Hat League

Subpages: /League Standings - /MessageFormat

The premise of a hat league is that teams are picked at random by drawing names from a hat. In this league, teams consist of teams of two robots each written by a different author. In short, each teammate does not know with whom they will be paired. Once paired, each team will fight a survivalist battle with each other team within their bracket.

  • Each bracket will consist of up to 8 participants, which are then made into 4 teams.
  • Each team will fight one 35 round battle against each other team, with survival determining the win.
  • This amounts to 3 battles per team, for a total of 6 battles per bracket.
  • Both participants in the winning team will go up to the next bracket (if any).
  • Both participants in the losing team will go down to the next bracket (if any).
  • If a bracket has an odd number of participants, one participant will be paired twice.
