The Kaizo Cup - Summer 2022!
⛔ SIGN-UPS ARE CLOSED AS OF SATURDAY 14TH MAY, 06:54AM UK ⛔
The hacks featured in this kaizo cup will be quickie world 1, orcus and autumn!
Everyone who signs up will be put on a wheel, which we will use to assign everyone to a team of 3.
Teams will be decided next week, Sunday 15th May!
Teams will have to decide between themselves who will run which hack. Each team member will only play one of the three hacks.
Each team will also need to come up with a team name, so you will have to communicate with your team! It might be a good idea to use discord, but you can do what works for your team.
Please be a team player! If you sign up to this competition and drop out last minute, it might not be possible for your team to replace you. Life happens, we all know this, and we will do anything we can to make it work.
Any decisions made to postpone any runs or give any form of an extension of time in any way, or adjustments to the rules to offset such misfortunes, will be at the discretion of your hosts.
It would be great if the runs could be live, but as it is extremely unlikely that everyone will be available at the time, we will be taking recorded runs before the date of the competition, recorded unpublished until the time of the run being shown in the competition.
This means the competition runs will not be live streamed publicly before the competition. Commentary and awarded points will be live.
The following is a breakdown of the points available for each team.
Each hack has 5 challenges, worth a varying amount of points if completed during the submitted competitive run.
The challenges are worth 750 points in total, 250 points per hack.
The runs will be shown side by side, two runs at a time, head to head style. The fastest of each of these head to heads will earn their team another 250 points per hack. That's another 750 points available per team, if a team wins all three head to heads. These match ups will be completely random.
There are also some bonus points available, if a runner successfully yumps off a p-switch and gets the midway/goal on that run, that's a further 10 points. Every yump in a switch palace is also 10 points. Every skipped midway will also earn an extra 10 points!
There will also be a further 100 points available for each hack for beating the par time.
Seto Kaizo will set a par time for quickie 1, kamikaizo will set a par time for orcus, and The 8th Bit will set a par time for autumn on the day the teams are decided (15th May). Do you have what it takes to beat the hosts for 100 points?!
