How much notice will we get for the events? I'd like to know what I'm getting myself into 🙈
This thread is intended to be your notice that we are running games over that two week period! The exact dates and times of game sessions will go live on May 8th and it is up to you to tell us which ones you want to participate in. So essentially that's down to you: you could give yourself ten minutes notice or a week!


Two questions:

1. Does it matter if you don't have all the games? I've only got about half of the ones listed.

2. Let's say I do sign up, but something IRL comes up (IDK, work gets super busy), and I'm not able to play as much as I would've liked. Are there any... IDK, consequences for that? Like, would I be seriously inconveniencing other people or something?
1. Not a problem - I don't have all of the games either! You don't even need to have any games to participate in this event. You get to choose which game sessions you want to participate in.

2. No consequences at all. You'll be working in large teams of minimum 50 members each and naturally the majority of them will have school and/or work to take into account as well. If you sign-up for a game session and realise on the day that you might not be able to take part it'd be polite to shoot the game host a message to say you can't make it (you don't need to tell us the reason why) just so that they can offer that spot to someone else.


question! it’s basically competing in online games against other people to earn points for your team, correct? like winning battles in pokémon or races in mario kart? and i just have to be active enough to earn points? if so, i’ll definitely be able to work around and earn points!
For competitive, yes, this is exactly how it works! Meanwhile in friendly matches you simply need to participate. For example you could come in twelfth in every MK8 race and still walk away with as many points for your team as the player who came in first.


I think I’ve decided to opt out. As fun as this sounds, I only own animal crossing and I’ll be busy all week. Don’t want to get on a team that is super competitive and hinder their progress. Good luck to everyone who is opting in!
As I've said to a few others, there isn't really a way to hinder or sabotage your team. People are welcome to sign up and help out as little or as much as they like. Based on the number of members who have opted in we are looking at each team having a minimum of 50 members, so every team is bound to have a mix of competitive and more laidback users.
 
@Vrisnem I have a question about the Pokemon competitive events if I may. Would be allowed to use rental teams for the tournament or do we need to use our own pokemon?
 
You will be required to use your own Pokémon for this event.
I see, do you know what the format will be so that we can start preparing? There's tons of different formats floating around these days.

We will be going with a double-elimination tournament format. Team rules will be identical to those outlined in this thread except we will also be allowing Pokémon included in the Isle of Armor and Crown Tundra Pokédexes.
 
I'd like to apologize ahead of time to whichever team I'm on. I'm old, my hands are crap & my best gaming days are in the past. I'm not sure exactly how much help I'll actually be but I'm going to try my absolute best. I'm also going to root like He** for our team so hopefully I can at least boost moral.

Good luck to all!

Quick follow up question if I may. is Gigantmaxing as the mechanic allowed? I believe so because it just says no Gmax forms but I wanted to double check before I starting team building. Thanks!
 
Yep, even if you have none of them you can still participate for your team. How exactly will be posted when the event starts I assume :)
This goes for people that are banned from playing games from staff too? (Which is me of course.)

Yes! If a member's ban only applies to playing video games, rather than a full event ban, then they are still allowed to opt-in to a team and participate in the other aspects of the event (details coming May 8th!).
 
Sweet! Well then, I was a fool for opting out.

I hope those on my team better get their competitive spirit juice cranking up, I wish you the best.
 
I've got another Pokemon question. The linked tournament states that Legendaries are forbidden, but does that include ALL Legendary Pokemon, or only Legendaries that are considered Uber? I know that in certain situations, Legendaries like the birds and regis are allowed, but Uber Legendaries like Mewtwo and such are banned.

This rule applies to all legendaries.
