IMPORTANT ANOUNCEMENT
Hey people, I'm sorry for this inconvenience, but I've has a good strong look at the signups, and have noticed that I sort of messed up with the stage selection. Round 11 is extremely unpopular, and I forgot to account for the tiershifts in April, so this is what we're gonna do: I'm presenting you with a revamped stage selection, and I'd ask all of you to update your signup posts to correspond with this revamp. I'll personally go through every signup post and VM those of you who have signed up for stages that will no longer be played, so that you're aware of the fact. Without further ado, this is what we're gonna be having in RUPL:
Stage 0 - Initial RU

So for those of you who posted "current", I'd like you to emphasize if you'd be willing to play only stage 15 (our "current" one atm) or also stage 16, which will no longer have Nidoqueen but will most likely have Houndoom available, going by our current usage stats.
I also am looking for a new manager to lead the Cherrygrove Cincinnos, as SilentVerse has stepped down. Oh yes, and we'll be having the auction this weekend, exact time has yet to be established as it has to fit for all managers, but I'll post it when we have a fixed date in this topics title. Once again, sorry for the inconvenience.

Alright people, the auction will be today, Saturday 23.03.2013 at 17.00 GMT +0
HERE is the spreadsheet of all the players and their respective stages. I've put the people who signed up for Current down for Stage 16 as well. If you have a problem with this, you can tell your manager, but as far as I'm aware most people will be looking forward to a metagame without Nidoqueen.
The auction will be held in #squiggle

Right, so these are the teams. The auction didn't have TOO much drama, so I'm a happy Cherub. Round one of the RUPL will commence the day of the tiershifts, so the day Stage 16 begins. This gives you all plenty of time to teambuild, cooperate with one another, get to know eachother a bit better, etc. I expect to have the Week 1 rosters from all the managers a day before we begin. Just to clear up any confusion, either one of the manager or the assistant manager from each team can choose to play for a week, but not consecutively. Massive, massive thanks to FireMage for operating the RUPLBOT like a pro, and to Earthworm for making it in the first place. Wouldn't have run nearly as smoothly without you guys, so yeah, I'm really grateful. Cheers :)

The Littleroot Lilligants trade Greencore for mostwanted of the Slateport Slowkings. Honko / Jellicent can confirm.
