    So I'm *kicks self* doing the thing again, and I noticed that everyone calmed down (yay) and I have an idea~

    Two contests, one building and one fighting, to cover both of the main aspects of the game. Each faction constitutes a single team, however factions can combine forces or pull people from anywhere to join them.

    For the first competition, teams will assemble a ship within a given amount of time and a given mass limit or theme which will be judged on three categories-

    Design-

    Overall stats-

    Deviation from the given mass limit-

    Judges will be picked from members of the community or "speshul guests" depending on who is available.

    The second competition is based on the fighting ability of said ship. Teams will send their ship(s) into battle and the last ship standing wins. (Think Thunderdome.)


    I do not yet have a server, date, or time for the competition but I would like to know who would be interested in this as a fun event, a way to promote creativity, and a way to help bolster faction activity. (It'd also make some really good Youtube videos *looks at aceface and Tomino_sama*


    >In other news, I'm coming back slightly ahead of schedule albeit still in limited amounts and I don't intend to get very involved with any faction in particular. I'm doing my best to clean-slate everything that's been said and done and I intend to stick to finding ways to improve the community rather than ensure the survival of single factions. I've had some time to cool off and looking back on it, I said and did some things I regret. My goal now is to try and make things as fun for everyone as possible regardless of faction allegience or past experience, and this here is what I believe to be a good first step.

    Sounds very cool. I'll pass this to my faction.

    *ahem*

    Excuse me, sir, but I make a damn good yhole burrito, and I take offense at your suggestion that it's just yholes.

    Actually, having cargo ships would be a workable idea. Largest amount of cargo in the shortest amount of time while the sectors are populated by heavily-armed pirates?
