off) your at a disadvantage, why disallow a disadvantage, if the person uses the weapon in match they loose, just allow then to carry dead weight

[gilded spindle]

I dont see a reason why I should allow a banned weapon in the game

if anything it's an advantage

if you want to use your avoider still when ebs are banned, just make a hl version

[naive lion]

The problem is not everyone is gonna want to build a bunch of new ships just in case one of their hybrids' weapons gets banned.

[short tartan]

i dont understand why you think its an advantage but alr

[naive lion]

Ships like ul nukes can get banned by both pd and nukes, to combat this people are expected to build variations of all of these hybrid type ships

[gilded spindle]

I mean that's a fair way to put it

I think this was polled before in favor of allowing banned weapons if they are turned off

[naive lion]

It would just allow more people to use the ships they want without the time investment of ship modifications just for a rule

[gilded spindle]

I suppose that's fair, though should I poll it or rather just set it as such in the rules

[short tartan]

i mean im on the side of just adding it but a poll would make sense

[sterile flame]

For preloaded Weapons I assume you'ld have to fire them when you spawn in?

[desert sky]

360 nukes are not allowed? (to have it clear)

[gilded spindle]

No 360 nukes

[short tartan]

fire them or change ammo type

i might go through after the tournement and see what weapons are banned the most

my hypothesis is disruptors

[sterile flame]

I'm thinking either nukes or mines.

[short tartan]

reasoning: they are one of the most common weapons, making appearances on many ship types
by banning them you weaken avoiders, 95% of ions, most walls, UL nuke flak

[hard rover]

im banning ions but that's just because i plau rails

[white apex]

i lied

[rain loom]

If I am matched with you it might just be rails banned.

[young jacinth]

I dont have pd on my ul nukers

[young jacinth]

So pip abuse is allowed? xD

[raven fern]

Something else to look forward to, in typical fashion we should expect the modular thruster update to drop on the day of the tournament 😆

[naive lion]

Bruh, it was just an example of a hybrid ship

[young jacinth]

I would maybe include a list in the doc?

[young jacinth]

Just wanted to unnecessarly state my opinion of pd on ul nukers

[naive lion]

understandable, have a good day

[gilded spindle]

im rules, the bug rule was changed to be "Exploits are allowed unless deemed to be unsportsmanlike or unfun to watch"

which pip bug is both

[young jacinth]

Ah ok

[raven fern]

Pip exploit ❌
Nuke exploit ❌
Locking exploit ✅
NRE ✅
Crew pretask ✅
Mine instant arming ✅

[gilded spindle]

NRE, technically crew pretask

mine instant arming

[raven fern]

The last 3 are authorized I imagine?

[gilded spindle]

yep

[young jacinth]

None of those are exploits imo

Ok NRE could maybe be considered one

[gilded spindle]

two are creative solutions to non-problems and the other is just inconsistent

[young jacinth]

Still disagree with inconsistent lol

[raven fern]

Inconsistent if you haven't built it purposefully to do so

[young jacinth]

I built a mine avoider recently and the timings seemed fairly consistent

And I dont even really have a lot of practice with mines

[raven fern]

Only when you're going at full speed I imagine?

[gilded spindle]

I made classic cannon traps in modern but with no armour and speed recently

[young jacinth]

I mean I have a feeling for how fast they are going to arm

[gilded spindle]

but yea, mines need 120 for arm afaik

[raven fern]

Yeah that's one of the ranges of speed where it's possible to do so

[young jacinth]

My avoider only goes ~105 straight backwards and it works

Its a very large range

[gilded spindle]

slow much?

[young jacinth]

?

[gilded spindle]

but I guess, my avoider does 115 ish and never arms

it might just have minor sweet spots

[short tartan]

whats NRE?

[gilded spindle]

Nuke range extension

[short tartan]

ah

[young jacinth]

That would be very strange. Ill have to test this more

[short tartan]

is mine instant arming just go a certain speed?

[young jacinth]

Thats what I think at least

[raven fern]

There are multiple ranges of speed where it's possible to instantly arm them. We know that around 120m/s it's possible and according to Plaus it is as well around 105m/s

I think 75m/s too

[short tartan]

alr

[young jacinth]

Can you reproduce that?

