Just so you know, I voted draft. My most fun tourney experience was draft, and I just love the style. This ensures that atleast some of the talent is dispersed among the teams, and also allows for larger teams = more team interaction. Although I would never share all my secrets with a draft team, it also allows the more experienced players to share their experience with newer players who otherwise would never have the opportunity to learn from the masters.
The one problem I foresee though, is that if we have a Draft Tournament, who will the Team Captains be? It has been so long since our last tournament, do our previous winners and TCs still play? Will they want the responsibility?
Anyway, my vote is cast, Draft Tournament for me

And you might want to make the tourney a Profile Only tournament. That way only people with a profile can signup and they have to use their profile when they create their player. One of the new tourney features.
This way no one can smurf and try to hide.
Also, might want to use the new online time restriction feature. Have a limit of how many hours a player can be in the tournament every day. That will make it more fair to the people who can't spend every waking hour online. The ones who do spend all day online for a tourney know who you are.
We have never be able to test all of these features with a real tournament. Would be nice to see how everything works.

I am about guys, so that if you want an Admin for the Tournament so that you two can have a break, let me know.
I will also grab the code when it is out and get a game up and running.
Profiles only with time restrictions for 1st Tourny.
Cheers

First off, Alf, where the hell have you been?!?! LTNS...
Second off, seriously, need profile-only for the tourney, but please no time restrictions! I am not one who can spend every waking hour on the game (Hell, I don't even have net AT MY HOUSE, at this point! And I work 45-60 hours a week...) but I would hate to have my tournament victory discreditted because some of the lifeless scum floating around the galaxy are whining they couldn't play as much as they wanted, or they got in a bad spot and their time limit was up, so they lost a ship, etc.

Alf!! oh wow guy! it has been a long time since we have all heard anything out of you! Hope all is doing much better now, which I assume since you are offering to admin a tourney
There are advantages and disadvantages to profile game only. Let's everyone know up front who to fear and who to prey upon But it also keeps ppl honest
And explain what amount of time is in a time restricted game. Sadly I enjoy the team chatter and spend my time in AAT not only upgrading planets but also socializing with a few friends. Hey! it's a better choice then yahoo hehehe

My health has not been good and I still get numbness in hand and foot. Blood pressure is all under control at last. I have also lost a little weight (12-14KG) bit I am better for that.
And yes, I have no problems running the Tourney.

Well there will be a Time limit, it will be a profiles only and with all tournaments, they are always bounty free. Profiles will be needed especially if its a draft tourney team captains will need that. Even a singles tourney a profile will help players know who to take down first.
Phire you can always socialize in the chat room for the tourney. Might be a good habit rather than wasting valuable minutes you may need.
You will find yourself not only saving turns but giving yourself a time pad... this will tell you who is good and who just have no life

It is looking like a Draft Game, so suggestions for some Captains would be helpful.
But let's leave Big, Tarnus, Max and some of the scrappy players to be in the draft list.
