Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Can I ask for an extension? Cookies waited till yesterday to schedule (I asked him last Saturday) and decided on a time that I wont even be available for (due to work)
Could I go ahead and call act on my opponent? I messaged them early this week on their page, but I haven't gotten a response yet and the deadline is approaching.
