    If you knew about it and didn't want to put in the effort to try to improve it, then you deserve the final score you got. As the saying goes, "the effort you put in is the effort you get out", and that applies here. Now, this is not continuing further, any further and posts will be deleted. We've been more than clear, and you were updated about clarifications right as they happened. Now please drop it, friend.

    Also thank you @Fate Testarossa for tagging the POV winners.

    that's where you're wrong. the people who got more than 20 did NOT in fact put more effort than me, they got luckier when they got 21 and 22.
    u know why? because people DONT CONTROL THE POINTS THEY GET

    To be honest I don't blame him for not attempting to spend more hours playing trivia to win $5. It's peak study moments right now and people have things to do outside of Pokemon Online.

    Pretty sure around 90% of the USA Playerbase on PO has finals within the next 5 days.

    Neither do I, but I don't see why this is still an argument. Especially when I notified him. Especially when the clarified tiebreaker would 100% be his. Especially when I asked for the issue to be dropped. Especially when I made damn sure to note the clock would not be turned back and no extensions would be given out for one person, as if I did that I'd be in an even bigger pile of shit.

    Anyway, @Hurricane, @Jethalal, @ajhockeystar, and @beforedawn, I'm about to buy the gift cards, just working something out with questions. I'll edit this when they're bought and sent.

    EDIT: Sent them to everyone besides ajhockeystar as I do not have his email. aj, if you could send me your email ASAP that'd be great :)

    Eviction #2 Results

    Hello everyone! After a week filled with drama, I felt like I was on the real TV show. With half-baked promises, the inability to let facts sink in, and some possible backstabbing, this week very much played out like a typical US-version episode. Joking aside, we do have a recap to do before the eviction results, so let's get to it.

    Before we even got to Eviction #2, @Xaxory was modkilled due to a lack of activity, making the pools slightly off. Not helping this is that the HOHs, @beforedawn and @Xxdecidudeye, never named nominees, leaving @DracoNova, @ajhockeystar, @gengar17, and @Sora to become the RNG's bitches. Meanwhile, over in Fate's pool, things seemed far more geared towards a specific target, as @Cheezeburgar and @Jethalal both aimed at @Kland, with other chosen nominees including @La.Neptune and @snaga. Unfortunately for @Hurricane, he too became the RNG's bitch and was forced to be nominated for the second week in a row.

    At the second Power of Veto, shakeups happened in a big way. While two HOHs, beforedawn and Jethalal, both won HOH, nominees ajhockeystar and Hurricane also won. After pulling themselves off the block, things were left to chance once again as the HOHs did not name replacement nominees. After the POV, RNG chose @MEOWMIX and @EvilDingoRobot as its new targets for eviction.

    Just like last time, there was one very distinct pool and one very tight pool. The tight pool was so tight this time that the last couple of votes forced a tiebreaker. Let's begin with the simpler pool -- Fate's.

    Receiving absolutely zero votes, MeowMix is safe. And, in a vote of 7-6-3... La.Neptune, you are safe. Kland and snaga, you have been evicted.

    Now the closer pool, mine. For the second week in a row, indecision ran high in my pool as the voters seemed absolutely split. Just like with Fate's pool, there was one person that received zero votes, and that person, EvilDingoRobot, is safe. The rest of the vote fell down to a 3-3-1 split. The person who received one vote, and is also safe this week, is DracoNova. Both Sora and gengar17 both received three votes, so we turned to both Xxdecidudeye and beforedawn to break it. While beforedawn offered absolutely no words, Xxdecidudeye had this to say.

    And, as such, on a vote of 4-3-1, gengar17, you have been evicted from the Big Brother game.

    Talk about an eventful week, three major competitors all biting the dust this week. What will week 3 hold?




    I'd like to take this time to announce that this will be the last week with the pool system. After this week, we will go to standard Big Brother play, where instead of 4 HOHs, 8 nominees, and 4 evictions in a total 2 pools, there will be 1 pool, 1 HOH, 2 nominees, and 1 eviction, with the occasional double eviction here and there. Now with that out of the way, let's get into what HOH #3 is.

