I think something like a tournament has been suggested before, but this ones probably different.

SO, there would be something like 3 leagues of the tournament;
rank 1-3 Skull tournament
rank 4-8 Veteran tournament
rank 9-14 Beginner's tournament

A tournament would happen every month maybe, and would last about a week.

Each tournament would probably be a battle of 30-60 mechs.

SO here's how it'd work, you pay to enter, battle some mechs, if you lose you're OUT! Grab some kits, because if you win the tourny or get close, you're getting some fine prizes! You can enter the tournament only 3 times when it starts, so if you die three times, you have to wait until next time!
