I'm considering making a tournament. I have several questions as I'm reading the rules:- If I accept bots that are AIed by the competitor and not me, do I have to have the very same smart zone pack installed that the author had? This is a rather technical question but I think it's relevant here.Good question. I'm not too sure if it matters, really. Just as long as the robot is clearly working as intended and it doesn't crash your game, you should be good to go. - What are the standards for the images and videos I upload for the tournament? Is it OK to just show the raw video capture, and let the viewers "feel free to fast forward through the boring parts" and "feel free to start your favorite music player to cheer it up"?The only bare minimum standard is that you show the end of the match where the winner is clearly presented. You do not need any fancy editing at all.- How I'm supposed to receive the bots, is there a standard way, or do I need to publish an e-mail address to do so? (danger of getting spammed)Via PM.- It seems a lot of tournament descriptions have a lot of exclusions (like excluding whole robot types or AI modes). Are these required to have an exciting tournament?That's relatively subjective, it's all up to you. Most bans and exclusions will depend on the host's preferences on what they want to see in their tournament, not necessarily what they think will make it the most exciting (although, it may be a good idea to keep that in mind, just so people enter :P)
