Omega-Xis
Mauville's Own
Hey all! It's Omega-Xis, your Monotype Winter Premier host, here to kick things off! Anybody miss the Monotype OMs from MPL2? Well, some of them, like AAA, are making a comeback in the Winter Premier, along with some new formats like LC.
If you wish to manage a team in the Monotype Premier, please sign up with your team name and what you think qualifies you to be a manager. If you are planning on having any extended absence where you won't have access to the internet and be able to manage your team effectively, please don't sign up.
Managers will select the players for their roster in an 8-team snake draft. A snake draft is one where a team has the opposite pick in each round. A team with the 1st pick in the 1st round will have the 8th pick in the second round, the 1st pick in the third round, the 8th pick in the 4th round (1-8, 8-1, etc.) and so on. The draft is 10 rounds, meaning managers are selecting 8 starters to go along with 2 subs.
I also wanted to take a moment to let you know that if you wish to manage, you can play in the Premier tournament. If you wish to play, however, your team's first round pick would be used on yourself and you would not pick a player until your team's second round pick. Here's an example:
Signups will last until next Sunday, November 19th 11:59 PM EST (GMT -5). Do not post here unless you are signing up to manage; your post will be deleted.
If you have any questions, just send me a VM here on Smogon. I'll respond as soon as I can.

Team Name: Mauville Memers
Reasons you think you'd make a good manager: Have managed in each MPL and have fielded a competitive team in each, nearly making the finals in MPL2. I've been active in the community for a long time and would have a good idea of who to draft, especially for OMs.

The Mauville Memers have the third pick and Omega-Xis, the Memers manager, wishes to play in the tournament. Omega-Xis will have the third pick of the first round, and he will not "properly" pick until the sixth pick of the second round.
