    Okay everyone, as of now you will have one week to send me, oneballjay your logs. I will need them no later then Monday, the 26th in order to make the next round.

    It was originally stated that everyone must send in there team, this was not the case. Andyrease is out of town and i had originally intended to join this tournament myself. Though it would be unfair if i could see all your teams, therefore i decided to withdraw myslef. To make a long story short, i have not talked to andyrease in a couple days, and i dont know who sent what teams in or who didnt.

    Because of this, it is more important then ever that you send in your logs. That way i can personally confirm that the teams were legit, as well as who rightfully won.

    Send them to me through PM in the forums please

    Also for future tournaments I will need the teams sent to me by a cirtin date. (i.e. all persons who wish to enter must send there teams to andyrease or oneballjay by__) This will help to prvent this problem from happening again.

    Best of luck to everyone and have fun.

    (Winners' names are in bold)


    1. Champion Cynthia vs Hodou Masaka
    2. destinybond vs Weavilewinz
    3. Tommmahawk18 vs SOHCAHTOA
    4. Joshua. vs Fyre
    5. BostonFanatic534 vs Scytha
    6. Actinis vs Gold
    7. Raseri vs Fievel
    8. Gary_MF_Oak vs Phop
    9. Sebgoat vs GHZ
    10. Supermarth64 vs Ninja17
    11. Sleuth vs Cpt. Falcon
    12. tylerwp vs Bluff
    13. Arcanine vs Platinum
    14. GALLADE FTW vs Ninka
    15. Insomniac vs Grapemunch
    16. ttre009 vs Denizen
    17. Hectord25 vs Tonico
    18. Luck>Skill(MAGIKARP YOUR GOD) vs Cykid
    19. Ice-eyes vs Aquadude
    20. Kioku vs G.I.R.

    This is the end of the round. Anybody not in Bold is because they were inactive.

    If there are any questions about the rules http://pokemon-online.eu/forums/show...ver-tournament

    Also a few people have asked me how they can find the logs that are saved. On Pokemon Online Beta server, above the chat there is a "Battle Options" menu bar. From there you can change log location

    If there are anyquestions please feel free to contact me, again the best way would be to send a PM through the forums.

    PLEASE DO NOT REPLY!

    When you send me your Logs, please send me the link to then. Do not just copy paste then to a pm and send me 3 or 4 different messages. These logs are two long for that so i would appricate the link.

    This is my fault i should have said this in the original post. Please understand that this is trial and error and i appricate you all working with me.

    AGAIN PLEASE DO NOT REPLY

    Destinybond came up w/ a great idea!

    When he sent in his log, he also told me who he was replacing his wild card with.

    I would appricate it if everyone could so i dont have to try to collect your teams later.

    Thanks

    Could we have the logs of the winner after the tourney? To show the epic list of battles he won? =)

    This is what i was planning on doing. i kinda didnt want to say anything yet because i wasnt 100 % sure if i was going to follow through w/ it. But w/e i believe its a good idea so ill do it anyway!

    I am plaining on making a PO "Hall Of Fame" i guess. and what i would do is this.

    Have the winners of all the tournaments saved on our forums in a sticky thred. I will have links to all the winners logs. also i will have the team displayed like in the team forums so other players could try out there teams.

    I would keep that thred locked, and update it at the end of each tournament.

    EVERYBODY LET ME KNOW YOUR THOUGHTS ON HOW I COULD MAKE THIS THE BEST HALL OF FAME AS POSSIBLE

    I think it would be cool to have the scores of all the matches he won, and in this tournament, the type of team it was
    so if i won it would be like
    Round 1 destinybond(***) vs. Weavilewinz(water) 2-0
    Round 2 destinybond(***) vs. frank(grass) 6-0

    ans so on

    You need to place the rules onto the OP: http://pokemon-online.eu/forums/showthread.php?995-First-PO-server-tournament

    Also, can we not call this an official tournament? This is just a special kind of tournament because it has special rules. It's a monotype tournament that allows a wildcard (contradictory to monotype).

    Also, it's better to bold the winner rather than use the "---> winner" method.

    As far as the name goes, Honestly i dont really care.

    In my opeion Forum tournaments are real tournaments, and this is the first one. Not a top priority for me.

    As for bold. i will usse that suggestion. Thanks

    I've just realized, there are 20 matches in this tournament. We want to stay away from giving byes as much as possible. So next time be sure the tournament number comes out to 32, 48, 64, 96, or 128 to avoid giving byes. And leave the rest as "substitutes."

    Yeah i am aware of this. The reason is because andyrease didnt give a target number in the op and people kept joining. we had some complications with him going out of town. Its my fault as well, and we need to avoid this in the future.

    Now that we got a structured rules set up, this shouldnt happen again.

    I've contacted my opponent and currently waiting for a reply.

    I'm down with the "hall of fame" idea. How about banners for tournament winners?

    Im not opposed to that idea by any means. However, i currently have a full plate and dont wish to take on any extra work atm. Would you be intrested in doing that phop? Or for that matter would anybody be intrested in making banners?

    If someone is and they turn out well i see no reason why not.
    Eternal, your thoughs on this?

    I'm hopeless at banner creation but I'm pretty sure an individual among us has the talent. *Hints*

    Well, the banners are optional. If anyone can make them, then do so.

    For the "Hall of Fame" idea, I'm just going to use Earthworm's idea and call it "Tournament Listing." With information on approved tournaments, current tournaments, and past tournaments. Alright?

    Has there been though to contacting the participants that havent battled yet? kind of as a reminder? I already talked to two people who havent battled yet, who said they totally forgot about it.

    /idea
    if there are two active people who each have inactive opponents, they should match each other, to create less byes overall

    Grapemunch was on yesterday. You're just going to have to pm him through the forums and set a time for your battle.

    I sent this PM to everyone. The reason i am posting here as well is so that nobody can claim they did not get it.
    Everybody make an effort to get ahold of your opponent please

    Everybody you do not need to say "i have not herd from my opponent." I have sent everyone a message, I know who is active. I know who is inactive. What you should do instead is try to get ahold of your opponent through pm. That way if/when they log on they will for sure see the message.

    Well, Grapemunch is on, but AFK, hopefully we can get our battle done today.

    EDIT: Or not...
    EDIT 2: Well, lost 1-0 because of a Fire Blast miss >.>
