Introduction

Have you ever been waiting for a certain tournament to start just so you can play a tier, in a organised way, against skilled players? What if you could signup to a tournament and enter into that tournament within a week, all-year round? Well if you want to play RBY, GSC, ADV, DPP, BW, ORAS or SM OU, we've got the tournament for you.

The World's Longest OU tournament is inspired by the Smogon Premier League's Farm League. Just like Farm League, players will primarily be matched according to their win records within a tier, based on previous weeks. If only one player has a certain record, they will be grouped with players of the closest higher/lower record. Pairings will be randomised within these record matching groups. A thread will be created for each week's matches. Week matches will be first-to-1-win.

Unlike Farm League, this tournament can potentially go on indefinitely. You can also sign up for any amount of tiers.

To start off with, the tournament will be scheduled to host for an introduction cycle of 4 weeks, followed by the first two full cycles if all goes well.

Battles

Play a first-to-2-wins set (best of 3 excluding ties) against your opponent in the relevant OU tier on http://smogtours.psim.us/ and post the result in this thread along with your opponent's name.

Decisions

Very limited decision making will take place. No activity wins or wins by default will be awarded. Matches will only be replayed if they don't progress from turn 0, if they end in a tie, or at your opponent's discretion.

Signing-out

To sign out of this tournament, post in the signouts thread, where you can also state tiers you wish to drop. If your match from the previous week is unplayed and you didn't post in that week's thread, you will be removed from the pairings for the current week and will have to sign up again for the next week.

☆Pohjis: yeah would be nice to not need waste
☆Le Empoleone ~: you played well
☆Pohjis: 1 hour for this shitty asss game

This summons my thoughts after I lost to Empo in three games. You are a nice guy and the set was fun regardless. Good luck against Ron. :)

Can we get extensions please? Kenan and I are on quite different schedules during the week but should be able to play on weekend. I haven't heard from Moxie yet but I'm about to reach out to him to schedule our matches.

Thank you!

Yes, the deadline is just so no one got too impatient with their opponent(s).

Dang. Can I propose we do a Bo1, if that's okay with you Lutra? Providing we all agree with it of course.

The problem is with scheduling. I'm 7 hours behind the other two guys and it's just too difficult to actually play our matches. Basically the only times we're available to fight are like my weekend mornings. I dunno, it's just a thought.
