As always, once a challenge date has been set, you have one week to respond (and counterpropose a better time to battle if need be); if there is no response, you will be considered disqualified and your challenger declared the victor.
May the odds be ever in your—wait, hang on, that's... not quite right, is it?
Good luck, everyone, and have fun!
I'm ready whenever you are.
Looks like this little fairy tale seem to end well after all.
Wow. Just wow. Didn't expect to win that one. All my congrats to Novastorme too. Still can't believe I won.
I enjoyed every moment of it. Thank you. That's the kind of battle I'll quite happily lose everyday, the ones where you but all your energy into it, not because you want to be the best, but because you want to have as much fun in it as possible.
As lovely as my team was, it just didn't contain my Mamoswine.
Or, you know my ladder team. But I thought that may have been a bit too mean.
Weekdays after 6:00 Eastern Standard Time usually work for me. I will be in and out through today as well.
I'm pretty much free to do it whenever now. Want to try for tonight?
I'm EAIUBEROverlord on Smogon
Let me know when is best for you, and we shall see when we shall duel.
Lost by a landslide https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7doublesou-742131239
You didn't reply to my email about the new challenge date. Fortunately I'm free for a good chunk of tomorrow, so let's agree to meet up in the writing room @ 8:30 pm your time on that day. We cool?
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7doublesou-742035570 I did my best, I have no regrets. I might even use this team for random matches in the future :)
The results don't do EPL justice. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
I mainly use the email that's clickable for PPC things now. I should be free today at 8:30pm my time, however in your email you say BST is 3 hours ahead of you, but BST is 5 hours ahead of EST. (I'm still free at 10:30pm my time as well so it doesn't really make a difference).
Novastorme
Because I've been here almost an hour at the moment. I am BST at the moment, so assuming you are East Coast, you should be 5 hours behind me (and so it should be almost 6:30pm for you). If you're not actually 5 hours behind me I apologise for not showing, but as this is it's the second time we've missed each other. Please also let me know if you're going to be on as a name other than EPL (like I'm Ihavenoinsurance on Showdown). I'm really looking forward to this battle so I hope we can sort this out.
Novastorme
I go by LostGirl on Showdown, I'm really sorry about the confusion, meet you back in Writing @ 8:30 your time tomorrow
Sorry about all of this. I'll see you then.
I'm free almost all weekend—afternoons EST would be your best bet to catch me.
I should be able to carve out some free time today. Considering it's the afternoon we could do it within a couple of hours if you're free?
And in that challenge he had some 'mons, for [EAIUO].
With an Aurorus here
An Aurorus there
Here a 'rorus
There a 'rorus
Why are there so many 'rorus?
Old Huinesoron gave a challenge - [EAIUO]!
Anyway, you can see how seriously I'm taking this. ^_^ [EvilAI]UberOverlord, I challenge you! I'm, er... pretty much around from ~8pm until ~10pm UK time most days, though I may be able to wiggle that one way or the other, depending. So if you propose a day and time around that, I'll see what I can do.

Either at the earlier part of that or the end part. I'll know more Saturday morning Eastern Time, when exactly I am available. But I suspect 8:00 your time is best for me.
Let's see... in theory I can probably shuffle the day around to be present at any time during Saturday afternoon(UK)/morning(Eastern). Or any time before... quarter past 8 or so in my evening, so if you want 7pm / 2pm Eastern, I should be free.
(Of course now I need to decide which of my team I'm bringing along...)
hS
... it looks like on Saturday, 8pm to 10pm is the time I CAN'T do. So can you do earlier?
hS
Looks like I will be free most Saturday.
I'm Huinesoron on Showdown; should be all logged in now.
hS
I'm free for the moment, would a match be possible now, or when would your Skynet agenda for the world would allow for a match if not?
(Someday, Huinesoron. Someday.)
If not today, I might be available after 6:00 Eastern Time Tomorrow. And usually after 6:00 Eastern during the week.
Assuing you're talking about 6:00 AM, Tomorrow shouldn't be a problem. Or rater today now.
After 12:00 Eastern Standard Time
You can drop the challenge at any moment you prefer.
See you later.
I meant PM. I am only free after 6:00 (18:00) Eastern Time
... I shall make a team using all the things I've learnt, such as always having Brick Break to hand, and making sure to spread out your weaknesses.
/But that is not this day/.
hS
I'm available from about 7+ PM for weekdays, although that might be variable by an hour, and my weekends are pretty free.
7+ PM Eastern.
Let's try for Thursday, otherwise if there's an issue on my part I should be good for any day after that as well.
Any time both of us are free that night really. I can message you on discord for whenever I'm ready and then wait for you.
That sounds good. I'll see you then!
Admittedly, it might have just been me being later than expected, but were you on? If so, sorry about that. Got an open time this weekend?
It was a pretty one-sided match.

Both for winning the battle and being the first person in a long time for using a move which I have no idea what it does.
Whenever's good for you, mon brave. =]
Who will win the Pewter Cup? Anyways, It's time for a Death Battle!
Congratulations, Scapegrace! I mean... sort of congratulations. You've been the Silver winner twice so far, so this is kind of a step down... but on the other hand, Pewter! It's not many contests that even offer that. ^_^

It's my own stupid fault, though - I built my team for singles combat and couldn't be bothered to change it up for a doubles tournament. Oh well. My team got bodied by Trick Room pretty hard anyway, which, well, I knew that was a thing but I didn't expect it. =]
I'm a lot less free than I was in previous years. I can't do 8:30am-7pm BST weekdays because of work (and travel and eating), but I should always be available after 7:30pm. I'm also (slightly) more free on weekends besides 1pm-6pm on Saturdays (D&D time) and 1pm-6pm Sundays (family time)
My schedule's a little crazy now, too. The end-of-semester pileup is real and stressful...buuuuuut I think I can carve out a little time Sunday morning. Does 10:30 am my time (I'm on the East Coast) work for you?
I'll see, I'm not sure if I'll be doing family stuff then or not.
unless I say otherwise. Sorry about this.
My username on Showdown is Ihavenoinsurance, and you'll find me in (amongst others) the Writing Channel.
Because I am dumb and forgot to put it in the above post.
Here.
