I question these:
A: How do we choose the Captains?
B: Which of the two captains gets their way when they have contradicting matchups?
C: Would the new goal to take down the captain? Taking down their defenses?

A: could be volunteers, randomly selected, etc. doesn't matter that much.
B: I would do a coin flip, where winner could either have first draft pick or sets first matchup.
C: not really. Goal should still be to get most wins as a team.
Finer points to decide would be following the first match, is it the winning team that keeps the power to select the next match, or the losing team.
doesn't matter that muchYou serious? This could be the biggest decision in the entire tourney.
nah I think IRL is fine for this, just reject the tryhard bots.
>light vs darkI just took the name off of a spectacular game mode off a spectacular game.
might as well call it HONKIES vs NIGGERS you racist
you might want to contact one of the actual mods to get your tournament into singups, yugi has been pretty inactive lately
Wouldn't it make sense to have a competitive tournament in a competitive metagame rather than one that is absolutely not suited for competitive battles? Also, how will you keep the teams from being horribly mismatched, for example, everyone is an edgelord and chooses dark?nah I think IRL is fine for this, just reject the tryhard bots.
+1
IRL is only an issue when you let tryhard bots through: filter out the blatant BS and you will be fine.

I'd still go with selecting which bots to use by having team votes on which of their bots is going to be used in the next round. it seems like it would add a layer of strategy to the tournament, which truly make the most use of the team gimmick. It means bots can be used to instantly counter another bot if they think the opponent will use it. A little bit of chance but mostly strategy.Maybe its an idea for another tournament, but for now, I don't know how to make this work without one team being on top early and the other team basically being doomed.

Sure this is all possible in the current tournament, but having all the match-ups be by chance lowers the possibility of it being 7 vs 1 after the first round.
Having it be 8 and 0 after the first round is literally my worst nightmare for this tournament.

Rather than voting for next matchup, what if each team just selected their next bot to compete, not announce matchups. Early on this wouldn't seem to make a difference, but as the available pool of opponents dwindles it becomes more of a team strategy of which bot to put forward.

Please refrain from telling others your team.
Though I cannot stop you from PMing each other, I highly recommend you don't.
So... Where'd I mess up?
HWYou seriously can't read the second line in the rules?
Me and Moully are entering. Shall be sending our bots soon.I look forward to seeing them.
I haven't seen playzooki's and TGM's entries, but I'm not entirely sure what grounds you can really fault them on when you consider this work of modern art:

as "IRL" enough to use as a byebot.
That bot was an experiment for Hypno arms as supports; it seemed IRL enough for me.(http://i.imgur.com/VI2GJ1K.jpg)
Gulden! A question.. if i would put one burst motor a wee bit in front of the other.. would that still be considering stacking? (Yes they will intersect, but not like the one i sent)Depends on how much a wee bit is.
NeonCalypso's entry denied.Uh. What did I send you?Though I have a feeling he just sent me the wrong bot
