PJT ‘14 — Updates & Q&A

Tournament things. We’re busy-busy in the staff chat discussing final plans for the tournament this summer, and while we don’t have any huge updates to share with you, we’ve got a few things we thought you’d like to know and get involved with!

Updates

As you all know we closed sign-ups for the tournament almost a week ago, and shortly after opened sign-ups for stand-in positions. These stand-in sign-ups are still open with very few slots remaining. This is you last to chance to try gain a slot in our tournament, and we’d recommend putting your name down, even if you’re on the edge!

A few people have asked to be removed from the competitors list, and while we haven’t updated the list posted in the older article they have been removed. As such, the first two slots for stand-in draws have opened, another reason for you to put your name down! Stand-in sign-ups can be found HERE.

We had a couple of concerns about how we would be handling disconnections from battles should they occur. It’s difficult for us to have one single rule that applies to every circumstance. Because of this we have decided that should an opponent or yourself disconnect from a battle, you’re to inform a member of staff or someone helping run the tournament. We will decide the best outcome and allow things to continue as we see fit.

Q&A

As it’s you guys who will be taking part in the tournament, it’s important that you have all your questions and concerns addressed. We’d like to give this opportunity for you to ask any questions you may have in the comments, or through Twitter and we’ll do our best to answer them. We’ll also provide a summary article for the most pressing questions in a few days time.

Feel free to ask anything you’d like to know and we’ll do our absolute best to answer them!

  1. So, I found the song, and it may not be close to anything you’ve ever heard. I believe this is Russian Music, that I found in a Romanian Talent Show (fun fact, I’m from Romania). So, yeah. I’d like to see this, or bits and pieces of this song featured in JJ. Now it’s off to work I go. 🙂 Bye guys.

  2. My God I can’t stay away from this site can I?
    Just here to announce my May Giveaway!

    Topic: Create a Pokemon Creepypasta. If you don’t know what Creepypasta is, look it up. 🙂

    Rules: Be creative, NO copying other creepypastas. Be original. Be spooky, yet stick to Pokemon. Please don’t jump around different gaming series. Please, DO NOT BE SUCCINT. Please be as descriptive as possible.

    Winner: Winner will be determined through a score of 100. Every entry will be scored on the following…
    – Creativity (How creative are you with your interpretation?)
    – Uniqueness (How unique is your story?)
    – Relevance (Does everything make sense, and connect to one another?)
    – “Creepyness” (Do you get scared, shivers, after you read this story?)
    – Detail/Description (Does the reader have a clear picture of what your story is?)
    – Originality (How original are you with your topic?)

    Deadline: I’ll call a due date on Monday, May 12th, at approximately 5:00PM, Pacific Standard Time. So you have about a week to work on it.

    Prizes:
    Two Pokemon Shinies (Heliolisk and Espurr)
    The chance to be featured in Pokemon Jade Jungle as a scientist working for either Team Eda (take over the world using machines and factories) or Team Flora (restore the world to its original state)

    Prize Recieved: Your prize will be recieved on Saturday, May 17th, around 9:00AM, Pacific Standard Time.

    *If your creepypasta is created in such a way that it can be used in Jade Jungle, and the developers create an ingame location that is creepy, winning the contest will result in you getting your creepypasta featured INGAME, alongside an additional few points. 🙂

    Giving the creepypasta to me any time before the due date will result in loss of points. You’ll lose 2 points for every day prior to the due date, when you give it to me. (For example, you’ll lose 8 points if you hand it to me on Thursday, which is 4 days early.)

    Good luck, have fun, and be spooky!

    ~If this topic gets negative reception, the topic will be changed, the new contest will be posted sometime this week, and the deadline will be extended to June-ish.

  3. :O Guys, so in The Tower, PB looked like Martin, right? Buttttt how should she know what he looks like, if she’s never met him? Also, she acts weird whenever Finn says “only human”.

    • and dat when he returned to Jake
      His shadow was depicted with Two Arms even though he didn’t get a new arm

          • I want a Arm made of Stone
            Or the ability to meld stone and earth with my flesh to create elemental armoring
            I would be basically large arms make of stone and it would also be on my chest and back kind of hunching and there would be spikes on my back and running down my arms and i can create a “Armadillo Ball” covered with stone spikes
            They’re so big that they touch the ground

            Mostly physical strength and some magic involving spewing rocks and dirt via yellow green magic glow, burrowing underground (and breathing underground, and withstanding the pressure) and to fire stone bullets and needle from my palms

      • It’s foreshadowing for a future episode I neleie like when Finn lost his demon swit and jake returns, at the end a couple of leaves randomly
        Blow through the door foreshadowing the grass sword

  6. So, I’ve been playing competitive in various tiers, and i must say, the most devastating Pokemon I’ve used is Whiscash. No joke. Ddance+lum berry for burns is clutch af.
    Most unusual, but game changing pokemon ive used was special mega kanga

  7. Yay! my brother is working over time so he can get money for Pokemon Art Academy (He’s a srs artist) and Smash Bros Wii U!
    That means I don’t have to pay for them and I can just wait until he’s sick of them! 😀

  8. I swear. Watch Masuda pull a Sakurai and say their going to be remaking Pokemon Black and White. Then show off a Hoenn remake; 20 minutes later. That would be a great prank!

    • I’ve been playing wow
      But on the most darkest and vilest scum holes of all of Azoroth
      Dare i say its name?

          • I can’t disagree. I hate people, so I’d never play any MMos. Infact, i dont get into specific fandoms because i hate fandoms, especially the naruto and pokemon ones.

          • Because they are so insistent on what they like, and if you disagree, they try and lynch you on tha spot.

            i.e: a large portion of the pokemon fandom bows down to that overrated POS Red. they say if Red was the Main Character of an anime, Pokemon would do better. If all the games and manga starred red, it’d be better. Red>>>>>Ash etc. Its annoying. And when you try and tell them that Red sucks, they flip out.

            i.e 2: Pokeshipping. No pairing of two charaters deserves that name. Not AshXMisty, not nothing. If you say that Ash should bleep any female character other than Misty, a HUGE part of the fandom will try and cut your genitalia off. Misty imo was the worst female character, and had the least chemistry with ash,

            and even less when she showed up in gen 3 was it? But to sit there and say ASh sucks and needs to be replaced by red, only to turn around and say that ASh and Misty are the best Pokemon couple out there is just a bit ridiculous to me, dont you think?

            I mean, some of these fandoms get so defensive, that they think that just because you dont like what they do, they say that you are a hater, and are disrespecting what they like. and they call bs when you say that you can respect something, but not like it. its just irritating.

            unlike PJ, where we can just chill and share our opinions about Pokemon without backlash

    • I’d like to apologize for refusing to battle yesterday. I was only online to help a friend, trade with Gangplank Style, and do a few legendary battles with aforementioned friend. I still cannot battle, though. Sorry :C

    • I was ready, but there was a lack of communication between us. I told you my FC, because i didn’t have yours, and you never responded.
