I've contacted the head honcho of NetBattle, TVsIan (by e-mail, but he has an AIM handle of his name too) about a test server for PT, a PT netbattle. If we get a positive response, I'll move this to announcements and post on the site, or the trash forum otherwise.
This will allow us to test out all sorts of stats goodies. The only thing that will not work right away is hidden power. We need to bring an expert in to help with working that out.

Yes, we will have to work out compatabilities first.

I've got Virtual PC now, unfortunately it needs an OS. I'm borrowing a friend's XP disks. Evil is on my computer! EVIL!!
Well, anyway, I'll be able to netbattle soon. Probably.

What does a Virtual PC have to do with Netbattle? Ah, I think I know. It's only compatible with Windows and you're on Mac OS, Linux or BSD. Right?

I still haven't gotten in contact. Who leaves their AIM on for two days and is never there?

I'm on a Mac. How could you not guess?

Well, I thought you were no mac, but I wasn't certain. I'm often on linux myself, so why wouldn't that be possible?

Will this be to test new Pokémon, new moves, a new stats system, or what? I don't quite understand... seeing as any of those would require altering the NetBattle program itself, would they not?
Also, with 887503681 possible EV combinations, I'm sure there must be a mathematical system to caltulating HP rather than just a list of matching each one up... and that system must be explained somewhere, rather than having to find an expert who is willing to help.
If you do get a response from TVsIan, I'm sure he must know someone who knows something about HP, seeing as that's coded into NB.

Yes, it's to test all of the new parts of the system. We just need to finalised stats, compatability and how Hidden Power will work with three new types.

...how Hidden Power will work with three new types. Haven't we decided that already?

Did we? I mean how to work the formula not only for Netbattle, but also random in-game we need to work as well. The formula used covers every IV combination, and results in every current type other than Normal and a bunch of power bases.

I know, but you started a topic on this a while ago and there, I changed he formula a little, which should make it work.

Hopefully I'll be able to get Virtual PC with my Apple Store employee discount if I get the job and be able to play netbattle and the full version of the game

Though it seems to be rejecting connections alot, I made a Netbattle server for us at the "Ptreasures Server" me currently as head admin. We'll fix it up a bit later on, and perhaps get PT added.
Description- Official server or Poikemon Treasures, fighting to get TVsIan to respond to me on AIM!

Assuming I am using NetBattle right... by which I mean I am clicking 'Advanced...', typing 'Ptreasures Server' in the box and clicking okay... then I am not getting in. I just get a "You have been disconnected from this server." message. In scary red text.
