I've registered on their site and contacted RAIN. I know DEHF has done the same. He really wants people to come.

What everybody should be doing is finding a way to get a lot of people here for cheap. That would really help the community.
melee isnt even confirmed yet... slow down there strawhats...
i know its not ...but this tourney is not thiss yr. Therefore, Im going under the grand assumption (that there will be melee interest) yes i know what happens to those who assume (they make an *** of themselves) however i trust melee imterest will be strong at this.

Me and M2K are pretty much confirmed, we got our BPs and all, unless something unfortunate happens later. Team North America will win.

A nice legit reason to go out there.
Tip: Everyone who is going or who is planning on going, it would be best to start saving your money. The sooner the better. Plane tickets to Japan are never cheap so expect putting your wallet through a little bit of pain. Also bring more money than you expect to bring since there is a chance that you will be site seeing and you are going to want to buy a lot of stuff for you to take home.
I know a bit of traveling myself. Don't forget to pack things! EX: deodarant. Those don't come cheap in Japan/Korea. Asian people don't sweat over there, so it'll be difficult for you to find the things you'll need (like underwear in case you somehow forgot to pack it. It happens to people all the time) A very, very, very small stick of deodarant like Old Spice will cost you about 7 dollars or so.
This is for people who are new to traveling over seas.
Good luck! And hopefully I'll see you guys in April!

I'm just say that the ticket out there isn't a problem for me. Just as long as their are open spots on that flight for me to get on.

I'll be there to help out any players coming who need help with translation.
I don't live anywhere near the venue so I can't have people crashing (about 3 hours away by bullet train...) but I'd be willing to help!
BTW, KFC is super expensive and sucks here lul.
ALSO, the yen is super expensive right now so you'll need a lot of money in general for FOOD and TRAINS and stuff. Think that for every US dollar you have, you only have 85 yen. That MATTERS when you're talking about the money needed for a tournament.
If any more important updates some please let me know asap! (specifically sign ups...).

google says 100 bucks is 8430 yen. how far does 8430 yen get you?
Vayseth
Smash Master
Depends, haha. Blurays cost about that here new (for some of them) but their games, CDs, DVDs, etc are SUPER inflated (3,000 yen for a new album? WTF?)
Let's assume a decent meal out somewhere costs between 800 and 1600 yen. Does that help?

Tentative Rule Set
http://smacom2.mysns.tv/?m=pc&a=page_c_topic_detail&target_c_commu_topic_id=5033
1. 3 stocks
2. 10-minute timer (Pools matches may run on an 8-minute timer)
3. Best-of-3 sets (WF, LF, and GF will be best-of-5)
4. Double elimination
5. All items off
6. Team attack on (it has yet to be determined if doubles will happen at this tournament)
7. Changing controls allowed
8. Pause is turned off
-----------Limiting Rules/Bans-----------
1. No modified controllers
2. No using infinites for stalling purposes
3. No bugs of any kind
4. No Infinite Dimensional Cape (incidental use of IDC is tolerable)
5. Ledge grab limit of 50
6. No scrooging (player may travel under the stage only once from the ledge)
* "Traveling under the stage once from the ledge" is defined as dropping off the ledge on one side of the stage and reaching the height of the original ledge on the other side of the stage.
Corollaries to Rule 6:
* When one of the players is attacked by the other and takes damage, Rule 6 does not apply.
* The moving platform on Smashville is considered to be equivalent to a ledge, i.e. if a player starts from the moving platform on one side of the stage and travels beneath the stage to the ledge/platform on the opposite side of the stage, the player may not travel beneath the stage back to the ledge/moving platform on the opposite side before until he lands back on the platform.
-----------Set Format-----------
Game 1:
1. Stage-striking order and controller ports are determined by Rock-Paper-Scissors
2. Rock-Paper-Scissors loser strikes one of the three Starter stages
3. Rock-Paper-Scissors winner strikes one of the remaining two Starter stages
4. Players select their characters (players may elect to have a double-blind character selection)
Game 2 (and so on):
1. Loser may select controller port
2. Winner may ban a stage from the Counterpick list
3. Loser selects one of the remaining stages
4. Winner chooses character
5. Loser chooses character
6. Repeat steps 1-5 until the set is decided
-----------Stages-----------
Starter:
Final Destination
Battlefield
Smashville
Counterpick:
Yoshi's Island (Brawl)
Lylat Cruise
Pokemon Stadium 1
-----------Timeouts-----------
In the event that a match goes to time, the victor will be decided by the following steps, in order:
1. Number of ledgegrabs (if one player exceeds 50 ledgegrabs, that player will be declared the loser)
2. Number of remaining stocks
3. Amount of damage percent
4. If stocks and damage percent are identical, the match will be replayed on the same stage, with each player at one stock.
* I especially welcome comments related to any problems with the ruleset.

I'm interested in Rain's suggested Melee rule set (if there is Melee).

... Yoshi's Island as a counterpick, eh?
Now I need to go to this even more.

Translation notes:
For the 8-minute timer in pools it says it MIGHT be made to 8 minutes only in pools. Not that it will be 8 minutes.

KFC's in Asia does suck, if you want Western Food def get McD and only get beef foods.
And its much cheaper to get asian foods anyways.

ramen in japan da bess. never eat it outside of asia though. if you're eating western food in japan, you're doing it wrong.
i talked to m2k today, and apparently he, ally, dehf and nick riddle are all confirmed for this. this is gonna be one amazing tourney.

False. McDs here is SOOOOOOOOO much better (than the US, at least).
In general, all food here is awesome.
at this point, no. the venue apparently is unable to support a livestream.

Ok, so I wake up this morning and there's a lot of talk on Smacom about there most likely being a Melee tourney as well. Captain Jack made a post about the tournament and said "Since it seems like there's gonna be Melee, I'll probably be there," and Koto(Thunders) sent me a message asking me what kind of ruleset would be best.
I'm about to respond to him with: "M2K is going to be there, so I REALLY don't think we should do FD-only."
Because **** you M2K LOL

Mmm but M2K doesn't chaingrab in Sheik dittos, and CJ is a cool enough guy that he probably wouldn't either. Which means we could have Two Sheiks, One Cup all over again! :D

There is a very outside chance of me making this trip. I'll get to chill with Earth, Sweet Pea, Suinoko, Rain, Brood, and Fujita again!!

Yeah, RAIN is planning a 64-player Melee singles side tourney.

There is now an official tournament home page, though it is in Japanese: http://srt.ninja-x.jp/

In addition to M2K, Ally, DEHF, Nick Riddle, and Seibrik, is there anyone else who's actually very likely to go to this? I understand that since this is 6 months away, it's hard to be definitely sure you can make it to this, but RAIN asked me to compile a list of likely attendees just so he could get an idea of the extent of international interest.
