Unoptimal time management

Yeah, for somebody who can't shut up about all things ''perfectly optimal,'' he sure can't use his free time optimally LULLULLUL

6pm on a Saturday covers most active time zones

Sorry that it’s inaccessible to you, but there’s no perfect time

there's no perfect time because pangea died :p

#tournament-announcements message is tb bannable

I believe it was confirmed that TB would be considered as a bannable weapon

#

I realise this tournament is trying a lot at once

gilded spindle
#

the veto again on single elim instead of double elim and the rebalance mod too

Single elim was tried in the past

Hi ! I would like to organise a mining contest !

A speed competitiont, to determine who is the best industrialist in cosmoteer !

young jacinth
#

Id probably participate

hybrid tulip
#

I contacted one mod already

#

But last time I tried to organise a constest the mod never replied

#

so this time I tried another one

#

The rules, you get a map, a budget, and a radius where you can spawn ships. Get all asteroids as fast as you can, record it, get a time

#

Basically a speedrun

#

I'm thinking 1.5 mil budget to start with

#

You will first spawn your ships using battle helper so we can check the values

#

then show that your ships don't contain any ressources that you need to collect before the race starts

#

Move your ship into the spawning radius using creative tools

#

Then game starts the frame you unpause (you can give orders before unpausing)

#

I'll give the map in the announcement

raven fern

#

.rec?

I contacted two mods this time

Gauntlet is up ! Let the speedrunning begin !

#

Since you need to show yourself loading the game we can verify that you have no mods enabled ?

raven fern
#

The game saves your matches with a .rec format. You can find them here: C:\Users\USERNAME\Saved Games\Cosmoteer\STEAM ID\Logs

#

You can then load them by launching the game in dev mode, create a multiplayer lobby, load replay

hybrid tulip
#

But it's not a multiplayer game

#

It's a creative game

#

I don't think it records that

white apex
#

it can

hollow socket
#

I am not interested in mining asteroids, I avoided doing that in regular career when I played it

raven fern
hybrid tulip
#

okay I'll add it to the next tournament rules. If you use the current rules I should be able to detect any splices and mods anyways

short tartan
#

mines are gonna get banned less because they are visible in rebalance

vocal cloak
#

would an unofficial regional tourney that uses ping as the restriction work?

raven fern
vocal cloak
#

meh, good enough

#

the time i choose would screw over one region or another anyway

@tropic zenith I've never seen you in competitive stuff before, always love it when newer players join the comp scene, best of luck!

oops my bad

raven fern
# tropic zenith I’m starting to get a little nervous

Don't sweat it, you may not have as much experience as some of these people but tournaments are a great way to close the gap and to learn a lot about various ship archetypes and piloting. I'm rooting for you, I'd love to see a newcomer knock them down a few pegs!
In case you aren't aware, there are lots of competitive ships posted here https://cosmo-lilac.vercel.app/ that you can take inspiration from

hollow socket
#

Hmmm

short tartan
#

I also recommend that you join the excelsior discord server!

tropic zenith
#

Thanks!

#

I have a bit knowledge as I have watched a lot of cosmoteer pvp like on saris winterwisps channel and blade tardigrade

#

I know some of the basic archetypes

granite river
#

I would strongly recommend building at least one meta ship archetype before the tourney, career and built-in ships absolutely suffer
Awesome to see more people sign up :D

tropic zenith
#

Thanks!

#

will do

surreal pecan
#

Still always better making your own though, having useless airlock and hyperdrives is of course a drawback.

short tartan
young jacinth
#

They are on those ships

young jacinth
#

@hybrid tulip maybe next time you do this increase the time period or something (or even with this even). I for example didnt find time this week.

hybrid tulip
#

Yeah, i think I'll extend by one day and then maybe a week if like one person had time to make it. Do you think I can do that ?

young jacinth
#

Youre the host so yes of course you can do that

#

If you want you can ask for the participants opinion since a time extension is unfair for them.

tropic zenith
#

For slowkings tournament, is the ship cost cap 6 million or 1.5 million?

#

it says that per ship/team it is 1.5

#

but max ship value is 6 mil

raven fern
#

1.5 mil

#

You're only given 1.5mil credits so even if the maximum ship cost is higher it doesn't make a difference

tropic zenith
#

ok tahnks

surreal pecan
# tropic zenith but max ship value is 6 mil

Max ship value is usually very high in most people's elimination games because it doesn't affect the given budget but makes it so that if the budget was to be raised, larger ships could be taken.

#

Handy if the host wants to host bossfights.

#

(Very underrated type of elim in my opinion).

#

Guys wouldn't an unnoficial bossfight tournament be epic?

#

Every participant could have a 6mil boss and it'd be a 4v1, and they'd just play round robin.

#

Or maybe it could just be [x] boss participants and 4 times as many regular participants and it'd be a team vs team games.

#

Sounds like a tough thing to host but a system could be constructed.

