These matches aim to enrich our members' skills and provide an outlet for competitive engagement. The goal of Uni Fight Club is to cultivate piloting and PvP abilities within a controlled, supportive, and enjoyable environment.

===Rules and Procedure===

* EVE Uni Fight Club (UFC) employs a set of bookmarks to mark out its fighting arenas, which should be stored in a shared folder like corporate bookmarks for universal access.

* Each arena consists of three bookmarks: Center, Red~~, and Blue~~. Red and Blue are positioned opposite each other, each 10km from the Center bookmark. Arenas must be at least 600km away from the Bleachers.

* Each arena consists of three bookmarks: Blue, Center, and Red. Red and Blue are positioned opposite each other, each 10km from the Center bookmark. Arenas must be at least 600km away from the Bleachers.

[[File:Fight-club-arena.jpg|frameless|none]]

* The Bleachers bookmark serves as both a ready room and a spectator area.

* The number of arenas should match the desired number of simultaneous fights. Traditionally, UFC employs four arenas with the Bleachers at the center and each arena positioned equidistantly more than 600km away in one of the "compass directions" provided by the tactical overlay.

Uni Fight Club/New Friend Speech

- welcome (can be theatrical, with references to Fight Club / Wrestling / Robot Wars / etc.)

- check to see how many attendees have never attended a Fight Club (get a sense of how deep you need to go into the rules)

- run-down of event, goals of Fight Club

- attendees free to arrive when they want, leave when they had enough

- arena setup: bookmarks for center, blue/red starting point, bleachers

- arena available outside of scheduled Fight Club sessions also, everybody encouraged to find sparring partner for individual practice

- default procedure for combat:

-> 1v1 in any allowed ship

-> always changing opponents (definitely keep notes)

-> start at bleachers

-> ask for x'ups, then pair up pilots with their arena in fleet chat (example: pilot A, pilot B CION)

-> pilots should start approaching center bookmark upon getting their arena assigned

-> each pilot individually decides on red, center, or blue bookmark without mentioning it aloud

-> at the start signal, immediately initiate warp to the chosen bookmark at 0km (no warping at range!)

-> combat then commences with no further countdown

-> IMPORTANT: call for combat comms during fights. It is distracting if people are talking and you can't hear a pilot surrender if people are talking

-> grid not limited, but fly away from bleachers if kiting (host note: if a fight is running long, ships are far apart, not really a fight/no damage being exchanged, it is your prerogative to end the fight as a draw)

-> combat stops when one ship is down to 25% hull

-> each pilot can freely choose to concede before that and end the fighting

-> if not tackled, pilots are free to warp off to bring fight to a draw. no shame in leaving a fight you can't win.

-> respect when a pilot concedes

-> no podding/no drugs/no implants

-> after fight, warp back to Dairek's Chateau for repairs and/or new ship

-> debrief: fits, fighting strategy, result, areas for improvement

-> remind everyone that there is a supply container in Dairek's Chateau with ammo, charges, drones if pilots need to top off their ship

- options to deviate from default: pilots can agree to

-> show each other their fits ahead of time

-> decide on initial warp-in bookmarks openly

-> continue fighting until one ship is destroyed

- UFC fits available for 0 isk on contract at Slays - Dairek's Chateau

- SRP for personal ships that get destroyed (limit of 2)

- have Korsiki shared BM folder online

- join UFC fleet, use Watch List to make it easy to follow the fights

-------

MOTD for Fight Club Fleet:

- Korsiki BM folder - 08 Fight Club

- name of UFC bookmarks for reference

- link to consolidated info post with UFC fits

- UI pointer to the Contracts window

- links to SRP form and wiki page

OTHER NOTES

- Check the UFC contracts at least one day before your event. Make sure that you have at least 5 contracts for each ship:

-UFC Kestrel Armor

-UFC Condor LML Kiter

-UFC Incursus Brawl

-UFC Rifter 200mm AC

-UFC Tormenter Pulse

-UFC Breacher DualRep

-UFC Tristan Neuts

- If you see that the stocks are low, you should ping <proper Uni role for refreshing UFC contracts>

- Ping on Discord at least once 3 hours beforehand. Typically, a ping an hour before and at the start are good, too.

- Using the in-game notepad to track who has fought whom is quite helpful
