Since RoboCup 2021 will be held virtually all around the world, owing to the ongoing COVID-19situation and the Standard Platform League is taking on a new format that is designed to provide all teams an opportunity to competitively measure their skills in robot soccer within the current circumstances without any physical presence on a common competition site.
German Open Replacement Event has been introduced to enable the League for having 5 vs 5 on-site games in local arenas in Central Europe. The team’s robots travel, but the human members stay at home.
Visitors and team members can view the live streams from both arenas on the new RoboCup SPL YouTube channel: here
Live stream takes place during the whole day and all times in UTC+2. You can see teams testing their robots, see how they get setup and also some test games and normal games. If you want to watch the competition games, here is a list when the competition games start.

Participating teams in GORE
The following teams participate in GORE 2021:
The most recent version of the GORE-Rules you can find here: GORE-Rules
For fast communication during this event, the games and for direct communication of the participants with the responsible persons in the hosting arenas we use the vRoHOW Discord. There is already a good infrastructure available, and it will be extended by a separate area for the GORE. The necessary adjustments will be made in the near future. If you haven’t joined, yet you can get an invitation link mailing the organisers.
A NextCloud folder has been created where all important files can be stored as described in the rules. This can be found in the e-mail sent to your team.
As a short info: The game controller has already been updated, thanks to Arne, and will be further adapted. The latest version can be found at the following address: GitHub GameController
As feedback from the preparation meeting and to maximize the number of games for each team and given that only a limited number of games can be played in both arenas we are scheduling the games utilizing a modified version of the Swiss-System Tournament. The aim is that every team plays against opponents of about the same strength and not, as is usually the case, to play out a clear winner.
As bases for the initial placement of the teams, we use the results of the GermanOpen from 2014 till 2019 (only considered the available teams). These scores lead to the first ranking of the teams:
Team | 2019 GO | 2018 GO | 2017 GO | 2016 GO | 2015 GO | 2014 GO | Score |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
B-Human | 1 | 3 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 8 |
HTWK Robots | 2 | 1 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 3 | 12 |
NaoDevils | 4 | 2 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 2 | 17 |
Berlin United | 4 | 5 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 5 | 26 |
HULKs | 3 | 4 | 5 | 5 | 6 | 6 | 29 |
Bembelbots | 6 | 6 | 6 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 33 |
R-ZWEI-KICKERS | 7 | 7 | 7 | 7 | 7 | 7 | 42 |
In total, we are going to play four rounds with each three games and one team get a free card.
Each round the first team gets the free card and is scored with 1 point. The other pairings will be 2 vs 3, 4 vs 5 and 6 vs 7. Two points are awarded for the match winner, one point for a tie and zero points otherwise.
After the initial ranking the following rankings for each round are based on the accumulated points from the matches. For teams with the same score, at the beginning of each round, the direct comparison is used first and otherwise a ranking based on the initial scoring is taken.
Each team can only get the free card once and there are no duplicate matches. Otherwise the ranking is adapted accordingly to the next best candidate.
