SV DOU Swiss
​
What is Doubles Swiss?
Doubles Swiss is a Swiss-style tournament, with five qualifying rounds during the Swiss portion where each round players will be matched up with an opponent with a similar record as them. The rounds will be played in best of three matchups of SV DOU. Players are eliminated once they have three losses in the Swiss portion. Participants that do not accumulate three losses during the Swiss rounds will top cut, which will be a single elimination tournament with rounds of best of three SV DOU, seeded based on the results from the Swiss qualifier.

SPECIFIC RULES
  • This is a standard SV Doubles OU tournament.
  • Rounds will be Best of Three. You may switch teams in between battles of the same set.
  • Matches are to be played on Pokemon Showdown! (Main or SmogTours)
  • To encourage the development of the metagame, and so that everyone is on an even playing field, replays are required for all matches.
  • Activity calls will be made by me, potentially with neutral assistance from a Doubles OU Forum Moderator. Coin flips will be done publicly on PS!
  • In the event that something is added to or removed from the Doubles OU metagame in the middle of a round, that change will be in effect starting the next round.
  • Do not cheat. Cheating will result in a disqualification. Additional punishments may be applied as necessary. Cheating includes, but is not limited to:
    • Signing up with more than one account
    • Ghosting or being ghosted by another player (e.g. while playing a set, asking for advice about what team to bring or what plays to make)
    • Manipulating match outcomes (e.g. throwing a match in exchange for Smogon likes)
  • Do not harass or insult your opponents. I reserve the right to disqualify anyone breaking this rule. Additional punishments may be applied as necessary.

  • Endless Battle Clause: Players cannot use any moveset on any Pokémon capable of intentionally causing an endless battle. Thus:
    • A Pokémon may not carry Recycle and hold a Leppa Berry in conjunction with Heal Pulse and Milk Drink, Moonlight, Morning Sun, Recover, Roost, Slack Off, Soft-Boiled, or Wish.
    • A Pokémon may not hold a Leppa Berry while carrying Recycle and Pain Split.
    • A Pokémon may not hold a Leppa Berry while carrying Recycle and Fling

Requesting activity win.

After contacting my opponent way too late (and getting no response), I took the initiative to request an extension to grant additional time and figure a time for us to play. Throughout this period, my opponent failed to reply (multiple times their "Last Seen" was after my post), to which now I only got an answer today requesting to play way past the extension's deadline.

Even though my initial contact was late, I tried to follow up and take the extension innitiative to get the game done, to which I got no receptivness despite availability, I request an activity win.

Unfortunately have to request activity or a coinflip. As per my initial message I'll be totally unavailable from now until the deadline & even though I will technically be back in my home country on Monday I won't have availability to play an extension. If it's an activity win for me, great, but I'd understand a coin flip as well. In LovelyLuna's defense it does suck to have an opponent halfway around the world with availability as bad as mine was this week and I suppose I am the one unable to do an extension.
