For anybody thinking about their decks - it appears Garbodor is bugged on ptcgo and can't be played in decks currently. If it stays that way it might force people to have to play potentially a different deck.

It looks like that is just for trashalanche garbodor and for tournaments (it gives the "cards from the newest set are not legal message" -- on the ptcgo reddit, someone indicated this was due to the new alternative art promo. So it should be fine for this tournament.

Final list. Everyone from April's overflow signed up this month, which is great!

It's funny. Literally every month since I started running these tournaments, we've gotten new people to sign up. If everyone stuck around and played in more than just one tournament, these would have been 128-man tourneys a long time ago.

So, as the regulars around here have probably figured out by now, I'm stepping down as PokeBeach TO. I'm doing this voluntarily; the staff and I are still on good terms (for once). While I could probably work two jobs and run the tournaments, I think it's better both for the players and my stress level that someone else takes hold of the tournaments. I think I've done a good enough job over the past fifteen months taking these tournaments and smoothing out the edges, making them run like clockwork, so I feel like my replacement shouldn't have much trouble adapting.

I still don't know who my replacement is - Sam only told me late last night that he had someone lined up. Hopefully I'll know sometime today and then I can get started on training them. Whoever it is, I hope you will all show them the same respect and enthusiasm for these tournaments that you have shown me.

Thanks for the ride, PokeBeach. It's been fun.

@PMJ Thanks for the work. I'm sure it's not easy corralling 96 trainers into a smooth tournament online. I've certainly appreciated the chances to play and compete online. Best of luck to you.
