Talk:Outer Rim War III
Dave's suggestions
- Organize a "practice" night to use as an example of what to expect so that the ORW Committee can finalize rules and faction alignments.
- Perhaps vary the "possessions" that the factions fight over. In other words, instead of fighting over a single planet, occasionally fight over a whole star system, or perhaps go even smaller scale and fight over a single important space station.
- The current proposal has dynamic rules for winning "possessions." Instead, perhaps we should consider a set amount of time (say one or two weeks worth of battles) for the capturing of a specific possession before moving on to the next one. This could make it easier on the event organizers.
- Alternatively, we could try to blend dynamic and set rules. Consider the possibility of giving two weeks of battles for each possession - if the same faction wins both weeks of the battle, they get the possession with no questions asked. If one faction wins the first week and a different faction wins the second week, then that possession goes to neutral ownership and must be fought over again in a single week deathmatch later in the competition. This idea has its own problems, though.
Josh's notes
Given my strange work schedule, and usually having weekends off, if you need to me to help in any way (Other than fly for the RS which I will do) let me know. If I have a night off, I'll be awake from 8pm-11am EST (GMT -5)
Location
Thanks to a stroke of genius by Rekio, we now have a likely potential region for our competition to take place (see main article for more information).
I will be out of touch for the next . . . er, forty hours or so, but after that I will be able to help actively plan out worlds, system and so forth.
This is excellent because I feel that we can combine VSF Tour 1 and RID Tour 1 with the events in this conflict.

Name?
Speaking of conflict, would it be possible to come up with a different title?
Subterrel Conflict? War out in the Sticks? (Okay, that one was a joke, but seriously . . . this location would be beyond the Outer Rim, plus OR3 seems . . . I don't know, like another sequel rather than something bold and new. :P)
