You have a few hours left before the deadline (a bit over 32 hours). Please make sure you complete your matches before then. There is no excuse for not getting one game played in a week and I'm hoping to eliminate all potential activity scenarios as we progress through the rounds.

Round 3

Tournament Rules
- General tournament rules and regulations can be found here
- Smogon-wide clauses and Baton Pass clause apply
- The format will be 'best of three', with each of the three players playing one game
- Single elimination; no winners or losers bracket
- SM, ORAS and BW2 cartridge win conditions are in place; there are no ties
- Please save your replays!
Saving the replays of your tournament games is required. If your opponent is claiming you didn't beat them for the tournament or that the game never even happened, there isn't much I do about it without any evidence. Protect yourself and save the replay of your games and post them upon completion! Also, it'll be fun to watch some high level ORAS and BW2 Ubers games since those aren't played too often anymore!

Timer Clause
As for taking long between moves, if your opponent asks you to hurry up, please oblige. If you are doing a damage calc for a key turn that is one thing, but prolonging every move is suspicious and annoying. Don't do it. Furthermore, Battle Timeout is a rule for a reason. If you run out of time, you lose, simple as that. It does not matter what your opponent says. Do not battle if you think you will have to leave mid battle, and instead reschedule for a better time. Timing out is still classified as a loss, unless the reason for timing out is a disconnection. If there is any suspicion that a disconnect was carried out deliberately to take advantage of this rule in any way, we reserve the right to exercise a harsh punishment.
Disconnections
If a player disconnects and either player contends that they could still win, the optimal solution is to recreate the exact situation the disconnection occurred at during the battle. If it is agreed between players that this is not feasible due to unreasonable battle length, highly improbable circumstances, or some other reason, the player who did not disconnect may choose to rematch with either the same teams or (the option to use) new teams. Timing out is still classified as a loss, unless the reason for timing out is a disconnection. If there is any suspicion that a disconnect was carried out deliberately to take advantage of this rule in any way, we reserve the right to exercise a harsh punishment. Do not do it.

Aside from the rules above that I expect all of you to read, there's also some tournament specific rulings I want to touch on.
I have no issues with players switching between metagames throughout the tournament. For example, if Palkiapower29 plays ORAS Ubers in round 1 and his team advances to the second round then it's perfectly fine for Palkiapower29 to play BW2 Ubers in round 2. However, this means Palkiapower29's team mate Lord Dragon Breath, who in this example played BW2 Ubers in round 1, can't play BW2 Ubers round 2 as well, since Palkiapower29 already does. Each player on each team has to play one of the three metagames. One of the players playing two of the metagames in one round is not allowed. One of the metagames being played by two of the players in one round is also not allowed. If any of those things do end up happening your team will be disqualified immediately.


Without further ado, let us get into the matchups!

#FreeTheLesbians vs SMH
SM: eifo vs. ShadowQuinn
ORAS: teachable vs. Mysterious M
BW2: EviGaro vs. Hack

appleseeds vs Trout ain't dead
SM: Thimo vs. Garay oak
ORAS: Mael vs. Lord Outrage
BW2: Blightbringer vs. Real FV13

The Black Knights vs soviet is a (BAN ME PLEASE)

ORAS: Leru vs. Chop
BW2: hyw vs. March Fires

STAG Bot Lords vs Remaining PO Kids
SM: The Trap God vs. Casparov
ORAS: Hugo Barrington vs. Melle2402
BW2: magsyy vs. Hassin627


The deadline is Saturday November 18th 23:59 PM GMT -3. Since you're all playing just the one game per week, don't get your hopes up trying to get an extension approved; I will be strict about activity.

Good luck, and above all, have fun! :D

Due to the extreme inactivity displayed by Chop since the round was put up (scheduling attempts by Leru were done through discord), and considering Leru explicitly shared with me that there is absolutely no way in which the game can be done before the deadline (he specified this early in the week) even if Chop were to reply right now (which he still hasn't), I'll be making the activity decision right now, which is a few hours before the deadline.

Activity Calls:
ORAS: Leru vs. Chop - team "The Black Knights" goes through

Semi-Finals will be up shortly!​

All SM games should be played in regular SM Ubers rather than USM Ubers, unless both players agree to play USM Ubers instead. Bringing USM Pokémon without your opponent's explicit consent will result in an automatic loss.

The deadline is Sunday November 26th 23:59 PM GMT -3. Since you're all playing just the one game per week, don't get your hopes up trying to get an extension approved; I will be strict about activity.
