Non-competitive trainer's hangout mk. III

[Blaziken10285]

Mine will be at the end of GF or maybe at the beginning of a second fic, one that will come out post-GF.

[Gokuzaru]

So by an interesting challenge, was his in the style of a fic (a story of him arriving and challenging you?

yeah, it was. short but quite nice. ive been thinking about writing my own fic like you guys too, just wish i had the time.

I barely do, but it is something worth making time for, if you would like a biased opinion.

Just to be clear so everyone knows, Any transaction with me (This includes Gym Battles, Casuals, Trades, and whatever other possible request) will have to happen from 7:00pm to 9:30pm EST, that is the only window I have for wifi access.

Also if you challenge me to a Gym battle please include your FC in your post if it's not in your sig, or if you're not a Gym leader (I'm at lookin at you Wartiger). I prefer to not have to go on a full scale epic (yet futile) adventure to find someone's FC.

So, since I haven't read all the fanfics, I have a question: Has the new (this one) Journeymen League been established in any of them?

A chapter or so ago I mentioned Glover joining the league and that we adjusted to include nine leaders rather than the classic eight. But no "official" change yet.

[TheNorthWind]

I've been thinking about writing my own fanfic...not sure if I want to...

[ThePhoenixarisen9]

I'm going to do an interesting challenge. I'm going to go and complete all of my games, starting with ruby up. It'll be:

Ruby
Sapphire
Emerald
FireRed
LeafGreen
Platinum
Heartgold
Soulsilver
White

And possibly Diamond and Pearl.

Naturally, this will take a while, so don't go and request challenges or whatnot. Don't worry, I'll find the time to work on my team. Wish me good luck!

Hey I can't figure out how to put the badges I have earned into my signature when I tried and someone said it was blank then again maybe someone gave me the incorrect web adress for his can anybody help me out please?

[Nox_Invictus]

*:342: Did indeed beat me after changing his team dramtically, and a disconnect when I froze one of his team members. Is that a legitimate win?

[Nox_Invictus]

These are my new rules, changed a bit after the last challenge. Please look them over before challenging me.
Rules: ((Additions/changes to the standard rules.))

If somebody disconnects upon my obviously having the upper hand, or changing their team after an unintentional disconnection, they are required to not only wait quite awhile ((See below.)) before they can rechallenge, but also need to form a written apology on the club page itself.

Challenges from now on are two out of three. If you lose, you may rechallenge me two to three days after the previous challenge, schedules allowing.

You may only have two legendaries, from the same gen.

You may not have any doubles of pokemon, or items carried. Period.

[TheNorthWind]

I'm not apologizing when I did nothing wrong.

Wow... Two weeks, isn't that kinda long!? Some of these rules (sorry) just don't seem fair.

[Nox_Invictus]

Then don't challenge me. And :342:, until you do as the rules say, I won't accept challenges from you. Now, I've got two more challengers to get ready for, so if there's anything else, I have a private message inbox and Facebook.

[TheNorthWind]

I quit. I'm done with this league

[Blaziken10285]

My newest chapter, Julius and Juliet, is now up. If you get the time, please read and review it!

[Feralninja]

Sonofa... History paper > flame war. I really don't have time for this.

Look, I've got more important things to take care of tonight than your petty squabbling. We're going to settle this quickly and quietly. I'll be talking to you both privately, and that's the last we're going to hear on the matter, understood?

Now, here's what I have to say with the other group members as my witness:

Nox: Blazi is right. Two weeks is much too harsh. I impose the "day and a night" policy so challengers have a time to look back over the battles, realize what went wrong, and prepare better next time. It also gives both parties time to cool off and continue on with a clearer head and no hard feelings. So, I would say that three days is the most you can make someone wait to challenge again. However, if there are circumstances in life that prevent a rematch for some time (like I currently have with wartiger, I'm booked solid for the next two weeks), then, fine, so be it, we're all people with our own lives. But you barring someone from setting up a match that long? No, we're a league for fun, and that's just spiteful.

342: You're not three. There are better ways to solve your problems than running away. Let's settle this like adults here. We'll figure out what happened, and move on.

Also, Blazi, I apologize, I've had a lot on my plate recently, I swear I'll get around to read/reviewing your fic ASAP. Which, you know, may well be two weeks from now... :/

[Blaziken10285]

Feral: that's fine, whenever you get around to it, and I can completely understand the overbooked feeling. Thanks for even remembering!

[dracoburn]

The apology bit is my rule, too. But I'm not sure I'd make someone wait quite that long. Maybe a week. Or just until they apologized.

This may just be a league for fun, but we do need to enforce rules to limit cheating as much as possible. I think Feral and I should have a discussion on "official" anticheating rules.

[Keyo61491]

Also the apology thing is kinda stupid and immature on your part Nox. This isn't kindergarten where something beyond our control goes wrong, and now you want to hear an apology just to feel right, when whatever happened wasn't the fault of the other person anyway. All though the majority of the pokemon community consist of children, you still shoud act as an adult, and asking for an apology when a connection error happens is really childish, and for the record, I was in the same room as 342 had his battle and I saw when the game disconnected. It was a "Connection Error", an uncontrollable occurrence that happens with anything that uses the internet. So instead of being children, drop it, move on, challenge again later.

[Nox_Invictus]

That's what I told him. Also. The apology thing isn't just my rule. I was told it would be a good idea to use by Dracoburn. And if you were in the same room, then you can attest that he called me a hacker, and yelled at the game more than once because I beat him multiple times.
