Oh hey, it's the edgiest GTMer trying to host a tourney again, and well, Throwback Throwdown gave me the idea of making a stock tourney whose point was to go back to when the game was released and when stock was at it's very start, a trip back to the roots.

Basically, this tournament is supposed to be oldschool stock a.k.a. Jimxorb stock, BBEANS 1 stock, or Starcore 1-2 level stock. So we nerfed HS and popups, which are the most dominant forces in the metagame.

I wonder if rammers need a nerf ?

pretty sure snapper loading wasn't around till like 07.

Naryar · « **Reply #4 on:** February 13, 2016, 02:25:06 PM »

Uh, then we could just ban snapper loading AND effe and do all our overlapping on servos.

Mystic2000 · « **Reply #5 on:** February 13, 2016, 02:26:38 PM »

snapper load is now banned

RedAce · « **Reply #6 on:** February 13, 2016, 02:39:04 PM »

I hope you don't mind me asking this, but did you want a logo to go with it? I mean, I guess it doesn't matter much, but it could make this tourney stick out more.

Oh I'm extremely interested in this. Don't worry, I'll come up with something.

Mystic2000 · « **Reply #7 on:** February 13, 2016, 02:42:39 PM »

i actually wasn't thinking of giving it a logo, but if you want to make one, then i guess i can't stop you, thanks for the interest by the way

Thrackerzod · « **Reply #8 on:** February 13, 2016, 09:04:29 PM »

yeah i'll enter

Silverfish · « **Reply #9 on:** February 13, 2016, 09:16:09 PM »

this ought to be interesting.... i'm in.

Mystic2000 · « **Reply #10 on:** February 16, 2016, 06:59:52 AM »

Is there anything i have to do so this can be moved to signups ?

RedAce · « **Reply #11 on:** February 16, 2016, 07:29:01 AM »

I think you need a poll with about 8 "yes" votes to move this on.

Gauche Suede · « **Reply #12 on:** February 16, 2016, 08:34:13 AM »

Pretty intresting, so let's rock baby !

09090901 · « **Reply #13 on:** February 16, 2016, 11:42:09 AM »

I would also ban dsa if you want to go old school

Mystic2000 · « **Reply #14 on:** February 16, 2016, 02:11:18 PM »

Added poll, gonna add my entry soon

yugitom · « **Reply #15 on:** February 16, 2016, 02:22:22 PM »

I don't feel like the question is worded properly. If one were to not want to enter but they believed that people would enter this tournament, they would say 'yes'. That doesn't mean that person is interested in entering, though.

Mystic2000 · « **Reply #16 on:** February 16, 2016, 02:37:56 PM »

Modified the poll

Gauche Suede · « **Reply #17 on:** February 16, 2016, 05:10:24 PM »

Wait, can I make my wedge overlap with the entire chassis ?

Mystic2000 · « **Reply #18 on:** February 17, 2016, 06:32:57 AM »

i.... don't exactly get what you mean ?
