My suggestions:
1v1 is possible with standardized balanced units. We'll in effect be playing something like SF or Tekken, but with mechs. 1v1 free for all will not be balanced, because of the defense ratings. Invariably, someone will get lucky with his weapon/armor combo and this will be a significant, perhaps insurmountable advantage.
2v2 with set ACs (kept secret until tournament time) is fine too, and won't take as much work as my suggested 1v1 format. Teams will have to adjust to the competition in general terms, to make a team that can take on anything
3v3 and up... we don't have enough active members with ACV unless we include the ones currently not in the Philippines.
