You have our lineup wrong...
it was supposed to be Jrank '11 Me '12
/me sighs
might as well do the predicts for everyone else

JAA: skarm vs. DeagleBeagle (C) Most powerful by far
VGC 09: mattj vs. DaNukes One uses actual 09 pokemon
VGC 10: Firestorm (C) vs. drcossack not named drcossack
VGC 11: dtrain vs. twash not feeling a comment
GBU Doubles: Tyler vs. Human (A) If he haxes me out of my first (and maybe only if the line up gets fucked up again), he better go flawless for the tourney

JAA: zarator vs. theamericandream38 Never predict someone who lost to iss fairly to win
VGC 09: tennisace vs. Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho (C) Fi-fi-banana-fana
VGC 10: TDS vs. GEC
VGC 11: B-Lulz vs. Sapphire Birch
GBU Doubles: muffinhead vs. Infinity Cypher has used the same team since months before rules were anounced, that takes commitment.

JAA: evan (A) vs. Ninahaza unless he runs focus band shedinja of course
VGC 09: andrea vs. Havak
VGC 10: TTS (C) vs. Evan Falco
VGC 11: Synre (A) vs. rubeNCB92
GBU Doubles: Dozz vs. OmegaDonut (C) Haven't seen either of them play
 
OH I MAKE LARGELY ILLOGICAL PREDICTIONS AGAIN

i figure theres not much risk of getting proven wrong since only half of these matches will actually happen anyway


JAA: skarm vs. DeagleBeagle (C) hard to root for a guy who puts himself #1 on his own power rankings
VGC 09: mattj vs. DaNukes unless they decide to determine the winner of this match based on who has better taste in malls
VGC 10: Firestorm (C) vs. drcossack if i predict this or the JAA match wrong I will enjoy weeks of mocking the loser relentlessly as consolation
VGC 11: dtrain vs. twash goin duck over scooter on this one
GBU Doubles: Tyler vs. Human (A) the more tyler loses the better i feel about my odds in november yea! ilu tyler



JAA: zarator vs. theamericandream38 yeah whatever i guess
VGC 09: tennisace vs. Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho (C) im pretty sure no one with the other name is a registered account i think theres been a mistake?
VGC 10: TDS vs. GEC but rootin for gec mate
VGC 11: B-Lulz vs. Sapphire Birch use whimsicott like a man
GBU Doubles: muffinhead vs. Infinity Cypher has a better name

JAA: Maestrol vs. iss because i truly believe divine intervention wont rescue iss in 2 of 3 games eventually
VGC 09: Sixonesix vs. AlphaOmega i dont really have strong feelings on this one
VGC 10: sandman vs. Cybertron (C) yeah whatever why not
VGC 11: The Wolf vs. Solace (A) rootin strong against traitor solace hopefully she loses like 16-0 or something
GBU Doubles: DukeTheDevil vs. JRank (A) not feelin a comment on this one


JAA: evan (A) vs. Ninahaza
VGC 09: andrea vs. Havak
VGC 10: TTS (C) vs. Evan Falco
VGC 11: Synre (A) vs. rubeNCB92
GBU Doubles: Dozz vs. OmegaDonut (C)

oh this matchup blows
 
Confirming my loss to Zarator. Game 1 he played well, I chose my pokemon poorly, and he won as a result. Game 2 I played well, he rolled some dice, won said dice roll and the match as a result.
 
there is an ERROR in our lineup: it should be Solace benched (thanks gurl), Kingofkongs GBU, JRank VGC 11

Sorry for the confusion.
 
Seriously, only 1 match played so far? There will most likely be no more NPA News at this rate because there is nothing to report. I'm serious.
 
You would have to ask the Commissioner for any activity based incentives, or possibly your own manager. I'm more for punishing the people who don't play though. Firestorm is the only person who has a valid excuse not to play his match and that's only because we all know his opponent isn't going to show up.
 
drcossack keeps telling me he'll show up Wednesday when I ask him to battle other times I see him on. I understand that fool me once, fool me twice stuff but you know, sometimes you just gotta believe. And I believe.
 
I won 2-0 over drcossack using a double Blizzard freeze in rain that had him unable to act for precisely 0 turns. Although committed to internet matches, drcossack does not seem to confirm or deny a possible appearance in Philadelphia.
