Keep signing up guys and we might start up July 1st!

Thanks, VA. I'll try to get my form back before the tourney starts. I finally got my team transferred to my Platinum, so I'm ready to go. Turns out I can't use my Rotom-H, but I've still got my old favorites.

pokemon.trainer June 23rd, 2009 4:41 PM

Looks like you will be, WK. ;) Or at least most likely, yes. We'll get back to you, considering Alex looks like he'll have limited Poké-time this summer as well. We're not positive yet, though.

You'll still of course be needed to accept initial prizes, because Alex will be away (and most likely without wifi) from this Saturday until July 7th, and I'm sure we're accepting prizes before then.

.:BlackBone:. June 25th, 2009 1:07 PM

i can donate my event regigas for 2 extra points or my shiney togepi and larvatar

The event regi sounds good, you can contact World King about donating your prize. ^_^

World King June 27th, 2009 8:39 AM

Thanks, Ryan. I'll have Plenty of Poké-time, so I'll be able to take care of it.

And remember people: I'm the guy you need to about prizes.

RosaSunglasses. June 27th, 2009 11:01 AM

Sure thing! Happy to have you, just make sure that you new recruits are reading up on the rules. If things seem confusing, no worries, we'll post a summary of how to get your matches started once we begin on Friday! Then everyone will know just what to do.

Alright, nice!I have a question though. I'll be gone from the 19th-25th. Will that inflict me being in the tournament?

19th-25th of July I assume you mean? No, not at all. Once this first round starts on Friday, everyone has 3 weeks to be one of the top 16 players to reach round two. So basically you'll be leaving right around when we hope to start round two, so in that case we'll just postpone your match/let your opponent know when you'll be back. No worries!

That is if the 1st round does really finish in three weeks...given it's summer though/everyone is battling like crazy, it should go as planned.

.:BlackBone:. July 1st, 2009 11:00 AM

i keep pm'ing vm'ing world king about the donation n he doesnt respond...whatsup with that?? -.-

World King July 1st, 2009 11:06 AM

The thing that is "up with that" is my extreme business lately. No need to ask someone else about one's stuff, you know. Just in case, I'll go ahead and take it now.

Volkner's Apprentice July 1st, 2009 12:07 PM

Alright so the prizes we need to give out for last tournament, we'd like to get that done ASAP. Right now Xairmo gets to choose 4 prizes as our finalist, followed by third and fourth place getting 3 each, fifth and sixth each get 2, and seventh and eighth receive 1.

As far as donations go, no worries, I can accept a ton later tonight too so that way you guys can start with your 5BP on time. I'm sure WK will be able to take as many as he can today/tomorrow. :-D

Outlander July 2nd, 2009 1:26 AM

I didn't miss the start of ESO 4 did I? I'm already signed up and everything I was just wondering because I can't remember when it starts XD

No I don't have wifi at them moment, sorry. Keep trying for a time with World King I guess, or see if Volkner can take them.

crimsonstorm July 5th, 2009 8:24 PM

I'd like to throw my name into the mix if that's cool. I can really use the battling experience.

Denzer July 7th, 2009 11:58 AM

I have a few questions.
EV'd Shiny Ninetails - Modest Nature<---- Does this have Energy Ball? If so, I'll take it.
Also I have a few questions about WK's Event Shop since we can choose from there too right?
Natures on his Shiny
Blissey
Ability too on the shiny Roselia and Roserade
And nature on shiny Spiritomb

Also Elecktrike and Manectric natures please.

You are correct sir! =P

Alrighty folks, it's high time we kick this tournament off! I now pronounce ESO #4 officially in progress. I'll be posting the battle thread shortly. If you don't already know how round one works, let me explain: You start off with 3 battle points and wager them on battles against other entrants. You can wager however many points you have as long as the other battler accepts. You can also fight in whatever tier and whatever style you like, including UU, Doubles, Ubers, Roulette, Little Cup or any other I neglected to mention. You need to obtain 8 battle points to move on to round two. You can, of course, donate a prize for an extra two battle points, and if you're knocked out of the first round by losing all your battle points, you can have a lucky loser battle against someone else who has no points. If you win the battle, you'll be granted two battle points. But remember, you can only use one re-entry method, so if you donate to get back into round one, you can't have a lucky loser match.

You'll look for your battles in the ESO Battle thread and post your results in this thread. Pretty straight forward...The first post has all of this information as well as the first post of the battle thread. If you have anymore questions, feel free to ask them here. And with that....commence! Good luck to all participants!

One last thing: You can still enter round one even if the tournament has already started, so don't be afraid to join in the action ;D

Denzer July 8th, 2009 12:34 PM

W00t! I'd like to wish everyone good luck and also please check my above post. I need some info on some of the prizes.

