Self-Buy and Retain Information
Each team is allowed up to 3 manager self-buys and retains total. For example, 1 manager selfbuy and 2 player retains, 2 manager selfbuys and 1 retain, or 3 retains and 0 manager self-buys.
You must let us know before Player Signups close.
Managers may retain players from the retain pool assigned to them. Retain cost will be the greater value of either 10K credits or last year's price + 3K credits.
Players that are retained will be locked into the same tiers that they were locked to in the year prior.
Player tierlocks will be lifted for playoffs and tiebreakers, per standard smogon policy.
Retains can be refused. Make sure you confirm with the player they want to be retained before letting us know!
Self Buys:
Teams may either self-buy one manager for 20k or both managers for 40k total. One manager self-buy will be discounted to 15k if the manager locks out of OU (1 per team), totalling 35k in the event of 2 total manager selfbuys.
Manager self-buy lock out will be more strict than normal lockouts: it will apply to ALL rounds, playoffs, AND tiebreakers.
Managers intending to self-buy MUST sign up in the player signup thread: https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/rbypl-vii-player-signups-custom-avatar-prize.3788525

RE: royzin vs Prussian-Jaeger wk 3
RE: Alidakiller & Indigo Illusions alidakiller has been banned from the website altogether for reasons unrelated to RBYPL VII. As a consequence, the Indigo Illusions will be allowed to purchase a replacement player from the pool of undrafted players. Pinging Ulti Bastion to get in contact with the host team regarding your replacement player
Edit: Since Alida's ban has been removed, they will be allowed to continue playing as normal in RBYPL.

King Billu has received a team tournament ban. As a consequence, he will be barred from playing or managing for the remainder of RBYPL VII , effective immediately. The remaining manager,
Ulti Bastion , will be able to promote any player within his draft to be a replacement manager. We urge you to get in contact with the host team as soon as possible regarding who to select as a replacement manager.

RE: Update on King Billu & Indigo Illusions
As stated in the prior post,
King Billu was given a team tournament ban for reasons elaborated on in
this post , barring him from playing or managing for the remainder of RBYPL VII. Today, we as the host team have been informed that his appeal to reverse this ban has been denied.
The remaining manager of the Indigo Illusions,
Ulti Bastion , will be able to select one player from the auction pool of undrafted players as a replacement player , and will also be able to promote any player drafted to the Indigo Illusions team as a replacement manager. We urge you to get in contact with the host team as soon as you have made a decision to make those changes official.
RE: The Nine Inch Ninetales Situation
The Nine Inch Ninetales have sold back
CyberOdin✝ due to inactivity in their team's discord server. Cyberodin will be banned from the next edition of RBYPL, and the Nine Inch Ninetales have purchased
Thare Regn as their replacement player.
RE: The Indigo Illusions Situation
The Indigo Illusions have selected
magma_man to be their replacement player and promoted
Zpice to be their replacement manager!
