hey. I want to do some small online tournaments for fun that are a little easier than centauri. we will likely get another centauri at some point too.
here's what I'm thinking. I want to be able to film these in an afternoon pretty easily. A league-type setting will be best for this I think where I'll do one every week or two and i'll do a bunch hopefully so if you miss one you can enter another no big d.
I'll host a new one every week/other week/whenever.4 competitors. first come first serve.
Same basic rules as centauri (controls, setup, etc). Probably 1v1, Bo3, double elimination, 3 min unless stated otherwise.
There will be a different theme (meta, arena, gimmick, etc) every week. I will probably decide most in advance but I will open some to votes. I think I'll open the first one to a vote just to get some suggestions and test the waters.
NA entrants only most likely again for latency reasons. I can be convinced otherwise if we do a lag test and it's acceptable.
Here's some ideas:
10 min build-off
Pick a stock ai HW
mystery meta
random arena
everyone submits a bot and you have to drive someone else's
n00b warz: pvp
flyers
walkers
winner drives the losers bot (thanks thrack)So. suggestions? I'll probably do this next week and name a theme after i get some feedback then first come first serve. I want this to be pretty casual. My personal votes are for pick a stock bot or thrackerzod's suggestion.
