Making a post to declare that, hurray, I've hit 100 battles! And 36 actual finished ones! That's a very impressive rate of around 1/3 that didn't disconnect. Add in the 11 victories my opponents have taken from me and assume they would have disconnected if I'd gained the upper hand, then that's 1/4 on the dot that didn't disconnect! 25 wonderful souls who actually know how to deal with a loss. Hurraaay, statistics!
Seriously though, I love each of you folks who stick around regardless of outcome.

WHoa man dont go revealing strategies and wht not
Someone went in this with a lvl 43 Archeops...
I believe I battled you.
My guess is he's Volteon.
I now have almost 6 battle videos that will be ready to upload to youtube including my match with lol95 as I will try to include better background music provided it works this time.
Today? I think I battled a Shiro but my wi-fi disconnected.
Finally managed to crack 1900 after two narrow victories against a 1775 and 1795 player.
First battle I had some parahax against me, but I managed to outplay him and turn it around. The second battle I got a clutch freeze hax on my opponent when going for a despiration Blizzard. He was frozen solid for only one turn, but it was enough for me to win.

Awesome news EE. I've been trying to get above 1850 today but no luck, D/Cs aside people have been getting a lot of hax against me today. I am starting to have fun though, rage quits seem to be less often now (fingers crossed) and I'm having to really think hard in order to win battles.
My thoughts are that if PO knows who DCs, Pokemon should be able to do the same. That's just me.
Gratz on the job, now you can rack some points and hopefully not encounter d.cers.
So far everyone I fought d.ced on me, all of them high 1600+ and even 1500s.
Atleast I know what it will be like to be at a vgc.
Sounds about right
Right,it was something about my WEP key being wrong and came out of nowhere. Fixed it so it shouldn't happen again.
Thanks!
Haha, and so far 10 DCers in a row, all ranging between 1411 and 1900. I haven't finished a fight yet, though I've won them all relatively easily with Amoonguss being the only thing to go down most of the time. Heh.
Unfortunately, while you know what it was like at the VGC2011, the metagame changes between each, depending on the allowed Pokemon. 2012 is gonna have pretty much everything released thus far, excluding certain Legends, of course. That's gonna be completely different from this.
I just wish I would have played smarter in my first actual VGC match in Atlanta. I feel like I could've won it if I'd gone straight for the TR, rather than trying to stupidly counter what I thought would come out, instead of focusing on team synergy. Ah well~
Oh, I'm not accusing Shiro* of disconnecting (I hope he didn't d/c at least). I'm just lamenting the fact that we couldn't finish that match.
Edit: or perhaps he did based on Massi's assessment.
How many people are still doing this? I've been waiting like 15 minutes for a battle.
Try pressing B while waiting, stop looking, and rejoin the competition or whatever. It usually takes me ~30-40 seconds to find a battle at most.
