Relax, I was just joking. (That guy from Raven Tail provided "outside interference" in Lucy's fight) But who in the right mind would mind what she does. As far as I care, she can be the destroyer in the "vision" and I would be okay with that.

Mavis just guides them to locations anyway

she doesn't provide them with magic that could destroy the enemies they'll encounter, it's totally up to them if they can beat the people they encounter

Don't worry, I was kidding too . I know that after the games, FT is probably gonna go to hell in a Hiro Hamster ball, so let's enjoy all the pwning moments we can.

It's cheating and that is still outside interference though the final battle is supposed to 5 person teams competing in a battle royal they have 6th person actively helping them defeat there oppentents by telling where the other comptetiors are and how the counter them.
Now I don't really care that Fairy Tail is cheating they've never really cared if they followed the rule or not so it's not a big surprise and really rather in character for them considering everything that has transpired.

Also, the rules say that the master of the guild cannot participate. Mavis is the FORMER master of FT, also, no one else can see her, so no muss, no fuss.

I'd say she isn't even doing that. All her dialogue after "move to your designated points" is her explaining their strategy to Makarov and company.

She's not telling them where other competitors are, or how to counter them. She told them prior to the start where they should encounter enemies, and how to counter the attack Rufus was likely to use.

That's I took it too. She told them this plan BEFORE they left, she is just narrating it for us readers and the rest of the guild.

If you read later you can see that she now says "I can no longer predict how the battles will go" meaning up to this point she had it all predicted.

You could be right but even if she was feeding them real time information they still would have had to come up with stragety as far who was going take who and some general routes before hand.
Also just reread it and the translations I have found don't have anywhere thatr she says "I can no longer predict how the battles will go". She does say when asked if she had thought about Jura she says "I have, but I can't decide of a way to handle him." which does make it sound as if she is contact with them presently. This seems like a translation issue and hopefully the next issue will make things clear.

Also it seems like Blue Pegasus cheated a little too if you read over the rules in chapter 304 say that when encounter an opponent you have to fight them the winner gets points the loser is out and the fight is over whenever one you can't battle so Hibiki really should had to finish his fight with Gajeel. Now I know why the author did things that way it makes for much better effect of them out manevuring them like that.

Given that this is a battle FT can't afford to lose, Regardless of whether or not Mavis is communicating with Team FT in real time, she has done the following:

1. Predict the fights and enemy movements on the field up to this point.

2. Use these predictions to SET UP fights between FT members and enemies (ST members etc) accordingly so that they only engage in fights that FT will win!

It is important to stress this second point. as a successful tactician and this being an important battle, Mavis would not be setting up fights where the out-come will be a toss-up (though for reader's pleasure the fight pairings are exactly as what previous chapters foreshadowed). In my opinion, Mavis has rigged the fights in this battle royal and that is cheating. However, I do not care as these fights will be awesome, and like people have pointed out before, FT doesn't follow the rules anyway :P

Karen? Oh, her, yeah. She was quite the drama queen. And Lucy surpassed her power long before any of what is happening now. Quite funny in retrospect since Karen was suppose to be a strong Celestial Mage...XD

I'm going through the manga one major story arc at a time. I finished the Tower of Paradise Arc, so it's not too long before I reach the Nirvana Arc. But still, that is 200 chapters away from the latest.
