[shademonkey]

Just relaying what's been said on the Breeders' Discord

Hello everyone! The weekend before Halloween on October 28th, Dusk will be hosting a tournament. The matches will be best 2 out of 3. The event will start at 2 PM EDT. The ONLY rule is the Species clause: No copies of the same pokemon. Check-in will be 6 hours before the due date/time. Please don't forget to PM him your teams once they are set. Like in previous tournaments, signing up through Challonge will help with keeping track of battles and their results.
Here is the sign up link:http://challonge.com/tournaments/signup/PPOVJIuhyX

It was also announced on the subreddit. No comments on that post yet, though (disregarding the one bot comment).

Also, shouldn't this be under the Battle and Trade section of the forums?

Err yeah it should, I wrote this in a hurry and didn't even check where I was posting
I can't seem to delete the whole thread to move it though

@Iron, sounds like a thing you can do. Would you, please...?

I certainly had fun and joy with the last Tournament despite not managing to get far (my special-bred Eeveelutions did well and I'm still proud of 'em!), but I'm not quite sure yet whether I'll participate on this Tournament or not. The frequent disconnections during battle were not all that enjoyable...

Thanks @Iron

@PhantomUnderYourDesk Aw c'mon it'll be fun! You and your finely bred Eeveelutions definitely deserve to be part of the comp scene! ;)
The more people sign in the better, they said they would collect data from the mons used in this and a couple other tourneys to make usage stats in order to draw tiers
That's a start, and I'm super hyped about it
Though I probably won't get far either x)

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

*virtually hugging my Eevees, appreciating the compliment* Oh, they'll be collecting data to ever define Tiers? That's indeed somethin'... Guess I'll decide on a short-term base whether I'll join or not, depending on the circumstances how much free time I'll have on the day of Tournament. ^^

Looking forward to being pit against the very first person I traded with :p And yes, I'm assuming you'll be joining

@Lord Windos @Cataclyptic @Dragonstrike How about you?

I might join if I have the time.  I'd have to find the time to actually complete my competitive team first, though...but if it's done by that point and I've got the spare time on that day, there's a decent chance I might join up.  

So yeah, will have to get back to ya on that one.

I'm willing to participate this time around, though I have to finish training/modifying my old team to get them in tip top shape for the battle! No item clauses for this Tourny, right?

[shademonkey]

No clause at all except Species Clause

I'm out of shape myself so if anyone wants to battle casually some time, just hit me up. Doesn't even have to be with a tourney team
Hype is present, my friends.
