We never really addressed the first point in the voting thread. For now, I'm going to say no. That is worth looking at for the next tournament though.

In the editor, 67.5. If you're doing it using I and K (or whatever the buttons are) it should show as 135.

Now that thrusters are banned from this contest I can share with you my reason for wanting to use them. I did some testing that seems to indicate that lancets will target thrusters as often as any other weapon or module. If that is the case then having several thrusters on your ship will reduce the odds that you will loose a more valuable weapon or module to the lancet. Has anyone else tested this?

Section overlapping is one thing, but can a piece completely cover the core? Or does the core have to be completely uncovered, if surrounded?

It can completely overlap the core.

Think I've finished it... hope I did the math right, I Went over everything a few times. I'm sure It'll do decently enough but are there points for style, too?

EDIT: Oh yeah, is there any trouble if I recolour the core?

Are you going to allow players to sit their ships in the corners or do they have to be fairly far from the corners?

Big slow ships have a big advantage in corners against flankers.

My computer died (posting from my phone) so I'll be out of commission for a bit. Even then internet in my (new) area is down or something. I'll update on my status, expect a deadline around March 21st. Might be text only results if I have to use my phone as a modem.

So, updates:
I lost all of my BSF data minus the web stuff, which is obviously online.
My internet is installed March 22nd, this is our new deadline.
I promise to actually finish up my database thing when my computer is fixed, which will hopefully be around the end of this week.
it smells of smoke in this small library computer room what the butt

!!-Incoming-!!
Surprise Fleet from the Left Field!

11. TheBlueEcho - Delusions of Grandeur

In case questions arise, yes I'm being serious, that's the name of the fleet.

This is going to be fun. Angelic Layer was inspired by the anime of the same name, though the ships have an angelic motif slightly inspired by the PAPAL FLEET! ...slightly inspired.

Your fleet is composed of miniture robotic girls in suggestive fetish outfits?
