Scheduling

Scheduling should be done on Smogon Profile walls, plain and simple:​
  • If there is communication on only one user's behalf, the win will go to them. Feel free to call activity in this thread beforehand​
  • If there is a very healthy back and forth regarding potential times and one user is a no-show, a manager may take the opportunity to sub out the no-show competitor; if this is not done, the user that showed up responsibly will be awarded the win.​
TL;DR: Post on your opponent's Smogon wall, schedule your matches, and be reliable. If you can't play for any reason, let your manager know so they can sub you out ASAP.

Use these posts as a place to initiate discussion about bo1 or bo3 as well (or bo5 if you're insane like that)!


Sportsmanship

Exhibitions of unsportsmanlike conduct with regards to the Almost Any Ability Premier League will be met with an infraction at the discretion of the OMPL host/OM mods. This is unlikely to include interactions within a team's private chat unless there is reason found to make an exception. This rule is meant to protect other users from being publicly flamed/bashed/provoked by another competitor for the duration of and following the tournament.

All players must complete their matches by the given deadline. Any incomplete matches by that time will be subject to an activity decision (MAKE SURE YOU POST ON YOUR OPPONENT'S WALL); otherwise, it will be a deadgame. All matches should ideally be done on your most notable alt (the one you registered for OMPL with) to avoid confusion and all match replays must be saved and posted in this thread.


Substitutions & Lineups
Managers, if you wish to make any substitutions, you must post here tagging both the player you're subbing out, the player you're subbing in, the manager and assistant manager of the opposing team, the substitute's opponent, and all of the hosts (UT, goldmason, Rex ). This is to assure that everyone is in-the-loop and that the OP is updated accordingly to reflect the new match-up.

Managers, when you send in lineups, please send it in with the tier and Smogon username of each player fully written out for ease of transcription.

If a player misses a scheduled time, managers have either 30 minutes or 20 minutes after they're pinged in OMcord to have a subsitute online and ready to play.

:linoone-galar: The Looming Lioones (3) vs (5) The Ursa Train :ursaluna-bloodmoon:
SV: GhastlyPixie vs Kinetic - GhastlyPixie tried to copy me but unfortunately they can't copy my skill + they bolded against my player so I hate them
SV: matte vs Betticus IV - not been too convinced by betticus and I hope my bro matter can finish the season is positive (his team is gonna be out by the end of the week anyway)
SV: Gambit vs Fragments - Gambit didn't convince me at all
Ubers: RL vs Codename C.A.T - he defeated the Ubers goat (although with MBounce fish - ban it guys) so he's on a streak
UU: BoingK vs Tbp24 - BoingK feared the WINX CLUB team and tpb is the goat - no match
Doubles: ValiantValerie vs NinjaSnapple - idk it's doubles guys but i've been told ninja is good at doubles
NatDex: Dead by Daylight vs Kayzn - I'd wish Kayzn lose so I'd be the only one in 5-0 (watch me lose anyway) but unfortunately I can't say I've been impressed by DbD games
SS: Les2BG vs xdRudi.exe - Les2BG has been quite ok in SS (although he forgets to look at items sometimes) and with another solid team he can do it

:rayquaza-mega: The Radiant Rayquazas (6.5) vs (1.5) The Psycho Psyducks :psyduck:
SV: feen vs Mok3s - feen better
SV: Glory vs Iride - Glory better
SV: Leroipolux1 vs hardik2105 - I don't rate any of them high and don't know them enough so ehh idk
Ubers: Fc vs Fissure - Ubers goat won't lose again
UU: Ren vs iPetBigfoot - all time goat will do it again (if he doesn't cancer bc bro wdym you're playing THREE times I thought you were retired)
Doubles: zoe vs zee - ok so mf Atha told me I couldn't play doubles bc our player (goat) wanted to face zoe BUT ZOE IS NOT PLAYING US so FUCK YOU ATHA ? though zoe is the best doubles player I've seen played (ive watched like 3 players) and will win
NatDex: Pokemh vs Shadow079 - wasn't convinced at all by Pokemh games so i'm gonna trust shadow
SS: luisin vs damflame 3 - mhmhmh luisin hasn't been doing too well but I wasn't impressed by damflame last games so I trust luisin more
 
Simple playoff paths:

Charizzards: already in
Psyducks: already in
Ursa Train: win or tie and in
Dhelmise: win or tie and in
Linoones: win and in
Rayquazas: no simple path (but not eliminated)

If the Dhelmise win or tie, everything is simple; they're in, and the Ursa Train or Linoones are in based on the results of their series. Everything past here assumes the Dhelmise lose.

If the Dhelmise lose and the Ursa Train and Linoones tie, the final two playoff teams will be the Ursa Train and the Linoones.

If the Dhelmise lose and the Ursa Train / Linoones series is decisive, the winner of the Ursa Train / Linoones is in and things come down to differential. This is also the path that allows the Rayquaza into the mix, as they can now enter the picture.

If the Dhelmise and Linoones lose and the Rayquaza win, the Rayquaza are in.

