Fukit, let's just go for 2-on-2, just because we have never done it before. My only request is that each team share the same color scheme. If there's no way we can make a balanced 2-on-2 rule book by 1 month before RR3/BYOB2, let's just go for what we've voted on.
My initial suggestion is to use non-repeating parts for both designs with basic PACT rules as a framework (no TP, HP in hangers, etc...) which will result in many AC variations. With that basic rule, I'd like to add something up to your interpretation. Both your ACs should have a unique quirk or theme between them, which I interpret as having a special attack or a common theme like dual OB rushing or EO spamming, or missile raining your opponents. I leave it to you guys on how to interpret this, but the latter one is not a rule set in stone. It is more a suggestion on how we make this PACT event more unique.
Balancing teams though, is a totally different matter, which I will need the help you guys in deciding. I think I'm getting ahead of myself though, I'd like to know if there are enough paired participants in RR, at least enough to fill an 8 team bracket for a balanced double elimination tournament. That's 16 people already, and we rarely get that amount of participants.
