    Thanks and sorry to everyone who understand and spent time to answer for me (love u @NikhilR), I was tired only by trying to understand how you can actually defend the chinese team if you're aware of the situation and unbiased, or being the chinese guy and come here to justify how lame you have been with shitty comparaisons/claim i called them out cowards before they rejected when its dumb af and totally wrong so i kinda gave up and wanted to see what happens in the end. I atleast wanted to clear here few stuff i saw, you can believe me or not for whatever reason i don't care much at this point but i had no net issues before the duel and i started getting important freezes during midgame when it became hard to play, I said in normal chat "zzz j'ai des freeze" I was hoping to end the duel before timing out. Then after the duel I said he can't get away with the win like this, offered him a rematch, no answer, then finnaly said they refuse in pm, when someone asked if there was a rematch in normal they all said no so i started to get a bit mad and call them cowards (fact), not before. I could have ended him by doing anything it was still won for me, even if he manage to somehow kill timbur, scarf gastly ends it with 2 sludge at the end. Well i think thats it, i offered him a more than reasonable way to deal with it by a rematch, he refused, to me he doesn't even deserve a rematch anymore but take your decision as unfair as it could be. I'll take anything to have a chance of not making my team lose like this and if you let them get the unfair win then its also fine, can't be more disgusted at this point. edit: I gave a rematch to someone who dc'd during my last psl, he had a better early game but i still told him I want to rematch move by move, yet he seems to support chinese's case, i guess it can always get more disgusting actually

  5. The PokeMMO Teambuilding Lab *insert sick artwork here* (anybody?) What is this?! After browsing smogon and falling in love with their teambuilding lab threads i wanna test the waters and see if we can have something like that for MMO as well. Basically we open a thread for every tier; OU, UU, NU (maybe also Dubs and LC if enough people show interest) and have a small council that enjoys theorymoning to build teams around pokemon people suggest. If we like the outcome we take that team and list it as a sample team below, so new people can take those blueprints, breed their mons and slowly work their way into tiers they didnt know before. Why? I want to implement some kind of reward system, possibly based on donations, but mainly to have fun building teams, helping some noobs out and helping to promote lower tiers. UU- and NU matchmaking are dead right now, but maybe if we help new people to get started lower tiers we can promote those. Maybe that´d help making PSL great again as well. Who? I think it´d be best if we had a small council for each tier. That council would consist of a host that ensures things are going their way and a few council members. This point can probably still be discussed; "do we elect hosts?"; "who´s gonna be in and who decides that?" and so on and so forth. Specifics, for now thats just a general idea and can be altered. Think general moderation should suffice, if that isnt the case we´ll see what can be done. Rules: (just gonna copy pasta smogon for now, feel free to hit me up with suggestions if you think somethings lacking) Have a one-paragraph description (3-4 lines should suffice) with the set or core you want us to build around and a slight idea of what kind of team you want the end result to be. Also, actually have the set(s) you want us to use in your post. This makes the process of building teams faster for all of us here. Do not post asking us to make use of unviable Pokemon. This is not a competition to see how good we are at team building; this is us trying to educate people about what is good in the meta and how to build effective teams. If you're requesting a core, make sure that you provide good reasoning as to why that core is worth building around in the current metagame. Even if only one Pokemon is to be built around, it must be viable enough in the current metagame to warrant receiving the time and effort of our staff. We reserve the right to decline any request that we do not feel meets the Lab's quality standards. Each user is allowed one request per week. If any user is found requesting multiple teams within that timeframe, the offending posts will be deleted and the user may see further punishment. Please remember that these teams are first drafts and, as such, will not be perfect. Edit them as you please. That being said, builders must be willing to take constructive criticism regarding their teams and those who point out the flaws of a builder's team should contribute to the team's improvement in a constructive manner so that the builders and the clients can grow as players. Do not flame people for asking for a certain Pokemon or for being unable to build around something themselves. On that note, you are free (and highly encouraged) to suggest and post the changes or critiques you've made to already posted teams that you feel improve them. However, you are not allowed to post your own teams here to have us modify them. We're here to build new teams, not modify older ones. If you want your own teams critiqued and modified, post them in the RMT forum, not here. If people didn´t find the time to build something for you yet, please be patient. We have less active comp players than smogon, so things might take their time. If you wish to become a member of the Lab staff, please send the hosts a forum PM containing an application. Bear in mind that demand for builders will fluctuate based on the volume of requests and the activity level of the Lab's current staff. Hosts: OU: Zymogen UU: Pachima NU: DrButler LC: YettoDie Doubles: Zigh PokeMMO OU Teambuilding Lab PokeMMO UU Teambuilding Lab PokeMMO NU Teambuilding Lab PokeMMO LC Teambuilding Lab PokeMMO Doubles Teambuilding Lab Announcements The Lab is currently accepting builder applications. The Lab currently accepts requests for teams in the following commonly-played MMO metagames: OU, UU, NU, LC & Doubles