    [​IMG]

    HOH #3 -- Clear Skies in Unova!
    For the competitive nuts that may remember, back in Generation 5, Pokemon Online had a tier called Clear Skies. Clear Skies was a direct response to the OU metagame at the time, which was very happily deemed "Weather Wars" (we even had a Mafia theme about it! ...a bad one but still) as Politoed, Ninetales, and Tyranitar with his cohort Hippowdon ran through the metagame like a cleaver in a horror movie (Abomasnow and his hail, not so much). For this challenge, you will be laddering on the BW2 OU (Clear Skies no longer exists) ladder with teams that do not have the following abilities/moves: Drizzle, Rain Dance, Drought, Sunny Day, Sand Stream, Sandstorm, Snow Warning, and Hail. If you are caught using any of these moves or abilities at any point, you will be disqualified from winning this HOH. Also, send your corresponding pool leader either a direct export of your team or a sketch (as in the Pokemon on your team) during the HOH run. This is so we can fact-check with you later down the line. The top two people in each pool on the BW2 OU ladder peaks in each pool in BW2 OU during the challenge time (use /records) will win HOH #3. Before I reveal the deadline, let me explain what laddering is for the uninitiated.

    Laddering is a concept tied to Find Battle on the server. One of the options is Rated Battle, which you will want on for this challenge. Doing rated battles is laddering, as you win or lose points depending on whether or not you win. This is going to be all this challenge asks for, just playing rated battles on the BW2 OU ladder until the deadline getting the highest peak that you can. For simplicity sake, you will not have to create a new alt specifically for this challenge. We will look at the rankings at the end of time and grab screencaps for the winners.

    Now, the deadline. Originally, I was going to have this challenge be a simple CC 1v1 laddering HOH until the sheer amount of rage over alleged RNG within the challenges themselves changed that course. Normally, I would have forewarned you prior to the challenge (like make teams during Eviction #2), so as a result this HOH will be slightly extended -- by one day to be exact. As a result, you will have until Friday, December 9th at 11:59PM CST (GMT -6) to compete in this challenge. Please make sure to send me your team in one format or another, and again be vigilant for anyone choosing to ignore the Clear Skies rule.

    Tagging everyone who was a regular voter last week here so they can be notified. @TraceofLife, @Hurricane, @aaditya01, @HSOWA, @Sasuke Uchiha, @Zyrader, @Atli, @Romantic_Guy, @raka143, @ajhockeystar, @Khaloss, @Agent K, @HBC, @Hassin627, @VirajVora.

    Outgoing HOHs (@Cheezeburgar, @Jethalal, @beforedawn, @Xxdecidudeye), you are unable to compete in the HOH this week.


    IMPORTANT EDIT: MAKE SURE TO PM EITHER FATE OR I YOUR NOMINEES SHOULD YOU WIN HOH. EVERYONE IN THAT LIST UP TO ROMANTIC_GUY, MESSAGE FATE. FROM HELLRAKA ON, MESSAGE ME. NOMINEES THAT WEREN'T EVICTED LAST WEEK CAN PLAY AGAIN. I HOPE THIS IS CLEAR ENOUGH, PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS IF NOT.

    EDIT2: Voting info in the OP has been updated. I suggest taking a look at the tables sometime, I have footnotes and everything!

    EDIT3: Wincon changed from "highest score when challenge ends" to "highest peak during the challenge".​

    it's ok guys joeypals said he will fix things for the future right? so it doesnt matter that rng put me in the pov in the first place and that incompetent hosting lost me the challenge, as long as the future is fixed!! so i'll be fine in the future!

    clear skies huh? does that mean dragmag? at least it's a bit more original than cc 1v1. But i'll make things more fun and promote 50/50s since this is what this game is about, here u go if anyone doesnt have a dragmag, i mean clear skies team.

    So from what I could understand it's not the highest peak that wins but the one who has the highest score at the moment the challenge ends? Once again this sounds quite unfair for obvious reasons (timezones, challenge will end at my 7 am and I definitely won't be able to stay around laddering until that time while someone who can will be able to know whether they're safe or not and what exactly is the score they need to beat).