[spring fable]

I think I got one to go at 90 smthn once or twice

[raven fern]

I remember doing it around that speed a while ago, cant say for sure it's 75m/s. I'd have to check again.
Discovering every possible speed where instantly arming mines is possible shouldn't be difficult. Just time consuming to iterate through let's say 50m/s to 180m/s

[young jacinth]

I just find it very strange that it would happen at different speeds. I just assumed its a range ~105-120. But i currently have a lot of time so I could actually run the tests in the next few days.

[hazy brook]

wait mine instant arming is a thing???

[short tartan]

yeah, iirc mines arm when their speed is under a certain threshold, so if you cancel out momentum they then stop instantly

[hazy brook]

ah ok

already knew this with some mine kiter stuff

also im done for in the next tournament lol someone can just ban rails

[hollow socket]

What if we choose to ban thrusters during the match?

[upbeat ridge]

bans huge thrusters

[hard rover]

it should be rails banned

[desert sky]

what happen if the player only have ship of one weapon and it get banned? it's fairly common in tournaments to have a player with a single ship
do they just get disqualified

[hard rover]

can't they just use another ship? if not then they just turn it off and try to not die ig or i just didn't read the rules properly

[gilded spindle]

If you only have one ship for a tournament that’s meant to bring variety you’re not playing to win

Just have two ships

[desert sky]

ah yes they will just turn weapon off

[hard rover]

just don't play the ship with the banned weapon

as slowk said make another ship, have some variety

[trim anchor]

@gilded spindle could you tell me which weapons are banned on the tournament on the 24th?

please be mines

[young jacinth]

Read the document

The players decide before every match

[hard rover]

iirc each player picks a weapon

i have enough time to get good at something other than rails

avoider players are y'all willing to teach me? 🥺

[young jacinth]

Of course

[white apex]

@gilded spindle how are seeds determined

[granite river]

Yes :p

[hard rover]

i'll start by making 40%-66% weapons avoider

[white apex]

i think i could just attend w/ last tourney's ships

*that i was in

since they were also build for weapon choice

[gilded spindle]

Seeds are based on the excelsior database first, and expectancy to win second

[white apex]

wdym

what is the process

[gilded spindle]

say if 1 paragon, 1 expert and 1 adept signed up, paragon gets seed 1, expert seed 2 and adept seed 3

[white apex]

i see

[gilded spindle]

and if they dont fit into that I'll draw my own judgement

[white apex]

what about people not in excelsior?

[gilded spindle]

They'll be seeded on expectancy to win, basically how I and other hosts see their chances of perfect winning the tourney over others

[white apex]

sooo basically the hosts just eyeballing it

[raven fern]

Pretty much, same way it was done in previous tournaments with Saris

[hazy root]

First lesson, don't take an avoider

[hard rover]

lmao

[gilded spindle]

avoiders are too fun not to take

[hard rover]

i'll take an ultraheavy nuke orbi with me anyways

[short tartan]

take all the ships

[hard rover]

however i cannot guarantee that i can use them properly

[upbeat ridge]

literal avoider pilot going back to the fort college days lmao

[granite river]

nuki if you're serious about wanting to learn avoiders I'm happy to teach you a bit

[snow seal]

ok

[hard rover]

alrighty (i wasn't really serious but tbh i still kinda wanna learn)

[granite river]

learning avoiders is really hard you better be quite serious lol

but basics aren’t too bad

[hard rover]

ok forget about avoiders i've failed to build one so i am going to assume iam going to suck at it, i'll just bring a morbiter or something with me and hope no one bans rails

[granite river]

Well if they known you main rails they’re going to ban rails

[hollow socket]

I play exclusively rails,

[short tartan]

better diversify before the tournament

[hollow socket]

Nah, I'm sure it'll be fine

I'll have someone lend me their non rail ship if rails get banned and improvise

[short tartan]

can't use other people's ships iirc

[young jacinth]

If you play me Ill gladly give you an avoider

[hybrid tulip]

You can't use other people ships for the 0 drag tournament ?

