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.
