I will figure out why this code is looking ugly later, GL guys! THERE WON'T BE ANY EXTENSIONS and you may sub your players until Friday at midnight (Thursday to Friday). NO JOHNING THIS TIME, OK? OK!
Can't access @Cranham's profile to schedule a time ?_? Edit: kek nevermind i didnt see that he posted on my wall
Guys you may sub until tomorrow at midnight (gmt 0), so if you guys want to sub take your time :] also replay if anyone wants to watch bc cranham linked the wrong thing: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ubers-386962578
i sub in for gunner vs snaga oras ubers cc1v1 hackmons cup random triples monotype randbat come at me vermin also go orch
Sorry @Elize Lutus but Perry gave you time until midnight to sub someome out. You are too late by 12 hours. @KyogreF4N has to Play or the CCC's gets the win.
I'm sorry if I have exams and not 100% free time to answer in this thread, that would be simply stupid considering MM can play today.
Ok so i'll make a long post cause I really don't have anymore time, i'm very busy. Anyway, if @Idiotz. accepts to let us fight to make a real tiebreaker, because it would be dumb to lose because I was a bit late, also because no one told me there was a deadline for subs ( I couldn't guess it, I just saw the first post when it was posted and that's it ) which is why yesterday I didn't sub in, although I asked my team if they wanted me to sub out kyo who came back on monday and said he would be free, and then he got inactive so I needed to sub. Having a rhythm of 2 exams/day at university isn't helping me either and I couldn't give a lot of time and input for this week, especially when we consider my free time was this morning. I'm requesting if possible to let me sub in my player so we could simply play that tiebreaker because between midnight and now my player was not on anyway, so I do believe it wouldn't matter that much since they're likely to play tonight. I know you had to play tiebreaker because of something in the kind but let's be honest, it wouldn't be nice to end a tiebreaker in this way just because a player of mine is never ever active for some reasons I can't understand. I just hope you accept to sub in otherwise it's over you take the win. Peace ~ PS: the sub hour limitation is very dumb.
If quinn agrees no problem to me However, I'd like to point out that the sub limitation was there bc I wanted you guys to finish it faster and to prevent any WO drama tomorrow just like it could've happened last round but it seems it's not possible. Take in mind that next round (which I'm also hosting) will have the same sub deadline - only that it will end Friday ~ Sunday. I don't need those dramas on this tour and keep in mind that I'm not letting this happen again (aka overruling myself). So @Idiotz. it's up to you, just post y or n and I will sub the player (or not).
Sub hour limitation was the stupidest thing i saw in this tour. Both Orch and i were online and could play, but quinn decided to take the non subbing win. I dont say i would win 100% or smth, but it would be cool to have a match done. anyway gratz on qualifying guys gj
ive talked to some people of my team and bc of multiple arguments i came to the conlusion that im not allowing the sub, sorry.
Elize Lutus, its your fault when you miss the deadline for subbing someone in/out. We cant take care of everyone just bc he is busy in real life. Before this tour starter i asked you if you have enough free time and you said yes. If you dont have enough time then you shouldnt manage a team. Also you are just in the tiebreaker because i made a mistake which let the CCC's lose against Snagas Metwos. Normaly there wouldnt be a tie breaker and Idiotz' team would he in playoffs. Also the tiebreaker isn't done yet. Idk if you forgot it, but there is also a third match in this tiebreaker. Win this match first before you are talking about a dirty win. And Kyogref4n has still 2 days to appear and get his battle done. So calm your tits and stop crying.
wasnt sure if i wanna reply but you are a great user so im sure you will understand you expect me to possibly throw away our deserved playoffs spot? i wonder how everybody else wouldve acted in my situation lol. we didnt get a deserved tie one week and if orch got the deserved act win in the last week this tier breaker also wouldnt have happened . there were no exceptions or extensions for us even tho it was just a 2-0. you should stick to the rules as well. my players did well and i dont want to take away their chances to win the whole thing. dont drag other users into this when youre just mad
What the fuck is the point of allowing subs in a tour if you're going to put a subbing deadline that's before the weekend (or any deadline at all, really). The whole idea of subbing is to replace a player that may have trouble scheduling/getting the match done so that said match may be completed in time. Why on earth would u add a subbing deadline, this retarded rule literally defeats the very purpose of subbing, 90% of matches get done within the weekend. What if something happens on Saturday and some player becomes unavailable, do you just forfeit the match? How in the shit are managers expected to deal with this autism, they just predict their players will be unable to play? I'm not calling out user Idiotz cuz evry1 in his position would do the same, it's not his fault if the hosts are clearly inexperienced/downright dumb. I don't know how in the name of fuck this rule ever made sense in their minds, but I sure as hell would like to hear their detailed thought process as to how they came to the conclusion that this was a good idea to begin with.
