Week 1 | Week 2 | Week 3 | Week 4 | Week 5 | Week 6 | Week 7 | Semifinals | Finals
Administrative decisions | Replays and Usages | Spreadsheet

Rules​
  • Follow all rules listed here.​
  • Schedule via Smogon VMs. It's easier for us to make decisions for activity calls when we can actually see what went down with scheduling.​
  • If you are unable to schedule with your opponent, please let your managers know ASAP so they can communicate that to us or the other team's managers for a potential substitute.​
  • Substitutions may be made after a week as started. When making a substitution, please tag myself, the managers of the opposing team, and all of the players affected by the substitute to ensure that everyone is made aware. Players who have already played in the week or were subbed out in the same week cannot be subbed back in.​
  • If a match remains incomplete by the time of the deadline, it will be subject to an activity call.​
  • Post replays. Not only are they useful for confirming wins, they contribute to usage stats and allow the people who couldn't watch the games live to watch them later. They're also required.​

I've shifted from 'trying to get everything right' to 'trying to shape the reality that gets THE HAMSLAPS into playoffs'

Sacred Sakura (4) vs (6) To Pimp A Butterfree
SV ZU: Micciu vs Leroipolux (I think Micciu is better)
SV ZU: One Last Kiss vs aerobee (I think OLK is better)
SV ZU: hxmo vs LogIce (i gotta stop bolding Frees SV 0-3, and a last week loss vs a sub win might have the momentum for that?)
SS ZU: Jojen vs clean (clean is still doing well)
SM ZU: eldids vs hex (have i watched any SM games this tour? no. but the vibes say eldids is doing well)
ORAS ZU: Shadow079 vs NoName6293 (oh thats a fun MU. Im convinced that shadow's strength is equal to the team he has so I'm bolding for the MU being better)
BW ZU: SEA vs Xrn (fun one, both have similar records so I'm bolding Xrn because its better for my playoff odds)
DPP ZU: HSOWA vs tier (whatever tier's doing is working)
ADV ZU: scionicle vs LustfulLice (lice hype)
SmogTours Bo3 (SV, SS, SM): DugZa vs OranBerryBlissey10 (i really wanted to bold DugZa but I really really want the sakuras' playoff spot, and it's a close MU where OBB has more experience IMO)

Morpeek-A-Boos (6)
vs (4) The Mega Launchers
SV ZU: shuixin vs PTKmoekyuun (I think I'm allowed to doubt someone while they're still 1-0)
SV ZU: DripLegend vs Akotelette (last i checked Ako has a really bad teamtour record. Ako is good at this tier and can beat Drip, but i'm bolding drip anyways)
SV ZU: MemphisDepay vs plznostep (Memphis is no longer undefeated in SV and usually I'm straight bolding steppy, but I have a feeling)
SS ZU: Ninja vs crow crumbs (this is the top 2 of the tier rn. I'm going to slightly favor Ninja because I think he's had less farmable opponents (aka beaten clean))
SM ZU: Kasp vs MZ (he actually got away with it again)
ORAS ZU: Plague vs The Strap (plague did win last week, but i think that The Strap is stronger)
BW ZU: BeatsBlack vs LOOR (I'm expecting some jank form LOOR and while I think BeatsBlack will be ready for it, he might not be.)
DPP ZU: HAVOCKNIGHT vs Django (how dare this happen before im up)
ADV ZU: Lafell vs Fragments (why not)
SmogTours Bo3 (SV, SS, SM): Toto vs diego (i cant say 'diego lock in' if he won last week smh)

Humilau Hakamo-os (6) vs (4) The Collective
SV ZU: Michael Jordan vs milliongatejumpguy (SURELY he plays this week)
SV ZU: krieugeur vs Tempo di anguria (am stumped here because I really cant gague how I rate these 2 next to each other, i cant bold a 3-0 SV so I'm going tempo)
SV ZU: Cammellia白山茶 vs PlayaBeavs (dang 2 goats, can't go with the one I teamed with because I want their playoffs spot)
SS ZU: a fruitshop owner vs 5Dots (I needed a 6th W for the hakas and since I have no idea how much SS either of these guys have played I felt like I could get away with it it here)
SM ZU: Nara vs neomon (beat MZ, also I don't think Nara has been doing as well)
ORAS ZU: Charles A. Theist vs DD Joe (I believed in a charles X-0 and i ruined it, sorry)
BW ZU: Yovan vs feen (I don't know what either player is capable of here tbh, and I want hakas winning)
DPP ZU: Finchely vs Heysup (their records are surprisingly close, but I do have to bold Heysup)
ADV ZU: Hachimaki vs bydy (hachi)
SmogTours Bo3 (SV, SS, SM): Greybaum vs seraphz (i trust Greybaum slightly more)
 
Sacred Sakura (6) vs (4) To Pimp A Butterfree
SV ZU: Micciu vs Leroipolux - i rate micciu insanely high
SV ZU: One Last Kiss vs aerobee - similar case as above
SV ZU: hxmo vs LogIce - will prob tryhard prep more
SS ZU: Jojen vs clean - have not been liking sakura's ss teams + clean diff
SM ZU: eldids vs hex - si pierdes esa nunca mas ss cap 1v1 hermano
ORAS ZU: Shadow079 vs NoName6293 - back into the trenches you go shadow
BW ZU: SEA vs Xrn - hl of the week, i rate sea ever so slightly higher, huge tossup tho
DPP ZU: HSOWA vs tier - oops
ADV ZU: scionicle vs LustfulLice - i trust lice's experience more
SmogTours Bo3 (SV, SS, SM): DugZa vs OranBerryBlissey10 - this is gonna be a lot closer than ppl expect

