Welcome to the fourth iteration of TLT (Tours' Leaderboard Tournament)! Throughout this tournament, players will battle in a best-of-three/best-of-five (from the 6th round on) format each round, with Smogon's standard tiers being the metagames played. This tournament is also Swiss for the first five weeks, so even if you're defeated once, you can still have a chance to qualify for the playoffs (3+ wins).
The tiers that will be played are:
SS Ubers
SS OU
SS UU
SS RU
SS NU
SS PU
SS LC
In order to fairly determine the three of these seven tiers played in each individual matchup, players will take turns locking and eliminating tiers among themselves. They'll both lock one tier, followed by eliminating two tiers, thus leaving three tiers to be played. The lower seeded player (determined by points in the cycle) will lock the first tier, followed by the higher seed player. Then the lower seeded player will eliminate the first tier, followed by the higher seed player, and it will repeat in that order one more time. The higher seed player picks what tier is played first of the three tiers. After that, the loser of game one picks which of the two tiers is played for game two. Naturally, game three will be played in the last remaining tier.
(Example: Temp placed #1 in cycle 1, while Axgwd placed 12th in cycle 3. Ax, the lower seed, decides to lock PU, followed by Temp locking OU. At this point, neither PU nor OU can be eliminated. Ax, the lower seed, chooses to first eliminate Ubers. Temp follows with RU. Ax then eliminates LC, and Temp eliminates NU. So thus the three tiers that would be played are PU (what Ax locked in), OU (what Temp locked in) and UU (the tier that didn't get banned). Of these tiers remaining, Temp, the higher seed, chooses to play OU first. Temp then loses game one, and chooses to play UU next. Should it go to game three, the tier to be played will be PU.)
Basic tournament rules - you absolutely should read this, especially if you're new to forum tournaments
Sportsmanship: Don't be an ass. Not to your opponents, not on PS, not on Smogon, not to me. A bit of friendly banter is ok, but please know where to draw the line. Think before you type, please.
Scheduling and Activity Wins: Contact your opponent as quickly as possible on their Smogon wall, and look out for them on PS. You will have one week from the posting of the week's matches to get it done. Extensions will be for two days after the scheduled deadline, and no further. If your opponent is not responding to your post on their wall, cannot be found on PS, or miss multiple scheduled times, make a detailed activity post in the thread letting me know why you deserve the win. No activity post means no activity call. As long as you have visible attempts at scheduling (such as wall posts), you will be fine.
Disconnections and Timer: A timer loss is a loss. No if's, and's, or but's about it. If your opponent is nice enough to replay that's fine, but they are by no means obligated to.
Ghosting and Identity: Don't take or give battle advice or make moves based solely on the suggestions of others, and don't pretend to be someone else in order to play as them. You will be caught, and you will be disqualified from this tournament as well as future PS! tournaments (BLT, PSPL, etc.).
Substitutions: Substitutions will be made only for rounds one & two, with round two subs taking the record of the person they are subbing in for.
