Popular Post Arkhi Posted June 6, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted June 6, 2016 (edited) These are my MS Paint Skills Is it that time of year again? Nope, this here's a new event! Modeled after the ever-so-glamorous Winter Party, we're taking a crack at hosting our very first Reborn Summer PartyTM. Feel free to check it out! This party will be split into two times: an EU party and an NA party. The EU party will begin Saturday, June 18th at 5:00 PM GMT and ends 12:30 AM GMT. The NA party will begin Saturday, June 18th at 5:00 PM EST and ends 12:30 AM EST. Feel free to participate in both parties, if you'd like. Join us in the Summer Party chat room! So, what's gonna happen at the party? Well, let's check the calendar.EU Party Note that the EU party differs from the NA party. As the introduction of an EU party is a very new development, we cut some events out so that the NA party remains unchanged; the party was centered about NA, so this is our solution for the Summer Party. NA Party For each cell in which there's text, the event will begin then and continue for the next 30 minutes. Now let's get to the events. Fun in the Sun Here's the bread & butter for all our battlers out there- it's a little different than our last party tournament. Fire type tournament? OU tier? Nah, let's have some fun. This tournament's theme will be Fun in the Sun- teams must be related to the overall theme of Summer. Pokemon must be Fire-type, Water-type, evolve via Sun Stone, have relation to the sun, relation to the sea, relation to the beach, or general relation to the Summer season. And OU is lame, let's give the lesser-played tiers some love. So, this tournament's tier will be Tier Shift!Teams must relate to Summer. See above. The tournament tier will be Tier Shift (more details on Tier Shift here). No use of Ubers is permitted. Dual types are permitted. Participants in the tournament that are also partaking in Member Trivia must give priority to the tournament. So, you won the tournament? Your reward is a Larvesta carrying Morning Sun, sent straight to your Pokemon Reborn file. The reward will be shuffled down by battle winner if the higher-up winner does not accept the reward.The EU and NA parties will have separate winners, both of whose save files will be given the Tournament reward. Dubtrack - Live DJ Event We've got another live DJ event heading your way, with a change this time around. The DJs for the event will be Tacos (NA), Godot (NA), Zumi (EU) and any EU DJs willing to participate. The way Dubtrack works, each DJ will shuffle in and out of playing a song, each from their own playlists. Should demand for user-submitted songs be great enough, they may throw up your song suggestions- no promises yet. Check out Reborn's Dubtrack here!Member Trivia - Hosted by Kurotsune How well do you know your fellow Reborn members? Test your knowledge in the Member Trivia Game, where each player will take turns making and answering questions about the other participating members. For example, the first player will make a trivia question about one of the members and the person who is correctly guessed will make the next question about one of the members and so on. Feel free to participate and see who you really know...Queen's Game - To be hosted by Dan (EU also to be hosted by Dan) The Truth part of Truth or Dare. Users will be randomly matched one-on-one so that one user may ask the other a question- and of course, the one answering must be truthful. Questions may vary by theme, which means the topics may get carried away to a mature place of discussion. Participants are to be aware that exceptions for minor R7 questions are permitted. We operate under the Vegas Rule- what occurs in Queen's Game STAYS in Queen's Game. If this discomforts you, please do disassociate yourself from Queen's Game. We do not intend to discomfort users, and if you feel you may be off-put by this, you have the liberty to withdraw from the event. Please respect our exception to minor R7 content for this special event.King's Game - To be hosted by Dan (EU to be hosted by Dan) The Dare part of Truth or Dare. One user will be selected to choose a scenario that one or more other users must then act out, as per the dare selected. They're the king, you just gotta follow suit with what the king decrees. Like with Queen's Game, the theme may tread past R7. Participants are to be aware that exceptions for minor R7 dares are permitted. If this discomforts you, please do disassociate yourself from King's Game. We do not intend to discomfort users, and if you feel you may be off-put by this, you have the liberty to withdraw from the event. Please respect our exception to minor R7 content for this special event. The Vegas Rule applies to King's Game as much as Queen's Game.Story Time - New Event! (Hosted by Kurotsune) Just like it reads, Story Time is an opportunity for users to share stories- fictitious or not- with the Reborn Community. Most stories are welcome- drama, horror, humor, love, your tales of memes, whatever you think the community will like. Once again, this is a new event, so things may be shaky. Participants interested in telling a story may sign up here!Game Trivia - New Event! (NA only) As a parallel to Member Trivia, Godot's got your back. Just like Member Trivia, users will use the .buzz command on the server in order to provide an answer to the Game Trivia questions Godot has supplied. Again, new event, so things may be whack, yo. An explanation of the event will be given before the event begins if there are any questions.Smash Tournament - To be hosted by Shanco (Abbey Street) Any other events you folks would like to see at the party may also occur! Cards Against Humanity, Town of Salem, EpicMafia, BoardGame Online, anything's free reign. Feel free to host your own event if you think users will be interested! Hope to see you there! Edited June 18, 2016 by Big Kitty Dan Edited to reflect the return of Member Trivia as well as time shifts in both trivia games; additionally dan is running the event now so if anyone has problems pls direct them to him ok? ok. