What edit do you think will be best for the Fall Tournament?

Keep in mind that the edit will be modified as you are voting:

Low turns - 2500
No free product - No Megarob
halve striking distance planets (SubZero)
Ship prices may be changed slightly, etc...

I think it is for a 30K universe. It's low compared to the 30-40K turns a lot of edits have.

How about you poll first what type of game people would like.. then take another poll for the turns? i nkow it may sound stupid but think about it. 2500 turns in subzero. That's a little far fetched. Becuase that edit is only good at 10k+ in my opinion....

I really dont have a clue..
Im not good at thinking.


I just realized, it seems, all the tournys are played with the same small set of edits.

So being a newb sysop running a tourney, you're saying it's best if he just comes up with his own unique style? Get a little creative with the edits maybe?

Any edit can be used as a tournament edit, but if you use an edit with aliens, you are asking for issues. Also edits that contain highly edited planets and ships tend to lead to a shorter duration of the game. Some edits that have proven to be decent tournaments are:

1) Pirates
2) Poker Run (toned slightly)
3) rev stock
4) ICE
5) Moo2 (prepare for planet cashing unless product is removed)
6) Sub Zero (toned down quite a bit with aliens removed)
7) Chess

Edits to stay away from for tournament edits:
1) Star Trek
2) Space Ballz
3) Farscape
4) Star Wars
Mainly because these edits host aliens and were designed as unlimted turn games.
