Pink Reaper's Crew Tourney In a world where Sharks can fly we're all ****ed

[The Halloween Captain]

how. please explain

Aparently, clefs are the new FEAR.

Fear the cleffa!

 

[SkylerOcon]

I will enter this.

 

[0RLY]

This was going to be a one word post, but I promised to behave.

/hype


If I battle a team with cleffa, clefairy, and clefable, I will crap an internet.

 

[Pink Reaper]

Use a mono-ghost team XD

Oh yeah...

Endeavor doesn't work on ghosts, does it?

 

[Zook]

I'm totally using Swinub again. Be ready, *****es.

 

[drcossack]

Swinub? *surrenders immediately*

 

[The Halloween Captain]

I'm totally using Swinub again. Be ready, *****es.

Better use it first.

I'd say more than half the battles I've played on Shoddy recently feature stealth rocks, spikes, or toxic spikes.

Incidently, how do you use a swinub? Do you give it a focus sash and start with endeavor, endure into a salac berry, or something else entirely?

Let me first say the the Endevor/QA combo isn't cool anymore.

What I do is run a Swinub with Protect/Endure/Toxic/Ice Shard and holding Lum Berry or Focus Sash. It's a garunteed kill on a last Pokemon that isn't Poison, Steel, or has Immunity.

Lum is for Toxic Spikes, FSash lets him take a hit.

Explain how you get the toxic in.

Also, why protect and enure, both?

Protect and endure don't generally work together because they use the same move counter. The odds of protect failing after endure is the same as the odds of protect failing after protect.

But what really owns is Ludicolo. Rain dish + leftovers + leach seed + substitute and protect = really, really good staller.

 

[M.K]

Oh....Zook and I have teamed up. We need more members, contact either of us if you are interested.

Spoiler

Preferably Zook, I've contracted Swinub Flu and will be bed-ridden all weekend. Thanks, Zook. =P

 

[Grunt]

Zook pick me!
:D

 

[zrky]

NO, ****it what is wrong with you!

can I be with you guys?

 

[Vlade]

When is this going to start?

 

[Zook]

Grunt and Zrky are cool with me.

 

[Bowser King]

Shouldn't we have a list of crews somewhere?

I need a crew again due to time problems.

Man this is an intense situation.

-Bowser King

 

[Hobobloke]

Yeah maybe you should start putting the crews up so we can see who's been drafted. My crew needs one more member due to BK pulling out.

 

[Zook]

Explain how you get the toxic in.

With a Focus Sash.

Also, why protect and enure, both?

Protect and endure don't generally work together because they use the same move counter. The odds of protect failing after endure is the same as the odds of protect failing after protect.

No, they don't. I've stalled for 20 turns without any failing on Shoddy.

 

[Wrath`]

I am going to be on the leftover crew, all the peeps not pick, and then we win.

 

[Pink Reaper]

With a Focus Sash.



No, they don't. I've stalled for 20 turns without any failing on Shoddy.

From smogon:

Protects the user from most moves during the turn. If the user successfully used Detect, Endure, or Protect on the previous turn, Protect only has a 50% chance to work successfully. If the Protect user moves last in a turn, Protect fails.

Detect, Endure and Protect are all on the same counter, if you use one, it lowers the chance to work for all of them.



Also, the tourney will start soon, we just need one more player to even out the crews. Once that's done, I'll have DruggedFox announce his crew and from there start posting who's already crewed with whom. After that, anyone who's not already on a crew will either be placed on crews that don't have the necessary 5 players or on their own separate crews.

So basically, if you have a crew started but not the full 5 players, be expecting a random player.

 

[Vulcan55]

Grunt tells me I want to join.

 

[NJzFinest]

So, my friend is an idiot and he still hasn't posted lol. Is 40 the cap?

 

[Zook]

Really? Either I'm a lucky *******, or Shoddy overlooks this.

 

[Kyu Puff]

I'll play people on Shoddy so they can get a sense of how good I am. Look for Kyu (feel free to challenge).

 

[Pink Reaper]

40's the cap cus it gives us a nice round 8 crews with 5 players per crew.

 

[SpelignFial]

before we finalize the cap shouldn't we check all the players that are left over and not in a crew and see if they are really going to stay through the tourney or if the are even viewing this thread on a regular basis?

This is a good idea.

 

[Circa]

Here and accounted for! I check just about every time I notice that someone posts. ^.^ I just don't say anything because I don't really have anything to say. I pretty much already know I'm going to be randomly placed with other people for a crew (and don't really mind), so I really see no point in stating an offer of any sort.

 

[M.K]

Yeah, I check daily, but that's pretty much a given.
I'm very worried about inactive people.

 

[SpelignFial]

This is just a random question but also what if the person gets banned for like a week from smash boards but is still active does he have to some how get his match set up and done with out using SWF or is he booted from the tourney.

YAY POST 100 !!!1!1!1!1!one!!!!111

 

[_umbra_]

I still check the thread all the time

 

[Pink Reaper]

I don't doubt any of the current players activity, I constantly check to see who's online/when they've last been online, etc to make sure no one just signed up then dropped off the map.

 

[Grunt]

Like me. I'm leaving you.


































Jk

 

[ss118]

D-fox is busy with AP exams and **** but he will participate when(if) necessary

 

[NJzFinest]

40's the cap cus it gives us a nice round 8 crews with 5 players per crew.

k, I'll just look for 2 people who are already in the 40 that need a crew.

 

[peregrine monkey]

I'll be on whatever crew will have me.

Sucks to be that person.

 

[karthik_king]

aww i want to join

 

[0RLY]

Hey reaps, can you post the current crews on the front page? That way, people know what they're getting themselves into. [name pending] The only people I know who are organized into a group so far is Zook, Grunt, and Zrky. I think. I'll join you guys if you don't mind

MK is with zook, grunt and I, if they are 5-person crews then I wouldn't be opposed
