November Neapolitan Tournament I came up with the idea for this a few months back. OU tourneys are pretty limited since most people pick the same 4 or 5 monsters for their team. This gives lower tier monsters a chance to be used with OUs. Since we've had some problems getting the last few tourneys finished, this is just gonna be an 8 player single elimination. RulesPokemon teams are 2 OU, 2 BL and 2 UU/NU Best of 3 matches, finals are best of 5 Mewtwo and Mew banned Sleep, freeze and self-KO Apply PP ups Evasion, OHKO and wrap moves banned Also I wanna ask everyone to shoot me a PM with some contact info like your IM or email in case you go inactive, then I know how to reach you. You don't have to though. Player List1. subsmoke 2. t3h Icy 3. consumptus 4. posthuman 5. Crystal_ 6. DragonAura 7. lucasbm 8. WaterWizard

I'll join. =) Also for any of our newer players, refer to this thread for our tiers. Are sets Bo3 or single matches?

Yeah once someone takes the last slot then we can come up with a date. I'm gonna see if we can get this done all in one day. I'll join. =) Also for any of our newer players, refer to this thread for our tiers. Are sets Bo3 or single matches? My bad, was in a hurry last night. Yeah sets are best of 3.

I imagine WaterWizard will nab the 8th slot if nobody else does, but it's kinda silly how we got a flood that stopped at 7. =P

I can't imagine you'll manage all 8 of us at the same time, but if you really think so, you could try. =P

I'm gonna try to Icy haha ;D
I wonder if I should do random brackets or put new players against each other to make it fair.

Hmm, seeding is always tricky.
Well consider this. If there was a tournament with say GGFan vs WaterWizard in Round 1, that would mean one of them would tie for last, though be (likely) capable of performing better than that.
However, if you pair up all the veterans with our newer players, it can be a bit disheartening to get taken out early on (but it's amazing if they pull off the upset).
I'd suggest random brackets for fairness, or try to seed people as best you can.

Well we only have 3 new players. If we had 4 I'd put em against each other but we don't, so I'll just do random brackets.

I'm not sure how well that will work for Crystal, but we're both active enough. We'll make sure to get it done ASAP.

Hey, Posthuman, when will you have free time to play?
I will be very busy till the end of december, so I guess it willl be very difficult to us to match (besides weekends, where I can find more free time)

Oh, I'm curious, what's the ruling on switching pokemon out/in after a game?
Edit: WW, I'm on in the afternoon/night for EST. I can do anytime if we can set up something too.

After each match, both players may switch teams. Simple as that. You still obviously have to follow the rules and everything though.

hold on we've got a problem... are we allowing Tauros/Chansey/Gengar?
Traditionally (and by this, I just mean what Zilch and I have always done), these three pokemon are banned due to their absolute rape of UUs.
Perhaps in the 2nd and 3rd rounds we'll implement that?
Or maybe we can just do gentleman's agreements on a match-by-match basis...
sorry I didn't bring this up before. I just loaded my Neapolitan team and noticed I didn't have Tauros/Chansey/Gengar on the team...
