Forum:Third Wars Tag Team - Discussion

Here is the main discussion page for the short but hopefully sweet Third Wars Tag Team tournament. It'll be based primarily on the Tag Team we never received during the Third Wars. This discussion will be held before any tournament starts as we will need to decide on a few things.

Judges
Currently, the Judges are Toast, CrashBash and myself, but of course as I am hosting this tournament I cannot be a judge so I would first like to ask if any of current judges wish to stay on. Should any of them decide to step down, feel free to nominate yourself or someone else as their replacement. Also we will need a third judge.
 * I would be happy to become a Judge for this tournament. SpaceManiac888   (Talk)  13:23, May 27, 2019 (UTC)

Format
Next is the format. As it is based on a cancelled format I don't know whether users will want to keep it more traditional/realistic or go for a more fantasy route. Here are some options, feel free to choose.


 * 1) Option 1: Go for the First World Championship route of having Eight Eliminators then a Quarter-Finals, Semi-Finals and Grand Final. This means a total of 32 Robots will compete.
 * 2) Option 2: Have four separate Heats, all similar fashion to the Fourth Wars Tag Team with a Eliminator, Third place playoff and a Final. All four Heat Winners will progress to a Grand Final. This sees a total of 32 Robots as well. See New Blood Championship as an example.
 * 3) Option 3: Two Heats with a round robin format, most points go to a final with one Heat winner. Second Heat will do the same, with one final fight between the two Heat winners. This is significantly lower in robot department in comparison to the other two but is also the shortest with a total of 16 Robots competing. See the Extreme 2 Allstars for an example.
 * 4) Option 4: Once again, have four separate Heats BUT have it as a Round Robin. This sees a total of 32 Robots.

Option 1: One big competition

 * 1) Yeah, why not. Since there are no seeds, there is no point splitting up teams into heats. A Round Robin will take too long in my opinion, so I opt for randomised chaos instead. SpaceManiac888   (Talk)  13:23, May 27, 2019 (UTC)
 * 2) It's what they did with the World Championship, so canonically it makes sense. CrashBash (talk) 13:29, May 27, 2019 (UTC)
 * 3) This seems like the way they would have run the tournament in Series 3, and with the chance of there being some really poor robots competing, a round robin will get boring as the same bad teams will lose a lot. J  im laa  d4   3 (talk) 13:30, May 27, 2019 (UTC)

Nominations
Obviously, would prefer to choose a format first but seeing as three of the four have 32 robots competing it is best for a selection process to be done! That said based on what SpaceManiac888 found some teams already exist, these do have some F2Q robots. So I will ask all user to nominate at least 10 Pairings you would like to see. These can be ANY robot from Series 3 and can, if wanted, included F2Q robots.
