Brief backstory: Following the Landorus-I ban from regular SS Mono, both Mono AAA and Mono STABmons were affected because their banlist includes that of regular Mono's. Mono STABmons followed suit and banned Lando-I soon after Mono's announcement was made while Mono AAA did not announce anything so it was technically banned therein. Then, the Mono AAA council decided to free Lando-I about an hour ago here.
The decision is Lando-I will remain banned from AAA in Week 3 of MWP III.
Please use this for transparency
SS Monotype: Banned
Mono STABmons: Banned
Mono AAA: Banned (Week 3 only -- After Week 3 it will be allowed back.)
Mono NatDex: Allowed
As a forum mod, I will be requesting the Mono OM councils to remove the mention of abiding by SS Mono's banlist and ban Pokemon on your own accord. Using SS Mono's banlist does not translate to OMs well and makes future SS Mono bans more confusing than they need to be.
Wanka was active early on, but has communicated that he will be withdrawing from the tournament. He has his reasons for this and he's not being malicious, but signups clearly state players are expected to be active through the entirety of the tour. Regardless of intent, players quitting midtour negatively impact their team.
He'll be removed from this tournament, banned from participating in MWP IV and infracted for failing to maintain an acceptable level of activity the entire tour. The Tsareenas will be allowed to pick up a player from the remaining pool of undrafted players. The player will be unable to play this week, but will be eligible to play starting Week 5.
Additionally, Ticken and I are going to extend the deadline for trades and inactive players exchanges until the end of Week 4. The deadline had originally been the end of Week 3.
