So, how is this going to work? I'm not completely sure and we'll have to adapt as we go, keeping the things that work and discarding the things that don't but my basic idea is that there can be two types of battle room threads. The first one will resemble the forum game, 'King of the Hill'.
In this type of sparring match you are allowed to god mod your partner(s). For example: Kaden teleported in behind Tamrin and did *** before she could react. In normal RP this is not allowed but it would be allowed here. That is because the challenge of these types of matches will be to figure out how to undo or out do what your partner did. You can't say it didn't happen, you just have to roll with the punches and adapt. There is no real way to decide who wins matches like these so just play until you get tired of it. The sparring matches can include 2 or more people and you can either be straight out fighting each other or you can be going after an objective, such as capture the hill. Whatever. Use your imagination.
The second type of match would be a mission. Now, I don't know why you would waste a mission idea on non-Canon RP but if you want to this is where you can play it out. The Battle Room is obviously based on the X-men battle room so these types of missions would include, 'first to get ten hidden flags' or 'first to destroy all 5 underwater bases on Ortho.' Again, use your imagination and again, you can have 2 or more players in these missions and just play until you get sick of it.
The only real rules of the Battle Room are that you have to play your characters out with their actual abilities. This means you can't make their power more powerful than it actually is at the time you are playing the thread. And you can't give them skills they don't have. So if you are an Apprentice and you challenge a Master you better be really creative if you want to beat them.
Above all just remember that this is supposed to be fun. Play fair so that everyone enjoys what you're doing. Guess that's it. Battle Room's open.