If the Dhelmise and Linoones lose and Rayquaza do not win, it comes down to differential and the head-to-head result was a tie. The Linoones need two net wins to force a tie.

If the Dhelmise and Ursa Train lose and the Rayquaza win, the Dhelmise are eliminated and it comes down to differential between the Ursa Train and Rayquaza (the head-to-head was a tie). The Rayquaza need three net wins to force a tie.

If the Dhelmise and Ursa Train lose and the Rayquaza do not win, it comes down to differenetial and the Ursa Trail hold the head-to-head tiebreaker. The Dhelmise need three net wins to qualify, otherwise the Ursa Train do.

There are no three-way tiebreaker paths remaining :tada:
 
AAAPL III Team Playoffs Qualifying Requirements
Note: All use of "OR" and "/" means "AND/OR" (inclusive or). Exclusive or will be used as "one of"
Note2: DNQ = Do Not Qualify, X+ means at least X
Note3: Using something like X+ wins means just their wins in their matchup, while X+ more wins means compared to the team being qualified (e.g. For X's analysis, Y 2+ more wins means Y at least 2 more wins than X, not necessarily paired vs each other)
Note4: Assuming no deadgames

Current Standings: W-T-L (Score) | Diff
:Charizard: 4-0-0 (8) | 14
:Psyduck: 3-0-1 (6) | 4
:Ursaluna-Bloodmoon: 1-1-2 (3) | 0
:Dhelmise: 1-1-2 (3) | -4
:Linoone-Galar: 1-1-2 (3) | -8
:Rayquaza-Mega: 0-1-3 (1) | -6
The guaranteed qualification threshold right now is 5 points (typically 6). This is because :Ursaluna-Bloodmoon: play :Linoone-Galar:, so only one can hit 5 points, so 5 points at worst case is 4th place.

:Charizard:
Have secured PO qualification by week 4, and also realistically securing first seed outside of suffering a massive loss while :Psyduck: get a massive win.
:Psyduck:
Have secured PO qualification by week 4, and also realistically locked into second seed, outside of getting a massive win while :Charizard: get a massive loss.
:Ursaluna-Bloodmoon:
Win - Qualify.

Tie - Qualify. Since they will always be above :Linoone-Galar: and :Rayquaza-Mega:

Lose - Losing puts them behind :Linoone-Galar:, so they need to be higher than the other 2 teams. DNQ if any of:
:Dhelmise: Win, Tie, or Lose 3-5 while :Ursaluna-Bloodmoon: Lose 0-8, :Rayquaza-Mega: Win with 4+ more wins
Tiebreak with:
:Dhelmise: Lose with 2 more wins, :Rayquaza-Mega: Win with 3 more wins
:Dhelmise:
Win - Qualify.

Tie - Qualify. Since they will always be above :Rayquaza-Mega: and exactly one of :Ursaluna-Bloodmoon: and :Linoone-Galar:

Lose - They will be passed by one of :Ursaluna-Bloodmoon: and :Linoone-Galar:, so they need to be higher than the other 2 teams. DNQ if any of:
:Ursaluna-Bloodmoon: and :Linoone-Galar: Tie, :Ursaluna-Bloodmoon: Lose with -1+ more wins, :Linoone-Galar: Lose 3-5 while :Dhelmise: Lose 0-8, :Rayquaza-Mega: Win
Tiebreak with:
:Ursaluna-Bloodmoon: Lose with 2 less wins, :Linoone-Galar: Lose with 2 more wins
:Linoone-Galar:
Win - Qualify.

Tie - They will be below :Ursaluna-Bloodmoon:, so they need to be higher than the other 2 teams. DNQ if :Dhelmise: Win or Tie

Lose - Same as above. Qualify only if:
:Dhelmise: Lose 0-8 while :Linoone-Galar: Lose 3-5, and :Rayquaza-Mega: Tie or Lose
Tiebreak with:
:Dhelmise: Lose with 2 less wins
:Rayquaza-Mega:
Win - By hitting 3 points, they need to be higher than :Dhelmise: and 1 of :Ursaluna-Bloodmoon: and :Linoone-Galar:. Simplest to consider necessary score of :Ursaluna-Bloodmoon: vs :Linoone-Galar: for each possibility:
In all cases: :Ursaluna-Bloodmoon: and :Linoone-Galar: not 4-4, and :Dhelmise: Lose
8-0: Qualify.
7-1: Qualify.
6-2: Not 3-5 (tiebreak :Ursaluna-Bloodmoon:).
5-3: Not 3-5 or 2-6 (tiebreak :Ursaluna-Bloodmoon:).
i.e. Qualify if :Dhelmise: Lose and either :Linoone-Galar: Lose or :Ursaluna-Bloodmoon: Lose big while :Rayquaza-Mega: Win big

Tie - DNQ.

Lose - DNQ.

Just for you? Three questions
Two trains, Train A and Train B, simultaneously depart Station A and Station B. Station A and Station B are 252.5 miles apart from each other. Train A is moving at 124.7mph towards Station B, and Train B is moving at 253.5mph towards station A. If both trains departed at 10:00AM and it is now 10:08, how much longer until both trains pass each other?
