CAP Team Tournament Sign Ups!!!
You read it right; sign ups are now open! This thread will be open for the next week or so, depending on activity and spacing of replies.
Because this is the first time the CAP Metagame is attempting a team tour like this, we have decided that each week the teams will face off in 5 head to head matches, not 7 like in other team tours and premier leagues. This will allow for the teams to be smaller to better match our current player base. And now the formats have been decided! The lineup with be CAP ORAS, CAP ORAS, CAP BW2, CAP DPPHGSS, and CAP Dubs! The format rules are listed below! *Please note that at this time, CAPmon g4 sprites are not up but we're hoping for them to be ready before the start of the tour.
Now, time to introduce the team
- sparktrain
, leader of the Naughty Necturnas!
- cbrevan
, leader of the Choice Band Revenankhs!
- Animus Majulous
, leader of the Vicious Volkrakens!
- Tadasuke
, leader of the Colossal Colossoils!
Depending on the level of interest, more CAPtains may be added; if 35-40 people sign up we will likely have a scrub CAPtain. Do NOT reply saying you'd like to be a back-up CAPtain, since these have more or less already been decided. If new CAPtains are announced, they will be added above.
So, if you're interested in the CAPTT and want to sign up, here's what we want you to do:
- Reply and say your smogon name and your main PS names if different
- List which tiers you think you'll be good in / the ones you want to play in (ORAS, Gen5, Gen4, CAP Dubs)
- Say whether or not you have any expected upcoming inactivy; if so, please specify.
- Do NOT post dank memes here. Those are reserved for this thread.
