    Is it just me or is every one of the battles a BMGer is in with a PE2Ker. Lol, just great.

    Anyways before Pidge gets here I am going to make picks. I hope I am wrong, but these seem like the safest choices, minus one.

    Monbrey vs. Stinky (I think Monbrey will pull a miracle out. Even if I think Stinky is the better experienced.)
    Synthesis
    Haze vs. Arceusfan (Haze is E4. And just better prepared.)
    Bumblebee vs. WTP (WTP is a pretty cool guy. eh beats people and doesnt afraid of anything.)
    Pidge vs. Acetrainer (Pidge is pretty damn good in my books.)
    Near vs. Leman (I've heard stories of Leman's majesty...)
    Neonsands vs. Shinies (Shinies is Pro.)
    Nyurgh vs mubz (Nyurgh has better mons and more experience.)

    Yeah, I did pick against myself. What of it?

    I'm predicting the same as Neonsands, but Stinky over Monbrey. Sticking with the rule that seniority wins. No fun because there aren't any too close match ups. :(

    And Jr, I feel like you could of handled the incompleted matches better, and looked at it through a case-by-case scenario on who showed more effort into trying to find their opponent. i.e. everyone should post in the thread that he/she PM'd/VM'd his/her opponent to try to find a time. If the other battler didn't do the same, he would be disqualified, but I don't think anyone last round really did that. However, if neither battler really tried to find the other, double disqualification is fine.

    The above part is really complete up to you, but the next part shouldn't really be up for discussion.

    If for some reason, you do decide to allow one extra person, then Synthesis should battle him. If you allow two or more more people, it gets a bit complicated because if you want to keep true random match ups, you would have to redo ALL the match ups, otherwise it wouldn't be random if you just redistribute the people who didn't complete their matches against each other. What that means is that nobody should really be doing their matches yet until we find out if more people are in this round or not. Of course, waiting is pointless if Jr. for sure isn't allowing anyone else.

    Oh yeah, and I see you didn't ban legendaries.

    Yeah, I talk too much...

    * Monbrey vs. Stinky

    Oh and Arceusfan, if you see me on AIM and I'm away, just IM me anyway. If you want to set up an actual date that's fine too, just PM me or I'll do it tomorrow.

    Well thats a lie, there are several people who can attest to my activity. Also you forgot to mention that I was the one who set up the time and you showed up like 2 hours later than you said you would and didn't IM me about battling at all. Also I saw you on several times while I was on and you made no attempt to set up a battle. In fact I'm fairly certain you tried to just get through the round without battling me and winning an activity role. So ya. I'm fine with a double elimination since there's only one spot needed and I think someone from one of the other matches deserves it more than both of us.

    :'x No, you got me wrong. Last week was an extremely busy time for me, so I would just leave my compy on and stay on AIM, then come home and go on the computer real quick and leave again (like how I was on when you IM'd me, then I replied 2 hours later saying I had to be somewhere soon, then never came back.) I'm not trying to go into the next round, I can see you are active, but I don't see you on AIM atm, even though you're here. What I usually do is go on my computer, look to see who's on AIM, check facebook, maybe check URPG, read updates on Gen V, chat to some people, then leave. Mainly because I had places to be. My AIM on this new computer is very screwy, like it lags terrible in chats, or when I have multiple windows open, and it'll log me off and back on again without me at my compy (and since I leave it constantly on it does it a lot) and I'll come back to windows of people IMing at 4AM, or 1PM, inviting me to chats, even though I'm sleeping or a school.

    I'm not trying to get into the next round, I'm just complaining, :'P (and even if one of us could go on, I wouldn't want to, because I'm not that active atm, and don't have time for it, you are [and yea, I just checked your reffing log so I know you're more active than me] and in all fairness, you are the most likely person who would've won that battle :'/ )

    So sorry I got you kicked out, my bad, but I'm not trying to get back in at all.


    EDIT:

    Ops, just read this. I agree with Pidge, except for the fact that is bolded, because Marshy did do that and I never had the time :'P. I think Masrshy should battle Synthesis in this round, just to make it a little more fair (again, my bad Marshy :'x )

    I was watching for JoM on AIM but he was never on(or at least not when I was)and never contacted me to set anything up :/ I sent him a VM on PE2K a day or two before the deadline but got no response.

    Yeah, me and Iridium have totally contrasting timezones, as I said in the other thread, so that's why we didn't battle.

    If that counts for anything.

    So neither of you tried.

    Jr. told me he isn't allowing anyone else in (not even Marshy). What a nut job. @[email protected]

    GBA Tournament Battle

    AIM Battle
    6v6 Revo
    Helds Allowed
    All Clauses On
    Clear Skies/Standard Arena

    Nyurgh vs. mubz
    Aerodactyl, Gyarados, Garchomp and Tyranitar vs. Swampert, Electivire, Venusaur, Tyranitar, Infernape and Dragonite

    Aero set up Stealth Rocks in true Aerolead style before being pwned by Swampert. Gyarados then came in and got 2 Dragon Dance, allowing him to completely sweep two thirds of mubz's team before finally succumbing to Life Orb recoil. Garchomp then smashed Nape's face in, and due to being choiced into Earthquake allowed T-Tar to finish the fight against Dragonite.

    Nyurgh wins and gets $2,000, moves on
    mubz loses and gets $1,000, is out
    I reffed and should get $3,000 (I assume)

    $4,000​

    Really? You seem pretty serious here:
    Waste of time for shits and "lulz", I'd say.

    Whatsoever, the fact that you guys are just now beginning (for the most part) to say how you contacted each other after you've been disqualified makes me think you were all just trying to get through based on your activity. Hohoho, aren't I a smartypants?

    Continue with matches as the first post states.

    edit- oh and yeah, pay is 3k for refs, 2k for winner, 1k for loser

    Okay, my point was that you should of told us the proper protocol to follow if we can't battle our opponent.

    Anyway I'm VM-ing my opponent after this post.

    Wow, really? Did you not read, or only read parts of that? The first post was me complaining for shits and lulz, the second posts was me being serious because I was being called out on something I would never do, and then apologized because I obviously offended someone somehow from my first post, which was me complaining for shits and lulz. That third post was me saying my first post was me complaining... for shits and lulz, which if I have my math right... let's see... 1 comes before two... and two goes after one... WAIT OMG! AN EPIPHANY: being sarcastic in first post, called out, then serious in second post. Don't rearrange my posts because that's not how they work, you read them in order. Now AGAIN, I don't care that I'm out, and frankly I don't want back in, so stop saying that was my 'plan' this entire time.

    Wow, people overreacted a lot more than I thought they would... in fact, they overreacted more than they should :/

    I apologize again about that ^^;

    Also about this, I never really intended to get back into the tournament at all and it was only other people who suggested I receive the empty spot. So maybe someone isn't so observant after all

    Don't, because that was at least understandable.
