Title: Interesting tourney Idea....
Post by: System32 on March 27, 2009, 06:06:42 PM
While I was browsing the GUMBA thread Naryar posted one of his "Improvements", and that for me thinking about two things:

1) He does know you can't mod a bot halfway through a tournament, right?

2) How about a tournament where after each round the bots that arn't destroyed are allowed to be fixed up, if only a little.

8 bots, loser's bracket and after each round they are allowed to "Evolve" if you will. A VS can be made into an angled VS, then a FS, then a wedged FS, then a Juggler, then a TS, then a single HS, then a Dual HS, then a HS/Rammer hybred, then a wammer, then a popup, then a hammer....

Downside: All perticapants must be active, and the tourney can be slow.

It would make for a more strategic tournament exerience, don't you think?

It would, but the entrants would have to be people already steadfast on the forums.

I know that, that's why I reccomend an 8 bracket tourney. EX:

Naryar, R0B0, Reier, Me, Inf, R8115, Sage, Somebody.

I would do it if it was DSL. I don't post much, but I check the forums at least once a day.

Sorry Urjak, I was thinking of those who come to the top of my head.
