There are several events going on here that are worth checking out! If you have friends that aren't just into smash, perhaps they'd be into some of the other games.
We had over 150 gamers attend at our last event, and we're expecting more this time around!
**NEW - Added a slot for Melee singles **

- Action shot -


Tournaments are as follows:

Madden 2k10
NBA 2K10

Smash Brawl (Singles and Teams)

Smash Melee (Singles definite, Teams pending)
Halo3 ODST (FFA and 2v2)
Fight Night Round 4
Modern Warfare 2 (FFA and 2v2)
Street Fighter
Tekken 6


Times:
Registration starts at 11am
Brawl Teams start @12noon-1pm
Brawl Singles start @3pm
Melee Singles start @5pm


Brawl Rules:
* 3 Stock
* 7 minute timer
* Items are set to "off" and "none"
* All sets with the possible exception of winner's finals, loser's finals, and the championship are best of 3 matches. Finals/championship 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.
* If the timer runs out, the victor is determined first by stock and then by percentage.
* Metaknight's Infinite Cape glitch is banned.
* If a game ends with Bowser doing his suicide klaw and it ends in sudden death, the sudden death will be ignored and that game will count as a win for Bowser.
* You are responsible for your own controller and name tag. 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.
* Any action that can prevent the game from continuing (i.e., freezing, disappearing characters, game reset, etc.) will result in a forfeit of that match for the player that initiated the action. You are responsible for knowing your own character, and must be wary about accidentally triggering one of these effects.
* Stalling is banned!
* Anything the TO deems unsportsman-like or Illegal will have you disqualified from the tournament!


Set format (In Order of Procedure):
1. Opponents choose their characters for the first match *
2. Each player may announce one stage to be banned for counterpicks of the set
3. The first game is played, using a random stage from the starter set
4. The loser of the previous match announces the next match's stage from either the Starter Stage List or the Counter Stage List
5. The winner of the previous match chooses their character
6. The loser of the previous match chooses their character
7. Repeat steps 4-6 for all proceeding matches
*Double blind character selection may be called for the first match

Be there losers, I wanna take you to pirate ship and japes for massive lawls
Grape: So, where do you wanna cp?
Me: Doesn't matter. Anywhere with platforms.
Grape: Uhh... we're going to Pirate Ship!
Other team: Aww ****

Cannonball shield break combo.

But, seriously, ban more stages. We won't get good turn-outs much longer if Grape keeps playing gay aqua ape on Japes.

Oi. Stage bans, I do understand. We'll see. I might add or remove a few by the end of the week. I'll ask a few other TOs about how they run it. You're always welcome to strike Japes or Pirate Ship for now :).

Yay!!! Finally!! I missed the last tournament because I spent the night over my friend's house and had no idea that there was one... I came home the same day and my sister was all in my face yelling, "Where were you!? Why didn't you pick up your phone! There was a Brawl tournament today at the mall!!" I was like, "ZOMG! NO WAYY!!"

But yeah, I was so mad... But nowz, I can enter it! YAYAY! I'm so excited... *starts counting days* xD!!

I'm just pondering if I should use Marth, Ike, or Zelda... *tears up* I've been so bad lately!

My schedule is pretty weird. I have people over to play thursday mornings like 9am-noon, and Saturdays 1pm-5pm. If you're comin Elkomo, I'll buff up my link a bit. (he's been going soft lately).

You'll do fine IkeFiend. If anything your game will improve greatly. Mine always does :).

I think your 16 stocking days are over son. You've joined the ranks of the working class! Haha

Anyone is welcome to head over to my place for some practice then, just PM me. I have 2 setups, one for melee and brawl. Melee prefered.

Sup travis you never play sf4. Hop on that!!!
I don't have it on 360 though, just PS3. I did just recently get a stick for 360 though, so I'll play you in the tournament. If Tim comes to my house the night before like usual, you should come with him and we can play/practice it (and smash) then.

Hate to bust your bubble, but you're going to lose Brawl. Not even to the people who win brawl either. You're going to lose it to me. I don't even like the game. I'm probably twice your age. Get *****.

And you'll lose in front of your little girlfriend. Ouch, life must be rough for kinds now-a-days. :laugh:

You can pre-register on their website (except melee), or you can register when you get there during the registration times posted on the first page. ID would be helpful if you do pre-reg.

Registration does go on throughout the day for events that start past 1pm.

**** right she's not your GF, she's mine. Bring your skills onto the melee table, hopefully they aren't accurately represented by your grammar. ;)

Flaming isn't just a simple statement, it's an art form. I'm not arrogant... I'm very well known.

"The downside to being better than everyone else, is people tend to assume you're pretentious".

Don't melee "maybe". Man up please. I'm entering both so you'd better too. If you're truly skilled you'll strut it in both games. The concept behind them is the same.

Nothing about the way I talk is "big head *** hole". I've demonstrated my talent in many-a-tournament. Show yours then bear your right to talk.

:p