[young jacinth]

Yes you cant

[hybrid tulip]

Then it's my ship I was just heavily inspired by something I found on exelsior

[granite river]

avoider? 👀

[hybrid tulip]

Avoiders are bad in 0 drag

You can't change direction easily

[granite river]

Ah, right

,_,

[hybrid tulip]

They aren't unplayable

just not as good as usually

It's like driving a supercar with no brakes

[young jacinth]

I heavily disagree

There are better things but avoiders are decent

[granite river]

It seems like low rampup would be less of an advantage

Also, rails exist ,_,

[hybrid tulip]

Ahah yes

you can't outurn anything now

[young jacinth]

The main advantage is that you can face the enemy while slowing down

also low rampup probably is very good

[hybrid tulip]

cruisers

Also, low rampup literally means nothing, once you accelerate to certain speed, it won't allow to change direcion any faster

worse, the lack of engine power will literally tacle you

[hollow socket]

I'm not playing the modded tournament

[young jacinth]

but what if you need to slow down and face an enemy 90 degree from you?

[young jacinth]

Was talking about the ragular one with ou

[hollow socket]

Hmmm

[hybrid tulip]

Why the fuck would you want to slow down

[hollow socket]

Because

[young jacinth]

Becuase I dont wnat to fly into the rod?

[hybrid tulip]

rod ?

[young jacinth]

ring of death

[hybrid tulip]

oh

[raven fern]

I can't remember if a straight answer was given for TB regarding whether or not we are considering it as a weapon for the tournament

[young jacinth]

We didnt. This was the last statement

[desert sky]

teaching an archetype that need innovations is hard

[hard rover]

thats why i will stick with what i already use

[hard rover]

i mean not everyone knows

and then again, rammer users won't ban rails anyways because they counter them

however anyone with ss would ban rails immediately

[desert sky]

hey why won't you make a tb rail

[hard rover]

i already have some but i mostly forgor about them when i wrote that

thanks for reminding people will ban rails either way

ig time to surrender to ulnuke speed meta...

unless someone bans nukes instead of rails that is

i will live a railfan main and i will die a railfan main

[short tartan]

tournament in 8 days!!!

[hollow socket]

Hmmm

[desert sky]

Oh my Gosh thanks you for the reminder °~°

I don't think i will partake in it -
- o-or atleast not seriously ><

[snow seal]

oh wait

nope still busy

[real bay]

8 days???? wowza!

[rain loom]

It is sooner than that now.

[short tartan]

six days

[young jacinth]

@hard rover

[hard rover]

uh oh i forgor about it

wait lemme activate mods

probably should put me later in the list or something

[vocal cloak]

helo

[young jacinth]

ok then @vocal cloak @hybrid tulip

@flint hound you also signed up just as a reminder

[hybrid tulip]

Yes

I'm here

Let me launch with mods

[surreal pecan]

Oops I forgor to sign up on the hyperspeed tourney.

Oh well, not like I had any experience with those mods anyways.

[young jacinth]

you wanna join?

you still could

@hard rover

[surreal pecan]

No thanks, by the time I turn on the game and then the mods the heat death of the universe will happen.

[young jacinth]

@hard rover

you stay lol

[hard rover]

oh lol

wait can i edit quick ship

[young jacinth]

ok

[hard rover]

it's overprice by 800

[young jacinth]

quickly

@flint hound

[flint hound]

Ah right

One sec, loading up game

[young jacinth]

@vocal cloak @hard rover

[young jacinth]

@vocal cloak

[hollow socket]

Hmmm

[young jacinth]

@flint hound @hard rover

[vocal cloak]

what is starmade lol

also this si abit much isnt it plaus

how many self win tourneys at this point?

[surreal pecan]

Plaus proving how good he is at his own game.

[hybrid tulip]

lmao

I was plaus close to be a champion

Plaus is another level of brain

I managed to beat him once in a FFA

with point defense ahah

[surreal pecan]

I mean I've beaten him a lot but I'm not as good as him.

Because I am innately not a tryhard I guess.

[granite river]

Next tourney ruleset:

1. Plaus

/j

[surreal pecan]

Plaus is banned for being too good at his game.

[desert sky]

Again?

