How often does the server restart?
Usually it restarts at about 3-5 days of uptime, but there's no set schedule.How often does the server restart?
Heyo, judging by the starting area, there aren't any clauses in effect, and I'd assume that because it's unrated randoms, it doesn't matter as much, as the battles are done as fun, and if the opponent gets a pokemon that drops everything asleep, it doesn't really matter.Hi^^
This is my first post around here, so I guess I should introduce myself. Hi, I'm Lynn, and I have been playing pokemon for about a year on showdown. You might have seen me playing in unmatched randoms.
Speaking of which, the reason I'm here. I was playing a random match, and my foe put 2 of my pokemon to sleep. Since I don't remember any changes to sleep clause, all I can say is pretty much...what?
Here is the link to the match: http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/battle-unratedrandombattle-165142253
So...that's pretty much it. See ya^^
Can we not act like a fool. You have your answer find the right place.Can I have my damn alt back?
Sorry, you can't transfer ladder rankings over to new accounts.Hey. How do you change the name of an account, but still keep the record standings of that account? I'm asking because I've been laddering OU, and I pulled of a w/l ratio of 19:1, so I'd like to give myself credit if I were to advance :P
You can't, you'd have to start from scratch if you change your name.Hey. How do you change the name of an account, but still keep the record standings of that account?

Your IP is probably dynamic and probably hit a range that is banned from PS. Reset your router to get a new IP and you should probably be able to log on. if you honestly aren't using a proxy that is.imo this is the place to post this, but correct me if i'm wrong.

I didn't spam/hack/attack PS or w/e else, and i dunno what a proxy is. I use the wifi at my home, and this has never happened to me before. I was logged in yesterday without anything unusual and did a few battles, but today it shows this. Help me.
There used to be a Custom Game (No Team Preview) option, but it doesn't exist anymore. It's mostly just a game with no rules whatsoever. Of course, if you wanted to truly customize the game, there's always Pet Mods or Other Metagames, which there is a forum for.'Sup peeps.
I was wondering how you can edit the rule of custom games, if at all. In particular, is it possible to remove team preview?
Ah, thanks a lot for the info!There used to be a Custom Game (No Team Preview) option, but it doesn't exist anymore. It's mostly just a game with no rules whatsoever. Of course, if you wanted to truly customize the game, there's always Pet Mods or Other Metagames, which there is a forum for.
Critical hits ignore defense raises and instead do 1.5x the damage the attack would do normally (with no raises).Hi, so I'm a new user who ran into this situation: I had a Reuniculus that was at 4x Sp Atk/Sp Def due to Calm Mind. The opponent was a Gengar trying to use Destiny Bond, so I tried to wait it out by spamming Calm Mind/Recover until it ran out of PP for it. Eventually he started using Shadow Ball, which only did about 18% damage, which Reuniculus shrugged off like nothing, and I recovered it easily. So I was about to hit him with a Psyshock, when he hits me with Shadow Ball, except it's a critical. No big deal, right? Wrong. Apparently Shadow Ball which until now had been hitting me for less than a fifth of my health, was able to OHKO me (despite having completely full health) because of a critical. Is there something I'm missing here? I attached a screenshot(I assume there's probably some way to record the battle but unfortunately I didn't do so), since I'm truly stumped as to what happened.
If you're referring to why staff are sometimes harsh about room suggestions, it's because many room suggestions don't follow the guidelines or are only suggested for the sake of suggesting a room, rather than to actually try to get something added to the site. The only room suggestions that will be taken seriously are the ones that are clearly thought through and will actually improve PS.Why do people get so serious over suggesting a room? I mean really, it's only a suggestion to the site.
I mean, a simple answer like "Sorry, but it can't be made: because, (reason)" is necessary. :p
Critical hits have always ignored defense boosts. They also used to ignore the attacking Pokemon's offensive boosts in RBY, which led to some hilarious luck-sacking situations...Huh, well I guess you learn something new every day. I hadn't realized they had changed it from the older versions of the game when it was simply double damage.
Yes.Question about sandtream ability.
Tyranitar lead, sand goes up, 5 turns passes, mega evlove, does sand go up agian?
As far as I know, it wouldn't really work because you have to connect to servers to use the team builder no matter what. However, you can try a combination of the smogon site and a word processing software to make sets and import them back into ps? I'm not exactly sure if you can or can't connect to teanbuilder if the server is blocked but I'm pretty sure that teambuilder wouldn't work anyway =/Say I want to use PS!'s teambuilder at school, but the school blocks the website. Would saving it as an .htm or installing the .exe allow me to use the teambuilder without being able to connect to the servers?
