Hello everyone, I'm glad to announce that the first edition of the Ubers Winter Tour will start off with the selection of team managers. Only post in this thread if you would like to manage a team – all other posts will be deleted. Returning managers will have relatively stronger claims, but in the end we (the UWT hosts and Ubers moderation teams) will be selecting the managers that we believe will make for the best UWT. You must signup in this thread to manage. You must be active for the entire tournament (approx. 2 months) and be capable of sending in weekly lineups on time.

I'll be with MrAldo hosting the tour.

Some important general rules:

1. Managers are allowed one (1) Assistant Manager.
2. Managers and Assistant Managers may self-purchase prior to auction for 20,000 credits each.
3. Each team will be granted 130,000 credits.
4. There will be ten (10) starters and three (3) substitutes: the minimum number of players on a team is thirteen (13).
5. The maximum number of players on a team is twenty-six (26).
6. Just as with SPL there will be a severe penalty for any team that picks up a known alt of a banned player, or any player masquerading as another person. It is important to establish that both parties will be penalized immediately and appropriately if they are found doing so.
7. Each week, Managers can "boost" one slot, making it worth 2 wins (if both teams boost the same slot, it is worth 3 wins). After 5 weeks of competition, the top two teams with the most individual wins will then advance to finals.

The tentative tiers that will be featured this year are:

- Best of Three SS
- SS
- SS
- USM
- ORAS
- BW
- DPP
- ADV
- GSC
- RBY

Note that the RBY slot may be dropped and replaced for an other tier depending on how many signups we get for it.

We are considering six teams, contingent on signups, so don't be afraid to signup.

Signing Up:

At minimum you must include the following in your post. If you do not yet have an assistant manager, leave it blank and edit when selected. Have your assistant manager confirm by liking the post. An assistant manager is highly encouraged. Both the manager and the assistant manager will have the option to self-purchase prior to auction for exactly 20,000 credits.

Assistant Manager:
Team Name:
Significant Team Tour Experience (Tour / Role):
Bio (quick intro on who you are):


Signups will be open at least until January 9th.
