Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Oh I agree it does, but it just seems very brief for an OP. Like if you look at the one I did for the Battle of Hoenn (http://www.smogon.com/forums/members/wintermute0.206275/) you'll see I pretty much just CP the regulations straight from the PGL, do a rundown and then provide my thoughts on what the metagame will be like.
I'll admit I'm just being nitpicky but it would be nice if it was just spruced up a bit (coz like I said, if I'm gonna tweet it I wanna make sure it makes us (Battle Spot) look good n_n)
