Ever thought you were lucky?
Ever had a long streak you wanted to continue and shove in random strangers' faces?
Ever wanted to annihilate someone in RPS and force them to retreat into their shell in shame? Probably just me, but still.
Hello again. Welcome to MG's Rock Paper Scissors-101 Tourney: The Sequel *yawns*. Many will fight, some to the death and others to shame(mostly to death, though), but in the end only one shall remain! Who will rise above hate, defeat the masses, slay the dragons? Only time and a terribly complex chart will tell!

How This Works:
In this game, players will be pitted against each other in the classic game of pure luck: Rock Paper Scissors. Three's really boring, though, and a bit too much luck for me. So we have one hundred and one actions, which makes it more fun and much more complicated. There's a file below listing all of them, so have fun.



The Format
Each round of play, every player will be paired with another for a single game of Rock Paper Scissors. The winning player in each battle will progress to the next round, while the loser will fall into the loser's bracket. All the losers in the current round will square off with each other, and as the rounds progress, each loser from the winner's bracket will face off against a winner from the loser's bracket as necessary.
This process repeats until only two players remain: one from the main bracket and one from the secondary. Three games will be played at maximum: the winner of the loser's bracket must defeat the winner of the first twice in order to win.

In the case that I do not have a player number that is a power of two, seeding will be determined by previous placing in any RPS tournaments, then in order of signups.

If you lose any RPS round in the secondary bracket, you are out of the game.
NOTE: I am amending this rule very slightly. We will have placing matches to determine exact placings(obviously, right?), to make seedings more accurate in the future. These will not be in the bracket, but will be (hopefully) a better way to gauge one's level of luck.

Replacements
In the event that people do not submit their actions, I'll accept replacements.
Replacements should send in one action every round, even when they are not in a bracket and paired against a player. If any player does not submit an action, the first user in the replacement list will take their place and their action will be compared to their new opponent, and it will continue as normal.

Discussion and Deadlines
Discussion of events, plans and actions may be held in thread, and are encouraged! However, please don't communicate about the game outside this thread. It won't be punished, because I can't see a benefit in your doing so, but I'd like to be able to see what is going on, because I need to/want to? idk though.

On the declaration of a round, players will have 72 hours to submit one of the 101 actions listed previously. Failure to do so will result in immediate replacement, and your opponent will fight the new player as outlined above. If both players do not submit, both will be replaced and the replacements will fight each other.

However, if there are no replacements available for whatever reason, failure to submit will give you an automatic loss and your opponent will move on to the next round. If both players fail to submit in this situation, both will be eliminated and a new bot will be created and will claim the win for that battle. In this scenario, neither player progresses to the loser's bracket, and the winner of that bracket will get a free pass to the next round of that bracket.

After this 72 hour period, I will post that I am determining winners. This can take varying amounts of time dependent on many, many things. If I don't say something 24 hours after deadline, or if I'm taking more than 24 hours to calculate, feel free to shoot me a PM/message on Skype to remind me.

End of the Game
When the dust settles after the tournament, the winner shalt be crowned the McLeodGaming Forums Rock-Paper-Scissors-101 Champion of Mid-2014. Or rather, MLGFRPS101CM2014

Registration is now open, and will stay open until I reach 16 people, or until I'm just plain-out lazy and decide to cut it.

oh put me in coach I'm ready

I'll join

I'm in senpai

I'll join

YES!

Adding kyuubit, TAC, Shaske, Auraka and Kirby to the OP. Will try to figure out seeding ASAP.

Also, I won't bite, don't worry, so any and all who want to join should.

Oh hey, there's a round 2, I'm in.

Count me in.

Adding Tyler and Titan to the OP.

I'll try to see whether I can get some of the previous participants in: if not, I'll ask around somewhere...

I'll do this again.

Sure, I'll join. I could use some revenge.

Adding Densetsu and Lucina to the OP.

Will wait a day-ish: if more people don't come in, we'll start with nine.

I'm still insisting I got dead last last RPS101.
