The problem I can foresee with a big GTM tournament is choosing mod and building style, since we're all so spread over everything now.

Well, for that, I'd just choose the most popular versions of each, to make sure most are happy. I'm happy to adapt to DSL and standard building if this does go on, so I'd be just an extra.

Yeah, but what happens if a vote is taken to see the most popular and it goes something like this:
Stock - 40%, DSL - 30%, Ironforge - 30%
Sure, more people chose Stock than DSL and more people chose Stock than Ironforge but that means that only 40% of the voters would be happy because 60% wanted something else. There are solutions to this but I don't want to make GTM's voting system complicated if it needn't be :P

People may join whatever the winning metagame is anyway because it'll be the big one and they won't want miss out. Just thought I'd point that out.

 This thread screams GTM so much, some ****wagon like HA being his usual cancerous self, running around for attention making me wonder why we ever let him free.
 The new guy who seems pretty likeable screwing himself over and not realizing it.
 People who have been on both of these ends in the past looking at this and are crying
 And the mods who are questioning why they ****ing unbanned HA (atleast thats what I hope they're doing)


Tournament though, I think it''d be best to run 2 tournaments, One for more IRL Builders and one for the infinite razor cluster****s yall find so entertaining.

Everyones happy then

Thanks. You're probably the first to not directly insult me here.

Agreed. We'd still have to find the ideal mod for this. Id say either ironforge for simplicity or DSL for varied bots. (We cant forget burst motors passing straight through batteries, though :P)

One solution would be to rotate like in BBEANS.

Only slightly plausible solution there is, but honestly as great as the idea is we don't have enough people who build in all mods to fill each and every one to the same standard.

That is a good point, but this was just one idea to get gtm more active. Maybe a regular online thing could raise interest in ra2. IMO, it would be best to do more than once a week because of timezones and distances between countries, causing lag. We can only have 4 in one room, but this could be solved by having a room for each mod (Maybe more if it is successful).

OMG SO RANDOM, REIER! IT'S SO HILARIOUS!

You know what else was random and hilarious?

The Holocaust.

Dude! Too far...
Welcome to the internet. To your left is Holocaust jokes and dank memes. To your right is the copious amount of pornography. You're free to browse any of it. We hope you enjoy your stay.

Also, where do I find the cat videos?

Don't blame HA for this. He posted some pretty mild bait. It was the new guy's decision to fall for it hook, line, and sinker. Carrot and Playzooki did most of the flaming afterwords, so they're more to blame for the drama than Andy. This is some typical GTM drama though. Sometimes I think the drama is what keeps me interested, but I'll still call out the people acting a fool.
im just waiting for meganerdbomb to come along and kick things into gear.

I admit, I was a fool, however, I don't know why everyone is calling me "the new guy", I mean, I've been around here for almost 2 months, I'm hardly new.
