Draft Tournament [Sign-Up]
 


SIGN UPS ARE OVER

This is a tournament idea that Khold came up with so I'm stealing it. >=O

There will be preferably 10 members, but maybe we can get 8, and then hopefully me and someone else will make 8 or 10 groups of 8 or 10 pokemon respectively ranging from good to bad. Each player will pick from their assigned group and pass the remaining pokemon up to the next person, and the last person gives theirs to the first person. This will continue until all the pokemon in each group are gone, and each player has 8 pokemon. During the tourney, you can interchange the remaining two pokemon of the eight for the six that'll be used for your team.

Note: You'll have to have these clauses on while playing:

-Sleep
-Self KO Clause
-You must allow spectators

I also want you to PM me the log of the battle to prove who won.

So SIGN UP

Current Signees.

-Shuckle
-Mana
-Tooth
-Hellishshades
-Demonion
-Spike Razzor
-Khold
-Nathaneal
-Kirby00
-Chibitsyan

Okay.

In, I am with a bunch of extra characters for good luck

Toothache December 1st, 2004 1:57 PM

Sure, I'll stick my name down for this. Sounds like an interesting idea, having someone else make my team (I'll probably get a horrible team and the winner will have my masterpiece team LOL) ;-)

Shuckle December 1st, 2004 2:11 PM

Thank thy for signing up into my Tourney

HellishHades December 1st, 2004 3:30 PM

Sure, I'll sign up. I also suggest Freeze clause; hax just happens.

Mana Lugia December 1st, 2004 7:14 PM

Disagree, having Freeze clause is like having a Critical Hit clause, or an inaccurate move modification so all moves never miss.

Wicked good point. I feel like a fool now.

Mana Lugia December 1st, 2004 8:57 PM

Heh, would like to point out however that freezehax does indeed suck and I have been victim before =(

And swore quite a few times right after.

HellishHades December 2nd, 2004 12:31 PM

I take solace in the fact that the opponent didn't win due to skill. It's still awful, though.

You could abuse the 60% freeze rate with Blizzard on Dunsparce/Jirachi. Not nice. I may be wrong with the numbers. Otherwise, there would probably be an influx of people using Blizzard on Jirachi.

Cradily always seems to get frozen. Even though I Amnesia up 2-3 times, everyone still goes for hax.

Shuckle December 2nd, 2004 1:17 PM

Thank thy for signing up. =O

Mana Lugia December 2nd, 2004 7:18 PM

I thought Bliz's frz was always 10% ._. Although thunder's PAR is like 30% no?

Spike Razzor December 2nd, 2004 7:21 PM

The explaination of this thing has lost me...

P.S., fear the shadow Pogemanz in my sig!

Mana Lugia December 2nd, 2004 7:23 PM

Basically, each person starts with a group of 8 pokemon. They choose 1 of them, and pass the other 7 to the person one after them. Then they choose from the group of 7 that was just passed to them, etc etc until each person has chosen 8 pokemon. then they make a team of 6 with 2 subs for the tourney using the chosen pokemon. Provided the groups are of relatively equal power, the balance should be very good.

That part there is what has lost me ;_;...

Let's take an example.

Players A, B, C are participants

Pool for A: Zapdos, Alakazam, Shuckle, Exploud, Lugia, Mew
Pool for B: Deoxys, Dugtrio, Celebi, Nidoking, Suicune, Mantine
Pool for C: Raticate, Crobat, Golem, Miltank, Electabuzz, Fearow

A: Chooses Mew
B: Chooses Deoxys
C: Chooses Crobat

Pool for B: Zapdos, Alakazam, Shuckle, Exploud, Lugia
Pool for C: Dugtrio, Celebi, Nidoking, Suicune, Mantine
Pool for A: Raticate, Golem, Miltank, Electabuzz, Fearow

And now, B gets the pool of what was left from A, and etc. etc. until all the pools are gone.

OH! Aslong as we get our own custom Ev's and attacks, count me in >=3!

Mana Lugia December 2nd, 2004 8:44 PM

Demonion December 2nd, 2004 10:22 PM