That so funny

[young jacinth]

I didnt edit that setting so I guess youtube choose for me lol

[young jacinth]

I hid a +1000÷ damage modifier that only applies to me in the mod files

[granite river]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/314115739160281088/1079850828120207441/251AF7DB-6BAA-41DA-9D4B-1F896544E3E9.gif

[short tartan]

watching the vod now

[desert sky]

I wish we had tournament highlight lmao

[surreal pecan]

Welp whatever it is it's not canonically a Walternate Realities®️ property.

[short tartan]

31 minutes in
initial D theme starts playing

[vocal cloak]

Its honestly agonizing lol

trying to get the ship to move where you want to go

[short tartan]

no drag good

[flint hound]

Yea lmao

Especially when you are playing at 5 fps so you have no idea how fast your ship is actually moving

Then shoot past the enemy, into the rod to never be seen again

[surreal pecan]

I wonder what the module thruster + no drag would do to this universe.

[hard rover]

game about making spaceships, idk how youtube managed to confuse it with cosmo since they're sooo different from eachother

[hard rover]

tbh the best plays ended up just not moving

because if you start moving at anything faster than 5m/s you'd end up in rod before you can even fire once

[short tartan]

speed of light probably

[sterile flame]

@gilded spindle Does vetoing a weapon apply to both players or just the opponent?

[gilded spindle]

just the opponent

[fast oracle]

@gilded spindle can we veto tractor beams

[fast oracle]

can we veto control rooms

[short tartan]

they aren't a weapon so no

[hollow socket]

technically

it is a weapon

[fast oracle]

I do consider them a weapon even if they don't do damage

so that's why i'm asking

[hollow socket]

if you have none, you cannot deal damage, and weapons deal damage, therefore it is a weapon

[fast oracle]

I think it's reasonable to ban tb

[short tartan]

agreed

[rain loom]

The real question is would explosive charges count as a weapon? I hope not for hooks/combind ships. (I think tb is more of a weapon type compared typically with explosive charges.)

[gilded spindle]

You can weaponise reactors and that’s not bannable

As of now I feel TB are a movement option and not a weapon so for now, not going to be bannable

[upbeat ridge]

wait til someone brings a sumo ship

[white apex]

also tb is not under a weapon category

[surreal pecan]

Very bad choice, Air effectively cheesed this decision with three individual specific ship-counters last time we did this.

(Big asterisk, I am not fully aware about this tournament as I've been living in a comfy boulder for last couple months, whatever I'm saying might be completely wrong)

[gilded spindle]

They brought three ships with similar counters and such, and you can do a similar thing with deck cannons and ions

[young jacinth]

This tournament format is very different. I would always ban rails over tb

[surreal pecan]

Oh so you ban a weapon type over banning a ship and having one weapon type.

Veeery interesting.

[young jacinth]

Wdym with "and having one weapon type?"

[surreal pecan]

*Per ship

I mean per set.

So like you can't use the same weapon on two ships.

It was a tourney Saris did a couple months ago.

Also wow @young jacinth #tournament-announcements message This is such a phenomenal and fun idea for a tournament, I applaud you.

What is the settings?

[young jacinth]

forgor to attach rip

[surreal pecan]

I think having a large map with big distance between players would be good, just so they have time to spread out and strategize.

[young jacinth]

Tahnks for reminding me lol

[surreal pecan]

No worries.

[hard rover]

railorbiter ftw

[young jacinth]

Acutally yea Im gonna change that. good idea

[hard rover]

time to break relationships with uls and shit :D

i'll bring bad internet to make sure i control the pacing (lmao just joking around 8 players guaranteed bad internet anyways)

[surreal pecan]

Nuki, pst, do we secretly tea up

[hard rover]

to the dms

[surreal pecan]

||🍵||

[hard rover]

🍵

[surreal pecan]

Tea up xd

[hard rover]

tea parties create teams

[surreal pecan]

I'm joking obviously, the fun of this kind of tournament is mind games on the spot, instead of pre-planning.

