February Mini-Tournament: No STAB!
CANCELED 
We have 10 entrants, so a round robin would take a while. As this is a mini -tournament, I've opted for a single elimination format. Our newer players have a sort of "preliminary" round since our number of participants is not divisible by four. Bracket is below: (Pairings are best 2 of 3, until the final pairing, which is best 3 of 5)
Rules - You may NOT use STAB offense! - Stabbed Utility Moves are still allowed! (Recover, ThunderWave, LeechSeed, etc) - No Ghosts! (no shadows this Groundhog Day) - No Chansey! (it's not Easter yet...) - No Amnesia on OU monsters! (Slowbro/Snorlax are fat) - Mimic is allowed! So you can obtain a STAB move in this manner! - Moves with set damage are allowed (SeismicToss, PsyWave, etc) - Counter is allowed! And the usual... - Mew & Mewtwo are banned. - Species, Sleep, Freeze, Self-KO, Evasion, and OHKO clauses are in effect. - Wrap moves (Wrap, Bind, Clamp, Fire Spin) are banned. - Both players may change teams after each battle.
Good luck everyone! Let me know if I goofed anything up...

Well, I'm against Brookman, the only guy I have already battled in no-stab mode. This won't be easy.

One question for in the future: how do you subscribe in these tournaments? I don't see that we needed to send you a PM or something, but if I find some time to 'train' the following weeks, I would like to participate in the March tournament  |

hey Phillie. we usually have signups in the first week of each month. This was the signup thread for this tournament. Be sure to check the board at the end of February so you can sign up for the March tournament. It'll be a good one. |

Lucas, post here when you are available to play and I will see when I can best accommodate.

My activity tends to be random. Next week, I expect to be available at around 4pm to 8pm GMT.
But if you find me before, we can already play. I'm ready.

Not really sure how that's relevant, WW.

Evenings work best for me (I usually get on the server after about 8:30 CST). And don't count yourself out yet, I'm not really one of the power players (and haven't really played much at all for the last 3-4 months). It should be a good match up.

I can do evenings. How about we wait a little while to prcactice a bit first? It's not like the tourney(or even the round) is waiting on our battle at this point anyway.
It's good to know you're one of the newer players too! I can hold my own against the power players(most of them) in regular OU rby, but it's things like UU, Ubers, and these gimmicky rulesets where I end up failing miserably.

Feel free to practice vs each other if you don't have anyone else beforehand. Just make sure you both know when you're doing the tourney set and not.

That's fine Garrin. Practice is probably a good thing =)
And yeah, I'm one of the newer people. I've played relatively little compared to most of the others around here.

We have a big tournament in March. That's why he said that.
Hopefully we'll get a bunch of matches done tomorrow and next week.
Fortunately, having a small tournament like this lapse into March would not be a huge deal. These matches go quickly and would not interfere with the OU tournament. That being said, we'll of course try to get things done quickly, this month.

Yeah, that makes sense. I'm looking forward to the big OU tourney! Finally, a tourney I can actually do ok in! :-)

Necavi and I live in the same region, so it shouldn't be hard to get our battle done.

Lost to Sub 2-1. I almost had it, but I had an untimely Freeze as my Muk was ready to explode on Starmie. GGs.
