I have a question, when auctions start, if I big say 4k on someone, then you reply the day after bidding for 5k, do I win the person or you ?_?

Inactive for the next few days due to a vacation.
I have a mono-Pikachu team in Hackmons that I use as a side project that only lost once. My time zone is typically GMT -5.

Edit: Made format nicer.

I'm going to say the same thing as I did in the other tourney thread. Yes, Monotype does have a match up factor. But no, it does not make it anywhere near as luck reliant as randbats or 1v1. You can reliably beat your weaknesses, it isn't even that hard. Apart from a select few, Monotype are more then equipped to deal with them. If you don't like it, don't play the tier. It's that simple.

I agree with this statement, the most appealing feature of Monotype is IMO: Teambuilding in a way to get around "bad" matchups. You can run unorthodox, sets or whatever as Hidden Power Ground Volcarona for Mono Bug and Cradily for Monograss. This is a pro for Monotype as it creates an unique situation during teambuilding when every team has to prepare for the supposedly bad match-ups, but a good Monotyper knows how to reliable surprise and beat his Weaknesses.

Oh yeah, 750th post

I agree with this. It's actually really easy to beat your weaknesses if you put enough thought into your team. I've swept a rock mono with my bug mono and got a fire mono down to one last mon, again with the bug mono
 
let's be real, Bedroom Blisseys was the best team name in any splinter premier league

I'll still be involved with the tournament, however. Monte Cristo will be posting the threads, but I'll be collecting rosters and making any decisions related to battles (I'll find some random TD to bitch to if I need to).
 
Ok, so there are all these arguments about monotype. What I think is that while it is matchup based, there are ways around it. Even then, though, you're gonna lose to a certain type a lot. I propose something else. A meta to replace it.

Pure Hackmons has been removed because 1. we have Balanced Hackmons and 2. Pure Hackmons is a shitty metagame.

It has been replaced by a best of 5 round of 1v1. Once a Pokemon has been knocked out, you are not allowed to reuse it.

Please reflect this change in your signups. Thanks!