[hazy brook]

hehe backstabby tournament go brr

[hard rover]

backs tea abby

🍵 shall be the symbol of all trickery

[raven fern]

8 railfan orbiters in a lobby, this will be chaotic

[hard rover]

lmao

[short tartan]

easy sora win time /j

[hard rover]

lmao

i will not reveal my strats

but they will be funny

[short tartan]

imo people will bring railfans, rail spinners and msf

[hard rover]

they will also bring tbr and ships that are better with help

[hazy brook]

wish i could join but its a bit early for me to not be half asleep lol

[hard rover]

i will design a specific anti railship

(deckcannon rammer)

[young jacinth]

@hazy root pwo

[hard rover]

wrong channel plaus but sure ig

[young jacinth]

lol ups

I thought I clicked it

[vocal cloak]

https://tenor.com/view/pirates-des-caraïbes2-pirates-of-the-caribbean2-pirates-menace-threat-gif-19754159

[surreal pecan]

I think this is the kind of tournament were redundancy of sides and back armor might genuinely be invaluable.

[hard rover]

you know what encompasses all of these??

it's railspinners!

[upbeat ridge]

two coordinated ion rammers and it's down for the count

the real issue is politics

[hard rover]

i can deal with the politics

im barely holding myself from dumping all my possible strategies pregame here

[young jacinth]

You only need 1 though?

[upbeat ridge]

there's the squib

if everyone's too busy, it can pick

[young jacinth]

I dont think sorail would play the railspinner with squib

[surreal pecan]

Yeah it can be very tempting to share your smart ideas and mind games, but... The issue is it ruins those ideas in of itself as suddently everyone can use them and the playing field becomes both more unpredictable yet more predictable at the same time to its detriment (Fancy way of saying your strategy loses surprise element and thus power). It's like dissecting a frog, you share its ins and outs but you kill it in the process.

[hard rover]

pretty much why i am holding myself from it

all the strats are soooo coool and interesting i love this tournament

[vocal cloak]

should i troll or should i take this seriously hmm?

probably troll

[surreal pecan]

Yes kine we need more people like you.

Tomfoolery is the best form of trickery and mind games.

[vocal cloak]

anyway

since this is a plaus torney

we make sure he wins yea?

so we can continue the streak

of him rigging games

[surreal pecan]

(Let's all team up against him just so he doesn't get to win again, this is getting out of hand)

[vocal cloak]

sure

lol

[raven fern]

Picks reactors pikes, choose to screw one player in particular. Mission accomplished

[vocal cloak]

i was thinking just being super annoying and stall but that works too

[raven fern]

Bring an UL minelayer and spam mines in the center 😆

[vocal cloak]

i was thinking of a literal 1.5m block of armor with a CR and SR

[surreal pecan]

Would work so much better if mines had 8 minute lifetime as it used to

back in my day 🧓

[raven fern]

Oh you're evil. Whoever tries to kill you is serving themselves up to other players

[raven fern]

I made a minelayer that can fire for 12 mins straight, should work pretty well!

[surreal pecan]

Whoever tries to kill you will be a huge backstabbing potential.

[surreal pecan]

Ohhh I have fac-based TB minelayer but it's unfinished.

[vocal cloak]

like all the ideaas in my head currently is either some stall strat or just a fuck you in particular build lol

[gilded spindle]

Well just see 150m/s rail orbiters

[hard rover]

i'll do my part

counter them with hd railfan >:3

[surreal pecan]

Again I forgot what HD railfan is.

It definitely doesn't imply 1080p

[hard rover]

according to qawa it is 1080p railfan

high damage railfan, just a typically shieldless railfan designed for maximum damage and rail length

[granite river]

cries in avoider counter

[hard rover]

avoiders when i can oneshot even when they spread all the damage

[granite river]

,_,

[surreal pecan]

What the hell is instant mine arming? Is it the thing with targeting mines to structure?

[granite river]

Launch mines at the same speed your ship is going so they instantly stop in place

Which arms them

[raven fern]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/546907635149045775/1205984057171648512/2024-02-10_22_08_45.gif

[granite river]

:p

[white apex]

why woudl that be considered an exploit lol

that is like saying momentum boosting missiles so their trajectory changes is an exploit

[granite river]

There’s not a lot of counterplay

[surreal pecan]

So it's just the going back quickly thing.

Momentum manipulation shouldn't even count as an exploit, it's literally just nukeflinging for mines.

