Hail all,

It would seem that while the Regular season for MMR is concluding soon, our combatants have turned to other ways of competition to keep their circuits running and blood boiling! To aid in this endeavor, I announce the next season of MMR: Lots of Bots for Stocks! (LBS)

Through this season, all registered combatants may engage each other in sanctioned battlebot fights! There are no restrictions on modifications to your bots, but each combatant may register up to 5 battlebots to use in rotation for a set of fights.

Here is the breakdown:
- Each contestant can have a team of 5 battlebots.
- Each contestant can challenge other contestants to a first-to-three knockout match
- The first contestant to knockout three of his opponent's bots wins the match
- If your bot wins a round, it cannot be rotated out and must stay on for the next round.
- If you bot lost a round, you may choose any one of your five bots registered to fight the next round, including the one that just lost.

Points will be scored as follows:
1 point for each bot knocked out
1 extra point for each consecutive fight round won
For example, in a match of :
Team 1) Amber Bally Clyde Dedog Evil
vs
Team 2) Foxy Gorgeous Hail Idle Joker

Example 1)
Round 1: Amber vs Gorgeous, Amber win - Team 1 scores 1 point
Round 2: Amber vs Hail, Amber win - Team 1 scores 2 points (1 for win, 1 for Amber winning on)
Round 3: Amber vs Gorgeous, Gorgeous win - Team 2 scores 1 point
Round 4: Evil vs Gorgeous, Gorgeous win - Team 1 scores 1 point
Final score: Team 1 4 points, Team 2 1 point; Team 1 wins!

Each contestant will need to line up fights with other contestants registered through the season and the ones with the most points at the end of the season will win prizes!

Prizes:
Rank 1: 50 Credits
Rank 2: 25 Credits
Rank 3: 10 Credits
MVP Bot with most points: 250,000 marks

Please let me know if you have any questions on the above, and we look forward to your bots battling it out for ROCKS AND STOCKS!

In honor,
Xuthori
