I'm still holding out hope that IAR will let us update our mons' profiles to match the non-tourney versions
No.
Also, in the interests of getting this thing moving on, I am giving 48 hours as of this post for everyone still in this who has not claimed yet to claim. The same applies for referee's willing to ref, though I forgot to mention: since this is finals, I expect the referee's to provide plenty of flavour, since this is supposed to be professional stuff. If I do not get enough refs that I deem suitable to provide flavour & be a good ref, I may have to step in & ref one of these finals.
Finally, yes this is the finals, but I want these finals to be done
on time, which means I will be putting my foot down on inactivity. The 3 Day DQ Time will be in force, & you exceed this, I will VM/PM/tell you on IRC to hurry up & issue actions/ref the match. Unless you have a suitable excuse other than something along the lines of "I am still deciding" (In the case of battlers), you will have 24 hours to post before I/Your opponent calls DQ/I get a subref. This Tournament has lasted long enough. What I
do not want is for this round to last in excess of 2-3 months. I also do not want people deliberately waiting until the last moment to post in their match. That sort of behaviour will not be tolerated, & may result in the extra 24 hour warnings being revoked, or much worse (DQ). The message I want to stamp across is that I do not want a repeat of the last few rounds. Everyone wants this Tournament to end, & I am going to ensure a speedy finish to this thing.
That said, good luck Team jassmashpwn & Team Cruel Britannia in the finals, make sure you guys claim, & may the best team win. Make sure you post on time to avoid anything bad happening to you/your team.
Cheers!
