thanks for the memories
largely adapted from rozes' op
With the second wave of DLC upon us, we have decided that it would help to add another UU team tournament this year to further the progression of the tier. This means our likely start date will be November 23st for the first week of the tour, and will likely be 8 teams, so a 7-week regular season, and 2 weeks for playoffs. With SPL being pushed back a month as well, this will match up well with it and mean there is minimal overlap with official tours.
With that being said, we did not want a full SS tour, so the tiers for this tour will be as follows:
3 SS UU / 1 SM UU / 1 ORAS UU / 1 BW UU / 1 DPP UU / 1 ADV UU.
Some of you may recognize this as the exact assortment of tiers we established for the recent UU World Cup tournament. This may change before player signups, but we do not foresee adding additional tiers, so it would mainly be changing up the number of a particular slot or removing one altogether.
Like mentioned earlier, we are looking to have 8 teams, and that is the purpose of this thread. Post below if you would be interested in managing, and feel that you could commit to staying around for the entirety of the tour. Managers will be able to purchase themselves, but it will be in lieu of a round 1 pick in order to keep it fair. As it is a Snake Draft, the pick order will be randomized and announced a couple of days after player signups. There will be either 10 or 12 rounds of drafting; this will be discussed among managers / moderators.

With all that out of the way, these are the qualifications we are looking for; managers will be chosen based on experience in UU tournaments, involvement in the community, competence, and historically demonstrating good behavior. If you're signing up, include solid reasoning as to why you would be a good manager based on these qualities. No shitposts masquerading as sign-up posts, so no "in" posts, please. Team names will be decided once all managers are picked.
If you plan on playing as a manager, do remember to sign up in this thread as well.
Signups will remain open till this Friday the 13th.
