OK, bear with me....
The scope of this event is weapons targeting skill. Targets will potentially be anything from your favorite playet to a Krystalline entity (not really important). Think of it as a shooting range of sorts. There will be several categories:
1. Stationary target / stationary shooter: shooting w/ weapon of choice (consider projectile weapons only). need some way to keep track of accuracy on bullseye of target.
2. Moving target / stationary shooter: similar to above
3. Moving target / moving shooter: similar to above
Awards to be recommended by faculty in all 3 categories (total of 9 awards)
Here's the fun part: Targets are to be other players based upon popular demand (and these players/targets will not gain/loose any prestige/stats while being a target). Also, the most popular target(s) will be ranked first,second, and third (award to be recommended by faculty). Hey, if your the most popular target, you should at least get some props for it, lol.

Uh... You do know darkspace has Auto-aim, right? It tracks things and such, to where there isnt much 'aiming'..

Other then firing distance and auto weapon aim fire. Forcefully slap on a wad of ECMs to the target ships, and make a rule for no beacon fire. Then the user would have no choice but to use CTRL+Click aiming, sounds fun.

sorry about the confusion, I should have been clearer. It was off the hip. I really wanna vote on my favorite target (yeah, the player I really want to shoot at the most, lol). Oh, forgot to mention one thing. If you're voted into being a target, you'll need to make an appearance (mandatory). It'll be fun. The manual aiming is what I meant initially. It's handy, and like previously mentioned, especially w/ cloaked ships (I'm not Kluth bashing here). ...sniper attacking is pretty useful also!
