iSmashbro Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Looks intresting. I'll be there, even though I won't be participating (Not in a team/don't plan to join a team) Link to comment
Siege Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Can you randomize who battles who within the teams this time? KlauStaR 1 Link to comment
ChrisChris Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Request: Randomize who from each team is facing who before the match starts. And then assign people to each spot when its time. Some people got to "choose" who they fought every Round and it led to them doing better because they specifically swapped Pokemon around their teams to deal with the people they chose. Randomize it so they don't get that opportunity. If that makes any sense at all the way I said it. Link to comment

[/quote] Except one team usually swaps around in place and reject duel invites. There was one team specifically doing that last time so they had teams specifically prepped for one individual and wouldn't start until they made it so they fought them. Randomizing it removes that advantage. Link to comment

[/quote] No, the battle actually has to be triggered then either D/C'd/"crashed"/etc. for it to be considered a forfeit. It just seemed pretty blatant two teams have been doing that to their advantage the last tournament. I think removing the possibility altogether means a level playing field. And eliminates any "quick hand me that and switch with this" absurdity by PCs. Remove that and leave it to surprise/chance for once. Dannnno 1 Link to comment
Strych Posted March 19, 2013 Author Share Posted March 19, 2013 Registration date changed to accomodate Plizard's UU Tournament. Competitor dueling positions will be randomized. Plague, KlauStaR, ChrisChris and 3 others 6 Link to comment

Jag Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Does this mean the middleweights and lightweights are going to both be held next week? I also wonder if there are any future considerations for like level 50 UU or level 100 team tourneys. Link to comment
Zorxes Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Nvm don't mind me, dates have changed lol. So this will be the only tournament on Saturday right? Link to comment
