BreakOut

[RoboBowler]

This event; hosted by an unknown person, as usual involves robots fighting to the death in a extremely dangerous arena, to win an 'unbelievable prize' which has incredible worth.
This robot combat tourney has a twist, making winning no easy feat, with the host adding a special rule- immobilization timers.
You are given a bank of time, in which you can get more time by defeating other robots, though if your timer reaches 0, you are disqualified instantly.
The robot which makes it through the tournament has a chance to fight the host’s machine, to take the big final prize.



Arena: Containment Cube

Timer Rules (IMPORTANT):

5 minutes starting time
Steal opponent's remaining time when KO
Time is transferred over between rounds.
If robot's time goes to zero, then the robot is disqualified.

The final robot will use the time it has remaining to try and defeat the final boss.

Match plan (for 16, best case scenario):

4 way matches - Eight qualify from this round
Four 1v1 matches - Four qualify from this round
Two 1v1 matches - Two qualify from this round
1v1 Final - One qualifies to the next round
Boss Battle- Winner faces the Boss in order to win the 'prize'

p.s. Since this is my first tournament, I can only have 16 competitors.

Seems interesting. You may want to scale down your image though, it's a little large.
Also I'm not sure is the Prize is real but really that needs to be laid out prior to signups.

[RedAce]

Sure. I'll enter. Probably whip something new up for this.

[Somebody]

Very neat idea for a tournament, I like it.

[RoboBowler]

I've added a poll to the thread.

[Philippa]

Totally entering this.

[The Ounce]

This is an interesting idea for a tournament.  I'll consider entering, but I don't know what weight class this will be.

[Philippa]

I think this would be better if it was called Timebomb, or The Final Countdown, or something to that effect.

It says that bots must be under 800kgs, so HW.

[RoboBowler]

I think this would be better if it was called Timebomb, or The Final Countdown, or something to that effect.

The reason I didn't call it something like that, is because it was originally a different idea, before evolving into this.
I may change it to one of those, or something similar to that.

[helloface]

I honestly feel like this would be better as DSL-S rather than IRL.

This guy is my favourite of the bunch. I don't know what MIOOP stands for.

nice boss

I may add some changes to General Generic for this.
On an unrelated note, IDK if it's been said already and if it has I'm sorry for repeating it, I love the enthusiasm from you, as this is your third tournament altogether so far. It's pretty awesome as you've not been here for so long. Keep it up and good luck with this!

[yugitom]

this is your third tournament altogether so far

First RA2 tournament. The GMod ones don't count.
