== Fleet Cup Rules ==

In order for a fleet cup to be eligible for Black Sphinx Cup consideration, the fleet cup must adhere to the following rules.
* The fleet cup must consist of three distinct challenges, chosen from the approved list.
* The fleet cup must consist of three challenge periods. A challenge period is a three-month period where one challenge is conducted at a time, with buffer for follow up and preparation for the next challenge.
* The fleet cup’s challenge periods must adhere to the following schedule:
** '''Challenge period 1''': February 15–May 15
** '''Challenge period 2''': May 30–August 30
** '''Challenge period 3''': September 15–December 15
** '''Winner portfolios due to office of 1SL''': January 15th
* '''No extensions''' for challenge periods will be permitted.
* '''All three fleet challenges must be chosen and announced prior to the start of the first challenge period'''.
* Fleet commanders may choose to repeat the same challenge for multiple periods.
* '''Only full chapters may participate''' in the fleet cup challenges. A full chapter is defined as '''any hyper-capable naval unit or LAC''' under the command of that fleet’s fleet commander. HMSS Greenwich may participate, other stations and pinnaces may not.
* If a chapter '''upgrades to a larger vessel between challenge periods''' and retains 90% of their previous crew listed at the end of the previous challenge, the previous challenge win will carry over and be credited to the newly upgraded chapter. If the 90% threshold is not met, the situation will be reviewed and ruled upon by the staff Intelligence officer for the First Space Lord and a decision will be made on a case-by-case basis.
* If a chapter '''downgrades to a smaller vessel between challenge periods''', their previous challenge win will carry over and be credited to the newly upgraded chapter
* '''At the end of EACH challenge period, the officially listed CO, XO and bosun of a participating chapter must have met their rank testing requirements'''. Chapters who submit a final challenge report or submission whose current CO, XO and/or bosun have not met their rank testing requirements '''will be disqualified from the challenge'''. It is the responsibility of the fleet commander to confirm that these rank testing requirements have been met before declaring a winner for each challenge and for the overall Cup.
* Only the activities or contributions of those who are officially listed as members of a specific chapter on the TRMN Medusa Database may be submitted for that chapter.
* '''At the end of challenge period 3, the winner of the fleet cup is the chapter which has the highest competition point total. In the case of a tie, the tie breaker rules will be followed'''.
* The winning chapter of a fleet cup '''must be awarded the Fleet Excellence Award''' (Battle “E” with Gold Device) by the fleet commander.

=== Changing a Challenge ===
Sometimes fleets may want to change one of their challenges during the year. The desire to change challenges may be due to several reasons, such as lack of interest or the desire to assist a community after an unexpected natural disaster. The process of changing a challenge is outlined below.
* Fleet commanders may request to change one of the fleet challenges during the course of the year.
* Only one challenge change is allowed per year.
* Once a challenge period has started that challenge cannot be changed.
* '''All challenge change requests must be submitted and approved by the 1SL staff Intelligence officer no later than 2 weeks prior to the start of a challenge period'''.
* To begin the process of submitting a challenge change request, The fleet coordinator must first contact each chapter CO via email to notify them of a potential challenge change.
* The CO email must contain what the current challenge is, what the challenge would change to, and the reasoning as to why the change is being requested.
* Chapter COs then have one week to respond to the email. COs can either agree with the change, disagree, or suggest a different challenge to change to.
* If a CO does not respond to the email within one week, the fleet coordinator will assume that the chapter agrees with the change.
* '''ALL chapter COs in the fleet MUST AGREE to the challenge change'''.
* Once all chapter COs have agreed to the change, the fleet coordinator submits the request to the fleet CO.
* The fleet CO will review the request and, if they agree with the change, will submit the request to the 1SL staff Intelligence officer.
* The 1SL staff Intelligence officer will then review the request. If they agree with the request, they will approve the change and the challenge will change.
* If the 1SL staff Intelligence officer disagrees with the change, they will deny the request and give an explanation for the denial.
