maybe if you donate again i would

bilburt donated another 40m, cool i guess

shout outs to @Bilburt for donating another $54,036,884 and becoming our second highest donator. brings out total pot to $222,405,072

Yeah splitting it to get the best of both worlds would work. By tomorrow I should have enough to push us to 200m in prize money. Which would be around 120 for first i think.

Thoughts on splitting the prize by wins? Gunt suggested splitting by matches played instead. Or do they both suck and u want it split evenly regardless.

when did the girl from skins get so fat?

hopefully this way he won't sign up in the actual thread

shout outs to @Bilburt for being rich and donating $45,963,117. i guess that makes up for those 47 likes

it wasn't about wanting/not wanting a SD tier, I simply didn't think it would have the depth to make it a Manager's Choice Tier. If im wrong and a bunch of people sign up to play SMOU it can be changed and added as a choice before the draft. Manager's can still gamble on undervalued players and find breakout players with later picks. No there aren't eight Frags out there, but I do think there are at least, if not more, eight top tier players who can go toe to toe with each other in their respective tiers. In terms of being able to team build sure some players might be better than others but the same problem exists when managers don't play. When you have eight top tier managers the gap is knowledge is relatively smaller. Yes not everyone who signs up will get to play. Yes some players may be benched the whole season and not get to play. This is again no different to having an auction. As for the prize I don't see why someone who didn't play a game should get the same share of prize money as some one who won every game. I get its a team thing, and they can still say they were on the winning team, they just wouldn't get the physical reward. Some players put a lot of time and effort into making comps each week and I think the prize distribution reflects that. If a team or player wants to share their prize with someone else in the team they can.

pretty much what zymogen said, there isn't the depth a random order is fair, no one manager has a better or worse chance at receiving a certain pick. I did think about a manager's tour for the order, but that would depend if they all felt comfortable playing a specific tier. I don't mind leaving this up to the managers' themselves. If all eight managers want to do a tour for the order and can agree on one tier we can do it that way. r-rong

Nope and Nope Your right this is PokeMMO Super League where we have had at least one showdown tier every season. Most of the community might not want or care about showdown tiers, but in saying that your conceding that it means some of them do. Its an event for the community and there has been significant interest in SMOU in the past No doubt there is more strategy and risk involved in an auction but that isn't to say there is none in a snake. The main reasoning behind a snake is to make the tournament more competitive with more even teams. And I get the whole but its up to managers to pick a good team argument but this isn't a tournament for eight people. I don't want players to lose interest literally once they have been bought because the manager that bought them made a garbage roster.

Eggroll made this logo Welcome to the eleventh season of the PokeMMO Super League – widely accepted as the finest and most prestigious tournament in PokeMMO, both officially and unofficially! The PokeMMO Super League is a team based tournament. Eight managers buy together a team and try to lead that team to victory in a thrilling nine week long journey. It certainly is one of the most enjoyable competitions PokeMMO can offer you, so why not read along and join the fun? I, Elcoolio, will be your host. Having spoke with the past hosts and told them of some of ideas I had to spice up PSL we agreed I'd be the right fit for the job. This PSL will also come with different rule-sets and regulations. Make sure you read all of this thread to be fully up to date! Major changes include: 1. Managers will be able to play for their teams. 2. The draft format will be a full snake draft instead of the typical auction. 3. Tiers will be OU/UU/NU/LC/Doubles/SMOU/Manager 1's Choice/Manager 2's Choice. Each manager will be able to choose one tier each week out of OU/UU/NU/LC/Doubles. 4. There will be no mid season auction/draft. 5. Trades will be allowed up until the end of week three. 6. The top four teams after the regular season will play for first place, the bottom four teams will play for fifth place. 7. Each teams prize will be divided among its players based on win rate. If your team gets 45 wins in the season and you got nine of those wins you would receive 20% (9/45) of your teams prize. 8. Coaching will not be allowed. Anyone found to be coaching or being coached will be punished. Schedule: Week 1: General Thread and Rule/Changes Discussion. Week 2: Manager’s sign up thread will open.