    I mean no offense but as the host I believe you should really spend at least a little more time thinking about your challenges and trying to make them as fair and unbiased as possible since this isn't the first time a challenge turns out to be poorly thought. Each time there was an easy and better solution, but you didn't think of it before and refused to listen to the complaints brought up by others leading to a bunch of unfair results. If you want this game to be actually "good" outside of the money prize you should really start putting a little more effort in making the challenge rules (no doubt you're definitely putting a lot of effort in the rest but so far at least 3/5 challenges had some major flaws that prevented them from having fair results) and at least listen to people when they point out something that is evidently wrong.

    OK, hi. I never said I won't listen to feedback (as we have, both the Trivia and Riddle contests are improved for the next go), my main thing is trying to eliminate confusion. Both you and @Cheezeburgar have valid ideas, the issue is mainly trying to convey to over 20 people a change in the win condition after the challenge has started. Now, with this HOH we're slightly lucky in that there's the opportunity to change the win condition if Fate and I deem it necessary. I'll bring this up with him when I see him online and if we reach a different concensus, I'll have him tag everyone with the change and it will be reflected in the challenge post.

    I will say this -- If there's enough time in a challenge, Fate and I have no issue rebalancing the challenge. As hosts we want nothing but the best for our competitors. We're not intentonally trying to screw anything over whatsoever, when we made the challenges we went with what looked best at the time . Obviously, and especially in the last few, we were wrong. That's why we will try to help our competitors as much as humanly possible. That's why we updated gengar after he thought he couldn't pass 20 points and why Hurricane would have been given immunity had Fate not miscounted, as he should have been an HOH. We're not evil people, simply flawed, and we are working on these flaws. For example, Riddles are now being approved by TAs.

    I will talk to @Fate Testarossa about the peaks idea later today, if he approves it (because I like the idea and we do have the time this challenge), he will tag everyone with the wincon update.

    Thank you for your feedback.

    I definitely agree with Atli that the highest peak should win and not the highest score at the time the challenge ends.

    Oh boy another unfair challenge, seriously have you even bothered to review the balance of your game that you spent months setting up?

    Not trying to call you out or anything just saying that I would've expected a lot more balance/fairness from a game that was "several months" in the making.

    (14:54:04) Joeypals: Alright, it's about possibly changing this HOH's wincon
    (15:00:02) Fate Testarossa: ok
    (15:00:04) Fate Testarossa: saw his post
    (15:01:53) Joeypals: Alright, what are your thoughts
    (15:02:22) Fate Testarossa: it's similar to the trivia mishap but much less reliant on the activity of "randoms" I think
    (15:02:51) Fate Testarossa: also it's a kind of "one and done" thing
    (15:03:04) Fate Testarossa: which means it's harder for others to tell when they can safely stop
    (15:03:07) Fate Testarossa: and tbh, I like that
    (15:03:25) Joeypals: Same. Helps with possible time zone issues too
    (15:03:32) Joeypals: So are we changing it?
    (15:03:36) Fate Testarossa: I think we should
    (15:03:47) Fate Testarossa: Atli's explanation should suffice as enough reason to

    As a result, the winners of the HOH will be the two people in each pool with the HIGHEST PEAK SCORE. Again, Atli's post should explain why this chance was made. Be sure to include screenshots of your highest ranking on the BW2 OU ladder as well as include 2 people that you would like to nominate for eviction, should you win the challenge. The deadline is still the same: December 9th, 11:59PM CST (GMT -6).
    Tagging everyone that can compete in this HOH so they will see the change. @TraceofLife, @Hurricane, @aaditya01, @HSOWA, @Sasuke Uchiha, @Zyrader, @Atli, @Romantic_Guy, @raka143, @ajhockeystar, @Khaloss, @Agent K, @HBC, @Hassin627, @VirajVora (I hope I didn't miss anyone.)

    Another clarification: You are allowed to use more than one team for this challenge, but make sure you send it to either @Joeypals!! or myself.