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Global Mods Ice Cream Sand Witch Posted June 6, 2016 Global Mods Share Posted June 6, 2016 The "please do disassociate yourself from Queen/King's Game" messages are mixed up. The one under Queen's Game says King's Game and vice versa. Cards Against Humanity!!! That needs to be a thing at this event! There was a game of it during the winter party after all the other events ended, though it wasn't official. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkhi Posted June 6, 2016 Author Share Posted June 6, 2016 The "please do disassociate yourself from Queen/King's Game" messages are mixed up. The one under Queen's Game says King's Game and vice versa. Good catch, thanks for pointing that out. I cannot recount the number of times I mixed up KG/QG, changed the time slots, changed the descriptions, changed them back, edited the time slots again, then redid everything. My brain is 150% bamboozled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flux Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Neat-o, this is a good reason for me to pop on the server again. Hopefully I don't work that day though. A quick question though - For member trivia, will the clue be about a member, and we have to figure out which member it is? Just trying to make sure I understand it right. Also, do we give permission to Rose here or through pm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developers Marcello Posted June 6, 2016 Developers Share Posted June 6, 2016 Welp, I'll probably miss Queen's/King's game because timezones, but I should actually be able to show up to this, which is more than I could do for the Winter Party.

Odybld Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 This is yet another Reborn event which is catering only to the western hemisphere timezones yet again, just like the previous installment. Also it is on a date when quite a number of members of the forum are still busy with university/college exams. I am not asking for any changes, I am just telling you. Evaluate these points as you wish. PS. Larvesta with Morning Sun. The most annoying Little Cup thing ever. burn heal uturn hazardremoval comein burn heal uturn comein burn heal uturn hazardremoval comein burn mynerves clickingx bai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyanna Cyril Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Would it be possible to get a game of like Epic Mafia or something similar to that during the event? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkhi Posted June 6, 2016 Author Share Posted June 6, 2016 If users would like that, someone should be able to host. I'll likely have my hands full with the events, but if anyone wants to organize that, go for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'd much rather have a party that's run smoothly than one that's just left unsupervised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Support Squad Felicity Posted June 6, 2016 Support Squad Share Posted June 6, 2016 All things considered, it's on a saturday night. School won't be on, people can certainly take one break from studying if they really wanted to for the night. A scant few people might be working sundays but otherwise this was literally the best possible way to make it accessible to europeans who're five or so hours ahead. For those further ahead, it'd take a whole lot more to cater to, My suggestion would probably be to shift the main events, King and Queen, a tad bit earlier. That's what everyone laments missing and, I wasn't there so correct me if I'm wrong here, the cards against humanity game after the event(?) that ICSW mentioned shows people were still pumped after those games. They're not exactly wind down events. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cool Girl Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 (edited) So what format should we build our teams? Also, I'll be attending the Summer Party! Can't wait! Edited June 6, 2016 by Cool Girl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonikku Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Ahem, I've been wanting to do another one of those music things for a looooong time. It's gonna be so lit, and I really look forward to the story time thing. :] Tier shift is gonna be fun too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mde2001 Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 So what format should we build our teams? Build it in Tier shift (an option under the other metagames category). You can look here for information about the metagame but remember to stay within the theme as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fumble Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Might want to change the link in the OP for Tier Shift to this one, since it's the updated metagame: http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/tier-shift-oras-swift-swim-unbanned-check-post-95-for-some-info.3554765/ Anyway, excited for the party~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cool Girl Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 I think what would be really helpful is to provide us with a list of pokémon that we can use for our "sun team" tier shift. If you guys would like me to clarify, let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonOfRed Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Solrock must be the only pokemon on every team as per "Fun in the Sun regulations" considering he is a sun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diana Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 You people stole my fucking queen's game. That was copyrighted by Spear Pillar. considering i'm the one that coined the term long before you even had spear pillar, nice try lmao the entire reason Queen's Game exists is literally because I wanted attention and wanted people to ask me questions so I could tell people shit about my life without bringing it up randomly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
