For all tournament holders in line (all after IceArrow's) keep in mind the inconsistency of our players when hosting tournaments, so having something where all participants need to have been active (can be restricted to just PokeCenter) for over a week before allowing them to participate.

Thank you,

Also, what's happened to the weekend tourneys? I'll be happy to host them if you guys don't have anyone to host them

Just a thought but what do you guys think of an OU B/W metagame tourney? A tournament with the new metagame after it has been out for a week or two.

I think it would be pretty fun and could have the potential to have a lot of participants, but that's just an idea.

You'd have to develop the border between "the potential to have a lot of participants" and "the potential to have a lot of participants who then don't show up for the tournament".

we'd need to have B/W in shoddy too because smashers are too lazy to transition to PO.

Honestly the lack of participants in these recent tournaments, as well as the fact that the BOTW thread is no more, is because everyone is pretty much tired of the DPP metagame. We're ready for something new.

When the new metagame comes out the amount of activity in the Battle Tower will substantially increase. Plus this would be a bigger event than the average tourney... Our very first B/W tourney. So if the host advertised it enough, I'm sure it could potentially become an event nobody would want to miss. Sorta how BOTW was when it first started.

I actually really like the D/P metagame(s) but I agree that people might be getting bored of them.

That being said, what would the rules for the B/W tourney even be?

Alright, so I'm bumping this to get stuff across.

- With the delay of Generation V, you can choose to drop your tournament off the hosting list.
- Since Generation V hit, tiers have obviously been overhauled. That said, future listed hosters can choose to again, either remove the tournament all-together until a later time or keep it as such. You could also make it a Generation IV tournament but I don't really know about that.
- Challenge Cup / other specified tournaments (like non-Ubers, mono-Gen., etc.) are not affected by the absence of tier lists so those may be performed at whatever Generation the hoster wishes.

I'll also update this into the OP if anyone cares.

Thanks.

I'm gonna go ahead and desticky this in favor of some of new "hot topic" threads for the current metagame.
If this picks up in activity at all, and we have use for it in the future, I'll resticky it.

I was going to do a Gen V Ubers Cup starting sometime in the middle of December, but I don't want it to get in the way of NattoRoast. I'll wait until that's in a few rounds and 90% of the players have flaked out.

I don't think people will flake because this is the very first Gen V anything that's official that we've done.

Oh, the suspense.

I can't wait to see who will actually be right. It really could go either way. /more non-sarcasm

Well then I'll take the middle ground and say about 40-50% will flake out.

Does anyone want 25 and 75?

I need a list of people who flaked out in NattoRoast 1.

I mean, you know, before it got reset.

If by flaked out, you mean that they didn't complete their matches - ChiboSempai, IceArrow, Angel something whatever, and Zef.

What's the name of your tournament again so I can add it to the cue.

SWF Ubers Cup 2

And I mean the people who didn't show up for their matches and didn't give any notification for why they didn't.
