Greetings Mercenaries

Just a few quick announcements with regards to the DUST 514 Prime League Tournament:

Some battle settings are being changed. Firstly, we are turning Friendly fire on so that teams have to be careful with their firing. Second, the warbarge timer has been increased to 10 minutes for the first match and 5 for the second and third and will now start counting down from 10/5 minutes before the scheduled starting time. This is also when the battle will appear in the battlefinder.
All of Monday's EU battles will be re-run due to them starting an hour before scheduled. Time/date for rerun matches will be released soon.
A number of teams had issues getting all their members into matches due to roster issues. A number of extra entries have now been fixed, but there are still some roster entries that do not match any characters. If you have further issues during the Wednesday and Friday matches, please file a support ticket to DUST Community & Forums. Deadline for all issues with team rosters is Downtime on Monday 19/08/13 - any further alterations will not be accepted after this date. Please note that all members of your team must be in the same corporation, and that the maximum roster size is 32 characters (this includes any alts you may wish to include).
A further reminder that each match consists of three rounds each day played one after the other. The scheduled starting times for EU are 2030, 2100 and 2130. NA is 0130, 0200 and 0230. All times are in UTC/EVE Time (battles will open 10 minutes before scheduled starting time, see above)
Some players joined the matches on Monday and had no opponents show. 10 minutes after the scheduled starting time if the other team hasn't shown up the match will be ended without entering battle and you will be awarded a win.
Players should report their battle results to Urgent Fury. While we will provide verification of the results, it's quicker for players to update the standings themselves as we only provide the results a day or two after the matches have finished.
Post battle salvage has been changed to "Dropped" (similar to how it works in Planetary Conquest)
Scoring: The only thing scored is the overall result of the best of three. This means that a 2-1 win is the same as a 3-0 win. The main number you should be looking at is the total XP - don't worry about Total Points. You get 75xp for winning a match, 25 for a draw and 10 for a loss.
To clarify: Round refers to each of the three (or seven in the finals) games played. A match refers to the group of rounds (again three rounds except in the finals where it's seven).
If your opponent no-shows for the first two matches we won't run the third and you will awarded the victory for that match.
If I am online at the time of the tournament matches I will also be sitting in the channel "DUST 514 Tournament". Contact me in this channel only for time critical issues. Please also note that I am not guaranteed to be present in the channel at all times as some matches start past midnight local time.

If you have any further issues or questions, please submit a support ticket under GÇ£DUST Community & ForumsGÇ¥.

It's unfortunate because now we have to play them on Wednesday and undoubtedly, they'll be abusing the same melee exploit they have been for months, despite constant reports and ample evidence of said abuse. Apparently OH even brought in AE ringers to the tournament match against TP tonight. Both OH and AE should be disqualified for that, but that won't happen either. It's sad to see CCP couldn't care less about their own tournament--the first official one of the game. To Contract Hunters: Well fought. You guys had us worried there in the second battle. It's the only way they can win against good teams, so expect full on melee glitching while CCP pretends to ignore it. Bringing in AE ringers for OH is a pathetic move, really shows the kind of people you're dealing with here and CCP still won't do anything about it unbelieveable. You know... Ari hasn't used the melee glitch since like..after we fought you guys. That was the 1-2md week of the tourney and it hadn't been classified as a broken glitch yet. You act as tho we have had ari glitch all this time through out all the tourney matches lol. Also as for the AE ringers.. They were on the OH roster before they joined us and from what I heard, OH was down many members in that fight. They called upon 2 former OH members since they were still friends and had them fight for them. After all, being down so many players would have resulted in a loss anyway. I'd be happy to at least have a challenge. And to parson : can't disqualify AE. Not like we could stop players anyway if they ringed for someone.

SyN and Ahrendee also won their matches, so there's the lineup: Wednesday - Semifinals TEAM v SyN AE v RND Sooo an Eon corp will win even if TP loses, nice now that's a beautiful alliance, I say if because both SyN and RND are great corps Nope. AE will win. We will beat RND and then Proceed to beat what I hope would be TP. If not then it'd be SyN.

I'd rather they exclude Kallente than Arirana, tbh. Lol. Yeah kalante is too OP man. Unfortunately he is not on our tourney team :( He can't carry us :'(
