Well, I have my eyes on some of these. The order of priority of which metas I would want is:
1. Haxmons
2. No Haxmons
3. Pure Metagame
I have a lot of experience in Haxmons and No Haxmons and plan to be playing pure meta a lot now.

I would like to vote but can you explain the meta's for us?
This will make it easier to vote.

Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Eneomas on August 08, 2013, 10:19:42 pm
some suggestions:
Abi'ity exchange
Challenge cup
Challenge cup 1v1
level 1000 harvest leppa berry Metronome battles
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Snaquaza on August 08, 2013, 10:30:24 pm
well a few things

On the CC's, they are random, so not entirely fair if you try to get a highscore
Ability Exchange: We don't have the meta ;-;
level 100 Metronome: Gimmicky and luck based
also, we have only 4 spots to use for these awesome metagames :)
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Eneomas on August 08, 2013, 11:01:34 pm
well, it was worth a shot!
I'll try and do more (like frird/ prise) 2morrow, had a busy day today (trip to a big city)

Post by: sadold plz on August 10, 2013, 09:21:12 pm
Wait how does this work? Is it Showdown?
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Snaquaza on August 10, 2013, 09:22:33 pm
Yes it is showdown, if you want to qualify you gotta prove to me or Wolverine / SpartanMalice that you are good enough
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Snaquaza on August 10, 2013, 09:43:37 pm
I am close to qualifying myself for haxmons place, if anyone has objections, plz say it :)
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Eneomas on August 10, 2013, 09:55:57 pm
i beat you in it muhahahaha...

No ofcourse i don't have any objections. the leader of haxmons would obviously become you. why did you think i didn't run? also, enjoy it
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Snaquaza on August 10, 2013, 10:06:39 pm
I don't know if that is bcuz I can choose or if I am good at haxmons..

@Eneomas, can you answer this
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Snaquaza on August 11, 2013, 03:57:20 am
Try to vote for meta's to get in this way, of course from the choosable options
Example:
- (Meta), (explanation)
- (Meta)
-- (Meta), (explanation)
- (Meta), (explanation)
--- (Meta)

They can maximally be 5 meta's minimally 1, any explenation after a comma, any preference, do it in stripes, - = first preference -- = second preferende --- = third preference

You can run for maximally 3 Metagames to become leader of, to get in, you got to prove yourself to me and/or Wolverine/SpartanMalice to qualify
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Zyphirex on August 11, 2013, 04:19:49 am
- Pure Meta, It offers a very different playstyle. Pokemon are far more individualized due to the lack of TMs, and many Pokemon get new niches.
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Eneomas on August 11, 2013, 12:41:31 pm
@ snaq, i didn't run, as i knew you would be better, and because i wanted you to get it, as i know it's your faveOM ( mine too actually)!
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Snaquaza on August 11, 2013, 12:44:24 pm
okay thnx, I guess that I'll give it then, if anyone has objections tho, please say it :)
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Eneomas on August 12, 2013, 12:01:17 pm
let's get this clear; runners:
Zypherix: pure meta/ no haxmons
Eneomas: Highest stat meta
Present: Tier Shift
Scarf Wynaut: STABmons
Meloetta: Doubles (?)
Naminé: tier shift/ no haxmons(?)
Sadold: No Haxmons.

Leaders:
Haxmons: Snaquaza
Balanced hackmons: Adrian Marin
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Eneomas on August 12, 2013, 12:08:38 pm
oh, and i vote for Highest stat Meta to get in, because it requires some creative teambuilding, as every mon only has a small amount of teams itcan be in (except for 100 across legendaries), and choice items, and life orb are banned, requiring some other way to boost those stats/ make use of items.
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Meloetta on August 12, 2013, 04:45:31 pm
And how do I prove myself?
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Snaquaza on August 12, 2013, 05:37:37 pm
Battle a LOT against different people while doing well and winning a good percentage, also you must ask me or SpartanMalice to watch otherwise we can't judge
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Meloetta on August 12, 2013, 06:39:02 pm
Great. I'll host an "Epic Quest to 2000" with Tervari and the Lab soon ;-)
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Eneomas on August 12, 2013, 08:08:36 pm
looking forward to it, but when?
(please later than thursday, then i have my good old laptop, as base of operations!)
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Snaquaza on August 12, 2013, 08:26:27 pm
you can do it whenever you want
(Getting a good ladder rating is also okay to prove yourself)
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Snaquaza on September 05, 2013, 07:53:08 pm
Haxmons: Snaquaza
No Haxmons:
Balanced Hackmons: Adrian Marin
STABmons:
Tier Shift:
Extra Tag Battle: If gets programmed it will replace something

Post by: Eneomas on September 05, 2013, 09:05:25 pm
I'm still going for hsm, and still have a long way to go. I will get there eventually. I really hope some other runners come in soon   ;) .
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Snaquaza on September 15, 2013, 05:17:51 pm
so what do you guys think of the list? any that should be replaced and what should be going in too, remember that for some meta's we need permission of the owners and post replays to let us check if you should be leader of something.
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Eneomas on September 15, 2013, 05:19:51 pm
My battle log (hsm only):

Every battle I do in hsm will be recorded here (if I get permission to SR).
wins: 3
Losses: 5

Okay, this is taking too long, everyone who wants the position, say it here and why and say when you are available to test
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Eneomas on September 21, 2013, 10:57:19 pm
still hsm'ing... but not that good. :( I hope I will once become leader, but honestly, I think I'll be Moderator before I get LEader :(

Sorry I would love to but for some reason Showdown stopped working on my browser (Google Chrome)
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Eneomas on September 21, 2013, 11:14:39 pm
it works fine on mine (also chrome)

Why do you not retry?
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Wolverine on September 23, 2013, 07:31:38 pm
I'll run for STABMons, and Ability Bridge if it gets approved.

