Time to get the show on the road. Manager signups for MPL VII are now open! If you will be signing up, please be sure to read the rules below. There will be two forms of signups: Those for returning managers and those for new managers.
Manager prices will be handled the same way as MPL VI detailed HERE. We will only be using records from the most recent 2 MPLs, MPL V and MPL VI, in the calculation. MWP and Mono World Cup will not be included. The price ranges will remain the same as well as the number of each group. 15k is an exception if many managers, more than 4, did not play in both MPL V or MPL VI. Needless to say, managers who did not play in MPL V or MPL VI will automatically be 15k.
Manager prices are calculated based on the 2 most recent MPL scores multiplied by the win % and placed into ranges from 0-500, 501-1500, and so on if you keep adding 100 up to 3500+. Prices start at 12.5k and increment by 2.5k each bracket higher up to 22.5k. Read the (slightly) more detailed version here.
Team A: Blackthorn Bucks
Team B: Dreamyard Darkrais
Team C: Goldenrod Gengars
Team D: Hau'oli Houndooms
Team E: Hearthome Honchkrows
Team F: Meteor Falls Miniors
Team G: Mirage Island Milotics
Team H: Trick House Treeckos
The draft date will be decided upon by the managers following the end of Player Signups. Expect the weekend of June 26th-27th! The budget will again be 130k.
The manager selection process is mostly subjective. Ticken and I will select the managers we feel are most strongly involved with the community and display the attitude requisite of a manager.
Manager signups ends on Sunday, June 13th at 11:59PM GMT -4!
Time to get the show on the road. Manager signups for MPL VII are now open! If you will be signing up, please be sure to read the rules below. There will be two forms of signups: Those for returning managers and those for new managers.
If you are a returning manager, please indicate the team you will be returning to manage by typing the letter assigned to it. Returning managers will be given priority to reclaim their existing teams, but they cannot take over a team that was not previously theirs. If you would like to change the name of the team you previously managed, please include the new team name in your post.
Manager Name:
Assistant Manager (Assman):
Team Name:
Returning Manager:
Previous Team: (Use the assigned letter)
New Team Name (if you're changing it):
* Note - MPL has the strictest Team Name convention. If you wish to rename a team, it must be a place that exists in the Pokemon universe. It is up to our discretion if the place you choose only appeared in the Pokemon anime and for only a couple of appearences. Generally 3 or less episodes. Additionally, the first letter of the first word in the name must be the same first letter of the Pokemon name you use with it. I.e. Littleroot Lotad / Trick House Treeckos.Shortened Pokemon names are acceptable if it is still easy to understand which Pokemon it refers to. PM Ticken or me if you have any questions, or we will message you if we believe it doesn't follow a criteria.
Example:
Manager name: 1 True Lycan
Assistant Manager (Assman): Sabella
Team name: Hearthome Honchkrows
Returning manager: Yes

For retaining rights, new managers will be assigned to a team based on affiliation of prior MPLs. If there is no strong affiliation then they can indicate what preference they have for what team to takeover. If you are selected to take over the name of a previous team and would like to change the name of the team you are assigned to, please include the new team name you would like for the team you are assigned. Ability to actually change the name is dependent on the prior manager's approval.
