Okay guys and gals, here's the game plan.
Obviously the number of new signups has slowed down quite a bit. With that in mind, I'm going to do the following. If we don't get a new signup within 48 hours of this post, I'm going to close signups. Similarly, if we get a signup (or multiple signups), and 48 hours passes after said signup without a new signup, I will close signups. This will continue either until the above happens, until we hit 12 teams, or until 12:01 AM (GMT -4) on Monday, July 25th 2016. Regardless of what happens, when signups end we will hold a lottery to determine the pick order within 24 hours, and then the draft will be held on discord within a few days. The first two rounds of the draft will be open to public viewing, but the third and fourth rounds will be private, with team assignments being posted here. Okay, 48 hours starts now! |

Reading is your friend. Since, unlike TKF, your signup does not make 5 which, of course, would guarantee a spot, please resubmit with the above FORM. Until that time: rejected Current end time is still 48 hours after Sneaze's post. |

Okay everyone, there you have it! Signups are officially closed! Luka, Sneaze & DT, unfortunately we don't have enough people to add a 9th team, but the three of you, along with anyone else who wants to join as a sub, will more than likely end up on a team at some point - we'll get into how subs are used once the teams are selected.
Now then, we'll be doing the draft pick lottery (think like the NBA Lottery, Americans) tomorrow, Thursday the 21st, at 1PM GMT -4. This will be fairly quick and will pretty much consist of me making a show of the picking order, so it's not really necessary for anyone to be there to see it, but if you want to come watch, it'll be held in the TCC Discord server that will be linked in the OP, or in Apollo's post a few days ago. Following this, at 1PM GMT -4 on Friday the 22nd, we will hold a live draft on the server. The first two rounds of the draft will be open to the public eye, but we'll be closing the draft to the public for rounds 3 and 4 to avoid any hard feelings. After the draft, captains will have 24 hours to submit a rolling lineup for weeks 1-5 to me. Week 1 will begin at 12:01AM GMT -4 on Sunday the 24th unless all 8 captains get their lineups to me on Friday, in which case the first week will be posted at some point on Saturday the 23rd. The weeks will, of course, last a full week unless all matches are completed early (this has never happened in 21 weeks worth of running this tournament, but it's worth mentioning.) Let's go! |

And now we have our draft order! For those that came out to watch, thanks for your time. For those that were busy, the draft order is below! 1: Accumula Wisps 2: Celestic Archfiends 3: Mahogany Marauders 4: Floaroma Honeybees 5: Pallet Pipsqueaks 6: Lilycove Jetstream 7: Canalave Nightstalkers 8: Cianwood Brawlers The draft will be held on our discord server at 1:00 GMT -4 tomorrow, Friday the 22nd. We will utilize a standard snake draft. this means that, in the first round of picks, team 1 will pick first, and team 8 will pick last. then, in the second round, the order will be reversed. This will continue until all the participants have been chosen. Each Captain will have 3 minutes to make a pick (they will be pinged at the 1 and 2 minute marks) before a player is selected for them, at random, and the pick goes to the next captain in line. All captains agreed to the 1:00 start time in advance, so hopefully this won't be an issue. The first two rounds of the draft will be open to public viewing. The second and third rounds will be closed to the public eye to avoid any hard feelings. Come the end of the draft, captains will have 24 hours to submit a lineup for weeks 1-5. For Clarity, we are utilizing rotating lineups to ensure that everyone has a chance to participate. If I do not have a lineup from you by then, your lineup will be randomized. I will not accept lineups via any form other than a private message. To clarify, you submit 1 lineup, and it rotates through over the course of 5 weeks. in the first week, spots 1 2 and 3 start. in week 2, spots 2 3 & 4, then 3 4 & 5, then 4 5 & 1, then 5 1 & 2. Below you will find the list of participants available to draft. You have just under 24 hours to plan your picks. Good luck! Next up, the draft! |

