    I'd like to challenge to be the new Normal type Gym leader if possible. You can ask Oz I have a wicked Normal type team ;)

    If not then add me to the roster.

    "Once you have accumulated 30 or more Ladder points, you are eligible to challenge a Gym Leader for their position as Gym Leader."

    Oz will be finished exams soon.

    Aaaaaand, here's the first Ladder, as an idea of how it's going to look from now on. I can probably be convinced to tone down the color intensity a few notches. My eyes! D8

    People (me included) still have a bunch of coursework/exams, so while there's no particular rush to get started, those lucky few who're already out of school should get crackin'. :fire

    Seratin and I initiated the ladder with a draw. Hurray! :D

    Assuming the ranking is automated, a Win/Loss ratio column and/or a Streak column would be nice - after all, statistics are half the fun.

    As a heads up, I probably won't be able to do any battling until my exams finish. Especially not this week: I've got a clusterfuck of exams happening right on my birthday. :/

    My bad. I r sorreh. As long as you have your win/loss/draws reported every time, it's not a problem. I'll add you in next week.

    If you can direct me to a program or find me a way to have those features, I'm all ears. As it is, I'm doing all this by hand in Excel then porting the data over into Photoshop to make it look pretty.

    Adjusted my team slightly by switching Skarmory for Magnezone. I guess my points (what few I had) can be reset.

    New Team Line-Up:
    Politoed
    Swampert
    Starmie
    Magnezone
    Vanilluxe
    Salamence

    Just battled Red and lost. I nearly won, but then that Lanturn turned up and took out half of my battle-worn team. :(

    EDIT: Beat Aekiel thanks to my trusty Milotic.

    For a Win/Loss ratio, you need to make appropriate columns. Then, you mark each players Points box and do a function that says (Box [Winning Column,player's row] x 2 - Box [Losing Column,player's row]) or something to that effect. For the actual Win/Loss ration make an additional column and add a function (Box [Winning column,player's row) / Box [Losing Column,player's row]).

    For a Streak column, you'd need to count by hand, as there's no way to do something like that automatic in Excel that I know of. It might be too much trouble for what it's worth, though.

    I'll see if I can't fix up a little program/script for Lutris to keep track.

    My Roserade trolled Seratin like a pro, so that's another win for me. :3
