Greetings, Machinists.

The Machine liaising team had received various requests of hosting a tournament or competition for some time, so we will be hosting a competition to our operatives of the Machine organization.

Operatives who have registered on the Recursion Machinist Uplink have had the opportunity to give their input and suggestions into how this competition was to be constructed for several weeks, now.* We have taken their suggestions and complaints into consideration when creating the structure of this tournament, and hope it satisfies our contestants. The tournament structure and guidelines can be found below, as well as potential prizes to be won.

The competition will be utilizing a point system, which will be introduced to this thread sometime within the next week. It has not been finalized, but we felt we should give operatives the most possible amount of time to sign up and prepare. Good luck, and we will be watching this topic to answer any questions or concerns that may arise.

May the best contestant acquire an FM-1500.

Efficiently,
Your liaisons.
