How is this enforced? I honestly don't think it is possible to make an non-official generic Ai tournament at this current moment, and even if it was, I'm not even sure how you would get the replays

[Kanishka]

GFX wanted someone to make an Unofficial Tournament. I did as he pleased.

[LuBeNo]

Any rules?

[Kanishka]

Any rules?

Use only generic AI. (One for all)

[mcompany]

I'm only not joining because it can't be enforced

GFX will probably find a way.

[Kanishka]

Need 3 more participants. I just accepted all the pending requests and bracketed all of us.

Any rules?

Use only generic AI. (One for all)

Do you mean one AI for all maps or for all bot classes?
That is, do you restrict the use of map-specific or bot class-specific AI?

[Arcueid_57]

Will it be single elimination or BO3, BO5?

BO3 or 5 is much more complex to put in place (total number of match is higher) but it give much more value to the results.

I would suggest one AI for all maps (no decorators and no map specific stuff). Botclass specific is like shield value specific. You shouldn't restrict that. Otherwise you could also have a tournament with no retreating rule, that's almost the same.

Gfx will not find a way to check that. It's up to the one organizing the tournament. You can ask people for not cheating or everybody has to send a low pixeled screenshot of the AI.

Exactly. One AI for all classes(must) and maps(preferably).

There is a way to limit this server side if it was programmed in, and that is to ask for only 1 AI at the very beginning and then not allow setting AIs when deploying. That said, I doubt that is happening right now

Bot class filter allowed?

Sure!

This Tournament is double elimination style.

It's not happening soon indeed.

...

Then suggest what to do with the Tournament.

[sollniss]

I could check it .

I suggest to don't take it as a technical question. It's about policy and tournament maker gives the policy.

You did that kanishka. So here is where we are:
1. Generic AI, one AI for all maps and bots. All filters allowed.
2. Double elimination

And what we need:
4. Date
5. Procedure for checking the AI to be generic
6. Gamemaster to put the results to the tournament page

Kanishka, I would suggest the following:
4: asap after we have 8 players
5: small screenshots of the used AI posted on the forum
6: kanishka can add the results to the toornament website and push the results in the forum
