There has been debate recently concerning the efficacy of 1 v 1 Battles and it was
agreed that definitive guidance was now required. The policy for 1v1 Battles is as
follows:
1. Players can engage in 1 v 1 Battles through their own arrangements and TeamNF
will not intervene unless the rooms are likely to block the creation of other larger
rooms in the main battle area for the particular server. To further define this, if it is
considered possible that the main battle area will become full whilst a 1 v 1 battle is
in progress then the players should not establish a 1 v 1 room. Initially, I (note the
I) intend to set this as at least 4 tiles are requried to be free in order to establish a
1 v 1 room. If that proves inappropriate in practice then I will gladly review it.
2. 1 v 1 rooms are to be conducted in the main battle area or a fleet training area if
the potential for crew kills wishes to be avoided. They are not to be conducted in
any overflow or secondary battle area.
3. If players clearly ignore the above guidance then TeamNF reserves the right to
close down the room either by dismissing the room (even if the battle has
commenced) or by disconnecting the players involved.
4. Wagers. If players wish to place wagers on the outcome of 1 v1 Battles then
they can, but do so entirely at their own risk. SDE/TeamNF will not attempt to
arbitrate the results of 1 v 1 battles, nor will we get involved in disputes about
amounts agreed and/or payment, nor will we attempt to enforce player to player
agreements.
------------------------
Notes:
1. This is a game policy that is the same for both servers.
2. An actual game mode was considered for something like this previously but was
ruled out for various reasons.
3. Any dispute between players on 1 v 1 Battles are to be resolved between the
players concerned and are not to be the subject of flaming/derogatory/whinge
threads or posts on these forums. Any posts or threads considered to be
contravening this direction can be removed without notice or notification to the
person making the post.
