  1. IGN: Zinsmiter Current Rating: 1 Season you were on ladder: The very first ranked season in PRO and more. Example: November 2016 according to the Reborn bot among others. Vote: Remove the rule Reason: The rule restricts the ability to team test and have fun while also being competitive. Showdown is a great example of people playing like this. Many people wanna mess around on one account and take the game more seriously on another. It's not even a discussion whether this is the case or not. I've gone into detail with this more in the past so i shouldn't really have to write it all up again.
  2. start: 2m insta: 4.8m Rules ------------ Bets must be minimum 100k more than the last bet. Auction lasts: 48 hours Gl.
  3. IGN: Zinsmiter Playtime: 2392 hours PVP rating: 393 Vote for Nature Reroll Ticket: Yes Reason: The current random system is expensive, punishing and frustrating and only those with a mix of wealth and luck will be able to get the nature they desire after mostly a lot of frustration. This is an even bigger deal in the current PvP meta since legendaries are more meta than ever before so this system puts a limit on a lot of PvP players who might not be able to use teams with these top pokemon (such as Latios and Heatran). Another huge benefit is the ability to change nature for a specific set. Example switching between a Calm and Timid nature heatran for a specific team. This is pretty much unheard of with the current system. Vote for Birth Island: Yes Reason: Having only 1 of the same legendary seems to be in line with the game's, at least, previous philosophy but personally i don't mind either. I think it would be great to have the option to use more sets for the same pokemon (e.g. a calm and a timid heatran). The change to nature rerolls can help in this area though. You still won't be able to change nature on heatran from game to game unless you're so wealthy you don't care but at least it's easier than before. Giving players another way to get a competitive legendary without having the normal requirements seems good to me too. For some people, a Latios might be a reward for working hard on your pokedex. For others, Latios might be essential for their team and their ability to get on ladder if that's what they desire. There are many ways to play Pokemon. I don't think it's very fun for newer players to not be able to compete at the same level in the pvp meta because they don't have an hour requirement.
  4. Ban Because the combination does not exist in the real games.
  5. +1 It's not really a hard decision. The move/ability combination is illegal/incompatible in the real Nintendo games. Same with Poison Heal Gliscor and Defog. It doesn't have anything to do with Smogon.
  6. Dei =( Thanks for your work in the game. Good luck wherever you go from here :)

  11. Some rules: 1. I can remove my pokemon from the auction if i don't find any offer i like or decide otherwise. 2. Minimum +50k from previous BO. Auction Ending in 24 hours: Jul 02, 2017 7:33 pm
  12. I don't know who "you guys" are. I represent only myself here. And i don't know what you think i'm trying to find an easy way out of. If anything, it's you who is trying to find an easy way in winning since you want to limit some players to one account. Why should you tell me what to do? People can queue with different mentalities. Like many other games. On Pokemon Showdown it's common to make different accounts in order to play with different pokemon that are seen as less viable. I tried to say that i didn't only play different teams for doing cynical tests but it seems like no one got that point. Why should the time of the month decide when i should play what i want if i have time to play there? Why should i only be able to do what i want the first 3 weeks of the month or whatever if i wanna go for the ladder at the same time? And why should i have to contact other people personally and ask them to play with me? You don't know my relations with my guild or who i am or if i wanna use stuff and just queue in peace alone. You shouldn't decide any of this. It's clear that we got entirely different opinions on this matter so let's just agree to disagree. As for the rule, i'm just pointing out that there is a paradox where you get punished if you win and punished if you have to lose. A staff member recently told another player that he had to drop his second account off the ladder right away, so he basically told him to lose intentionally (even though that staff member didn't read the rules properly since it states "at the end of the season" but w/e). By "you guys" I am referring to everyone that wants this rule revoked. How on earth is making ladder more competitive by forcing people to use main teams making it easier for anyone to win? :| No one is telling you not to queue. I was simply giving you work arounds to the rule, not telling you "what to do". Besides, this is a "Ranked" ladder. Ranked. It's supposed to be competitive. Not only does this rule enforce that it also brings some life to unranked. I'm not sure if you were around when we had only unranked battling (I think you were, you are an experienced player here anyway, no disrespect what so ever), it actually gave battle chat life and people communicated with each other more than for just trading. I agree with the paradox and did hear of the incident... I do concede, it completely throws off any reason to have this rule. Surely you can't ask someone to lose on purpose... either enforce the rule to the point of "you were caught using two accounts on ladder, here's a temp ban" or dont enforce it at all. Because if people could only use their main account to queue and they wanted to play less powerful teams it would be easier for everyone else since that person is no longer a top 25 ladder contender, which is also what happened in season 3 (or something like that, long time ago) when i wanted to play whatever i wanted over playing the team i had that won the most and i had no alt account. I wanna see how well other teams i create do in the competitive environment without having to dump progress made with another team. Not goof around against opponents in unranked not taking the game seriously. And yes i was around at that time. Also, just to be clear. This isn't only about the current new rule. I wouldn't care if they chose to make it so alt accounts couldn't appear on ladder and wouldn't get any rewards. It's about the suggestions made here for new rules made to ban people entirely from just queue'ing on an alternative account.
