So, how many slots are there for each tier?

Also, does the manager of the winning team win a plush?

whens the auction
We apologize for the apparent lack of communication but a lot of work has been happening behind the scenes, including setting up the auction and we've managed to organize it for tonight at 9pm Eastern Daylight Time (-4). We thank the UU community for its patience and continued interest in what will be, easily, one of the most competitive UUPLs to date.

The auction will take place in the PS UU room (bott pending), and we will be releasing the format for the tiers momentarily. See you all tonight!

the necessary second part to that conversation:

[2016-04-17, 11:10:56 AM] Aaron (kink): I straight up thought
[2016-04-17, 11:10:58 AM] Aaron (kink): it was socialist
[2016-04-17, 11:11:03 AM] Aaron (kink): goddamn matthew
[2016-04-17, 11:11:16 AM] Hogg: the banner and the #champagnecampaign hashtag
[2016-04-17, 11:11:19 AM] Hogg: didn't seem out of place to you?
[2016-04-17, 11:11:43 AM] Hogg: we're some real high-living socialists
[2016-04-17, 11:11:47 AM] Aaron (kink): dude champaigne is the drink of the bourgoise
[2016-04-17, 11:11:50 AM] Aaron (kink): I thought you succeeded
[2016-04-17, 11:11:54 AM] Aaron (kink): where lenin and trovsky failed
[2016-04-17, 11:11:59 AM] Hogg: we will share the wealth
[2016-04-17, 11:12:02 AM] Hogg: and there's a fucking lot of it
[2016-04-17, 11:12:04 AM] Aaron (kink): LOL
[2016-04-17, 11:12:06 AM] Aaron (kink): pretty much
[2016-04-17, 11:12:14 AM] Aaron (kink): CHAMPAIGNE FOR EVERYONE
 
Also, does the manager of the winning team win a plush?
I feel this was indirectly pointing at me haha. Well I have to ship off Vapo's Hogg's prize and then I have another event coming up where I give away a plush. If I do do something, I was thinking of a custom plush made just for UUPL and it can be a traveling trophy to the winning managers. If anyone has any good ideas let me know.

Managers have agreed upon a mutual format.

4 Oras / 1 BW / 1 DPP / 1 ADV / 1 MANAGER = 8 total.

If there are any questions, you may ask them here.
 
Huh, I thought manager was at least going to be some rad bo3 or something. You sure it's definitely going to be just ORAS in that slot? :/

really? i'd lean towards 2 bw slots and 3 oras slots tbh bw is frequently played and 3 oras seems enough considering manager is going to be oras too :|

Gathering 8 opinions will ultimately result in a compromise. This is the best decision we could come up with. I know it's not necessarily all the flare people were hoping for, but it does represent the signups well; even the 4th string ORAS matches will be high caliber.

Manager matches are also ORAS Default - they can agree to any mutual change between them.
 
Hm, I didn't complain about that, though. I'm just genuinely curious if the manager slot is going to be ORAS or a BO3 (ORAS BO3 or multiple gens); after all, every manager is a very high caliber player and getting more matches between those kinds of players seems great to me, and beneficial to everyone if Battle of the Week is anything to go by.

The manager bracket is whatever gen the managers decide, defaulting to ORAS if a decision can't be reached.