    Hi, Professor Oak here. This was originally just the post in the first spoiler tag above. However, the saga regarding Aaditya1 is being seperated into its own seperate thread, so that it can be placed into the "PO Classics" subforum. As such, you will need to visit the link below to see what is being removed from this thread, in order to read everything that happened in the Big Brother game.

    Despite the last 48 hours being some of the best hours I've had in PO since I came in 2010 (props to aaditya 01, Atli, Cheezeburgar, Professor Oak, Annoying Orange, and Zoroark for making me laugh my ass off), we do need to move on with the game. HOH #3 ends in just about 23 hours, this is a post to tag everyone. Please make sure to send in your nominations for if you win as well as your peaks, as well as your teams. If we do not get peaks from you, we will refer to View Ranking so if you didn't send in your peak, that's on you. So here's everyone's tags, and good luck (yes tagging you too former HOHs, you need to be alert if you get nominated).

    If you didn't ladder just don't send anything, as that tells me you decided to sit this HOH out. The whole challenge was about laddering, so if you didn't why send anything?

    HOH #3 RESULTS
    The conclusion of this week's HOH challenge has brought with it three winners (as well as six people that have been nominated for eviction). The player with the highest peak score from my pool was @MEOWMIX with 1191 points and he nominated @HSOWA and @Zyrader. From @Joeypals!!'s pool, the top two players were @Agent K with 1110 points who nominated @raka143 and @beforedawn, and @HBC with 999 points who nominated @Xxdecidudeye and raka143. As a result, the 4th nominee from Joey's pool, which was chosen by RNG (hopefully for the final fucking time) is @Khaloss.

    The three HOH winners have each won $5 Amazon gift cards as well as Safari rewards of $1500, 35 Bait, 3 Luxury Balls, and 5 Premier Balls. Again, forum message Joeypals with your email (if you have not already done so) to receive the Amazon rewards. Tagging @IceKirby and @Fuzzysqurl to award the winners.



    POV #3
    All 3 HOH and the 9 nominees will be competing in POV #3, which is a forum scavenger hunt. You will be linked to the final post of a thread here. That post will contain a single word as well as a hint which leads you to another post (all the posts you need to search for will be in the same thread). Repeat that process until you have found 14 words. You will then rearrange these words to form two sentences. Once you think you have the two sentences figured out, message your pool owner with your answer. The person from my pool with the fewest attempts to figure out the two sentences will win this POV challenge. For Joey's pool, the winners will be the two people with the fewest attempts. (One winner from my pool, two winners from Joey's pool.) I mentioned 9 nominees instead of 6 because 3 additional people from my pool (chosen by RNG, and this is due to our infamous booster being disqualified from the forum game) will be competing in this POV and they are @Cheezeburgar, @TraceofLife, and @Hurricane. As an additional note, if you fail to correctly guess the two sentences three times, we will tell you which words are properly placed.

    All 12 participants, when sending in their answers, will also include who they are using their POV on to save (if they choose to use it at all). The three HOH (MeowMix, Agent K, HBC) need to send Joey and I names for replacement nominees in case one of your original nominees is saved. FAILURE TO DO THIS MAY RESULT IN YOU BECOMING THE REPLACEMENT NOMINEE. (Seriously, I am tired of people getting screwed over "via RNG" because other people can't follow directions.)

    MeowMix, HSOWA, Zyrader, Cheese, TraceofLife, and Hurricane will message me with their answers.
    Agent K, HBC, raka143, beforedawn, xxdecidudeye, and khaloss will message @Joeypals!! with their answers.

    In the event of a tie, the tiebreak will be determined on correct word count streak on the first attempt. Starting with the first word, whoever has the longer streak of correct words will win the tiebreaker.

    The deadline is December 11th, 11:59PM CST (GMT -6). Best of luck everyone.

    Updated the table in the OP to reflect this week's events so far. You guys should check it out sometime :) Also, just in case anyone missed it in Fate's post (I did the first time)...

    First hint is here, good luck POV players!

    When you click on the link that takes you to the thread, DO NOT CLICK ON THE LINK (the ones that reads "part 2 of the thread here") IN THE POST. JUST CLICK ON THE SPOILER.
