Huge thanks to Zarel for setting this up!
The Server's Purpose
There are a couple reasons why we wanted and now have a dedicated tournament server. The biggest being that it's a "safe" place for players to play without annoying users having free rein to troll the battle chats.
The other purpose being this is a server under the direction of Smogon leadership with low traffic, meaning battles should be able to be played here with minimum lag without having to use a third party server with unknown leadership or no Smogon moderator+ presence (mostly oriserver but also pokecommunity, etc.). This way issues in battles such as disconnections can be handled directly by either the Smogon tournament staff or sim staff watching the battle.
Special Rules in Place
The entire server is in modchat. What this means is that you cannot talk in the main chat, in battle chats, or in PM without Voice (+).
You also cannot challenge others to a battle without Voice.
How to obtain Voice
Everyone will only have 1 account with voice, and guess which one that is? That's right, your Smogon username. This allows us to know exactly who is saying what in battle chats and allows us to easily "place blame" if something were to happen.
You must be present on the server to obtain voice, and your Smogon account must be at least 1 month old. You have to link your Smogon Profile to a server administrator to obtain voice.
All SPL players will have voice.
Be very aware, misbehavior on the server can easily lead to infractions on the forum, largely the Poor Sportsmanship infraction. Do not take the server as a place to say whatever you want with only server-side reprimand. If the behavior is egregious it will carry over to the forums.
Staff Structure
All TDs will have administrative powers on the server, as well as regular Sim Admins from the PS main lobby. Sim Moderators on the PS main lobby will have mods. Senior Staff will have drivers if they want them. Everyone else will have voice.
If your Smogon username is already taken on PS
Post here with the username you'd like to be recognized with on the server, that way we can have a record with why we have an unknown username with voice on the server.
