PvP Event 1 – Cuppa Brawl, Latji 4 Rings: High Res zone Depending on who and how many sign up. Will have either wings or 1v1. The goal is to have a minimum of 1 tea cargo on your hold to fend off NPC pirates while duking it out. No build rules just make sure you can fit 1 tea commodity in your hold. If you lose your tea cargo to a Pirate, you’re automatically disqualified. You may also try to steal your opponents tea to win if you dare!
PvP Event 2 – Cuppa Derby, Location Latji 4b (-13.8269*, 150.5867*, 0.09g) in Latji. Scarab SRV only! It is a destruction derby to the SRV death, for TEA! Players will race around the crater to collect dropped Tea cargo from a ship hovering above (volunteers to drop cargo are welcome!). The first player/team to have the most Tea canisters and survives, wins! When the derby starts there won’t be any drop-in participants until the round is over.
PvP Event 3: Latji Cuppa Marathon. Safely haul 150 tons of Tea from Latji to Orrere in any build you can make. Real pirates will be notified of this race taking place to try and pull you over at your final destination. The final destination is to be announced a week before the event occurs! It’s up to you to manage a build to haul and defend yourself or boost away for your cargo’s livelihood! The team with the most Tea deposits to the FC wins! You may pull someone over if they’re in front of you too!
PvP Event 4: Latji Cuppa Sprint Same as the marathon rules wise, except all in system. Pirates will be notified and will pull you over as you race with 150 tons of Tea from an FC by the primary star to a TBD destination (will be announced a week before the event occurs!) in system. You may pull someone over if they’re in front of you too!

Rules:
This is a sanctioned pirating and PvP event in Open mode only. No law enforcement is needed here.
There will NOT be any clogging or menu logging allowed.
Turn crimes against me off!
No griefing or unnecessary ganking. If that occurs expect all participants to chase you out of the system.
Prior to PvP, members may discuss when to stop PvP (whether until someone says GG in chat or until rebuy) prior to the brawl. Participating members may 1 v 1 or wing v wing as they see fit. FCs are welcome to our system.
Please coordinate with The Code [CODE] if you plan to park an FC in their system for the distance hauling race.
Leave in game Powerplay and Fed vs Imp vs whomever politics out of this event. This is purely for everyone’s enjoyment.
Currently, until I coordinate with someone willing to let us use their carrier to deposit enough tea in their FC this is a BYOT (bring your own tea event). If anyone would like to offer or volunteer please let me know ASAP so we can coordinate FC parking and tea hauling endeavors and inventory. Or another option is to BYOT in your own FC to sell to participants.
All veteran and new players are encouraged to participate (no matter your allegiance)! If you participate and unable to defend yourself from a pirate who pulled you over, they WILL NOT send you to a rebuy screen if you parlay. Just RP along and they’ll move along their merry way. If you decide to try and run or attack them expect yourself to be shot at by the pirates trying to get their Tea!
Lastly, do not hire Mercs or outsiders to escort you if they’re not hauling tea themselves to defend you in the races. It’s dishonest and not honorable. For more information read The Code [Code] handguide on their ethics when it comes to pirating. The goal of this event is to encourage and instill confidence in CMDR’s to play in open mode while hauling or doing other missions while having fun and embrace/build up the ED community.
