TGTT - The Grand Team Tournament (Ideas,Entering)
« on: December 14, 2008, 09:23:54 PM »
I have wanted to try a tournament for awhile, but I have been having computer issues. It will be a pretty simple tournament. There will be 8 teams of 2 people, each person will build a bot in a different weight class (LW,HW). It will be set up in 2 different brackets, for each round you win you get a certain amount of points for your team, as follows:

Lose any round: 0 Points
Win first round: 2 Points
Win second round: 4 Points
Win third round: 6 Points

At the end of all the battles, the points will be added up and the team with the most points wins. (Not sure what, might just skin some components or something) Basic rules:

- Stock (not realistic)
- No cheat components
- Regular combat arena without hazards
- Tournament cannot start until we get 16 people.
- I will choose the teams by random, you will decide with your teammates who builds what class though. You can decide on a team name if you wish. If you are matched with somebody you don't want to be with then talk to me.
- When I get 16  entrants and the teams announced, there will be 3 weeks to build bots and such, may be longer if required.
- I would like bots to be AI'd before hand, but if you can't I can do it.
- After 3 weeks, I will need some time to create a splash and get the bots all ready to go, but I'll post videos every other day unless something urgent comes up after that. (I do have time to finish this)

You can enter now, I will accept entrants until we reach 16. There cannot be more than 16. This is also to discuss the rules and such.

Current Entrants:
<><><><><><>
1. R1885
2. Sage
3. H@zm47
4. 70hemicuda (No Bot)
5. Naryar (No Bot)
6. R0B0SH4RK (No Bot)
7. System32
8. WhamettNuht (No Bot)
9. Reier
10. man manu (No Bot)
11. kill343gs (No Bot)
12. Scrap Daddy
13. infiniteinertia (No Bot)
14. Somebody
15. andrewm0304
16. Madiaba (No Bot)

Teams:
<><><>
Working on balancing the teams right now, now have 8 bots so it should work out.

I'm in, but do we end up picking our own teams or is it random?


For once the mods did something right

I think you can either choose a team or let the host pick. I'd like to be in a random team.

It says in the front page that teams will be random.

I would think that overall it would be more fair if the teams were random, but if the majority of you guys want to pick then I could change it.
