    It's finally time for the games to begin! You will all be playing for the $50 grand prize, but will earn rewards based on your progression throughout the game. First, you will all be split into two pools. The first pool belongs to @Joeypals!! while the second pool will belong to me. This will simply tell you who to send forum messages to pertaining to the challenges that will occur. I want to emphasize that while you will be split into two groups, this does not mean these are actual teams. You are free to work with (or against?) people as you desire.

    The first three weeks will all be double eviction to streamline the game and get the number of players down to 20.

    Joeypals' Pool

    Fate's Pool

    This first challenge will be "Smallest Winner", an HOH challenge. All players may use any Pokemon they want, so long as it falls within ORAS Ubers (RIP Mega Rayquaza). Each person will face another in ONE pokemon battle. Of all the winners, the two people with the lowest total team BST will both win HOH. The following are the matchups, and yes, you have to play against whoever your were paired up against.

    Make sure that BOTH players send their respective pool owner logs of the match (so we can see who won and what the teams were). The deadline for this is Thursday, November 24th at 11:59 PM (CST for Americans, GMT -6 for everyone else). Make sure you include who you wish to put up for eviction (in case you win) in the forum message.

    Good luck to everyone! (I guess neutral luck when it comes to battles.)

    Allow me to illuminate a possible concern you may have by pasting a convo log I had with @gengar17

    (00:57:29) gengar17: Joeypals
    (00:57:36) Joeypals: Sup?
    (00:57:43) gengar17: what does winning the hoh do
    (00:58:03) Joeypals: Winning HOH grants you immunity for the week and lets you put up two people for eviction
    (00:58:27) Joeypals: It also guarantees you a spot in playing in the POV competition
    (00:58:32) gengar17: so even if one wins the babttle they can be evicted
    (00:58:38) gengar17: battle
    (00:58:41) Joeypals: Yes
    (01:01:17) gengar17: so the only thing that happens if you win
    (01:01:20) gengar17: the battle
    (01:01:23) gengar17: as opposed to if u lose
    (01:01:27) gengar17: is that u can vote
    (01:01:35) Joeypals: No
    (01:01:38) gengar17: assuming u win without winning the challenge
    (01:02:01) Joeypals: Losing the battle to begin with ensures you will not be HOH
    (01:02:40) Joeypals: Winning the battle gives you the chance of winning HOH. For this specific challenge, you need to be in the top 2 of lower BSTs
    (01:02:47) Joeypals: So for example, let's just say 4 people won
    (01:02:47) gengar17: yea ok
    (01:02:48) gengar17: but
    (01:03:06) gengar17: theres like 30 people, 15 people win and 2 of them win the challenge
    (01:03:16) gengar17: what can the 13 people do that the 15 people who lost cant
    (01:03:33) Joeypals: There's 32 people actually
    (01:03:45) Joeypals: Anyway, lemme get back to explaining
    (01:03:59) Joeypals: First off, come eviction time, everyone besides the HOH and two nominees cannot vote
    (01:04:07) Joeypals: Including those that lost the HOH
    (01:04:33) Joeypals: Secondly, for this specific challenge, you want to have one of the lowest two base stat totals. So again, let's just assume four people win
    (01:05:03) Joeypals: One person has a BST of 2678, person two has 2995, person three has 2457, and person four has 2874. Person one and three would win HOH
    (01:05:34) Joeypals: And also, it's two winners per pool
    (01:05:41) Joeypals: So two people will win in my pool, two in Fate's
    (01:05:57) Joeypals: Does that make things a little clearer, gengar17?
    (01:06:07) gengar17: doesnt answer my question
    (01:06:16) Joeypals: (01:03:59) Joeypals: First off, come eviction time, everyone besides the HOH and two nominees cannot vote
    (01:06:16) Joeypals: (01:04:07) Joeypals: Including those that lost the HOH
    (01:06:22) Joeypals: (01:03:16) gengar17: what can the 13 people do that the 15 people who lost cant
    (01:06:25) Joeypals: ,
    (01:06:48) gengar17: so whats the difference between the people who lost the ubers battle and the people who won the ubers battle that arent hoh
    (01:07:17) Joeypals: There isn't. They all lose, except the two people that won. Winning the battle just gives you a chance at being HOH while losing locks you out entirely
    (01:07:22) gengar17: ok
    (01:07:40) Joeypals: Those people who won their battle, but lost the challenge can still be nominated and evicted

    Just to emphasize, because I literally got 4 questions about this within 10 minutes at 4AM after typing an 8 page research paper with 19 sources, here is the exact quote from the challenge post.

    "All players may use any Pokemon they want, so long as it falls within ORAS Ubers (RIP Mega Rayquaza)."

    Just to clarify and so Fate and I don't get this q for the 727th time, if you have a Mega Pokemon but do not Mega evolve it, only the base stat total goes towards the final total. If you do use a Mega evolution, the Mega's BST is counted. Same applies for primals.

    Everyone who has won so far, make sure you message your corresponding pool leader who you want to put up for eviction, should you win. The people you put up for eviction need to be in your pool (refer to post #44). Tagging everyone who has won so far now in two separate lists, top one being my pool bottom one being Fate's. If you've done so already, please politely ignore this message.

    With less than 24 hours left in HOH #1, I'm going to tag everyone that still needs to battle, again in two lists. I suggest either battling ASAP or start pulling out both server and forum logs as to why your opponent is inactive. Just like with me tagging the winners, the top list belongs to me, and the bottom half belongs to @Fate Testarossa. POV #1 will start tomorrow, we don't take johns here.
