Announcing Irie Series: FTL Masters Edition!

Hello fellow FTL Gamers and Fans!

It is with great pleasure that I am announcing the existence of a competitive FTL Tournament!

Irie Series: FTL Masters Edition

Below will be the rules, regulations and base info about the Tournament.

- Hard Mode, with pause

- No run is allowed to finish with a sub 30 time (to prevent speed runs)

- No more than 3 Dives per Sector prior to Sector 8 (to prevent score farming)

- The usage of our Irie Series Modpack is mandatory

- Players have 60 Minutes to finish their run after their Opponent has finished his run (killing the Boss, getting killed does not count here)

- Cheat engine (to speed up gameplay) will be disabled via Modpack

- Players will face off in Seeded runs with the support of Hyperspace, playing the same ship in each Match-up. Ships will be provided by the Tourney Committee

The premise of this Tourney is to find the most consistent player, who can accumilate the most points in the least amount of time. In order to measure that we have come up with a Formula that takes FTL Score and Time into account!

There is a lot more info about the Tourney in the Discord of my eSports Org who will be running this Tournament. Join the Irie Legacy https://discord.gg/CtRGTqDgSy via this Link for Detailed Information and also if you want to Sign up!

Sign up is exclusively through the Discord for multiple reasons.

The Discord contains a Spreadsheet with the Formula being explained and applied to FTL Runs so you can get an idea of how it works and also for transparency reasons.

We also created a Tier List of Ships so people can get an idea of what ships are going to be ran in the Event. The Ships will progressively get harder throughout the Tourney!

Regarding the Hyperspace Mod that we will be using, we are working together with the Devs of said Mod in order to make Hyperspace as Vanilla as possible for the Event. We will also use the "Extended pursuit indicator" Mod.

This Mod Pack is also found in the Discord for everyone to download in order to prep for the Event!

The reason we are running this Tournament is that popular FTL Streamer Rand118 (https://www.twitch.tv/rand118) joined my Org as a Content Creator and this may be the first iteration of FTL Events with hopefully many more to come. Rand will also be Casting the Event and will not be playing in it.

For those that want to get an idea of what this Tournament will look like I can recommend catching Rands Stream this upcoming Monday (starting at 6pm CEST). We will be making a test run for under the rules and regulations for the Tourney, with 2 Casters and a surprise Guest that you will recognize if you are familiar with FTL Content Creators!

Do you have more questions? Feel free to ask away, I will be closely monitoring the thread and my DMs on Discord are always open Cassalien#8814.

The Discord also contains more information on how we are going to be capturing your Game (Visual and Audio) so be sure to check it if you think that you got what it takes to participate!

This Event will also be a Charity Event where we are hoping that we can raise a small amount of money for a good Cause since we are a non-profit Org. The exact Charity we are going to be raising money for will be chosen very soon and this post will be updated once we have that figured out.

We will also have various Guests coming on to the Show ranging from Community Members, to Modders and hopefully some of the Devs too!

We are trying to do this for this great Community and hopefully run a great and entertaining Show for all the ones who are interested. There is lots of effort involved to hopefully deliver a good product to you, the Fans and Players of this Game.

Sign up Period will last for another 7 Days from today (until the 18th of April) so be sure to Sign Up while you still can :)

Much love y'all, lets make this Event one to remember and one to build upon for the future <3
In life, when things get down and don't look great, keep your mind straight and run through the tape!
