Hey there, not to reject you, but we'd like to get our regulars in first. If we don't have enough or you're subbing, then you can join. If you could select for skill as the main/only criteria it would be best (note: I have almost zero idea of the relative skill levels of your regulars/other RBYers, and I'd imagine you could judge regular's skill better, but try to just get the best possible team even if that includes non RBY2k10ers).

Anyway, updated the list with your name.

I was under the impression it would be today. Huh.
Ok, I'll see what happens. It depends on my New Years plans

I'm going to demote myself to a sub since I'd rather focus on working on RBYPlus than re-learning RBY to shake off my rust, and trying to do matches. I figure now that we've got most of our top players that we have the tournament guaranteed.
WaterWizard seems to have a grip on how Stadium mechanics metagame works if anyone needs some training. We've also found quite a few PO bugs to abuse if people want to play grimy, lol. Hopefully they'll get fixed before the tournament.

It looks like we have eight who are in for the tournament. If anybody who hasn't posted or volunteered as a sub wants to promote themselves, then they probably should to get the best sample of eight. If not, I haven't played since September (and rarely in the past year), so I'll need some practice to be ready to compete.

I'd still like high-skilled people like Crystal to post in here, even just to show a sign of no interest.

It's just that I will wait until PO adds non-stadium mechanics, I only play GSC there for now.

I would prefer not to participate until things are fixed. There are way too many glitches to have a tournament right now. And I'm on vacation.

If this is starting notably later, I'll sign up as a sub.

We will wait for bugs to be fixed before starting the rounds, however waiting beyond the basic "all important mechanics working as they should" makes it harder to find a PO team who have not played RBY battles, so further delays are to be avoided.

In in in. As a regular if there's still room for that.

You can have my spot Garrin and I'll drop down to a sub. I signed up just to make sure we had 8, but I haven't played in a long time. So you're probably in practice more than I am.

Sounds good to me, Dragon. Thanks. I've always wanted to be part of an RBY team. ^_^

Ete picked 6 players for his main team so I suppose we'll be running that as well.
I'll look over our entrants and create a team from there - anyone is welcome to disagree with me and I will consider their input.

Main players: Consumptus Earthworm Garrin Red Isa Posthuman WaterWizard Zilch Subs: Chase Daniel Byrne DragonAura GGFan Jorgen LucasBM M Dragon Redemption t3h Icy Most of the ones on the sub team signed up as substitutes, which is the reason why GGFan and Icy are there, for example. The six players on the main team are all skilled and I am confident that we will give the PO people a great match! We do need to decide upon rules swiftly. Wrap is banned (and also glitched, so no worries), but do we want to play with Focus Energy and Substitute? Remember that this is Stadium rules we're playing with.

I'm struggling like a pig against Stadium-Substitute Alakazam.
Any ideas? (Would this be worth a thread/a discussion inside Zam analysis topic?)

Turns out that we were going to have 8 players and that WW wants to play, which I had failed to understand. It's my fault, and nothing personal to anyone.
WW is going to be included on the main team and I do not think there's anyone that'll have an issue with that. The last spot is up for grabs, I will see who I'll put there.

As it stands, the last spot is between Redemption and Chase, and I have no idea how skilled Chase is. We have a lot of skilled players that want to enter as substitutes, I'd like a clarification as soon as possible if someone is willing to take part on the main team.

I'm actually not too sure about my availability for this. Work is taking up a large part of my week, and I have other things to do when I'm home.

Good luck you guys! I'm sure you'll trash them without much effort.
