I don't understand why "6 Corners" is not acceptable while the "The Truth" and "ZPST" are in the first post. "Muskateers" makes even less sense to me than "6 Corners" ... "Muskateers" is a nickname that's even less official and less used. Plus the fact that 6 Corners & such is going to vary a ton. It's very much like the old SP Toolbox decks. The general idea is the same from deck to deck, but the specific pokemon might vary some.
Similarly names like "Zone/Eel" make perfect sense, but are exceptions to the kinds of names where you type out the full thing such as "Kyruem/Cobalion/Electrode".
Shinto, I applaud you taking this on. It's a lot of work, and you've done a great job. However, not listing "6 Corners" really bugs me for some reason. It was as if we couldn't say "LuxChomp" when listing decks from the last format. There comes a point where obscuring the nickname actually causes confusion. This said as much for the moderators as anything.

I've discussed the 6 corners thing enough, it just doesnt have defined components. I havent seen any that run Coalbion, and most i see only run 5 attackers, making 6 corners a huge misnomer. Some run Bouffalant, some Spinarak (aparently). I had asked someone advocatign the deck to shoot me what he thought the deck peramiters were and he never did. I'm aware Musketeers isn't used often, but i defined it ont he front page, and it was always supposed to be a placeholder, but as it says, they are "varients". I feel saying varients of cards which i define, makes a LOT more sense than 6 corner variants that are pentagonal.
As far as other things go, i've been working on a data analysis which will hit the website soon, and havent had the time to do much more than edit the results moreso than the names. But i'll be eliminating ALL nicknames after i can catch up on the data analysis and results calm down fromt he weekend. Zone/Eel to Z/P/S/T will be wiped off the front page soon, but i won't ask anyone to not report those names to me. I understand people are inclined to nicknames, but you have to remember, i'm not at most of these events! If you say 6 corners and it's Cobalion/Terrakion/Kyruem/Reshiram/Zekrom/Bouffalant, that plays signifcantly differently than the Virizion version! Or if its the more common Virizion/Terrakion/Kyruem/Reshiram/Zekrom version, its a lot more 5 corners. I'd love if someone who really believes in the deck would write an article on it so people have a better reference.
P.s.: The only nicknmae i've debated keeping is "The Truth'. Does anyone feel me listing the huge contents would make more sense than calling it something easier to look up? I an inclined to just call it the contents to meet the rest of the format, but if anything were to have an exception, it would be that.

I fully agree with vanderbilt_grad. I just made up the name 6 corners because I think it's easily recognized that way. It's pretty difficult to know each tech the player played in 6 corners because it can have 1 of almost anything. I also think that it's beginning to be as staple as Luxchomp as a deck name no one has a problem of recognizing the deck from the "six corners" - name. Six is a part of the name, not necessarily the number of different Pokémon in the deck.
I think that the name Musketeer Dragon variants sounds just too complicated and weird since the deck already has its own nickname that's people are familiar with. The name this thread has for it makes things just more complicated and difficult for players who are used to call it 6 corners. And I'm also pretty sure that if someone is going to write an article about the deck on the Pokegym, it will be called as Six Corners in - just like in my blog.

Top 4 of Masters. Pram ran Eel/Zone, and Sami was in top 4 with Kyurum/Cobalion/Trode. No Thomoas Arena, I don't know of any Thomas Arena in the event?
