    Remember, the first two days are for you to send in your match predictions, either by post, VM on my profile, or a PM to me. Of course, you have the option to not bet, but considering it's a free pool of points, why wouldn't you? Just to recap the betting rules are in the spoiler below.

    Every player will start with 100 points with 100 more points to bet on up to 5 matches. The player may not bet on their match and may not bet more than 30 points on a single match. As betting is required for this tournament, on top of the usual 7 days (round 1 will as long as the other rounds this time), there will be 2 days at the start of the round for everyone to submit their bets, which may either be PM'd or posted in the round thread. A bet post/PM should look something along the lines of this:

    Player C:
    A v K (30)
    B v P (10)
    G v Q (25)
    L v J (25)
    O v Z (10)

    For every match you predict correctly, you earn double those points and for every match you mispredict, you lose that total. For example, if C's first 3 picks are correct and the last two are wrong, their total at the end of round 1 would be 195. (100+30(2)+10(2)+25(2)-25-10). The final tidbit about scoring itself is whether or not you win. If you win, you get half of the total you started with that round, rounding down (so r1 win would put you at 150) whereas you lose half, rounding down if you lose. These calculations are put into place before the bet points. At the end of the round, the players who place in the lower half of the point total (so bottom 16 in a round of 32, etc) are eliminated from the tournament. Scores at the end of the round carry into the next round.

    And, to additionally reiterate, for Round 1, you have 100 points to bet that much be split between up to 5 matches with a max bet limit on a match of 30. Please submit all bets by November 6th, do NOT start battling before then. I will notify everyone when the battling phase begins (right after the betting phase is over). Good luck everyone.

    EDIT: Battle phase has now begun and will end November 14th.

    I went ahead and added the leaderboard to the OP. It should be self-explanatory: above the line and green, you're safe for now whereas if you're below the line and red, you're in danger of being eliminated by the end of the round. After each recorded match, I'll go ahead and put down what everyone lost/gained from that match. At the end of the round, I'll post a massive recap. Remember to get your predictions in by the 6th, here's a massflash to everyone besides @ASH_CHAMPION because he already sent his in. (...oh wait lol)

    @gengar17 @Ortheore @Casparov @snaga @Atli @ready2go202 @Sweetness2577 @Oh So Penspin @Jethalal @Joyverse @inigomontoya @La.Melle2402 @Elize Lutus @TraceofLife @Brycen-Man

    Since @Ortheore and @Joyverse already battled, this is what we're gonna do: @Jethalal and @Brycen-Man, your bets are nulled for that match so edit your posts to bet on another match. Everyone else is locked out from betting on Ortheore vs Joyverse at this point forward.

    EDIT:

    No, you can bet on up to 5 people. You failed because 40 points on one match is past the maximum bet limit (30).

    Still betting right?

    Atli vs La.Melle2402 (20) - Did someone say Auth OP?
    ready2go202 vs Elize Lutus (30) - I am of the school of thought that Elize is pretty gud
    Sweetness2577 vs TraceofLife (20)
    gengar17 vs Jethalal (20)
    Casaparov vs ASH_CHAMPION (10) - Meh

    Also, we will now point out all the people that are going to lose points soonish

    Shoutout to Penspy, Melle, and readytogo202 for only putting down 20 points rather than 30 on me losing, yall are the best

    Today's the last day for predictions, following people still need to send one in:
    @Sweetness2577

    And that's it! Good job everyone else keeping on top of this tournament. The only other thing I need to happen for the battle phase beginning is @Brycen-Man editing his Ortheore vs Joyverse bet still as those two played before his bet and he still bet on them.

    The battle phase will now begin and ends November 14th. @Sweetness2577 simply won't reap the benefits of betting and I'm simply going to null @Brycen-Man's bet on Ortheore vs Joyverse. As @Ortheore and @Joyverse finished early, they can sit back and relax I guess but remember, just because you lose doesn't mean you're automatically out so stay in touch with the thread. Everyone else, here's a tag, good luck.

    @gengar17 @Jethalal @Casparov @ASH_CHAMPION @snaga @inigomontoya @Atli @La.Melle2402 @ready2go202 @Elize Lutus @TraceofLife @Oh So Penspin

    I could have, but considering more bets could have been made and influenced by the first match results, it wasn't really desirable for them to play again.

    I guess I really do have to play Pokemonz. Siiiiigh

    I could VM @snaga , but I could also just flash him here and look for him on server again, I see him quite consistently.
