PokeMMO Battle Association - Division Alpha Draft - 26th of May!

[OrangeManiac]

The following players take part of Division Alpha and thus are part of this draft:

 

@DoctorPBC @Aerun @DoubleJ @DaftCoolio @Mnemosyne @MknsZblex @TJXD @Bartolomew @kiwi @Goldeneyes @RysPicz

 

Can each player give me a confirmation you can be there either by yourself or with a representative? Thanks.

 

 

The draft will happen in this thread. The rules for the draft:

 

1. You have 1000 credits to be used to draft Pokemon in this auction. You may not exceed this limit and if you do, your draft pick is invalid. The cost of each Pokemon will be found below.

2. You may only draft a Pokemon no one in this division has yet drafted. If you accidentally draft a Pokemon that has already been drafted, your draft pick is invalid and you may immediately draft another Pokemon that hasn't been yet drafted.

3. DO NOT EDIT ANY POSTS. If you make a typo, an error, etc. write a new post quoting your old post to fix this error. However, if you get a buyer's remorse of your legal draft pick later - that draft pick will not be changed!

4. You may only draft on the time appointed to you. The times for each player's pick will be found below. If you are late for your draft pick, you can use your draft pick late - however, if anyone who was supposed to be after you drafted legally a Pokemon you wished to draft, you no longer can draft that Pokemon.

5. https://time.is/ will be used to determine whether a pick was made legally on time.

6. If a host says your pick was invalid, it will be invalid. There's no time for arguments, the draft will need to move on.

6. You may use a representative to draft behalf of you, granted you let me know about this in advance.

7. If you have any questions during the draft, the best way to contact me or Bluebreath is through Discord.

Oh, I forgot to specify. Let's keep the draft thread free of shitposting. Shitposting can be done in the discussion thread and I'll soon open a more official general thread where Coolio can spam his memes all day.

[OrangeManiac]

@DoctorPBC @Aerun @DoubleJ @DaftCoolio @Mnemosyne @MknsZblex @TJXD @Bartolomew @kiwi @KaynineXL @Goldeneyes @RysPicz

 

Tagging you all again because I accidentally wrote on the title that the draft is 26th of June but it's obviously 26th of May so it's in 3 days.

Edited May 23, 2018 by OrangeManiac

[OrangeManiac]

Announcement: KaynineXL told me he can't attend this week's draft. Because Parke let me know he can play both weeks, I'll put Parke in for this division and KaynineXL for next week's.

[DoubleJ]

I'm good to go

Should the rare event that Eviolite be introduced during this event, can we ensure it's banned?

I put Chansey, P2 and Dusclops in higher tier than they should be currently to deal with this imbalance issue if Eviolite happens to be implemented. Some others might get a jump in viability too but they would have been almost free to begin with so it's not a huge problem. The reason I don't wanna ban Eviolite is that other implemented items should be discussed then too and I don't want to do that. Good point though.

[DoctorPBC]

Sweeet, looking forward to it

Time to stash ferroseed.

[RysPicz]

Already told you ingame but I'll make it official- I will be there.

[TJXD]

I'll be there , if unforeseen circumstances on that date somehow I'll have a rep draft for me.

Can you guys confirm me that you can participate this draft on upcoming Saturday so I don't need to do any last minute arrangements? You can do this by just liking this post if you want to. Thank you.

nice way to farm likes, sneaky

[DoctorPBC]

Can we open the possibility of a trade window following the draft, only equal value trades allowed?

I like the idea and thanks for bringing this up but because we're so close to the draft, I'd prefer not to make any last minute adjustments. I've already taken plenty of time to explain the rules to everyone interested and I don't want any sudden surprises for the draft because whether if trading is allowed will greatly affect to one's drafting decisions. Therefor I'm sorry to answer that no.

The draft is live exactly 2 hours and 2 minutes from this post. I made Google Drive Excel sheet which allows you to keep track what Pokemon your opponents have drafted. This can be found here (updated): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1o5q0qgu5_xoHxdnL01PBj5tvEToWL1orbdxy4rpbqJ4/edit?usp=sharing

 

Tagging you all just in case to remind you: @DoctorPBC @Aerun @DoubleJ @DaftCoolio @Mnemosyne @MknsZblex @TJXD @Bartolomew @kiwi @Goldeneyes @Parke @RysPicz

There's no need for Discord, but if you guys wanna hang out in https://discord.gg/pmuUHU just join. The draft posts will be made in this thread.

 

I guess I should have specified this before.

[OrangeManiac]

Because I'm a dumbass and didn't realize OneDrive doesn't update real time, I made a Google Drive instead which updates real time. The link will be found here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1o5q0qgu5_xoHxdnL01PBj5tvEToWL1orbdxy4rpbqJ4/edit?usp=sharing

[OrangeManiac]

Mkns let me know he decided to pass the first season of PBA because he told me being active during this season would be a too big of a problem to him.

 

I won't reset the drafting schedule, the picks that were supposed to be Mkns will just mean everyone has additional 2 minutes per round to visit their fridge. Also 34 minutes to go, hype!