@gilded spindle "weapon veto"
do all missile types count as one weapon?
do other weapon types count as one weapon (lasers, cannons ...) ?

gilded spindle
#

Emp is different to he

#

Small lasers are different to heavy lasers

surreal pecan
gilded spindle
#

What I say is not exclusive

#

So every weapon is different for selection

hazy brook
#

@young jacinth will you be participating in the tournamet or just spectating?

surreal pecan
#

Which tourney?

young jacinth
#

Oh and @hybrid tulip (or someone else) you wanna cast with me or are you still doing your own stream thing?

#

Yaddah cant today

surreal pecan
young jacinth
#

Thats every 2 weeks

#

And always anounced in #tournament-announcements

young jacinth
surreal pecan
#

Can that even be called a tournament, more of a mini pvp event.

#

For me, tourney is like at least 8 people.

#

Saris ones would get 16-24...

young jacinth
#

Im calling it that. Not my fault no one signs up

#

or maybe it is because of me

hybrid tulip
#

lmao

#

I have a dom concept

#

It's a FFA dom with very little money gain but ships drop ressources

#

and there's a lot of time

#

and if possible crew construction is off but construction on

surreal pecan
#

Crew construction is off but construction is on?

#

Oh.

#

I don't think that's possible.

young jacinth
#

Yea thats not possible

hybrid tulip
#

mods ?

#

Because it's possible in career

hazy brook
#

career is weird

raven fern

#

funny tournament and all but next time if you are ever gonna host a dom tournament dont host it during sunday evening when most people have work or school tomorrow, saturday is a good time

#

and definitely do be sure that settings are okay

surreal pecan
#

This is starting to become embarassing.

#

You know what there's a reason Order of Octa chose your name in the freeforall tournament XD

#

HIS NAME IS PLAUS

#

We can organize our timetables so there are no conflicts between tournaments. Rebalance testing seems to take place at a later time anyway

inland lagoon
#

so you can always move the date, even if you dont then the people who wanted to attend will attend

young jacinth
#

Ill have to look at my own time table as well but I could try it for the next event I guess

hazy brook
#

weird

desert sky
#

Saturday is basically the worse time for me but i guess you cannot please everybody

hazy brook
#

well yes but you dont even play dom so at least those could be on saturdays

Both the day and time are perfect to me, for once

@Blaze thanks for links

raven fern
#

Saris got burned out and so we took over. There are still monthly tournaments, here are the details for the next one #tournament-announcements message

surreal pecan
raven fern
#

Sounds like you're saying Slow and I aren't doing as good a job lol

In that regard I'd say the number of participants has nothing to do with Saris. The PVP player base has been continually decreasing for months already

surreal pecan
#

Nah obviously everything is in the 30 dollar reward 😏

raven fern
#

Thought I'd share the number of participants from Saris's last 3 elimination tournaments:
June:23 / September:20 / October:9
And Slowking's tournaments:
January:13 / February:16

surreal pecan
#

Yeah the october one really dropped the ball because it was the first one with rebalance mod, it was still very early in development, a lot of the members couldn't come and a slew of other issues.

vocal cloak

the active player pool just seems smaller nowadays when compared to last year

#

what does this rule mean? are we unable to paint our ships?

vocal cloak
#

there is a tool that let you change the thumbnail image of the ship file

so you could have the thumnail of the ship be lets say an avoider but the ship spawned is a railfan

I wonder if somebody's ever done this strategy in a tournament, otherwise I don't see why it'd be ever brought up or banned in the first place, barely anybody know about it anyways.

short tartan
sharp bane
#

I support using absolutely anything that can be done simply using existing game mechanics

#

from explosion guns back when they existed to whatever new nuke exploits are around

#

it's somehow always nukes, the cursed weapon.

#

Also tbh feel like mines should never despawn, otherwise waiting game becomes the preferable move against them

fast oracle
sharp bane
#

perhaps

#

I think they didn't despawn in classic but my memory is hazy

short tartan
#

they did not despawn in classic

#

i like that they despawn now

#

my only change would be that they explode instead of despawning

desert sky

@young jacinth my game crashed

It does that when i have it open for too long

It's a driver issue i was never able to fix

You got to play to win. Don't worry about it

Past tournaments tried to reduce lobby time as much as possible and i think they succeded, but now it's game time that is longer

''Looks like Plaus won again''

Instead of ''looks like morbiter won again''

#

That should be the new slogan of competitive Cosmoteer.

At this point we should have a Plaus tournament where Plaus needs to try his hardest to lose, apparently that's harder for him than winning.

I'm pretty sure this is another one of Plaus' schemes to win a tournament. Knowing him he probably already has 50 different super sweaty tryhard meta designs of one-of-each ships.

why mags required

young jacinth

Thay are not?

silk flint
#

"chaingun + mags"
i too thought it was required because of how it is written

#

then what does those mean:
"disruptors + any blasters
ions + prisms"

#

can't i just use ions and no prism and disruptor and no blaster ?
can i use mags and no chaingun ?

surreal pecan
#

Finalizing verdict: Don't trust a German to make a very specific and wording-important ruleset.

