APEX 2010 - Event Done | Partial Results up Side events will be posted ASAP

• Singles: $10
• Doubles: $10/person ($20/team)

• 4 stock
• 8 minutes
• Double Elimination
• Items set to "off" and "none"
• All sets are best of 3 (Winners Finals/Losers Finals/Grand Finals will be best of 5)
• In the event of a dispute, controller ports will be selected by Rock-Paper-Scissors
• No player may choose a stage they have already won on in that set unless agreed upon by both players.
• In team matches, the ports will be determined in a 1221 fashion; whoever wins the RPS will choose first, then the opposing team will get their ports, and then the teammate of the RPS winner will get the last port or to save on time you could just agree to something on your own. If there is a conflict in singles, RPS will come into effect as well.
• If the timer runs out, the victor is determined by stock then percentage. If percentage is the same then a 1 stock tie breaker match will be played using the same characters and same stage.
• You are responsible for your own controller. Any malfunctions or errors that occur are your responsibility, so bring an extra controller if possible and always check to make sure you're using the correct settings BEFORE a match is played. If a match is to be restarted due to controller functions, it must be agreed upon by both parties.
• Whoever initiated a Bowsercide, Ganoncide, Kirbycide or Wariocide on the last stock to end the game is the winner of that match regardless of the result.
• Stalling, such as using Sonic's homing attack under a stage to stall indefinitely, is banned.
• The official team texture pack from the Brawl+ download and any custom music are allowed. Custom character textures, custom stage textures and custom sound effects are not allowed.

1. Opponents choose their characters for the first match*
2. Opponents start the stage striking procedure
3. Each player may announce one stage to be banned for counterpicks of the set
4. The first game is played, using the stage chosen during step 2
5. The loser of the previous match announces the next match's stage from either the Starter Stage List or the Counter Stage List
6. The winner of the previous match chooses their character
7. The loser of the previous match chooses their character
8. Repeat steps 5-7 for all proceeding matches

• Life Stealing is allowed
• Set team attack to ON

• Port slob picks: On a player's counterpick, that player may opt to redo the port selection process with that player or team picking their port first.
• Resolving Ties: Any games ending in time running out should always be decided by stock then percentages. If the percentages are the same then a 1 stock tie breaker match will be played with same characters and same stage. At no time will sudden death be played.
• Wiimotes and classic controllers are allowed but we would prefer if you used a GameCube controller. You are responsible for your controller. Take any necessary actions to prevent interference such as removing batteries.
• During the tournament, unless it is Winners Finals, Losers Finals or Grand Finals, friendlies and MM's are not to be played. There will be plenty of time before the actual tournament to do that.
• Important one: If you are 10 minutes late to a match you are DQ'd from winners and losers bracket. DON'T BE LATE.

Bio you should get this ruleset on the first page so it doesn't get buried. Also... I'd like to do commentary for B+ if possible, at least for a few matches. Got that voice that brings out all the repressed homosexual tendencies in this community ;p and an encyclopedic knowledge of B+ (and vBrawl to a lesser extent but f*** that noise).

That stage list is completely fail. Utter fail.

It would be endorsed by both of you.

Delfino not a 1v1? No reason for that (and no, Halberd is not essentially a clone).
PictoPlus a viable tourney stage? Not at all with the wind on it.
Rainbow Cruise a team stage? Uhh... probably one of the only stages I can safely say is 1v1 only if that.
Luigi's Mansion not a 1v1? Really stupid since this stage works so well in singles with the fixes.

There's no real logic for why you guys chose to go the way you did with stages. None. I don't care if you have a 3 page long essay you want to write in response to me that will probably end with "get owned Bandit" or some cheesy thing like that because I won't read it. It's nothing more than gibberish.

Choosing 10 stages out of a hat for use in singles and doubles would be a better way to choose stages.

Your counterpick stages are Rumble Falls (just a large starter), Castle Siege (small starter), Yoshi's (former starter)... the only stages with any real counterpicking qualities is Brinstar and Halberd.

Why is Lylat not a part of this list??

Why are the singles and doubles stage lists so different? It's the same game.

@Bandit - Someone suggested that Halberd and Defino are clones in discussing them? LOL

The stage list is better than I thought it would potentially be, but some of it doesn't make sense