The HAMSLAPS (5) vs (5) Mossui Town Spiritombs
SV ZU: Baddy vs THE_CHUNGLER - very close matchup, but if chung tryhards he's unstoppable
SV ZU: Ruffles vs Scarf Kricketune - another close matchup, went ruffles so this + above is 1-1
SV ZU: mipc vs TwentyTwan - just don't fumble man u got this
SS ZU: Shaneghoul vs Sificon - shane back in ss you love to see it
SM ZU: btboy vs sugar ovens - another great matchup, i rate btboy's ingame ever so slightly higher
ORAS ZU: BP vs Regiboob - don't sleep on the beepers
BW ZU: skrimps vs Monai - never bold against the 8.5
DPP ZU: sky vs Tizio - yes skrimps support but i have rly been liking tizio's loads and ingame this season
ADV ZU: big tony 2014 vs Melninja - tony has been loading random bullshit, mel has loaded some bullshit but less random
SmogTours Bo3 (SV, SS, SM): Leni vs Terracotta - who wins sv wins it all, and i've been liking terra's crack more than leni's

Humilau Hakamo-os (6) vs (4) The Collective
SV ZU: Michael Jordan vs milliongatejumpguy - come on mj lock IN
SV ZU: kriegueur vs Tempo di anguria - would love to be proven wrong but tempo has better results
SV ZU: Cammellia白山茶 vs PlayaBeavs - just don't let him burn the kitchen
SS ZU: a fruitshop owner vs 5Dots - is this oras? i trust fruits' ingame more
SM ZU: Nara vs neomon - fun mu, i have been particularly liking neomon's teams
ORAS ZU: Charles A. Theist vs DD Joe - charles has been on a tear ngl, joe could very well get the upset tho
BW ZU: Yovan vs feen - yovan back in bw zu will feed generations
DPP ZU: Finchely vs Heysup - heysup
ADV ZU: Hachimaki vs bydy - hachi
SmogTours Bo3 (SV, SS, SM): Greybaum vs seraphz - seraphz's loads have seemed a lil lazy to me ngl, while grey builds consistently
 
Does anyone know where I can get goldfish crackers in France ? This is very important

Sacred Sakura (6) vs (4) To Pimp A Butterfree
SV ZU: Micciu vs Leroipolux - French buff
SV ZU: One Last Kiss vs aerobee - this is where the vibes bring me
SV ZU: hxmo vs LogIce - go hxmo
SS ZU: Jojen vs clean - cool mu, still think clean has it
SM ZU: eldids vs hex - eldids is that guy
ORAS ZU: Shadow079 vs NoName6293 - shadow won this same mu in wcup so here we go I suppose
BW ZU: SEA vs Xrn
DPP ZU: HSOWA vs tier
ADV ZU: scionicle vs LustfulLice - vibes based predict
SmogTours Bo3 (SV, SS, SM): DugZa vs OranBerryBlissey10 - Could go either way because Obb likes throwing SV and bringing Sandslash

The HAMSLAPS (5) vs (5) Mossui Town Spiritombs
SV ZU: Baddy vs THE_CHUNGLER - top of PR ranking showdown, although iirc neither has a super insane record this tour
SV ZU: Ruffles vs Scarf Kricketune - I think SK is pretty bs-proof so he should win this unless he brings a dugtrio again
SV ZU: mipc vs TwentyTwan - both players are very close in skill, could go either way
SS ZU: Shaneghoul vs Sificon - I have no idea
SM ZU: btboy vs sugar ovens - btwin
ORAS ZU: BP vs Regiboob - the boob
BW ZU: skrimps vs Monai - has been doing a bit better
DPP ZU: sky vs Tizio - will probably come down to a stupid crit icl
ADV ZU: big tony 2014 vs Melninja - big GOATny 2014
SmogTours Bo3 (SV, SS, SM): Leni vs Terracotta

Morpeek-A-Boos (0) vs (0) The Mega Launchers
SV ZU: shuixin vs PTKmoekyuun - crackhead buff ?
SV ZU: DripLegend vs Akotelette - French buff go akoooooo
SV ZU: MemphisDepay vs plznostep - sorry steppy I can't sensibly predict peko SV 0-3
SS ZU: Ninja vs crow crumbs - this is pretty hype
SM ZU: Kasp vs MZ
ORAS ZU: Plague vs The Strap - another vibe based predict
BW ZU: BeatsBlack vs LOOR - BeatsBlack&WhitePlayers
DPP ZU: HAVOCKNIGHT vs Django
ADV ZU: Lafell vs Fragments - go Lafell
SmogTours Bo3 (SV, SS, SM): Toto vs diego - this week doesn't matter enough, toto won't be locked in

I'm also betting all my aura that Michael Jordan will actually attend his own game and WIN
 
Calling activity.

I gave my availability, which ended 3 minutes ago, Monday morning and opponent did not offer a time. They have also been online for multiple hours since my post according to their availability and also confirmed by their smogon activity and simply chose not to reply further.
