IF YOU TRULY BELIEVE,
After a long break for SPL, Ubers Suspect testing has returned, raring to go. We're ratcheting up the controversy with a great one here: Moody Clause.
Ubers Suspect Leader sickness has claimed its second victim, Poppy. I have not appointed a specific co-leader, so feel free to consult any Ubers mod if you have questions about the test.
The way this will work is as follows. After 2 weeks of laddering, the Ubers Council will convene to decide whether the metagame is stable enough to move to a large-scale measure. The only reason this would not be done is if the metagame is so uncompetitive that it does not function at all. At this time, they can also vote to amend the clauses in certain ways as a further option in the vote. After this meeting, we will look at the ladder and use a set of requirements to determine who can vote. We're taking a page from OU's book and setting the requirements at a Glicko2 rating of 2000 and a Glicko2 deviation of 55 or lower on the Ubers SUSPECT ladder. Note that this time there will be an Ubers Suspect Ladder, which will replace the normal Ubers Ladder. Also be aware that, if we are not satisfied with the amount of people who qualify with the above ratings, we may lower it; do NOT rely on this, however.
Here's a timeline:
Good luck, and may the Smeargle be with you.

Here's a timeline:
- Tuesday, April 2: Ubers Suspect Ladder goes up with Moody Clause removed, replacing the normal Ubers Ladder.
- Tuesday, April 16, 11:59 PM: Round finishes. A screenshot will be taken of the ladder and a thread will be posted to identify yourselves.
- Thursday, April 18, 11:59PM: Special applications are due and we will start voting.
- Sometime after the round ends but before we begin voting, we will have a council meeting on #uberscouncil on SynIRC. The date and time will be announced further down the road when the council members' schedules allow.
Good luck, and may the Smeargle be with you.