Thanks to everyone who came out for the draft! It went very quickly, wrapping up in under an hour. The results for the first two rounds can be seen on the first page. Now we move on to the actual tournament, starting with a nice big post!
Table of Contents: 1: Rules 2: Submitting Battles 3: In-Team Substitutions 4: Off-Team Substitutions 5: Substitute List: 6: Rosters 7: Schedule RULES: 1: Matches are XY Randbats. All Smogon rules apply. No exceptions. 2: All battles are to be done via PS. 3: Individual matches are Best Of 3. Not Best Of 1. Not Best Of 5. Best Of 3. 4: Do not troll or flame. If you do so, I have absolutely no qualms about kicking you out of the tournament and bringing in a substitute. 5: If you are going to be inactive for a portion of a week when you are supposed to be battling, it is your responsibility to send both your captain and me a PRIVATE MESSAGE stating so. 6: You are expected to contact your opponent via vm or pm. Do not wait on Discord waiting for an opponent to show up. Time zone differences are not an excuse. Set up a time to battle. SUBMITTING BATTLES: In the interest of keeping things orderly, I need you all to use very simple forms when submitting battles. They are found below. Code:
My Team: Opponent's UPN Username: Opponent's Team: Battle 1 ( w/l/d; score): Battle 2 ( w/l/d; score): Battle 3 ( w/l/d; score): In-Team Substitutions: An In-Team Substitution may only be made if: a) The player in question has been inactive on UPN for 4 consecutive days AND has not informed me that they would be missing for that time. b) The player in question has sent their captain and me a PRIVATE MESSAGE stating that they will be unable to battle during the week in question. A screenshot of the PM must be provided. c) The player in question has been active on UPN, but has made no effort to contact their opponent for 5 days. Off-Team Substitutions: An Off-Team Substitution may only be made if: a) The player in question has been inactive on UPN for 11 consecutive days and has not informed me that they would be missing for that time. b) The player in question has been subbed out for 2 consecutive weeks. c) The player in question has sent either their captain or me a PRIVATE MESSAGE stating their intent to quit the tournament. A screenshot of the PM must be provided. d) A player has been removed from the tournament due to flaming and/or trolling. An Off-Team Substitution will be performed in the following manner: The substitutes will be broken into groups of 2-4 (depending on the number of subs) by a Random Number Generator. The Team Captain will choose a group WITHOUT knowing who is in said group. They will then have the choice of one of the players in that group. Substitute List: The following is the list of substitutes. If you wish to become a substitute, send me a PM or VM saying so. Lucario188 Sneaze Aposteriori ROSTERS With 8 teams, we will have 2 divisions. At the end of the regular season (the round robin portion) the two teams from each division with the best records will move on to a bracket-style playoff. Below you will find the rosters of each team. Once edited into the OPs, each name will be linked to the profile page of each player The ASB Division: The Accumula Wisps, the Celestic Archfiends, the Mahogany Marauders and the Cianwood Brawlers Spoiler: show The WF Division: The Lilycove Jetstream, The Floaroma Honeybees, the Pallet Pipsqueaks and the Canalave Nightstalkers Spoiler: show Schedule: Below you will find the schedule for the regular season. ---------------------------------- Captains, you have 24 hours to send me your lineups for weeks 1 through 5. As a reminder, we will be utilizing rotating lineups, which means that, whatever lineup you send me, week 1 players 1-3 on the lineup will play. week 2 will be 2-4. Week 3 will see 3-5. Week 4 will include 4-1, and Week 5 will finish with 5-2. If you all get me the lineups early, I'll get the first week up early, but as it stands right now week 1 will start at 12:01 AM GMT -4 on Sunday, July 24th.

Opponent's UPN Username: Connor Opponent's Team: Mahogany Mauraders Battle 1 ( w/l/d; score): w; 1-0 Battle 2 ( w/l/d; score): l; 0-2 Battle 3 ( w/l/d; score): w; 1-0 Both players should either post the form or quote their opponents post in order to confirm. If there is no form, then in my mind, the battle never happened. It's pretty straightforward. |
