Pretty even, IMO.

Like a round robin! Each category has three dueling nations with a delegate from each. In the end we see which nation (or everyone else) is superior.

for arenas...


I can make a low wallcombat zone without hazards or lower the walls of the raw arena


I own a low wall small arena that I made for lower class robots


for teams...


I think the current system I posted works pretty well, mixes everything around.


I was originally thinking teams of 3 with a LW, MW and HW. 3 brackets. the winner gets 4 points, 2nd - 3, 3rd - 2 and last 1 point. after the 3 tournaments a winner is decided

Not original though... Robogames.net claims to have been formerly Robolympics.

Though, you are a smart chap, I think you can think of another one! :D
