Feel free to suggest anything! Nothing is set in stone at the moment.


What is a Community Day?

Community Day is a get-together that's held on the PC Battle Server all day (but it's not exclusive to battling). Tournaments are a mainstay in Community Day, while other activities such as iSketch, Pretend You're Xyzzy, Mafia, Diplomacy, and the like can be hosted during CommDay as well. Basically, Community Day is just about having fun battling and chatting while the server is at its peak of activity. If you would like, you may suggest other activities in this thread that we can do during Community Day. Also, keep in mind that Community Day is meant to be a very laid-back event, so really anyone can participate. There's no pressure on whether you win or lose in a tournament, or if you don't join one at all. We're all doing this to have a good time.

When is the upcoming Community Day?

Community Day starts at 7 AM (UTC -4 / EST) on Saturday, October 19th and ends at midnight. That is 7 AM in eastern USA; 12 PM in the UK; 7 PM in Western Australia; 9 PM in eastern Australia; and 4 AM in western USA. Just so you know, you don't need to be there at the launch; Community Day lasts all day so that everyone can participate regardless of their time zone.

How do I sign up?

There's no signing up required. All you have to do is show up on the PC Battle Server during the times we have listed in this thread. You might want to prepare teams for each tournament you plan on joining though. The tournament themes will be listed in this thread for that reason. Additionally, if you were online during this Community Day, you will receive the bronze emblem below. You can also get the silver or gold emblems if you've already participated in one or two Community Days, respectively.

(New emblems may be made shortly.)


What are the tournament rules, themes, and schedule?

All you have to do is follow BC's General Battle Rules. The ban lists for the tournament themes below can be found here. All tournaments are "Best of One" (participants battle each other once to determine a match-up) unless stated otherwise. Don't know what tiers are or need usage statistics? Use our Guides & Resources.

PC Battle Server themes
1. Seasonal Random Battle (Read this article for more information.)
2. NU (moveset analyses)
3. Singles or Doubles Random Battle (randomly generated teams)
4. UU (moveset analyses)
5. Random Battle 1-vs-1 (randomly generated teams)
6. OU (standard) (moveset analyses)
7. High, Medium, or Low Tier Random Battle (randomly generated teams)
8. LC Random Battle (randomly generated teams)
...then repeat

Wi-Fi themes
There will not be any Wi-Fi tournaments unless there's enough people that want them.

We will go from the first theme listed and make our way down. The Wi-Fi tournaments will most likely run at the same time as the server tournaments. The orders may change during Community Day, but it's not likely. There is also a chance that we'll use other themes if there's a demand for them.

I'll try to remember to be there this time. I'm glad it's on a Saturday, so I don't have to worry about homework. You can see me as Slayr231 there. Yeah, really creative, I know.

For some reason, I haven't been able to load our server during the last couple of days... so, unfortunately, I'm not exactly sure if I'll have the chance to make it to this week's Community Day. :( I'll still try, though! If I'm able to load up the server, then I'll be using the name Hello Delcatty.

Community Day XY, huh?

I'll probably be there if I'm not busy that day. I was present at the last Community Day for only half the day since I tried to pull an all-nighter and fell asleep a couple of hours after it started. This one sounds like it'll be pretty exciting, so all the more reason to attend. o:

It's Pretend You're Xyzzy (though they're basically the same thing). I'll definitely make sure we play plenty of that. B)

By the way, I added LC Randbats to the list.

I know it's a dumb question but is it 6th gen or 5th gen in which we'll be battling NU, OU and that sort of stuff?
Gen 5, since PS' Gen 6 is very incomplete right now and no proper formats are available for it yet. I might do a Gen 6 Ubers tournament, though.