    I remember this tournament. We played in finals and you had nearly guaranteed win over me in the finals and you disconnected. That's why I immediately announced to the host that I will accept a rematch if Nik comes back within a reasonable time. There was no forced rematch by the host of the tournament and I could have claimed the victory right there. I didn't. It was my decision, and rather my initiative to announce that I want the rematch for which Bluejim agreed to. This is a different situation because the opposing player does not want a rematch, and claims the win by the timer. And so far, I have stated that as a host I cannot enforce a rematch demanded by the player who lost by time. If both parties wanted a rematch, I would allow it without a question. That's why comparing these two cases does not work. Edit: I removed my second paragraph as I'm unsure what was your intended message even with this comparison.

    I didn't see that. You're free to fuck off while I do what I want. The rematch offer is based on sportmanship, so I have no fucking idea what you're even talking about, just mind your own business.

    I am the captian of China b. I can understand what your thoughts is, but I don't accept your attitude. Everyone wants victory, I know. So do I. If in this battle my teammate's time is over, and the reason is that he is thinking, will you agree to rematch? As we know, in that battle there is still no obvious winner, why you need rematching after your time is over? So If we agree to rematch, this is our sympathy. And If we disagree, this is also our choice, and we have played in our all effort to express the respect, I think that's enough. I want to win, and your action is equal to applying for rematch after failure, saying that you are not in your best and you think it's unfair. Sorry, this is world champion. And you still have chance. If you don't know there is a limit of time, I have nothing to say. That's all. Good luck for next battle, everyone.

    when the ppl won with hax, are they give a rematch?, Ik that feels bad when u have the win and lost for other factor that u can't control, but demand a rematch or a victory is wrong if ur opponent accept cause he understands the consequences it is his decission, the hosts just try to be impartial and they don't responsible that one of the players don't prepare as should be, he could postpone the match another day if he has troubles with the internet/server/weather/etc, also I proposed to Roxas a CaptainsCouncil if the ppl want just to know what opinion have each country about a specific problem and not only the ppl that comment in the forum.

    I would defend the guy regardless of whom he was. Player- hosted events are imo always about sportsmanship, we are supposed to have fun, these events aren't staff- hosted events with strict rules where the winner is declared right away in such situations. Here we can turn to hosts and ask them for a possible solution in such situation. Unfortunately the only way I see this problem resolved is through a rematch which would be accepted by a winning player (in this example MinGKA), if he doesn't accept the rematch, then sorry- formally, he did win the match after all. You did the right thing and I would do the same thing, even if your ign would be doublej, because that's how things should look like from competitive perspective. It doesn't matter that someone doesn't follow the same path, you should be proud of yourself for being a good sport in this example. Without good will from the second player I don't think there's anything that can be done. Mind you, though- in this situation, such lack of sportsmanship will hurt that guy more than a loss to his team ever would. Badge of a scum will be permanently pinned on him Btw, about the rematch thingy- there was a time where I disconnected during an official tournament back in 2015 when the officials were hosted in Silph. I think it was a monotype or STAB tournament. Yours one and only @NikhilR decided himself to give me a rematch and asked staff to make this happen, earning himself eternal respect from not only me but also all the spectators who were there. Just food for thoughts for you, chinese folks.