[hazy brook]

it doesnt count as one

the checks are the allowed ones

[white apex]

could change mine behavior to time instead of speed but that has other issues

[fast oracle]

i would decrease the speed margin from 100±30 to 100±10

maybe ±5

[granite river]

having funny thoughts about building a small laser avoider in case someone bans hl

[vocal cloak]

do it

[granite river]

quick clarification question, do weapon bans happen before or after ship selection? seems to me like before but i’m not 100% sure

because a ban after could just be crippling lmao

[hard rover]

i meannnnnnn they'd ban disrupters soooo that's something

imo banning disrupters is better than banning hls

[granite river]

nah, I disagree because

I have other plans :p

hehehe

[hard rover]

hlspam

[granite river]

i wanna make someone ban hl

it would be funny

[hard rover]

if i could ban thrusters i'd just ban your ers and see what happens

[vocal cloak]

if i ban something i myself cant use it right?

[hard rover]

nope

[granite river]

ohhh it applies to both?

[vocal cloak]

idk

[hard rover]

if you ban it only your opponent wouldn't be able to use it

[granite river]

oh

damn it would’ve been crazy if it was a double ban

[vocal cloak]

@gilded spindle how does this work? if i ban something is it for both sides or only enemy?

[hard rover]

slowk clarified earlier iirc

[granite river]

hehe, i wanna play but just haven’t built stuff for it yet

[hard rover]

i can't participate either way so idk

[granite river]

would feel good to ban shit like eb lol

[granite river]

:/

[hard rover]

i sleep at 10pm due to school (weekends being thursday and friday are an exception)

[granite river]

Wanna strategize a bit for fun lol

totally not worried about getting crucial things banned and needing a backup

[granite river]

@gilded spindle question regarding launchers - if my opponent bans something like mines that i have in my missile launchers, but i have nuke parts to reload, is it acceptable to simply switch the launcher type and leave the mine parts in space?

[gilded spindle]

You can do that as long as the banned weapon is never used

[granite river]

Aye

Sweet

[short tartan]

before

[upbeat ridge]

after would be crazy lol

[granite river]

after would be hilarious

[upbeat ridge]

imagine i pick a morbi against a cg main right
they ban missiles, i ban cgs
tf even happens

[granite river]

rod

[upbeat ridge]

tru

[short tartan]

tournament tomorrow!!!

[granite river]

aaa right

[desert sky]

oh my gosh i keep forgetting

[young jacinth]

Damn this tourney is actually stacked

Im scared

[white apex]

who's in it

sign ups still available?

[short tartan]

yes

[spring fable]

Wish I could sign up but my friend had to invite me to his birthday party 🙄

[granite river]

more fun than getting counterpicked

[hazy brook]

i wish allow ship construction was on

[rain loom]

I am ready to have fun being defeated.

[desert sky]

it's still in serval hours

[upbeat ridge]

🚬 gl to all participants

[desert sky]

it's still in serval hours

[upbeat ridge]

why would i join lol i'm trash rn

[desert sky]

did i ever said you should join?!!

[hard rover]

someone ping me 1 hour before the tournament so that i can see if i can join with my current arsenal, i wanna do something really funny this tournament

im bringing a fanged fighter this tournament

i'll build a version for every weapon so that no one can possibly stop me

ik im losing but if i win by some miracle that would be soooo funny

[young jacinth]

@gilded spindle please put me late in the bracket if possible

[upbeat ridge]

felt it was implied

[desert sky]

I implied I still had time to sign up for context

[upbeat ridge]

mh fair

[short tartan]

I'm gonna ping you an hour before sign ups close fyi, so in about 2.5 hours

[surreal pecan]

Honestly a bit disappointed in myself that I'm not participating.

[short tartan]

just participate

[surreal pecan]

My hype for the tournaments kind of left alongside Saris.

:/

[short tartan]

aww that sucks

[hazy root]

Hey Nick hope someday you will get back the hype. I would really appreciate to see you again in a turney.

