This is the sign-up topic for the Team Challenge portion of the Oracle Challenge. With only about a week left until the first matches of the contest begin, I want to have this topic up and running so people have a sufficient amount of time to sign-up for a team.

If you have participated in previous Oracle Challenges under an established team (i.e, Predestined Divination with creativename/Ngamer64), there is no need for you to confirm your team name with your partner unless you wish to team up with a different user or use a different team name.

This topic may also be used if you are looking for a partner for the Team Challenge. You do not have to sign-up if you wish to participate solo and choose not to team up with a partner. Simply posting predictions in the prediction topic will enter you into the regular Oracle Challenge.

Prediction topic for the Wildcard Round and Round 1 - https://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/75275664


If you want to be in a team, this is the topic to confirm your team before the first matches of the contest begin. Once the first matches begin, you're out of luck if you want to be in the Team Challenge. If you are in a team, this is how it's gonna work:

1. Make just one prediction per match subject to the rules above - it counts for the Oracle Challenge and the Oracle Team Challenge!
2. Your team score for the day is equal to both team members' scores added together.
3. If one player misses a prediction, the team will get either (partner's score * 2) or (partner's score + average score for the day), whichever is lower. This is to keep teams from being eliminated by one missed prediction, and this ONLY applies to the team scores.

Hey guys, try to confirm your teams. Even for those who have a long-time established team that has participated in multiple Oracle Challenges, you should still post your team name to save me the trouble of looking up your team name. You do need to confirm your partner before the first matches begin, but confirming your team name is not subject to this deadline.

Current teams so far:

Team ??? - Menji/SwiftyDC
Team ??? - Steiner/bbbtime


Note: The word "Team" is not actually part of the team name itself.

I didn't list creativename/Ngamer64 since I don't have direct confirmation that creativename is even going to participate this year.

Wigs?


@WiggumFan267, do you want to team up with Wigs for Oracle Challenge?

For reference, the Nick/Wigs team was called RA-Dickeyulous THORacle. Do you wish to keep this team name or change team name for this Oracle Challenge?

It looks as though I won't be able to team up with kawaiifan for our usual "Team Kirby" which has been in place since the 2009 contest. She won't be participating in the Oracle Challenge for the first time ever, due to a combination of struggling with depression and having no interest in this contest.

As a result, I currently have no partner for this contest. If anyone wants to team up with me, it's got to be someone who is going to take the Oracle Challenge seriously.

Meche hasn't posted in three months, I'm assuming he's not going to make any predictions, so if anyone needs a partner I'm free.

Unlike Luster, I don't need anyone to take it seriously because with this contest I fully expect to be throwing numbers at the wall and hoping something comes of it. Good lord do I have no clue on this one.