    The credibility about this tournament and decisions dont depend only about this match, Youalready gave me the reason, he had problemas, delay and other stuff so Why he played the match like this? Plz dont come here to tell about credibility When u enter to this tournament and participate on it I think everybody is able to say "I have good net i will play today" I think anyway that decision is took. I saw an argument about sportmanship but they called coward to the chinesse guy, u are saying about credibility but u are saying we try to fool somebody like I was trying to make lose on purpose france. Please dont come here with that kind of things

    yes is fair to me or you, but also is fair the opponent concede the rematch u can't demand it, the chinese didn't use a cheat to get the win, it's his decission u can respect him or not.

    Other than the timer rule, what is the other official rule that you're following? I can't say with 100% certainty, but I know Axoa is not dumb enough to accept a game when having internet issues. Sometimes things happen after the game has happened, like power cuts, rain or whatever. Delaying the game is not always a favorable solution since it could also lead to possible activity win requests. The best way to deal with these two is to modify the rules. There's a difference between pokemon showdown and smogon. Also, your statement is just completely wrong, as I pulled this from the SPL thread: https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/smogon-premier-league-x-week-3.3646245/ (Shameless plug, watch your Indian Prince play giara for W3 of SPL on Sunday 2 PM EST on their smogtour server I totally understand that decisions like this aren't easy, but to me it's very clear in what way to decide the game. I just don't think any competitor who had literally 0% chance of winning the game should be able to claim victory.

    The precedent in PokeMMO since the introduction of the timer is that if your timer runs out, you are declared as the losing player. Since we didn't make any rule that "we could analyze timer losses if they were wins by playing", the only correct way to rule as far as I see is to follow the PokeMMO precedent, which is that a player who runs out of time loses the game. If Smogon or someone else doesn't see the timer that way, they're free to have that interpretation but seeing how timer in PokeMMO goes, this is the only interpretation I have from this situation. Lots of common games (such as chess) will declare the player whose time has ran out as the losing player, even if anyone with half of a brain cell could tell that said player would win. The way I see it is that this is game dependent issue and I unfortunately feel that PokeMMO so far has followed the chess-like standard more than Smogon-like standard. The other three hosts may have a different opinion but this is going to be my personal stance to this matter and it's not going to change for me. It's a shit situation and probably doesn't feel fair but it's the only correct call in this situation, as far as I'm concerned.

  34. The PokeMMO UU Teambuilding Lab *insert sick UU artwork here* Hello, everyone. Throughout our time in UU, we have noticed that many newer players struggle to build effective teams. In an effort to rectify that, we will join forces with several experienced UU players to host the UnderUsed Teambuilding Lab. Here, users can post Pokemon sets or cores that they would like the Lab staff to build a team around. The Lab staff may then reply with their team and the team building process they used so that the client can see our thought processes, and, as a result, better develop their ability to build their own teams in the future. Also, in an effort to improve all of us and get some quality discussion for the thread, we're going to propose that you guys take the builds we create, play around 5 games on the ladder with them at a decent rank, and if you aren´t pleased come back here to talk about how to expand your teambuilding from there. Sample teams are to be collected in the PokeMMO Teambuilding Megathread. Rules: Have a one-paragraph description (3-4 lines should suffice) with the set or core you want us to build around and a slight idea of what kind of team you want the end result to be. Also, actually have the set(s) you want us to use in your post. This makes the process of building teams faster for all of us here. Do not post asking us to make use of unviable Pokemon. This is not a competition to see how good we are at team building; this is us trying to educate people about what is good in the meta and how to build effective teams.

Even if only one Pokemon is to be built around, it must be viable enough in the current metagame to warrant receiving the time and effort of our staff. We reserve the right to decline any request that we do not feel meets the Lab's quality standards. Each user is allowed one request per week.

    If MinGKA doesn't want to rematch, w.e , but at the very least could him/her or anyone from the China B team officially decline the rematch? It's one thing to be too scared to face Axoa, but cmon an answer here or on discord is not that hard.

    the tiers that each player put in the inscription, only serves to help the captain of the team to mount his lineup, everyone can play in any tier if the team is in agreement. my team only has one player LC, but during the season we will train so that more people can play in this tier
