Organisation of Unofficial Events Section


Recommended Posts

 In order to organize the Unofficial Events section, we bring the thread to discuss unofficial, ask for aid during them, and general contact between players and ofc staff. The section will serve as a place to create and discuss unofficial events. All PokeMMO rules apply to it.


Before posting any series of tournaments, we advise checking this thread to see if no event is ongoing currently and discuss it with players. You will not be stopped by staff members from hosting a tournament, but the majority of players being unhappy with another tournament can give you an estimate of if you can expect players to join it or not.

When posting a new tournament, please use the following standardized structure, proposed by gbwead:

 

 

Events types

 

  • Tournaments
    A tournament is an event that lasts no longer than one day.
  • Championships 
    A championship is an event that lasts over a long period of time and involves players participation multiple times.
  • Series (PSL, World Cup, LCPL, etc.)
    A serie is a championship that had multiple iterations of the championship format. 

 

 

 

Events Titles

When creating your unofficial event, please use the following format for the title:

Spoiler

Tournaments: [Tier] Name of the tournament - Additional description (Schedule)

 

  • [Tier] may refer to one of the four official tiers OU, UU, NU or Doubles and Untiered. [Tier] may also refer to an unofficial tier if that tier is defined clearly somewhere other the event itself. For instance, LC is an official tier defined here[Tier] may also refer to an unofficial tier that is defined in the event itself. In that case, please use [PVP].
  • Name of the tournament is just the name the host chose for the tournament.
  • - Additional description is just additional information a host may want to add to the name of the tournament.
  • (Schedule) is the exact date and time when the tournament is scheduled to be hosted. <Schedule>is the approximate date and time when the tournament is scheduled to be hosted.

 

Championship: [Championship tag] Name of the championship - Additional description (Schedule)

 

  • [Championship tag] refers to the tag used for the hosted championship.
  • Name of the championship is just the name the host chose for the championship.
  • - Additional description is just additional information a host may want to add to the name of the championship.
  • (Schedule) is the exact date and time when the championship is scheduled to be hosted. <Schedule>is the approximate date and time when the championship is scheduled to be hosted.

 

Series: [Serie tag #] Name of the serie Season # - Additional description (Schedule)

 

  • [Serie tag #] refers to the tag used for the hosted serie and the season number for that serie.
  • Name of the serie Season # is just the name the host chose for the serie and the season number for that serie.

  • [PVP] SIA Anniversary - 5 years <August 10th>
    This would be a PVP tournament involving several tiers that is scheduled to be hosted on August 10th approximately.
  • [UU + LC + Untiered] Einstein Tag Team - 40M (July 6th, 10 AM UTC)
    This would be a PVP tournament for 40M where teams of players have to compete in UU, LC and Untiered. The tournament is scheduled to be hosted at exactly 10 AM UTC on July 6th.
  • [PGC] PokeMMO Gym Challenge - General Thread <June 29th to September 18th>
    This would be the general thread of a championship scheduled to be hosted from June 29th to September 18th approximately.
  • [PSL 15] PokeMMO Super League Season 15 - Week 5 (March 6th to March 13th)

    This would be the general thread for the season 15 of the serie PSL scheduled from January 30th to May 1st approximately.

Currently PVE categories will be in the same place as PVP events and we will see how it will work out.  Please mark PVE events as [PVE] and information about the event

 

Thank you @gbweadfor suggestion of format

 

 

Additional information:

 

Please note that certain type of series, like PSL has ongoing traditions of hosts being approved by previous hosts and players. New players who will come and make an "official" PSL might be met with players being unhappy with it.

 

 

Unofficial Events Section Moderators.

 

The section will be moderated by a chosen team of staff members. It currently includes:

Bearminator

KaynineXL

DeusBruno

 

Our role in the events section will be to be aid and guidance. Our tasks involve:
- Closing and moving old threads to the archive

- Moderating discussions in the threads

- When possible, aid the events personally, as refs, commentators, players, or general presence during events.

 

 

Please note that unofficial events are not our priority and we will assist in events only when being available and not busy with other tasks of staff members. Us not taking part in your event doesn't mean we dislike you or your event- other tasks of ours have priority.

A new rule about series/team/tournament accounts:

 

- Any account made to act as a host/mod of the tournament/event/series can be made under the premise that all players who will access the said account will message one of the moderators (currently myself and DeusBruno) in a group message, claiming who will be the accessing the account.

 

We will not reveal this information to the players. 

 

 

An example of this would be the World Cup Host forum account.

 

 

If you have any questions, please PM me.
