Forum:Ragnabot 3 Sweepstake

The Ragnabot Sweepstake returns for the third time. Every user who signs up is randomly assigned a selection of the heat winning robots to "support" through the rest of the tournament, with points awarded for battles won.

It must be reiterated that the Sweepstake must have no effect on your voting habits in the remaining battles, and any vote which implies this will be struck. However, that isn't to say you can't bring up that this is your sweepstake robot at any point or show some support for it while giving genuine battle reasons otherwise.

Depending on the number of sign-ups, I will work out whether it's more appropriate to deal out the robots for the Top 96 or Top 64. Please sign-up below if you wish to be involved in the Sweepstake. Users signing up to the Sweepstake must have made at minimum 5 battle votes in the Qualifiers or Heats of Ragnabot 3. If that is an issue, there is still time to vote in the last heat.

Two awards will be given out. The first award is to the user who is awarded the winner of Ragnabot 3, and the second is for whoever's team scored the most points.

The points will be awarded at the round in which each robot finishes:
 * Melees: 2
 * Quarter-Finals round 1: 5
 * Quarter-Finals round 2: 10
 * Semi-Finals round 1: 15
 * 8th place: 18
 * 7th place: 19
 * 6th place: 21
 * 5th place: 22
 * 4th place: 24
 * 3rd place: 26
 * 2nd place: 30
 * 1st place: 35

Overcomplicated yes, but it should make the 5th-8th placing fights actually mean something for the sweepstake, and it doesn't just guarantee that the person who gets the winner will win automatically.

Draw process
When decided, I will livestream the draw on my Twitch channel at 10am UK time on Saturday 21st December. The process will be as follows:
 * 1) All signed up users will be drawn into an order.
 * 2) Users will then be assigned a number of robots through another random draw.
 * 3) The robots will then be drawn.

This is your last call to sign up. I am free Saturday morning, so I plan to do the draw then for 96 robots in the melees, so it will be on my Twitch at about 10am UK time. J im laa  d4   3 (talk) 15:39, December 18, 2019 (UTC)
