But Sparkles, then we'd have flying monstrosities with cannons. It'd be more like Warhammer 40,000 than a RA2 tourney.

That makes 17/10 then. Also why is that called "The Tourney of Awesomeness". It seems like a standart DSL HW tourney to me.

Sounds cool. 19 entries is different, as is the NCAA bracket.

Yeah. The 16th, 17th, 18th, and 19th bot to enter will face off in a WildCard Heat, where the last bot standing moves on to the regular tournament.

You might want to clarify the rule on more than 1 active weapon and less than 5 active weapons. Does that outlaws static weapons ? Are you talking about weapon system or number of weapon components ? Etc

And honestly you really could have found a more original name for your tournament... but i am in.
