The Experiment OCT

Summary
The Experiment OCT was made by Guzu in late 2012 and opened auditions in early 2013 and concluded in late 2014 with a roster of about 16 contestants and lasting 5 rounds. The tournament held a losers bracket for anyone that lost the first round to allow them to continue in the tournament with the possibility of returning to the winner bracket.

Premise
A secret society of inter-dimensional scientists organizes an experiment to test and learn more from subjects they’ve found from different worlds. Ahead of this project is the brilliant, yet hot headed, Iris. Iris constructs a tournament that will pit all test subjects against each other, proposing that this is the most effective way to study them. Iris travels the different dimensions to recruit the subjects of question under the guise that they will receive a free “wish” if they were to win this tournament.

Impact

Flash was a frequently used tool to help announce information to the contestants.
