Thanks to MiniArchitect for the logo!
Tournament Rules:
  • General tournament rules and regulations can be found here.
  • Smogon Classic rules can be read here
  • Standard GSC OU
  • Best of three, single elimination.
  • Battles should take place on Pokemon Online. If both players agree, Pokémon Showdown may be used to play.
  • I like replays, you should post them!
  • Do not make baseless activity posts, get in contact with your opponent and report missed times / scheduling issues only.

Identity

I expect many battles to be completed under alts and I expect many battles to be completed on other servers to prevent scouting. These kind of factors are pretty bad for tournament security, and thus I will make this clear: If I hear any whispers of identity theft (battling as someone you are not) or proxy battling (helping someone else battle through pm) I will not be pleased and I will take severe actions.

Scouting

Next, I do not want to hear anything about counterteaming, at all. It is the silliest thing I have ever heard, any battler worth their marbles has more than one team. Do not complain about it. I also don't want to hear about any forceful scouting, whether it be spying on another teams irc channel or following your opponent around on PO. There is a difference between "ipl is known for using stall" and "let me follow ipl around all day to watch all his battles since I am his opponent". I expect a lot of the former and none of the latter.

With that said, I give permission to all battlers to ask any person spectating their battle to leave if they do not want them watching. However, given the fact that this is the big stage, I am sure a lot of people want to watch, so don't be too mean.

Timer Clause

As for taking long between moves, if your opponent asks you to hurry up, please oblige. If you are doing a damage calc for a key turn that is one thing, but prolonging every move is suspicious and annoying. Don't do it. Furthermore, Battle Timeout is a rule for a reason. If you run out of time, you lose, simple as that. It does not matter what your opponent says. Do not battle if you think you will have to leave mid battle, and instead reschedule for a better time. Timing out is still classified as a loss, unless the reason for timing out is a disconnection. If there is any suspicion that a disconnect was carried out deliberately to take advantage of this rule in any way, we reserve the right to exercise a harsh punishment.

Disconnections

If a player disconnects and either player contends that they could still win, the optimal solution is to recreate the exact situation the disconnection occurred at during the battle. If it is agreed between players that this is not feasible due to unreasonable battle length, highly improbable circumstances, or some other reason, the player who did not disconnect may choose to rematch with either the same teams or (the option to use) new teams. Timing out is still classified as a loss, unless the reason for timing out is a disconnection. If there is any suspicion that a disconnect was carried out deliberately to take advantage of this rule in any way, we reserve the right to exercise a harsh punishment. Do not do it.

I know that was a lot to read, but it is all necessary for me to have posted here so everyone can see it in the case of a dispute. I don't want any confusion or any problems.

Jellicent => Why did Soldier get the win over myself ? He missed the scheduled time and never recontacted me after that.
You never said anything about him missing the time, nor did you try to contact him during or after the scheduled time. All I could tell from VMs was that you two planned to play over a week ago and nothing came of that, so I flipped it.

I did http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/gsc-cup-i-round-1.3537667/page-4#post-6213365 though it's true I didn't said anything about the missed time. I was at that time on both the server he's often in, smogtours and frenchtime. And of course I didn't try to contact him after the scheduled time: you miss the time, you contact, it's called common courtesy.
I understand your decision though so I won't insist. Not like I care anymore anyway.
 
won 2-1 via 2 snorlax dittos (identical sets both times lol).

also apparently PS treats sleep like it's gen 6, hidden power + agility is illegal on scizor, and I can't run meditate RS machamp on the veridion viridion server.
-rip baton pass, the dream :[

edit: bellyzard would've needed crits or flinches btw since I was at full health with +3 or +4. Earthquake does a bit over half to unboosted lax. Still lucky winning the lax dittos tho.

Confirmed. Third one was horrible with his Curselax getting the Sleep Talks right, mine always Rest having full HP, then being CHed, and then failing moves to try to disable it x_x I had one last roll to try with Belly Drum Zard but his Restalk again give him what he needed.
