I think you can make up your own challenge; for example, some people are playing strict, some people are suing the Azdara, some people are using escorts, etc...

Just describe the circumstances of your victory (or defeat) when you post. Good luck Blackdog!

Sure, I was just saying that the gladiators should state the version they use in their list of rules. Also, I see nothing wrong with using the Monty Python, as it is a legitimate tactic to use in a fighter. On the other hand, I think devious tricks like targeting an Arada while aiming at an Igazra should be banned. I'd also consider restricting the use of the auto-pilot.

Heh, in my mind both exploit a flaw in the AI to succeed and if one is illegal, so is the other.

Not necessarily. With the shoot-don't-scan technique, the AI should attack you, but doesn't. The Monty Python, however, takes advantage of the AI's reaction to chase a fast ship. The Monty Python takes skill to pull off, and if you mess up, you get fried. An Igazra being shot at but not targeted never attacks back.
