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.
the weekend is a bit tough for me since I can’t play from my Friday @ 2:30pm until Saturday night @ 7pm and New Years is that Sunday evening, but I can do my Friday morning/your Friday night pretty easily. Would let’s say 10:30/11 am my time work?
