About Activity Decisions
Activity Decisions / Coin Flips: In the event that there is an uncompleted match at the deadline, it will be coin flipped unless one or both of the players involved in the match specifically request an activity win and explain sufficiently why they deserve to win over their opponent. Attempting to schedule a battle is required in order to receive the win by activity. To make it clear that you are requesting an activity win when you post, you must open your post with "Activity Win Request" in bold.

For example, if you believe your opponent is making an unfair request and that they don't deserve the activity win over you, you can either make your own request or quote their post and explain why they don't deserve it. You should try to make your activity win request posts at least 24 hours before the deadline to give your opponent a reasonable opportunity to contest it with their own activity win request.

Host discretion will be applied for all unplayed games. This means that an activity win will not be automatically granted if you post, and a lack of post does not automatically result in a coinflip.

UPDATE: So, turns out BMC is fine with forfeiting the matches and can talk it through with the refs if need be. I'm still not sure if this can be done, but I do have screenshots of us discussing it.

This works. Make sure next time you save replays. If not, then you would need to replay if your opponent doesn’t choose to verify the win or you’d have to be coin flipped.
 
so does bye 10 mean i get a bye for this round? this is my first smogon tournament so i dont really know how it works tbh

Yes, that is what it means. Although, make sure to periodically check your inbox because there is a chance a sub can be inserted as your opponent for this week. See examples of that occurring above. If you have any more questions, feel free to PM me.
