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 and/or ORAS 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.
Play 1 battle against your opponent in the relevant OU tier on http://smogtours.psim.us/ and post the result along with your opponent's name and the tier.
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.
