Re: Tournament Changes
- Amount of players that teams can have is now 12, increasing the total subs by 1.
- Week 1 will start on 4th March instead of March 11th, skipping the unnecessary wait time. Once signups are over, captains will have one day to pick players from the pool and post their team’s lineup for week 1.
- For Monothreat, types that weren't used in MWP 2 (Ghost, Electric, Water, Rock, Ice) have an increased chance of being included in the tournament.

RE: Non-challengeable formats
Just for clarity so we don't have issues here is a list of what format every metagame should be played in.
Monotype STABmons and Monotype AAA should be played in Custom Game.
Monothreat should be played Gen 7 Monotype.
BW Monotype should be played in Gen 5 Monotype. Note that BW Mono follows a different ruleset than SM so read the rules carefully! The ruleset of BW Mono can be found here.
Please do not use ROM for matches, their banlists are not updated.
IMPORTANT: Mono AAA and STABmons have new bans implemented after MWP, make sure to check the post on the OM Mega Thread and do not use any illegal teams! Using illegal teams will disqualify you and the opposing player will get the win.

RE: Lavos vs Arifeen
Arifeen seemingly missed the scheduled time and asked Lavos on Sunday morning, hours before the week ended if he wanted to play the series, as to which Lavos can't play. However, Lavos didn't vm Arifeen at the time of the game to check if he was online nor did he ask for a substitute to play for Arifeen, despite there being a lot of time to complete the game as they scheduled for Tuesday morning. Therefore, the game will be considered dead.

RE: Custom Game
Due to an exploit in Custom Battle, all AAA and STABmons should be played in a group chat with custom tournament rules starting immediately. To do so, copy and paste these commands and invite your opponent to the group chat:
AAA:
STABmons:
We are working on a solution to this but please use this temporary workaround until further notice. If the game does not happen using these procedures, the game will be voided and players will have to rechallenge via group chat.

RE: STABmons banlist
Boomburst, Celebrate, Conversion, Trick or Treat, Forest Curse, Happy hour, Hold hands, Purify, Sketch
These moves are banned on non natural users in Monotype STABmons. For example Celebrate Victini would be fine, while something like Celebrate Diggersby wouldn't considering Diggersby doesn't learn the move naturally. However banning these moves in a groupchat tournament will ban the move for natural users too.
Because of this, the moves have been deleted from the groupchat tournament banlist command above. However, please make sure both players are aware of the restricted moves and follow the unwritten banlist. Refer to the STABmons post on the Monotype OM Mega Thread for the entire STABmons banlist.
Again, groupchat tournaments are just a temporary solution of custom battle not being a suitable playable format for Monotype STABmons and Almost Any Ability. We're working on a better solution at the moment.

RE: peachyclouds vs Izaya
peachyclouds and terrors scheduled for Saturday night without any specific time. terrors was on earlier on in the night, while peachy came on later and waited for terrors to come back on. Izaya was then substituted in the next morning and scheduled with peachyclouds quickly, but left since something came up and peachyclouds could not make the scheduled time, causing Izaya to go offline considering how late it was for him. Therefore, the game will be treated as dead due to the unclear scheduling.

RE: Monotype AAA and Monotype STABmons
Courtesy of urkerab, Monotype AAA and Monotype STABmons are now playable on rom.psim.us with the correct banlists. They will both be under the other metagames section labeled "AAA Monotype" and "Monotype STABmons" respectively. Thank you for putting up with the groupchats but they will no longer be needed. The website can be found here.

RE: Triangles vs TonyFlygon
There was no interest from players to schedule and get the game done. Therefore, this game is dead.
RE: Harpp vs JaseTheWorld
Jase The World and Harpp agreed on a timeframe on Saturday night to get the game done. Harpp waited for the entire timeframe and 20 minutes after and left a post on Jase The World's wall after he didn't show up. Therefore Harpp gets the activity win.
RE: Kushalos vs Freeroamer
A scheduling attempt was made by Freeroamer but it was very late and has no response. Since both sides have been shaky with the scheduling, this game is dead.
