then before the match... the referee... picks a category in random. then that would be how the match will be played.
It forces the players to expand their playing style. and tests the piloting and designing skills of each player.[/quote:2aee3cf5c5]
The intentions behind this idea are good, but I'm not entirely sure if it's for the best. For one, building different ACs for a tourney kinda defeats the purpose of 'bringing your best.' You'll have many ACs to choose from, and not all of them will surely be on par with each other performance wise. Lugi ka kaagad kapag napili yung legset kung saan ka mahina. We shouldn't really trust the choice of the AC to the referee also, it should really be upon the player himself to choose from the start what type of AC he'll be bringing to the table, depending on his preferences and where he's good at.
Also, building five or six tournament worthy ACs is a lot of hard work. Diffusing designing effort like that tends to decrease the level of polish in designs also.
In my opinion, we should have one and only one entry into tournaments.
On the subject of round robin though, ang problema lang naman talaga diyan ay yung time constraint natin eh, kasi otherwise maganda talagang gawin yun. Kung meron tayong place kung saan pwede tayong maglaro magdamag, round robin siguro ang gagamitin natin lagi. Kaso, yun na nga, hirap tayo sa oras, since hindi satin yung nilalaruan natin. Kung konti lang ang kasali sa susunod na PACT, or kung meron tayong maayos at mabilis na system for round robins, pwede siguro.
What do you guys think?
