Tournament Archives / Hell's Arena- Signups

« on: January 24, 2011, 05:42:13 PM »

RULES FOR THE FIRST EPISODE

- NAR AI HW (no cheaty NAR parts, just the re-skins)
- Multibots ARE allowed
- Multibots have to be in the same weight class, in total,can weigh no more than 400.0 kgs.
- No cheat or custom components
- No BFE or AAM
- Stacking is allowed, but no other glitches
- Hell's Arena (see below)
- 16 entrants (I WILL NOT accept less than this. Sorry, but the tourney will screw up if I do.)
- Bots can Havok as much as they want. It's more fun that way.
- 3 minute matches
- 1 vs 1
- Nobody can be entered until a bot is received and accepted
- Realistic Rule applies loosely
- I would prefer for you to AI, but I can AI myself.
- Skinning your bot outside the bot lab is OK.
- No castor armor (it's DSL, ok?)
- No NARmour

For the first round, I will have each set of bots fight each other (1st to sign up vs. 16th to sign up, 2nd to sign up vs. 15th to sign up, etc.). The winners will be on the Red Team for the season, the losers will be on the Blue Team.

REST-OF-THE-SEASON RULES

It will be kind of like Hell's Kitchen (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hell%27s_Kitchen_%28U.S.%29), only with RA2. THERE WILL BE ONLY 16 ENTRANTS! The team will cooperatively build a bot. Each builder will be assigned to a specific part (chassis, armour, drive motors, wheels, motors, weapons, extras, paintjob). Every week, the bot type (hammer, popup, rammer, etc.), and mod (Stock, DSL, Backlash) will be different.

ELIMINATION

The two bots from both teams will face off in an AI-ed battle to determine that week's winning and losing teams. Each "week" (about 3 days), I will assign who I thought was the best of the losing team the Best Of The Worst. They will have to come up with 2 nominees, their fellow team members who they thought performed the worst, up to me. I will then eliminate the one nominee that I thought was the worst.

(I will not sign up, because I will be hosting.)

Existing Games / Gametechmods Generally Mayhem Awesomeness Tournament (GTMGRMAT)

I will be using Jonzu's GRRC cars and tracks (so credit to him for making the Game).

ALL RACERS ARE AI'D

Bracket will be a heat system. Each heat will race a 10-race Grand Prix. The top 3 racers from each heat advance.

Heats:

The top 3 racers from each heat will face off against the top 3 racers from the next heat. This will go on, until there are 6 racers left (the final heat). The winner of this heat will become the ULTIMATE CHAMPION!*

It will be kind of like Hell's Kitchen (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hell%27s_Kitchen_%28U.S.%29), only with RA2. THERE WILL BE ONLY 16 ENTRANTS! I will use The Hat to decide which team each contestant will be on, and each week, they will face a challenge with a randomly selected type of bot that they will have to build, and face off against an AI bot from a random AI pack of the same type. Each builder will compete against an AI bot of the same type, and the team with the most match-wins will win that week.

Each week, my decision will be to eliminate the person that I think "performed" (built their bot) the worst
from the 2 nominees that the losing team's Best of the Worst builder chooses.

Chatterbox / Farewell.

« on: September 11, 2010, 09:05:30 AM »

Guys, this is not a joke, and I'm not pulling a Sparkey. I've been banished from RA2 and Gametechmods because it's been "getting in the way of my schoolwork". So this is farewell until January, my friends. So long, and I hope the forum runs along smoothly without me.
