General Tournament Discussion

[Wolfsbane]

Would anyone be interested if we have a tournament similar to ironbot? that in my own opinion is the most original and coolest tourney i've seen.

[Badnik96]

Mr. AS' Super Smash Bots tourney is fairly similar to Ironbot IMO, except it has lives and you don't lose components permanently.

I had an idea where there was rounds and every round would have a different restriction, like one would say: (MW, No Irons, Razers, or maces.)
and an other one would say (HW, No HPZ. Must use redbirds.)
Would anybody be interested? If so I will be doing that.

1) That'd be a lot of work - something to not consider until you've finished your current tournament.
2) The Entry Level Rules state each entrant may only enter a maximum of 3 robots, so if you wanted more, you'd have to get to Major League, which would mean running 3 successful tournaments after RR is finished.

can someone link me to a screen recorder that works well with RA2?

Bandicam's demo will suffice. You'll have to deal with the logo tho, but you can add in your own logo if you wish.

We should have another replica tournament of some sort.

Guys, im thinking about doing a tourney, but my AI skills are limited to a bot name swap in the bindings with the same bot type, and a smart zone placement. I also have my last term within school soon, and basically will not have the time to perform this tournament. I would like to TRY, but unless everyone is ok with BLOOPier AI than stock within DSL 3. Oh, and i can change the nose value to make it work.
Idea for tournament is here:
16 People. 4 matches of 4 people. The 4th placed person goes into Delta Bracket, 3rd - Gamma Bracket, 2nd, Beta bracket, 1st goes into Alpha.
This effectively sets the difficulty of each of the brackets, creating massive battles, and much smaller matches.
Top 2 go through to Epsilon Bracket. It is a standard Double Elimination bracket.
Main Rules: DSL CW IRL. Cheatbot2 can only be allowed for Judge Bursts, and Lifter Motors.
You may use replica cheatbot2 parts, but you may have to have your bot exposed to public to decide if the use is fair or not.

I kinda like the idea.