Ability Bridge ? A lot of people from here are playing it now, afaik. It's a very fun and unpredictable meta, being one of the most active metas atm, I'd be surprised if it wasnt here tbh.
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: cofagragus on September 24, 2013, 04:14:16 am
Umm no I think its just maybe Windows 7 or something it used to work until Showdowns all like "Weve got a bloody good update that makes none of your browsers work!!!!! >:)"

For Balanced Hackmons, please disable Mega Evolutions if possible since mega evo's can't be used in gen 5, ty :)
Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Snaquaza on October 28, 2013, 10:53:39 pm
Welcome to Tervari Olympics, our all own competition with Other Metagames.
This competition includes some popular and well-known OM's such as STABmons and Monotype, but also rarer but still fun OM's like Haxmons and No Haxmons.

At this moment, you can't try to beat this competition yet, but luckily you can still sign up, actually most of the OM's are still untaken, the complete list of open OM's is:

No Haxmons (Completely no Hax happens, most notably, no misses, no crits and no secondary effects)
Highest Stat Meta (All Pokemon must share the highest Base Stat they have, for example, Excadrill and Garchomp for Attack)
STABmons (All Pokemon get access to any move that has the same type as any of their typings)
Tier Shift (A Mod that changes the Stats of lower-tiered Pokemon and gives small buffs to them by small Base Stat Total increases, which get bigger the further you go down the tiers)
Monotype (All Pokemon must be of the same Type)
Ability Exchange (You can switch the abilities of any member of your team, with a few exceptions, around as long as all Abilities that would be in originally, are still in)

Also there are Two OM's which are open to discussion and can be whatever you'd like, ranging from Gen 1 OU to Fail Cup.

But how would you qualify to be good enough, well there are basically three options, the first one is to battle a lot and show your live battles to Snaquaza or Wolverine, they'll see if you're good enough then, if you win enough battles and if you make good predictions and such.
The second way to become a leader of an OM is by making an archive here, while this can be a bit less accurate than live battles, it makes it easier for some of you to get it because they might not be online while we are. When we look at the replays, we'll mostly look at how you played and if your opponent was anything decent, not if you won as wins can be easily manipulated by only putting links in your archive.
The third and last way is by getting a 2000 Glicko2 Rating in the respective OM on main, or in case of Highest Stat Meta, a rating of 2000 with the team in OU.

You can be nominated for a maximum of 3 OM's, you can nominate yourself by posting in this thread, we prefer you to it that way, but if you really don't want to do it that way, it is possible to say it to Wolverine or Snaquaza and they'll still look at you. If you post your nomination, please also add why you like the Tier, who you are, what your PS name is and if you want, why you want to join Tervari Olympics.

In addition to getting OM Leader, you will get a permanent Room Mod in the Tervari Olympics room, as well as possibly extra benefits that have to be discussed first.
Edit: Another benefit will be a custom title on this site.

A Leader will be replaced if he refuses to accept challenges or is away for 2 weeks without giving a warning beforehand, no excuses. If you go on holiday, we'll find a temporary replacement, but you gotta warn us before you go away. Also, if a league seems to be failing to do it's duty and isn't good enough anymore to be an OM Leader, he can get replaced, however we'll try to avoid this and only do it when it's necessary.

Once the league has started, you must challenge every leader in the league if you would like to try to beat it. After every leader you get an amount of points, this amount is equal to the amount of Pokemon you had left at the end of the battle, unless you forfeit, then you get 0 Points. This means that, with 10 OM's, the maximum points is 60, an extremely high score that you can only get by 6-0'ing every leader in the league and that won't be easy.

Hopefully we will get it automatized on PS to and make a command to let the league work automatically, but because that's quite complicated at the start, every match will be needed to be saved and send in a pm to Wolverine or Snaquaza.

We'll make a leaderboard and hopefully a command on the Tervari Server (http://tervari.psim.us) on PS so that you can view it anytime. Also we might add more benefits, so be sure to stay tuned, but you have the honor anyway, plus it's fun!
Edit: Other benefits for the top 3 will be a custom rank (most likely will be Ω) and a room driver (if you don't have it already) at the Tervari Olympics room

Title: Re: Tervari Olympics
Post by: Meloetta on November 03, 2013, 09:59:55 pm
S this is pretty much Smogon Frontier with Other metas. Tip: there should be,one uberleader, all people who are a leader of a metagame can go battle eachother. The person with the most points is uberleader.