Niggas ass, didn't even try to flex tiebreaker... Im on quinns team and I dont rly agree w/ the decesion or a deadline for subs, that defeats the purpose of subs Shoutouts Elize lutus
Hello it seems I need to post here again about some things. I will not overrule myself because, as I said, what is done is done and we cannot change it - and I will not make this an unfair scenario to CCC. As I already explained in lenght to Carl in Skype and to the other captains in the Skype group, the rule was added as a test for the following two rounds because we (me and Melle, even tho the decision to add the rule was mine) thought that too many matches were being played on deadline's wake with a lot of subs on the last day, which isn't fair to some players because they wouldn't have time to build/test another team to face the new player with a different playstyle. I do understand that I could have been less strict with the rule (aka allowing subs 24 hours before the deadline) but the blame cannot be all on my feet because, as I told Carl, I mentioned this rule twice in this thread and I even pointed out which day it was and later pointed the deadline to avoid confusion and it's not my fault that their player were dead as it's not my fault that he didn't see my second post (which came 5 minutes after the OP was posted) or my third post. I apologize to Carl and I understand the positions of people who were against the rule but I'm standing by my position. I'm sorry that this resulted on such a big drama (because the main idea of the rule was to avoid WO drama firsthand) but it cannot be helped now... About this, I'd like to point out that before this tour I was a co-host to a 202 players tournament, which you can see right here. I also managed to be the main host of that tour back in 2013, when the tour had 193 players (which you can see here). I have also hosted 2 tournaments on this forum beforehand, which worked smoothly as ever. So you cannot just call anyone "inexperienced" or "downright dumb" without previous knowledge because I, unlike you, have clearly experienced what a host should do or not and therefore I'm not taking insults or lessons from you about this.
It would be unfair if I subbed in my player 2hrs before deadline, I literally subbed my player a complete day before deadline and both him and his opponent were in contact. Talk about unfairness, but the main point of this tour is to play games. This rule literally removed the purpose of your own tour. You can overrule yourself when the rule in question is just lackluster and didn't help anything but causing drama and possibly ending the tiebreak today. Nothing was achieved by adding this just face it. In all the previous rounds I was always fair to every opponent, disregarding if it was good to my team and didn't ask for activity. I mean we didn't pass the deadline I just don't understand why we need to have such a terrible rule when the hosts can judge by themself if someone is legit johning or if someone is trying seriously to play his game. This week is not a 202 players tournament but just a 6 players, why does it have to be that difficult to allow us to play a game is beyond me. With all the respect I have for you Perry, this is just a bad decision and the opponent team just showed a terrible sportsmanship, we weren't the one that caused them to not get an activity and instead do the right thing: play the game they should have played. You delayed some of their rounds just so they complete the battle, which i'm not even arguing against since in the opposite i'm in favor of delaying a round by some hours just to complete every possible battles. You legit added halfway the tournament randomly a rule that didn't even help anyone, just to end up with this. To be honest, I'm asking @Draciel to give his input on this because I clearly won't accept my team to lose without having a chance of playing at least.
I think everyone agrees that this rule is complete horseshit. Better remove it now and never use it again.
Too many matches are played on deadline's wake because it's during the weekend, which is to be expected. You would prefer having some matches not be played at all rather than putting some1 through the extremely strenuous process of building a team for another opponent, how fucking considerate of you lmao. The blame can be put on you because it's your dumb rule, pretty sure most managers expected their players to be available during the weekend which is why they didn't bother. Carl couldn't predict that his player could be unable to play, don't try to put the blame on him. I don't see how this could possibly avoid any drama. You're killing subbing as a whole and expecting things to go smoothly, clearly you have a cruel lack of foresight. Just admit this was a dumb rule and that you fucked up. Also if you don't want to be labelled an inexperienced/dumb host, then don't act like one and think a little before you randomly implement some rules halfway through a tour.
ok every1 please chill out till the tds post .no more dissing the hosts. they've volunteered to host the tour and i don't believe they deserve to be attacked like this the rule is kinda ass tho but in the end it's up to the hosts and the tds
ye sub deadline sux like everyone's already said lol how can you call out quin for taking a safe win for his team and proceed to call him "legit trash from smogon" when the blunder is done by your po dude here cut your narrow minded shittalk now i want orch to lose and there be more drama and snarky posts SORRY ORCH drama>love
After a discussion with Perry, Melle and the concerned team managers, the deadline for subs isn't a thing anymore so whoever was supposed to be subbed can get in and play. Deadline for this round still remains the same. @Elize Lutus @Idiotz.
+2 252+ SpA Fairy Aura Xerneas Moonblast vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Gastrodon: 372-438 (87.3 - 102.8%) -- 18.8% chance to OHKO gg
Could we get an extension so we can play tomorrow? Communication didn't work out. Check his wall for the VMs if you want to see. Tomorrow should be fine.
You both tried to play and we cant end this as a dead game ofc. Pls play your match asap so we can post semis tomorrow as well.
I won vs benbe, gg. Thanks for the game, it was quite enjoyable. http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen4ubers-389170895
I'm posting semi's tomorrow then, I'd like to ask @Elize Lutus and @Gunner Rohan for their lineups asap Semi is up as soon as they give me their lineups, which I hope it's soon.
why does this tour have semis there are 6 teams 4 of them shouldnt be in playoffs just 2 give us finals only pls edit: just saw this "The first place goes to final. 2nd and 3rd will play a playoff series with 6 matches like in the group stage." PLEASE STOP TRYING TO REVOLUTIONIZE TEAM TOURS THERE IS A REASON ITS JUST TWO TEAMS IN FINALS AND NOT WHAT YOU ARE TRYING TO DO
