    Board Game Smogon Chess Tournament - Won by Ashwins72 and Royal1604

    Going to have to call activity (unless we manage to schedule something on Christmas but that seems unlikely for obvious reasons). Opp missed the scheduled time, do kind of feel bad because I expected to lose this round but eh, that's life.

    3+5 is blitz not bullet and average game lengths are still going to be 5 1/2 minutes (30 moves) to 7 minutes (60 moves) per side. It is also pretty hard to flag when you have a 5 second increment unless your position is just so bad you cant see a move, at which point the clock isn't really...

    A little curious how the format will be run. Say there are 50 people in each bracket, if the tourney is a swiss style tour and each round is 1 week long, shouldnt that be a 50 week tourney?

    Ngl kinda curious of what yall's definition of "experienced" is. Because I feel like I'm about to get paired with someone who is like "yes I have two IM norms but i still dont really understand all the nuances of king and pawn endgames so I'm bad lol"

    Because RNG is the absolute worst and because gale wings and a higher confusion chance (in gen 7) along with paralyze just seems unnecessarily irritating to allow

    I'd like to point out that Chansey is in C tier (edit: nevermind I just realized that's FC chans that seems reasonable) and also nominate arceus electric to at least C tier, maybe B- due to efficacy with a wide variety of sets like regen/electric terrain/poison heal which mostly seem pretty...

    Today I want to read a few excerpts from a very offensive post that struck me to my core. First off, lots of people have a certain propensity and proclivity towards impulsively banning smash but I am gratified that potentially permanent meta changes aren't allowed to be determined by...

    I’ve played mons for years and the whole time my favorite move has been smash. There have been dark times in my life, but being able to go play pokemans with my 6 shell smash mons has always got me through it. I am so happy for the chance to defend this move, think about it, there is no way that...

    This is true, but it puts the burden far too heavily on users. Part of democracy is figuring out what a community wants and then making it as easy as possible to allow them to express their opinions. Because pet mods start with 0 users it takes far far more work to build up a userbase than it...

    I feel like you didn't really listen to what I was saying in my post. I wasn't asking for a NatDex mod. I was asking for a serious attempt by the council to figure out what people actually want. My personal opinion was that NatDex was a good idea, but as i stated in my post, all the power is in...

    I'm going to try keep this as short as possible Problems with Gen 7- some balancing problems Problems with Gen 8- it's bad Let me elaborate. In gen 8 the main problem is you take away 75% of the mons and you are left with a pool of maybe 20 mons that actually are viable. That's awful. Getting...

    GL Volkner I think intrepid sword is worse almost entirely because it’s harder to Imposterproof because Imposter gains +2 attack when switched in and isn’t locked. Otherwise they’re almost exactly the same with haze users usually dying on the switch and unaware users being bad as usual.

    https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen8balancedhackmons-1015139775 Why is it that someone who can copy a mon 6 times can beat someone who has an actual team? Pretty much sums up how awful gen 8 is. Can we at least consider banning forms of setup. Like I mean last gen we decided to go after...

    I would say that in its current state the meta is nearly unplayable. BH has a history of having really long suspects but I think it's at the point where so much stuff needs to get fixed that we should look at the option of quick banning several things so the meta can actually be somewhat...

    Sleep still exists without a clause on the ladder and that needs to go ASAP. I think v-create is actually a huge problem since it hits almost all mons above 600 BST SE and close to one shots everything else. If I really wanted to I could probably make a sun team around gorrila tactics vcreate...
