IDEA: RA2 2020 Tournament Season

<< < (2/5) > >>

Hoppin:
I gave this some thought after talking with Orc about it.

I think it might be a good idea to have a ranking system, in which tournament placments award X amount of points, the higher you place, the better. at the end of the season, you could take the top 8/16/32 or w/e and use that as your tournament entries.

The issues I have with my current thought is maintaining the ranking system, originally I was looking at having all forum contributions awarding you points, but that was probably too much to handle

Will the rankings be for the builder, the bot, or both?

Nightraven Shade:
Points bases on how many entries in the tournament would be a better idea, (16 entries = semi gives points, 32= quarters and so on). Then you can have a more average ranking not a case of who got lucky that particular tournament and have maybe top 14 at end of year compete with first and second getting a first round bye.

I'd be fine hosting IF tournament if people were actually interest in them but most people only play IRL and struggle to get 4 entries at times for IF.

Builder

TheOrcCorp:
I am liking the sounds of a points system depending on where builders placed in a tournament! Thank you Hop/Nightraven for your suggestions, think this could make it a lot better.

CHANGES LISTED IN BOLD.

The RA2 2020 TOURNAMENT SEASON (name WIP)
- To try and encourage people to host/take part in tournaments, this Season would be a topic of some sort showing a list/calender of official tournaments.
- Hosts would have to sign their tournament up to be added to the official list/calender. New/unreliable hosts would probably have to commit to finishing a tournament first before having tournaments accepted.
- Builders will get points depending on where they finish in these tournaments. Around the Top 16 or so compete to be the champion of their respective metas. (with a custom award for added "ooooooh" factor!)
- I'm also thinking of adding BOTM and Challenge Belt into this somehow. BOTM is a lot easier of an idea (The 11/12 BOTM winners would be voted on, robot with the most votes wins Bot Of The Year). Challenge Belt could be top 8 or so builders that held the belt for the longest? Still unsure for this.

Thanks for the help so far, all criticism/ideas are still welcome as this is a big idea!