Seeing ships that only you build and play is always refreshing

[granite river]

I absolutely hate it when people irl try to schedule things right on top of things i’ve already put on my calendar

i might have to withdraw again but hopefully not

[hard rover]

at the tournament's time i have to play terraria multiplayer with kokice and slime, finish ftl ship and sleep

maybe i can make it though

[granite river]

you’re not :(

but i understand not feeling up to your standards

[gilded spindle]

Beating yourself about rust won’t help you derust

And besides, you’re losing nothing at all by joining aside a little time and it’s mainly for fun

Sweating profusely and trying to win is a close second though

[hard rover]

and that's why i am playing with a fanged fighter

ik i can't win because people would just ban rails for me so that i don't use my best ships so i am going full meme material

i'll end up in a blaze short

[surreal pecan]

Thanks. Your kind words almost make up for all the rage when I get beaten by a TB ion LOL

[gilded spindle]

Go make a broadside for the memes

[upbeat ridge]

oh yeah sleep is a thing

can't really afford to lose that anymore

[hard rover]

you don't sleep much anyways

go sleep rn and do tournament when you wake up

[gilded spindle]

TLDR just sleep for 10 minutes today

[surreal pecan]

Air issue.

[gilded spindle]

But realistically health is more important than cosmoteer

[desert sky]

@gilded spindle Concerning futur tournaments; how unflexible the deadline is? Like, assuming i can only arrive after 19:30 can i still sign up

[surreal pecan]

Start a game of checkers with your enemy :D

[hard rover]

lmao

[gilded spindle]

If you miss your match you automatically lose, I’ll give three minutes to join

[surreal pecan]

No really, if you're going full on fanged figther might as well try that.

[desert sky]

Well you should be asleep right now

[hard rover]

if rod wasn't real that would be sooo good

[surreal pecan]

Get them to play a game before they murder you, if you manage to do a full or even partial game of checkers at least one round you'll be my hero.

Bring fanged fighter too just in case.

[hard rover]

i have 2 rounds i can try this

[surreal pecan]

Also credit me for the board.

[hard rover]

how much does it cost?

[surreal pecan]

700K or something.

[desert sky]

But if someone asked and is placed late in the bracket, is that allowed? Plaus did it earlier

[surreal pecan]

Cheap

[hard rover]

fanged fighter as the executor

[surreal pecan]

He'll be the judge/referee of the game.

I wish I'd gotten a full chessboard running before the tournament, we could've done a full on chess tournament parody MID-TOURNAMENT

''And here comes the most fascinating part of this game folks, It's white to play, Nuki has both his queen and bishop pinned by Gameknight's... Knight, what will he do to avoid this perilous situation... And, in a magnifiscent twist of events, Nuki sacrifices THE ROOK!!!!!''

[desert sky]

And are client mods allowed

[granite river]

blaster kite gaming this tourney

[raven fern]

They are, we have no way of verifying whether or not players are using them anyway

[desert sky]

Good point.

[rain loom]

Well I know which chess streamer you follow at this point.

[gilded spindle]

thats allowed but there's only so much lower bracket

[surreal pecan]

Nah I don't watch Gotham that much, I've just seen a couple of his videos and that line is engraved in my memory.

[short tartan]

@hard rover its about an hour before the tournament, i reccomend if you want to sign up that you do it soon

[vocal cloak]

The only reason i even can join this is because i slept very early

[hollow socket]

hmmm

[granite river]

hmmm

[fast oracle]

hmmm

[short tartan]

:D

[hazy root]

Question about the ban, I think already answered, but to be sure. When you ban a weapon, it's only for the opponent right ? So if I ban nukes, I will be able to use Nukes ? I prefer to be sure 😉

[short tartan]

you could still use nukes

if you ban a weapon your opponent cannot use it but you can

[fast oracle]

yes

[willow cargo]

given its almost 15 minutes till the tourney starts i want to wish everyone good luck <3

ill be calming my nerves meanwhile

[desert sky]

@gilded spindle how late i am in the bracket

i need to eat

[hollow socket]

nah

don't eat#

[hard rover]

same

[gilded spindle]

Shuffled seeds, will tell you once I do it

[trim anchor]

hi

[short tartan]

im excited!

[hard rover]

im going to play checkers!!

