I understand that BB5 Fleetwar event has been discussed in ONF, but it will play in NF, and this is the forum where I want to comment (not to discuss) because it is the NF forum I read regularly, and most players interested in the game read.
I do not want drama, please do not misunderstand me. If my opinions may be useful in some way, feel free to move them to ONF.
About the fleet ranking to decide the seedings, I agree with SK_Bismarck and Ljsevern. It's not fair to decide the outcome of a totally different tournament, and perhaps it is not fair to decide by lot. I have no better solution, but it is possible that for future events is announced in advance how you will do the ranking, everyone is happier.
About lists when there are 2 teams from the same fleet, I agree with SK_Bismarck are necessary (at least 10 names per team) If it’s possible to implement it for this event, I think it would be good, if not, you can take into account for future events.
I would also propose an idea for the competition system of alternative events. Organize a team and a competition is a major effort for many fleets, the qualifying system makes half the fleet just play one game. Perhaps a pre-league system by groups (four or five fleets for group playing a league in which the first two go to the next stage) would ensure that all fleets play at least 3 or 4 games, and perhaps also solve some problems in the ranking of fleets and seeded
Thank you
