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.
thelinearcurve was recently tournament banned, and as such will not be permitted to participate in WCOP. Team Oceania must field another player to fill this group, and has requested that Golden Sun be moved from DPP to ADV and to substitute in a player for Golden Sun. Provided they receive approval from the other players in thelinearcurve's group (or their respective managers), this will be allowed.
Please note for future WCOPs that making a significant roster shuffle such as this will only be permitted in cases where a player is no longer permitted to play (because they were tournament banned, forum banned or otherwise removed from the team), and only if it occurs during the first 48 hours of the group stage. It is not intended to allow managers to shift their lineup after the groups have already been released.
While the players recreated the match, this game did not meet the standards for a recreate as per our timer policy, so that recreation is not considered valid. The original match results stand, and Santu wins by timeout. The recreated game is not considered an official game and will not count toward the tournament results.
Leru was recently tournament banned, and as such will not be permitted to continue participating in WCOP. Germany must select someone from their remaining roster to act as captain in Leru's stead.
Lavos is currently banned from the forums, and as such will not be able to continue participating in WCOP per our policy on banned players in team tournaments. US West is substituting undisputed over Lavos to complete the semifinals tiebreak.
