I'd still be fine with multiple arenas, but it'd have to be something like one arena for the LWs, one for the MWs, etc, as opposed to a rotational system.

You know I'm always willing to loan out my goofy arena designs if needed, Kody. That said, I'm pretty sure the rings I made for the VGP are rather more "out there" than you're hoping. :P

I do quite like the idea of a tournament with more than one main arena, though. It makes it stand out a bit from the other leagues and could encourage bots to be more adaptable to different environments.

Wow, discussion for the next Ruination started pretty quickly. I like the idea of the multiple Arenas myself, and I'd be happy to submit a few potential ideas. And just to reassure you, no they don't all have Pits ( :P )- are low Arena Walls and OOTA Zones allowed, though?


EDIT: I will say though, I do agree on not taking ideas from LORE. Trying not to sound like too much of a douchebag by saying it, but I think entering LORE was probably the biggest mistake I've made on here.

ok fine alex, i won't try to redeem myself by starting a second one then. Clearly if you all hated it so much there's no reason for me to try again is there?

Oh I forgot it's apparently my fault that the people I had on writing staff knocked you out before the playoffs. You don't see me being mad at Kody for getting knocked out of Ruination 2 early do you?
