A New Era for Speedrun Tournaments: Introduction to the Fallout Formula
Original Air Date: March 027 of 2022.
The traditional Speedrun Tournament, and the way we view other events of this caliber, is about to change: With traditional Regional Brackets, Round Robin, and Double Elimination having been brought to a position of Stagnation, the time has come to enter a new era, one where Speed and Skill alone will not be enough to guarantee one's safety and survival.
Introducing the Fallout Formula, a new template for competitive events of plentiful forms developed by Roya Rockwood throughout the course of the Summer of 2020 to March of 2022; the Fallout Formula will serve as one of the most strict and difficult formulas to see use in any Tournament, as it enforces its contestants to present Consistency of their talent in order to survive, rather than simply being the fastest or most knowledgeable of the game in their contest.
For a full insight into how this formula functions, Roya has developed this Feature Length program to help better inform viewers, runners, panelists, hosts, and commentators on what would be expected of them in an event with it in use, presenting the Rulebook Manual in its entirety alongside Five Example Runs showing the formula in action; the ruleset has been dissected at all possible ends and corners throughout its development to guarantee that there is both a firm understanding of how play functions and also so that there are no loopholes to be exploited; if there are any, one can expect the formula will be immediately updated to accommodate for them, as deemed necessary.