World King July 8th, 2009 1:12 PM

I can fully take care of prizes, guys. So those wishing to donate, VM me with details of what you wish to donate, that VA and Aura can take a break.

The American Battler July 8th, 2009 1:18 PM

So, a new ESO Tournament has begun... sign me up for this one, as well.

Denzer July 8th, 2009 1:18 PM

Also WK can you give me info on those prizes I questioned about above?

Mukkamoto July 8th, 2009 1:42 PM

Actually sort of, you're allowed to pick 4 prizes, Xairmo for being runner-up. Go ahead and choose from the front post and Aura/WK/I will check to see who has which.

Luigi, we never got which 3 you wanted. But technically Xairmo gets first pick :P Followed by Wolflare.

Not at all, Ooka! Like the guy below me says, the first round starts but we still allow anyone to jump in (we need to allow that in case half the pool of BP carrying members go inactive for whatever reason.)

XLoGyBeArX July 9th, 2009 9:31 AM

ɐʞoo beat me for 1 bp... now im down to 2... X(

Blackbone beat me for 1 bp... i got 1 bp left... X(

.:BlackBone:. July 9th, 2009 10:24 AM

i beat nijolan and logybear for 1bp each so tht gives me 7 bp's total so after i donate i should be qualified for round 2.

XLoGyBeArX July 9th, 2009 11:02 AM

Super Luigi pwnd me for 1 bp, leaving me with none... XP

Denzer July 9th, 2009 11:04 AM

Confirming. That leaves me back at 3.

_Prince_ July 9th, 2009 11:06 AM

I beat blackbone for 1BP

Me = 5BP's

Denzer July 9th, 2009 11:51 AM

Beat HelloP for 1 point standard ou 4-0.

.:BlackBone:. July 9th, 2009 12:15 PM

i lost to price for 1BP and beat pokemon.trainer for 2BP
started out with 3
+1 from luigi
+1 from jake
+1 from nilojan (not counted until rematch)
-1 from prince
+1 from logybear
+2 from pokemon.trainer
so that gives me 7 BP's :D

That actually gives you 8 if my math is correct ;D

So that makes you our first round 2 qualifier, congrats! \o/

Denzer July 9th, 2009 1:18 PM

I don't think so. He said his win vs Nilojan can't be counted until he gets a rematch or something. If it does count then yes, he is the 1st person.

Jake♫ July 9th, 2009 1:20 PM

Death & Strawberry beat me too >.< WHAT IS WRONG WTIH ME!! -1 BP for me

Aurafire July 9th, 2009 1:51 PM

Denzer July 9th, 2009 2:18 PM

Beat crimsonstorm for 2 points 5-0. GG. Standard OU. Takes me to 6 then after a donation... 8!

MLU July 9th, 2009 2:49 PM

Beat elheroescuro 2-0. GG. 1 BP. That takes me up to 4. :D

Jake♫ July 9th, 2009 2:51 PM

shininglatios217 defeated for 1 BP

Death & Strawberry July 9th, 2009 3:11 PM

ok i beat Jake for 1BP, beat Rellyms lil bro for 3BP (he says he joined), and beat crimsonstorm for 1BP.
that puts me on 7BP i believe.

Jake♫ July 9th, 2009 3:34 PM

Beat MLU 6-0 for 1 BP, so back up to 3

Ooka July 9th, 2009 4:46 PM

Just beat MLU 5-0 for 1 BP.

I believe that puts me at 5. ;)

Oh, and for the record, nobody have VC on when you battle me, as I'm not very nice.

MLU July 9th, 2009 4:59 PM

Yeah, now you tell me.


-I am withdrawing from the tournament thanks to ooka's bad sportsmanship-

Ooka July 9th, 2009 5:00 PM

Haha, well, I can't say I didn't try to get a match without VC. :/

MLU July 9th, 2009 5:01 PM

Whatever. Bleh. MLU out........

Aurafire July 9th, 2009 6:03 PM

Before I go to bed, I just wanted to say...WOW! Nice job on day one battles everyone! I think there were at least 15 or 20, which has gotta be some kind of ESO record. Keep it up, and remember, if you've been knocked out, you can still have a lucky loser battle and get back in the game ;D

(P.S. - I hate you all for making me update the standings so much XD)

Denzer July 9th, 2009 6:25 PM

Looking got V_A or WK to get my prize for donation.

.:BlackBone:. July 9th, 2009 7:00 PM

i rematched nijolin and his ds died he said so we're just not gonna count it, ill donate to earn my last point.

Denzer July 9th, 2009 8:40 PM

I donated 2 prizes to World King, taking me to 8 points and making me, the first qualifier for round 2 of the ESO #4 good luck to all. See yall in round 2!
