Now I know and going forward I shall only save the more meaningful and entertaining battles. I wish I knew how to save battle videos on my flashcart so I can convert them on demand.
Speaking of which I just won against an Italian ranked 1844 and he disconnected on me just after I took down his last pokemon, and I wanted to record that one, but now that's not possible :(
Hi, you rolled me twice in a row, good job! Sorry about the internet hiccup.
Would any of you believe me if I said that i ran into nothing but D.cers today in the 1600+ ratings?
And I only got 3 wins but I also got 3 losses to ;l.

No problem, actually i also battle against joel, he beated me T_T
Thanks for fixing me!
Oh, I'd believe you! I'd believe you SO much! 'Cause that's pretty much precisely what's been going on with me. I can't get past 1675, even though I've won non-stop for at least 12 battles now!
Some of my recent victories against other 1800+ players which I had hope to save battle video for my youtube montage have once again ended in disconnect. one more day and this VGC11 team shall retire with some pride that's for sure.
OMG, I've been so haxed these past games. I dropped from 1981 to 1953. I mean seriously in 1 game 2 FREEZE HAX. The next one twice in a row double flinch hax bs 2 turns in a row.
Got myself back up to ~1870 for the nth time. Probably won't be the last time I say that, as it starts to feel like this team is reaching its limits. Scarfed Terrakions definately have a grudge against me since they have been 5 for 5 in landing a flinching attack on me at bad times.
Taking a break:
132W - 17L, 16 inbattle D/Cs
Rating 1872
I feel that playing hours on end of Battle Frontier/Subway has caused me to be tolerant of all the ups and downs this Tourney has given me. From the disconnects, to the constant fighting of casual sub 1500 score players, to bad turn 1 bs crit hax. Either that or the fact that a drop of 70 or so points in rating from getting into a slump is nothing compared to the frustration of losing a long win streak to something that's at least 1 in 1000 to occur.

There's a hole in the world like a great, black pit and it's filled with people who are filled with shit, and it's name is... Autumn Friendly.
Yeah, just felt like posting that, I don't even have any wins or losses to update with this time, nine disconnects all in a row, many by people I've already seen before once, and on TWO occasions, even twice.
Seriously, who else is in the 60's for disconnects? Is my low personal luck stat just trolling me here? I feel like it is. =__=
Nice attitude there, I'm completely with you. Though maybe going slightly more insane, considering I haven't had many actual finished matches, while you've had over a hundred already. Regardless, as much as I act like I'm raging, I'm mostly just laughing at the trainers who're too pathetic to accept a loss. Echoing Evan, I'll be happy to say that I've retired this team with the knowledge that they've done their best and taken their relatively few beatings where they were due.

1952 with 123 battles, stopped keeping track of how many I've won/lost but probably lost 9-10. Going to probably play one or two more before going for tonight.
Had some really great games today with TR_Jesse, 7014gree, Superpokemon67, MattJ, Dark_Penguin67, R Inanimate, and a bunch of others. Only got 1 video, but I'll be sure to save all good battles tomorrow. I'll be uploading/narrating all these videos to my Youtube channel after the tournament ends.
And on that note, CodyVGC just disconnected on me after I 4-0'd him without taking any damage. I would think he would put a better fight; he beats himself every time!
GROW SOME.
(And the only reason I'm complaining about this is because he has some nerve to cheat the GBU's ladder system and now DC's against everyone he loses. Come on now.)

Perhaps you will make it to the 1700+s tomorrow, I know I'm stuck there.
Everytime I hear one of you guys defeat someone who beat me but D.C just angers me. It's like normal ladder all over again, I'm starting to remember why I quit it.
gg matty, though you got haxed quite a few times like C.C crit on haxxy, and crunch triggering effect spore putting you right back to sleep.Well with that im at 1980 again.
EDIT: Came at yo lief Aioros. Don't give em that shit. He killed yo thundurus, AND stop your beat up.
/instigation

Don't give me this shit, you disconnected on me after I beat you fair and square in a game. My name is Aaron and I killed your Thundurus with quick attack and stopped your beat up. :/
it makes me angry that chumps like you disconnect and then go "GOOD LUCK GUYS" as if you were fighting the same upstream battle.
Probably not, and that's both unfortunate and very fortunate, since I've got a job interview that a friend of mine tells me might become an on-the-spot hire and begin training type deal. Sooo, I may be destined to rest on 1675. Ah well! I have to admit, I kinda had fun slowly going insane in this broke-ass 'tournament.'
At least it drove me to come take part in this community. For the longest time, I've only been using the site for the Pokemon strategy and whatnot. That part was good.
I remember you. Didn't realize you were on the forums though.
I threw together a team of some of my favorites this afternoon and dove right in. I'm up to 1651 now (16W-4L with only 2 DCs) and having a blast! Aiya - Georgia, USA

Yeah...I managed to do a good match despite the bad matchup, but those two episodes were decisive and condemned me to defeat...this is the 2nd match in a row i lose for hax...i lost more than 40 points :(
It was me, but the disconnection is not my fault...i never disconnect ;)
Darn hope ya rebound. Really nice team. Can see why it got you t2 worlds.
