[Wave⁂]

'Tis the season.

General Rules:

1. I am always correct.
2. If I am not correct, please refer to Rule 1.
3. Yes, there are prizes. No, there is no entrance fee. Donations are welcome.
4. Just kidding, there is an entrance fee. The fee is your word that you will attempt to your best ability to complete your matches by the deadline.
5. All matches must be played on Pokémon Online.
6. Save your logs.
7. In Pokémon Online, there is an option to always save battle logs. Do it.
8. Each round will last approximately one week.
9. The tournament is double elimination.
10. All matches are best two out of three, with the sole exception of the finals, which will be best three out of five.
11. Feel free to use as many teams as you wish, as long as all teams operate within the boundaries stated in the rules. This rule does not require usage of multiple teams.
12. After finishing a match, post in this thread the result. For example, if player A beat player B in the first battle and lost in the second and third battles, this is what is expected to be posted - A: "Lost, 1-2" - B: "Won, 2-1"

I have like 30 alts and I can't remember the passwords to any of them. Does this even matter anyway? Shoddy doesn't have Gen V.

The first one is your Smashboards username, TRG.

^After I saw you post your name 3 times my mind just instantly went "Okay just post my online battle simulator name 3 times."

Money question:

WiFi or Dream World?

Dream World. It's the 3rd part in team rules.

I believe I have my PO and Shoddy names right, it's either Chibo or ChiboSempai for both.

Any approx start date for this so I can have a team ready? Why even mention Shoddy if it can't do gen 5?

Whoa if I win this I get to keep an extra set of badges!

Too bad I'm horrible at Gen 5 hehe

Great idea as a prize though!

Protesting bracket because this is like the 1304980394683958643th time that I've had to play SilentVerse.

XD

brb, hunting every other tournament that we've had to play first round

actually nvm we only played first round in the uu tournament, but it seems like i've played him a lot more than that...

 

[Wave⁂]

No johns, less QQ, more pew pew, u mad, butthurt, etc

PEW PEW PEW

Lets try to get this out of the way this Sunday, Articanus.

I'm flattered, but I'm not Articanus.

And I might be busy Sunday, so I'll have to get back to you on that when I know more. I should know by about 6pm EST tomorrow, so look out for that if you can.

 

[The Real Gamer]

Wait a second this is bothering me now... Not Wave... Not Circa... Not Gates...

AHHHH I'm thinking of ss my bad.

EDIT: okay sounds good

 

[Luxor]

I should play Gen V... do the Pokemon boards have an IRC or some kind of chat?

 

[Wave⁂]

No, though we have a Pokémon Online server, currently down for development.

 

[CT Chia]

This is a normal bracket right, so winner of my match plays the winner of Tery and Moozle?

Also, it says in the OP rounds last around a week. Do you think this round could end either Thursday or Friday instead of Wednesday? I don't mind about later rounds, but I was hoping to have a little more practice time for my new team.

Is it single or double elim?

 

[Wave⁂]

Matches will be randomized every round.

I suppose I can make this round longer and later rounds shorter, with fewer people.
New deadline: 12:00 Midnight GMT-5, Thursday, December 8.

Double elimination.

 

[CT Chia]

why wouldnt u just make a standard bracket then so you also have appropriate double elimination seeding? i can use tio to make a bracket for you in seconds
randomized matchups really mess up the concept of seeding for a tournament

 

[Wave⁂]

I think it was originally done this way to dissuade people from scouting. But that's never been a big issue, I guess.

 

[CT Chia]

people have the ability to change their teams anyway, and disable watchers iirc in battles
thats not a problem

 

[Terywj [태리]]

Refer to rule #1, Chibo.

Anyway, Moozle, do you think we could get our match out of the way today?

 

[Moozle]

I'm trying to download PO on this computer since my pokemon computer got virus *****. I also have to remake some teams since I lost them all. I'll try to get it done soon.

I'll be on the PokeCenter Skype chat so just lemme know.

 

[Wrath`]

Ulti and I have everything Ironed out, we should have our match done sometime tomorrow.

 

[kirbyraeg]

Silentverse let's play on wednesday, my last final is Wednesday morning. I don't want to make a team/battle during finals week. xD

 

[Fuelbi]

lost 2/3... as usual :/
