Dominator of Dragons (SignUps)
« on: April 05, 2011, 12:58:30 AM »
This is an unusual tournament.

Tournament Structure:

There are no brackets for the first two rounds:

Round One

There will be 4 groups (where by all the entries will be randomly distributed evenly throughout, with four robots in each group).
In each group, these bots will be randomly given a number that relates to their order of the cycle.

First, the first and second bot in the cycle will fight in a match (single round).
Second, the next bot in the cycle replaces the loser, and another match ensues.
This continues in each group until a bot wins 3 times consecutively, whereby this bot qualifies for round two and is taken out of the cycle.
In this case, the loser is still replaced with the next bot in the cycle, but the winner is replaced too.

This continues until two of the bots have qualified, or after one less of the number of bots left in the cycle matches of no bot qualifying, the bot(s) with the highest wins in total will qualify. (If there are two or more bots with the same number and only one space remaining , a match between them will ensue and the winner gets the slot.)

Round Two

Same as round one, but the robots are re-assigned a group randomly and evenly (with four bots in each group); only two entries of each group will go through to the final.

Finals

Winner of two matches is the champion. Matches are 3 of 5.

Restrictions:

Stock
LW
No multibots
No BFE, AAM.
All glitches allowed.
All bots entered must have at least one red extender of any size in/on/attached/etc
Small havoks are ignored, large havoks (ones that fling your bot OOTA or make your bot trapped into the floor/walls etc.) will deem a restart. If another large havok happens, after this it is ignored, i.e. only one havok restart per match.

Arena:

RAT#2 Tournament Arena with hazards ON


Entries:

One update (modification or a new bot altogether) allowed before Friday 22nd April 11:59pm GMT.

You know it's a BAD idea to tell what your bot is...

Resent my bot...for about the 12th time. I'll bet you it's the red extenders that are the problem.

What's the difference between red and black extender? Except the colour?