#

Xd

silk flint
#

from a math (they have other symbols) or computer science background, + means a logic OR

#

but with disruptor + any blaster, it souds like a AND

silk flint
young jacinth
silk flint
#

oh

#

no chaingun but mags XD

#

prism but no ion !

young jacinth
#

I thought the wording was very clear

#

Could i improve it?

young jacinth
silk flint
#

i don't really know, i not really better.
but you could have written an exemple:
chaingun + mag means:
chaingun, chaingun and mag, or just mag

#

afterall, it doesn't feel like common sense to interpret you could put a mag, but no chaingun

#

in an all weapon tournament

#

we will interpret what is the most logical to us

probably in the same category, but that's apples to oranges when it comes to competitive viability

fast oracle
#

are 360 nukes op?

#

do you win every battle with them?

vocal cloak
#

360 nukes is a buff that nukes dont need considering how strong they are competitively

fast oracle
#

it's a technique not a buff

#

i think we should ban orbiting too

vocal cloak
#

Sure

#

Lets have an anti orbiting tourney

fast oracle
#

I'll be serious.

My argument is that 360 nukes are a consequence of not having ai controlled weapons. Banning 360 nukes leaves players that don't use ai controlled nukes in a disadvantage because they have to make sure that they are not launching them illegally

#

I won't bother to avoid an illegal launch if I know it will have an effect in a tourney, I don't care about the consequences. You can do anything you want.

upbeat ridge
# fast oracle are 360 nukes op?

that'a not the point, the point is you win matches because of it, and that it stems from unintended (and for some, unwanted) behavior

vocal cloak
#

Btw what do we do about diags

#

Considering they break pip by default

upbeat ridge
#

i guess we ban diags and orbiting
oh and with that let's ban fuel pods too

fast oracle
#

what's next, winning a tourney?

upbeat ridge
#

well at least this wasn't the time nukes were like missiles

vocal cloak
#

If 360 nukes is legal i want pip bug to be legal, why should I cater to those that locks their pip

#

Anyway when bug fix walt, too many things are not working as intended atm

surreal pecan
# fast oracle why 360 nukes

It's an unfair advantage that is not intended, looks like the same picture to me. Yes, it is less harmful and obnoxious than pip exploit, but that isn't saying much, unfair advantage is unfair advantage.

fast oracle
#

i don't think it's unfair

#

i agree, it's not intended, just like locking, nre, autoram, reactor pikes.

desert sky
#

I mean havent you clearly noticed cosmoteer players ban things not because it's fair, but because they do not want to fight it.

fast oracle
#

mrt also has unintended features with fuel pods, but they're in the game, so as long as they're not annoying the other person (like cancer paint or pip bug) i don't see a reason to ban it.

fast oracle
desert sky
#

Imagine being a tournament player and pick a flak orbiterwall (harder counter) but instead loses the tournament to a well placed nuke from one of the two only players that use this technique.
It's natural to think it's unfair in my opinion

#

Although i second you, if the bug was exploited and popular people would have time to practice against it, and Walt would patch it faster due to it's impact on balance.

granite river
#

I feel like 360 nukes fall into the same category as armed mines phasing through shields - it’s an unintended advantage that’s a bit annoying to avoid using in battle
But I think since it’s in the game, it’s known about, and it doesn’t look to be getting patched soon, it’s fine to use
I just hate it when players have to focus on things other than winning when playing a tournament match

fast oracle
fast oracle
#

ah that

silk flint
#

i mean, what do you want to do to police it anyway ?

#

and because you can do it without wanting too. it's a rule that will make teeth grind, or it's just directly banning mines

granite river
#

that's exactly why i brought up mines as a comparison

silk flint
#

btw, what is pip ?

hazy root
#

Picture in picture. The window that you see upper right

silk flint
#

so, something i don't use. but that competitive player do

snow seal
#

i misread that

#

does having nuke launchers set to fire at target not do the same?

fast oracle
#

it's manual weapons control exclusive

#

i mean i have set them to fire at target but you need to launch them manually

#

I personally think that manual nukes are better in general, you have much better response time on the launch. If you use the rotate camera to ship it's a lot better to launch them manually

#

the disadvantage is that targeting them takes more time, so you have to set an aproximate target beforehand

#

I've seen you blaze fail a few nukes because of slow response times, but i have to admit that your targeting is amazing

raven fern
#

I don't fail nukes because of the response time. I know I'm good with them but I'm not infallible and just miss my shots sometimes.
I find that manual nukes is by far the inferior firing method. You can't fire & target them at the last second with a single click and so you just miss opportunities.
It also has the disadvantage of wasting nukes if you're slightly out of range and fire too early

short tartan
#

@gilded spindle @raven fern could we have a poll to allow 360 nukes?

rain loom
#

I find that I enjoyed the intense standoff against Rift when she was using Nukes against me in the last tourney. I think she even got a good hit on me at one point. I think it was 360 nukes but I could of been wrong. I do think there is a steeper learning curve for it that would make it somewhat enjoyable. Also, if someone doesn't want to deal with nukes that is what the veto is for.

white apex
#

360 nukes being banned is stupid because it is so easy to do it on accident and the game doesn't even try to stop you or have any inconvenience from normal play when u do do it like with other bugs

#

you need to purposefully set up pip bug, nre, mine through shield, etc but 360 nuke easily happens in regular play
