TL;DR A relay race where you keep running after you pass on the baton.

Im kinda confused about the signup season thing. Do they have to be different bots or upgraded?

Both in a sense.  I should've probably emphasized that in the end you'll have three robots in the competition.

Bot 1 is entered in the first phase and goes through seasons 1-3 being optimized along the way.
Bot 2 is entered in the second sign-ups phase and goes through seasons 2-3 and is optimized only once.
Bot 3 is entered in the third sign-ups phase is only entered in season 3.

Is this gonna stay in signups as-is until places are filled, or will there be an opportunity to submit a 2nd bot (or will signups be cut short)?

The second robots are accepted once the first season begins.
Basically sign-ups and SBV will be occurring at the same time.

Just a clarification, in Season 2, does the robot you enter have to be an upgraded version of your first robot, or can it be something new entirely?
The first robot has to be an edited version.
Once you enter it, it stays around until the end.



On a side note, I don't think I clarified that people who didn't enter season 1 can still enter season 2.  So you don't necessarily have to enter a second robot either.

And even further off topic, RA2Winner denied.

So I can't reenter an unchanged bot?

You can, but it's not recommended.  Pretty sure you just took my sentence out of context.

Dang, why is it so hard to understand this tourney?

If you enter Season 1 with a robot, you can upgrade it for Season 2 as well as enter a new one. That's right isn't it, Gulden? Or have I misunderstood too?

How much leniency is there going be for upgrades? Is that something you're going to police as season 2 comes round?

As long as the original shape or concept of the robot stays the same, it should be fine.
I'd allow S2 Lockjaw to go to season 3 Lockjaw because it keeps the shape and paint scheme despite changing weapon styles, but I wouldn't allow S1 Chomp to go to S2 Chomp because it shares literally nothing with the original.

What I'm basically looking for is some sort of key trait that is shared from one form to the next.
Or you could just pull a Nightmare and just make small adjustments like adding srimechs.

Once the SBV comes up, the sign-ups will close for season 1 and season 2's will begin.
