This'll be a standard 16 entry tournament. I have decided to scrap the Community Choice because it was too complicated.
Here are the rules:
1: Either Stock or DSL HW. Poll concerning that has been added. I personally prefer Stock.
2: No cheatbot2
3: No BFE or AAM
4: Four Pools, with 4 bots. Everyone will have at least 3 matches.
5: Matches will be 2 minutes long.
6: If time expires, winner will be decided on points.
7: Realistic Rule applies for DSL, but not really for Stock.
8: Multibots are allowed, but may not weigh more than 400 kilos per bot.
9: Walkers are not allowed.
10: Bye bot will be Fatal Incision, from Starcore Packs: Here's the wiki article:
https://gametechmods.com/RA2wiki/index.php?title=Fatal_Incision11: You will receive 3 points for a KO, 2 for a WBP, 1 for a loss and 0 for a DQ.
12: In case of tie, Sudden Death will take place, where there will be NO TIME LIMIT and will only end when one bot wins.
13: Glitches are allowed if they are realistic.
14: If a bot havoks once, the match will be restarted, if it does it again it will recieve 0 points or be eliminated in later stages and 3 points will be given to the opponent.
15: I can AI, but PLEASE do it yourself, as I am a complete novice at the art.
16: The fun stuff: Your robot MUST be centered around a video game. It can be Duke Nukem, Space Invaders, Modern Warfare 3, WHATEVER GAME YOU WANT. However, only 1 person may use a game. For example, No Two Team Fortress 2 bots.
17: I'll need help making a splash and I need to find a decent recorder.
18: 2 robots will go through from one pool. The winner of Pool A will face the Runner Up of Pool B, The Winner of Pool B will face the runner up of A, The Winner of C will face the Runner Up of D and the Winner of D will face the runner up of C. Then, winner of Fight 1 will fight winner of Fight 3 and winner of Fight 2 will fight winner of fight 4. Then the final
19: There will be rumbles at the end, each pool of bots will fight each other in a 4 way match and the winners in another 4 way match to find the Rumble Champion.
20: If you want, a Champion of Champions match will be set up for the Rumble Champ and the Official Champ.
I will add more rules as we go along.
