    Out of curiosity why did my fleet not make the cut?

    Alright so a few things.

    One, nobody is perfect. We didn't expect perfection. There are still plenty of things on every winners builds that will need tweaking. Missing blocks, misplaced blocks. It's not really an issue. We needed designs that were 95-99% done. We got what we came for.

    If you want to know why we did not accept your submission, we are willing to private message you our response. Please understand we did place some limits, and many were on the line. Unfortunately there could have been one major issue holding back what was a great fleet from making it. We were fairly strict with the rules. We evaluated each submission as a group, not as individual ships. So if a single ship had some major issues, it could have been disqualified.

    To answer Trekkerjoe, we will be holding a vote. The community will decide which fleet gets larger ships, and stations. There will be a few different tiers, which determine the sizes that various winners can build at. This all needs to be figured out now that we have the number of winning submissions.

    Darn..png I'm frankly a bit bitter about this...

    Man.. I'm really sad none of mine made it in.. I mean they were some of the most liked on the competition page and on the docks.. Guess i should have updated the interiors more.. Congrats to all who made it. I'm still looking forward to seeing all of these ships in game though with or without my own.

    Hopefully my fleet will get the green light to have larger ships. Then I will be able to add some heavy corvettes and frigates, as well as my defense platforms. :)

    Really disappointed I couldn't finish a fleet in time. I had some really cool ideas for ships, but didn't have the time to build them. Too much life stuff which took priority. :(

    Good call!
    This competition almost cost me dearly relationship wise.
    [doublepost=1468381250,1468381040][/doublepost]Let me rephrase that. My time management spent on this, not the competition itself.

    I dare you to make an ODP
    an orbital defence platform with only 1.1 t/m and not ment to move, but like a space T95, it will kill everything
    Like the didact's AA cannons from H4

    Could you please tell me how I could improve my ships, because I binge watched Skylord luke, Raiben, Dalmont, some of Bench, and Saber with his ship reviews. I really want to become a good builder, so telling me would really help me narrow down what I should keep doing.

    Whew!
    Congratz to all!
    I wouldn't mind seeing mod packs of fleets. Replacers or additions or what have you.
