Ah I see.
Anyways, I am under the impression that the tournament is postponed due to the fact that the majority of the participants use Machamp, which is why, instead of having them change their pokemons, you decided to wait till some abilities/moves are fixed. How about this:
Since No Guard is bugged only when the move earthquake is used, how about ban earthquake + no guard instead? Therefore, people would still be allowed to use No guard Machamps, just without using earthquake.
That is not the only reason.
Yes.
However, if you plan on starting the tournament after some moves/abilities are fixed, wouldn't that cause [glow=red]almost every participants[/glow] to modify their teams and re-send them to you and Chappy for verification? (which I think, would further delay the event and plus, would basically be repeating the "send your imgur album" step. I mean hey, if magic guard gets fixed, I'm sure 80% of the participants would want to use Clefables in the tournament..)
