NOTE: THIS IS NOT THE OFFICIAL POKEBEACH MONTHLY TOURNAMENT. If you are looking for the official Pokebeach Tournament, click here
Ok, so this will function very similar to the PokeBeach monthly tournaments, but for the theme format. If you have played in those tournaments before you will have the advantage of knowing the system.
HELLO! And welcome to the PokeBeach Unofficial "Monthly" Theme format tournament! This thread will have the pairings for each round, as well as important notes for all players. All players are responsible for checking this thread at the start of every round; ignorance of the contents of this thread is not an excuse for not following any instructions found herein.
You can "Watch" this thread in order to receive notifications whenever a post is made here, but failing to receive a notification is no excuse for knowing when the round begins or ends.
Read this entire post. It's important.
INTRODUCTION
Welcome, friends, both old and new. My name is GamePhoenix. I am the organizer of this tournament. If you have any questions, your first course of action should be to help yourself by reading this thread, because I promise you most of what you want to know can be found here. If the answer isn't here, PM me your question. Be warned, however, that if the answer to your question can be found in one of the aforementioned locations, I will direct you there rather than answer your question directly. I may also choose to ask you a question in reply to help you find the answer yourself.
Basically, don't be lazy.
Again - read this entire post, especially if you're new. You'd be surprised what you can learn by taking the time to help yourself.
To ensure you are apprised of all relevant updates, please make sure to "Watch" this thread. You will (should) receive notifications every time a post is made.
That said, not receiving a notification is no excuse for not manually checking this thread at the start of every round.
Got any suggestions for new questions? Drop me a line (don't post in this thread).
Bookmark this link. I typically enter scores after a round has ended in order to minimize attempts at influencing decisions to ID, since standings are updated in real time as I enter them into Challonge and gives players information they wouldn't otherwise have at an actual tournament. When you check your scores, please make sure the standings are correct; let me know immediately if they are not.
