Phil as you may or may not know a lot of the debate over the Voice Chat was due to people complaining about not able to talk to their crew due to being crewed with the captains. Now you have some worried about non crew members as in friends tping onto the ships. While some has suggested to shut the ship completely down to keep unauthorized friends from popping onboard to keep from getting disqualified I see a problem with it if the ships crew isn't crewed. When the crew needs to get ammo then the captain will be forced to open the permissions window during battle to let crew members on and off by opening the ship. Then he will have to remember to shut it back down. I feel that this will hamper play. I do have a suggestion though –

1. Let the captains crew their crew...
2. Have the captains FRIEND the observers/judges so they can tp to the ships
3. Give the instructions to EVERYONE present..
4. Have two observers/judges - one for each side
5. Crew the Observers/judge together and they can relay info to EVERYONE via privateer chat

on point #3 I think it would be better to tell everyone the rules... I had 4 peeps whispering me wanting to know what was going on while the rules were given and ships assigned -- that made it extremely difficult for me to follow what was being said in crew, between the whispers and beach chatter the chat scrolled too fast. Now you will have people spamming the beach rule chat -- Solution -- if they speak before the rules are completely given out --- disqualify them from the competition. Also after the rules are delivered allow a question and answer period for clarification purposes.

Just a suggestion that may organized this a bit better for everyone involved. Plus I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your time in putting on this event.
