Redemption - Signups
« on: September 03, 2018, 10:52:57 AM »
I want to start getting back into RA2 tournaments but, before I try to do anything big again, I want to prove to you and myself that I can finish a tournament on GTM, considering my recent track record. If this tournament goes well, I hope you can take my future tournament ideas seriously.

Building Rules:
Stock 1.4
HW
No BFE, AAM, Hax Mode and all that crazy stuff, this includes RA2CF in its entirety (no Ro7 break)
No cheatbot2
You are not allowed to update your bot once it's accepted, although you can attempt to enter as many times as you need

Tournament and Match Rules:
16 entries max (once I hit 8 entries, signups could end at any time)
Double elimination bracket
The Ring Arena
Best of 3 fights (1 Match = 3 Fights)
3 minute fights
There will be 1 havok restart per bot per fight. Havoking twice in 1 fight will result in a fight loss

Notes:
I will AI if you do not wish to or cannot do it yourself, just remember that if you want something done the way you envision it, do it yourself
If you have anything on your bot that does not come with Stock or AI essentials (skinned parts, custom AI lines or smartzones), inform me and send me a link to what I need for your bot
I reserve my right to deny your entry for any reason, although I will always be reasonable
There won't be any specific deadline but I would like the entire tournament to be done by the end of the month, so I don't want singups to take that long. I should be away from the 21st to the 23rd. So, if I'm ever stuck on an odd number of entrants, I might still proceed to SBV and deal with byes, so don't ever assume it's safe to sleep on this tourney. Basically, I'm just begging people to not be lazy and make my comeback worthwhile
All entries will be checked on a first-come first-served basis, although I can't promise I'll check your entry as soon as you send it, so make sure it's legal


I really do want to get back into the tournament scene, just as long as stock isn't too dead. I am willing to spice up my tournaments in terms of rules and gimmicks, in the future, because I am well aware that stock can be stale at the best of times. For now, though, I want to make sure I'm au fait with tournament hosting again.

Entries:
1. Philippa
2. RedAce
3. Badger
4. Hoppin
5. 8bean
6. Dreamcast
7. Billy5545
8. Plerco
9. geese
10. NeonCalypso
11. Guldenflame

Received = Black
Accepted = Blue

I like stock. It's better than DSL-S (and its builders)

I will enter
Guess who's back

Plerco accepted.

If you've been sitting on this, you've probably only got about 12-24 hours left.