[granite river]

there is some probability i'm gonna get randomly ripped out of the tourney but hopefully i go out before that happens

[hard rover]

if rails don't get banned i'll play a railfan once

[granite river]

epic stream thumbnail

[gilded spindle]

Alright, games starting

[surreal pecan]

@gilded spindle May I advice you keep all the announcements and discussions in this chat instead of the Tourney Announcements? It'd do good in both making this chat more alive and won't absolutley clog up #tournament-announcements

[gilded spindle]

Mistakes were made, redoing plaus

[surreal pecan]

Like seriously, when I try to find a past event like the DC announcements I have to trudge through 500 pages of Slowking text.

[hollow socket]

is the bracket changing?

[gilded spindle]

Okay, fixed

[raven fern]

@fast oracle

[young jacinth]

Thanks

[trim anchor]

bruh im vs gk again 💀

[surreal pecan]

Heheheheh good luck.

Now at least somebody knows how it felt when I got to face against Salephz as the first round in my first tourney :agony:

[rain loom]

She may be finishing up a game in a room.

[gilded spindle]

Luna automatically loses at :04

[hollow socket]

nice

[trim anchor]

well that is fair (referring to blaze in stream)

just a little boring that im facing the same player again

i dont mind though haha

[short tartan]

gl!

[young jacinth]

Who bans first?

[gilded spindle]

High seed bans first

[short tartan]

oh im 8th seed, nice

[young jacinth]

Thanks

[desert sky]

@granite river nooooo

[granite river]

aaaa

[desert sky]

why are we against each other

[granite river]

oh god

[trim anchor]

wait LMAO anti vs xsnow 😭

2 fellow avoider friens

[granite river]

well i know exactly what sno is going to ban lol

[desert sky]

Do you?

[granite river]

maybe

[short tartan]

rails? :3

[trim anchor]

ggs for luna

[raven fern]

@short tartan @sterile flame

[granite river]

how were seeds even chosen lmao

[hard rover]

i'm sure no one will ban rails unless they're fighting me

[granite river]

i'm 100% banning rails against you

[desert sky]

how come an adept above an expert

[young jacinth]

Wait higher seed is lower number?

[gilded spindle]

yea

seed #1 is highest

it was seeded in a hurry

[short tartan]

damm it

[granite river]

unlucky

[desert sky]

@short tartan Ya lose against an AI
Really unlucky of you

[short tartan]

yeah

hate kites with a passion, wish i went flak wall

[desert sky]

Context: that a sarcastic joke in reference to the AI tournament hosted a while back

[sterile flame]

That's what this ship was based on.

[granite river]

starmade returns

[desert sky]

[short tartan]

lol

[hollow socket]

don't worry i won't use my kites

[fast oracle]

awww rift

[fast oracle]

ban mines :3

[trim anchor]

well that game went perfectly

[short tartan]

oof

[granite river]

ouch

[short tartan]

yeah

[gilded spindle]

@hazy root vs @hard rover

[trim anchor]

in my head i was thinking ban rails

[hazy root]

omw

[trim anchor]

but to be cautious i decided to ban mines

[granite river]

mines were a good call

[trim anchor]

i didn't think gk would bring the same ship as last game

[granite river]

but rails prob better

[trim anchor]

after be banned nukes i was kinda scrambling

[fast oracle]

rip coco

[trim anchor]

oh well

approaching his ship like that was a fatal mistake

i should have tried to orbit

[fast oracle]

oof i'm too close to gameknight in the brackets

i expect to lose against him tbh

[granite river]

rails for nuki, flak for nightlord, classic

LMAO nuki

[short tartan]

PFFFFT

[fast oracle]

LMAO

[granite river]

this is the greatest tournament pick of all time

[short tartan]

agreed

[vocal cloak]

lmao

[trim anchor]

based nuki

[granite river]

this is amazing

[gilded spindle]

rule ammendment for now, building up

[trim anchor]

YEAHHHH

[fast oracle]

hell yes

[vocal cloak]

disco paint job wooooooo

[granite river]

i did NOT expect to see checkers today

[short tartan]

agreed

[sterile flame]

Good thing I'm not fighting Nuki,I don't know how to play checkers,just chess.

[short tartan]

oops

does the winner of this go on to the next round?

[fast oracle]

only if night agrees

[raven fern]

Tune in for some epic competitive gameplay!

[desert sky]

One could argue night can easily kill nuki right before he lose

[short tartan]

true

[fast oracle]

ooof

[granite river]
