I don't have a format for Strikeman
*badoop* A notification pops up on every user on the cybernet's screen. While 99.99% of users immediately clicked the [X] to remove such a nuisance the few % that don't are greeted with a message from one of the greatest beings to ever grace net society. It reads as follows:
From: Strikeman, yes THE Strikeman (Yes it's written like that)
To: Literally everyone
Subject: The chance of a lifetime!
Body: Hey, you! Yeah you! It's ME! Strikeman. Pitchin another curveball your way and hoping for a homerun swing from the masses! Listen up 'cause my man Ghallager and I have decided it's time to revamp the line up of our exotic bats and in doing so have made space for a brand new brand!
Yes that's right navi enthusiasts. The game this time involves that rarity of rarities. The power of powerful powers! The most elusive slot on a navi's loadout and the cause of much salty ire from those in the dugout without one. I'm sending out a call for all you modders out there to don your jersey, create a bat, and swing for the fences! Because we're playin with Gigas baby! Read the attachment below for more!
Strike out!

The Basics
The rules are simple. Create a giga program. It could be based on anything but remember giga programs are incredibly powerful, rare, and often character defining once obtained. To get started here are some vague simple suggestions to put you on the right path:
* A couple certain combat styles that aren't represented.
* A few giga programs exist currently but that could be improved upon.
Anything goes but remember this is a giga program, not a thesis about why robots are going to take away a large number of jobs in the next 10 years. Keep it short, sweet, and simple. Additionally don't just create a giga program you'd prefer your own navi to have. Try to think bigger.
After creating your entry write a short paragraph or so explaining its overall purpose and why you added what you did. While not necessary for the entry feel free to express any other details about it you'd like.(but again, this isn't a thesis)
Submit your entry to me(Shast, PM on site). 1 entrant per person(account).
Entrants will be judged based on the giga program submitted as well as their accompanying paragraph. The window for submissions will be 2 week from now(Jan 4), with an additional 1 week for judging(potentially 3 weeks depending on submissions)
Prizes are as follows:
Grand prize: Giga Mystery Data
Runner up: 2 HMD/CMD's
Everyone else: 1 HMD/CMD
Additional rules and notes
Entrants will be judged by a selection of staff. When the winner is announced the other submissions will be available for viewing on the same post for fun and salt.
As some staff are not involved in the judging process, they will be free to participate if they want. The panel of judges are: Shast, Genesis, Warrior, and Gaia.
While you aren't required to not discuss your submission I personally think it's fun to keep it quiet since they will all be revealed at the end anyway.
