The same guy D/C'd yesterday, he was the only guy to D/C on me yesterday.

My battle just D/C'd on turn. Maybe it the server went down or something?
Nah, It just behaves that way sometimes.
Got a lot of those before.
LOL. but shouldn't that give you the upper hand as well? since you know what YOU RNG thus what to expect :P
My record so far in this tourney:
Current Rating: 1673
Battles: 31
Amount of battles lost: 5
D/Cs: 3 or 4
So far so good, I just get so annoyed with those D/Cs. I think I'll start making a list of names who keep D/Cing on me T___T;
But it's fun so far, I owned a lot of noobs xD And won plenty of mediocre and close call matches B]

It makes you wonder if they actually will act on people who disconnect...
Actually the fun part is facing the almost exact same team with the same RNG quality :D It was a fun battle xD
In the rules Nintendo said they'll be excuded from the final ladder, for what it matters to them -.-
I've got 27 matches finished with another 15 DC on me.
But so far i'm still enjoying the experience, it's a format i would never be able to try othewise, and thanks to the tounament finding opponents is pretty fast compared to standard games.
Good luck to everyone who will not DC ;P

This is an open letter to [Trainer Name] from [Location].
Dear [Trainer Name],
I just wanted to take a moment to apologize that things didn't work out between us. I really do regret that for some reason our connection was lost as I was about to win; not sure what that was about! After all, anything can happen in this game and as the cliche goes one should always play to the final whistle. I mean, who knows, maybe [Pokemon] would have held on after eating a hit from that super effective [Attack Name] and things would have turned in your favor after being down [Score]. I'm also sorry that [Under 100% Accuracy Attack Name] didn't land at that timely moment you needed it to, resulting in a competitive advantage for me. Those things do happen from time to time in this game and I guess that's why [Under 100% Accuracy Attack Name] isn't considered 100% accurate. You may also realize in hindsight that attacking [Pokemon] with [Attack Name] may not have been the best move, especially as my [Pokemon] used Protect. Don't fret, though, that could have happened to anyone - it's part of the game! I've made that mistake a time or two myself, in fact. And look on the bright side, at least some things went your way, like that [Luck Based Event/Side Effect], so it wasn't all bad! Anyway, I do hope we get a chance to rematch, [Trainer Name], once your inexplicable internet connection issues are resolved. You were a fun opponent and I know you wouldn't have deliberately disconnected to avoid a loss as from what I hear, they teach class and good sportsmanship in [Location]. Anyway, best of luck to you in the rest of the tournament that has absolutely nothing at stake whether you win or lose. Hope you fare better against your remaining opponents! Again, truly sorry we didn't get to formally finish our match.
Sincerely,
"Carl from Smogon" aka Craig from New Jersey

I've only had 12 actual matches, with 8 DISCONNECTS of battles I was winning. My ranking is currently 1613, although it should be higher than that, with an 11-1 w/l ratio. Has anyone else had this many DCs?
@Carl: I want to personally send that to half of the people online.

Pretty much! It's hard to tell which nature I'm facing when nicknames are disabled. =[
What makes me really happy is the fact that all my hard work is actually being put to use, though!
oh right nicknames xD! oh well at least, as you just said, it's better for them to be used rather than having them lurking into a box forever :)
Does anybody think I should aim for the 1700 mark? xP
After seeing so many identical teams I feel like I wanna go back to VGC 2012 style :3
I've lost count of all the disconnects as I'm sure my team has a knack of pissing others off. Too bad, pokemon is serious business. You had at least a week to prepare. This is like taking a test, you pass or fail, win or lose.
I think we have to blame GF for this - if DCing doesn't hurt them, or you - there's no reason not to do it.
Magic the Gathering "Arena" has a similar format - play any number of people, get 1 point for each loss, 2 for tie, 3 for winning. Incentive to play others even if you lose.
Ah I played you then too. I'm MSankey from Saskatchewan, Canada. I made the team you're using when VGC 11 rules were just announced :|
you better save the vid.
Lol thats me :P what is your OT/which hax?
I'm 28-2 :'( I lost to a German and I miselected a poke and lost 22 pts, now I only get 4-6 pts a game x.x
Oh and I met Ash from Kuwait and Carlos :D both DC'ed :3
