Ladies and Gentlecars. The server is back up. It's in exactly the state it was when it went down. And that's the problem. We have no ORAS updates. Meaning we are effectively an XY server. We do not intend to stay that way, but for now, if you want some XY, play on Breakdown.
Big Changes on the way:
We will be updating to ORAS, duh.
Emergency Tier vote. Will be posted up soon, everyone's vote counts the same as always. No nominations stage.
CANG will be its own game. We will be removing all moves, Pokemon, types and abilities from the base game from CANG. It will still be played with Pokemon models and it will still be played on Pokmon Showdown. But maybe not someday ^_^
Breakdown's bot Hastur got older, you know, because we were gone for like 6 months. He likes Naruto now. Believe it. (He asked me to say that.)
Events on the way:
Clan season. Gonna be hype. My roommate hates clans so it's going to be fun.
Fantasy Pokemon. Remember Fantasy Pokemon?
Use this thread to suggest new events. Be willing to do most of the work of whatever your event is.
This Reporter and the server's own Empress Trace have started a fanfiction:
If you don't care then fork you. I'm talking about something beautiful. Darth Vader and Ted "Theodore" Logan, yep that Ted "Theodore" Logan, meet up on a beach and Ted shoots Darth, that's how the story opens. The story is told in reverse chronological order and we make it all up as we go, we're going for a ton of characters from a bunch of canons, we want it to be nuts. Read, review, send out a tweet with the link. It could very easily be a big thing, people just have to cooperate. http://archiveofourown.org/works/3754339/chapters/8333431
TL;DR Read the story and review it, if you don't you're a trash member. http://archiveofourown.org/works/3754339/chapters/8333431
