Assigned to Seven Deadly Sins

Age: 17 (18 come Wednesday)
Time zone: Central (GMT -6?)
Regular Online Hours (Eastern only!): Varies (available whenever)
Do you want to play in the tournament: yes
Experience level: Moderate. I'm a respectable player to most people. I battle fine, my teams just blow.
Tiers I need help in (in order of preference): OU, UU, Uber
A little about myself: Despite my best efforts I still don't have my life back. As such, I've got even more free time. I was tutored by Sapientia during the last round and it helped, but I'm still struggling with the Team Building process. The problem isn't with him as a tutor but that since I know the basics (typing, threats, coverage, etc) it's rather difficult to identify the problem; having different playstyles didn't help, though didn't hurt either.

I would like to request Seven Deadly Sins as my tutor. He has agreed to help me with my team building problems and I have made sure that he can really address the issue. We both play offense which will help greatly.

Shoddy Battle nick: Objection
Age: 17
Time zone: GMT

Experience level: Fairly experienced, but mostly at running into problems.
Tiers I need help in (in order of preference): OU, Ubers, UU
A little about myself: My goal in life right now is to become a professional computer game designer/programmer, and it has been that way for as long as I can remember. I even do a little bit of game designing in my spare time with a piece of software called Game Maker. I am a member of several other websites/forums, the most notable being Marriland (Objection) and MFGG (mariobro27).

I have a habit of going against the norm, and this is especially shown in pokemon - just look at the list of pokemon in my signature that I never use (note that my reason for not using Abomasnow is his auto perma-hail causing damage to my team, and the same with Hippowdon and sandstorm). Stat boosters I don't use because whenever I do use them, they are easily countered. Exploders I don't use because I often find that I have to keep my whole team alive to remain a threat to my opponent.

I don't mind who my tutor is as long as if it's for OU, they respect my decision to not use any pokemon from the list in my signature, because I am sure that there are ways of making a team that can kick ass without resorting to the same old stuff.

And Dogfish, yes it is.

Do you want to play in the tournament: Yes
Experience level: I'm not too sure about this.. I know some things, but I don't think I know too much. Maybe I lack confidence.. But if I'm here, that's because I want to make my battling/team making skills better.
Tiers I need help in (in order of preference): OU and maybe UU (but OU first)
A little about myself: Well, I am really interested in competitive battling and I am ready to put time in it. I've used this site a lot for movesets, strategies and articles. But now, that's not enough, and I'd like to learn as much as possible. Also (as a little detail) my grades at school are pretty bad, and I may be punished for that (no computer anymore).. If that ever happens, Ill try to think of a solution or something..

Experience level: I’ve played pokemon for many years, but not competitively until this past summer. I’m not that good (maybe 6 out of 10), but I love to learn. My prediction is decent, but my teambuilding sucks. I did the tutor program last round, but I'd like to go again.
Teirs: UU, OU, Uber
A little about myself: I am an honor student with a 4 point, so I may not be able to get on all the time when homework catches up with me. I play on the soccer team. I listen to rock music and play the saxophone. I want to be an engineer when I grow up. I lurk around the forums a lot. That’s about it.
Anyone tutor will be fine. Thanks!
