The two sides will battle for supremacy over the duration using a points based system.
Points break-down:
Someone presenting a Screen Shot showing a death of a member of the opposing team will be awarded 1 point. The kill must be posted in the correct manner as deemed at the time. (i.e. Screenshot or victim confirmation included, date, time and place of death)
There will be no additional points for system victories as this just complicates matters.
The Dead is Dead rule will be in use. Multiple battles may spread throughout the Sirius sector, this is allowed.
Any queries or disputes can be posted to event admin via the forums or to an in game monitor (if there is one in game at that time). Event admin decisions are final on any matter.
The winners will be the team with the most points after the 48 hours.
Top 3 point winners (possibly more) from each team will be awarded small monetary prizes.
Winning team gets good bragging rights!
