Feb 03, 2007 jexkerome link
The CDC is proud to present the Tenth Official Flag Raid!

System: Odia
Station: Corvus Hold, Odia M-14
Flag Widget: 1cu of Random item that takes 3+ cus of space
Time: Alternating with the Deneb Run on Saturdays, either 5pm or 9pm Eastern. This week's timeslot is 5PM EST (22:00 GMT)

NOTE: Any ship and any weapon is allowed. Also, the only other rules at the moment are:

Prohibitions:

1) No leaving the Odia M-14 sector
2) No attempting to imitate the Flag widget with a different item.
3) ANY firing in Odia M-14 before or after ANY round (but not during) counts as disqualification. If a referee gets hit, or worse blown up, the offending pilot is out. This includes deploying mines between rounds.

How to Play

Participating pilots are split into two teams by the judges, depending on nationality, faction standings and amount of available pilots. The game is played in a series of sorties, and the teams start each one docked in the station (this means every pilot). Meanwhile, the judge drops the Flag somewhere in the ice cluster; when everything is ready, the judge calls Go and the event begins. The objective is for a team to work together to grab the Flag and dock successfully with it. The team that successfully does so earns a point. To confirm that the pilot did indeed dock with the Flag, the pilot will undock on the Judge's call and drop the Flag. Any other result good drop punishes the offending team with a negative point. Verification of scoring ends the sortie, and the field is reset for the next (pilots dock or first leave the system to remove any temporal KOS, then return to dock).

The best score out of five rounds wins.

Prizes:

100,000 credits and a determined amount of items, depending on the item, per pilot on the winning team OR a flat 200,000 credits. 100,000 credits to each pilot on the losing team.

The Blueberry Pancakes:
Niki, iry, lord spidey, and Pancakes of Fluffy.

The Munchies:
Ecka Estenk, Mick, Bidi Bada and Kooh Whatsisname (i.e. someone remind me, I'm a memoryless git)

Yellow vs. Blue, with a Union renegade on each team.

One flag event. The first two sorties were exciting but short, and both ended the same way: with Niki docking with the Flag. The Munchies rallied in the third sortie, Mick beating Niki to the flag by scant meters and scoring to give his team hope. However, Niki once again docked to dash the aspirations of the yellow team.

Because he scored all three points for his team, Niki also scored a pair of Hive positrons.
