Dguy and Islander Cards and Comics presents : ICCT1

Greetings Florida. Gigabits is Central Florida's main tourney avenue. They are always successful and everyone always has a great time. However, some people need/want more Smash than once a month. Hiroshi's Inet Gamerz Tourney was incredibly successful, unfortunately it is not possible for him to have that every single month. I have spoken with the owner of a local comic shop and he is willing to let me run tourneys on a regular basis every month. This would allow everyone to have two central Florida tourneys a month minimum, with the possibility of three when including Inet.


Where:


Islander Cards & Comics
2096 North Courtenay Parkway
Merritt Island, FL 32953

The building is in a small shopping plaza near a local church. The building itself is a bit smaller than the Gigabits building, but it is large enough for 20-30 people, so an average sized turnout is expected.

Refreshments are sold in store. There are plenty of places to eat in the area. Mcdonalds, Burger King, Checkers, Wendys, Pizza Hut, ect...

When:


Saturday, June 9th, 2007
Registration starts at 10AM. Doubles will begin at 11AM. Singles will start one hour after doubles finishes.

Prices:


The owner only wants to take out 15% of the pot. I figured that we could do 1st place 60%, 2nd place 30%, and 3rd place 10% of the remaining pot. If enough people want it a different way, we could do that. It doesn't matter to me.

2v2 $20 per team
1v1 $15 per person


Rules:


standard mlg ruleset...same ruleset as gigabits...BYOC (Bring Your Own Controller)!

-4 stock, 8 mins matches
-2/3 sets; 3/5 for winners, losers, and grand finals
-items off
-team attack on
-life stealing allowed
-Dave's stupid rule: a stage can't be played more than once in a match, either by random select or by picking
-stage banning: Each person/team knocks out one stage for entire set. This stage must be selected at the beginning of the match, after initial characters have been chosen.
-mutual banning: If all players agree to ban a counterpick level, they may ban said level from their set while retaining their original individual bans.
-mutual allowing: If all players agree to play on a certain stage as a random or counterpick, they may play on that stage even though it is otherwise banned.
-advanced slob picks: Losing player(s) choose(s) the next stage or random, winning player(s) choose(s) character(s), then losing player(s) choose(s) character(s).
-double blind pick may be called at the beginning of each set.

neutral stages:
Final destination, Pokemon Stadium, Kirby's dreamland, Yoshi's story, Fountain of dreams, Battlefield

counter pick stages:
Any stage that isn't banned and any of the neutrals

Banned stages: you know what stages are banned

You can reach the comic shop at 321-452-4225. The owner's name is Wilson Little.

Questions, comments, and recommendations are very welcome. This will be the first tournament that I am running and I definitely want it to be a hit. It would be really awesome if CFL could have this many tourneys happening on a regular basis as this way, if someone can't make a Gigabits, they don't have to wait a whole month to play some Smash. I am counting on you guys to help make this a success.

Hmmm, i guess i'll never know, lol... Anyways, its cool that you are also helping out the CFL scene but it's too bad i can't attend it since I will be in New York. Good Luck to you though...peace

Alright, cool. This tourney will be really awesome if we can get decent attendance. Everyone, be sure to mention if you are bringing a cube and or a tv or not. Even if you don't bring a tv, you can still bring a cube.

Melbourne will be there, already asked off for this. I expect people from O-town to make it to this! :)

Oh yeah, melbourne has a total of 3 cubes, and a wii; although only one of the cubes are mine. I'll talk to the other guys about bringing theirs

Merritt Island is farther than I expected . . . Since Hiroshi won't be here June 9th we will have to talk to Zoro about driving but I don't think he would want to drive an hour out there :( but we will have to see.


If by some chance we are able to go I would need a teammate since Brian is leaving for NY :)


EDIT!!!:: Just realized you guys are right above cocoa beach. . .how far are you guys from the Ron Jon surf shop out there if you know where it's at, or how far are you from cocoa beach????

I agree it's nothing but his parents are real strict with him using the car to travel too far, but anyway my chances of going are 95% now :) Since you guys are so close to the surf shop I told my girlfriend and she agreed she would drive out there with me and her friend and then they will head for the beach. This means unless danny has no work I'll be the only WATO guy there and I will also have no teammate. . .anyone willing to team with me :)
Maybe OTRU if you got no partner ???????? :)


EDIT- As for the prize payout, take out the 15% first then distribute the money 60/30/10. That way he will have his percentage and the pot can split more fair between top 3. Also since you said the shop will not be that big will there be a cutoff to how many people can come?? Hopefully not because all those locals might not attend they are maybes. And for time what time does the shop open/close so we can know the approximate amount of hours we have.

Your idea for placing sounds excellent. There will be no cutoff for people attending. We will find a way to make everyone fit. If everyone can't fit for some reason, they can chill outside until it is their turn ;)

The shop opens at 11AM and closes at 8PM, however the tourney times are not final. I still have to talk to the owner and see if he is willing to bend his regular hours for the tourney.

If I make any money at Seibrik's tournament, I'll go to this. If I go, I'll bring a Wii and possibly a television.

Nice to see that you may be coming Ted. This tourney may end up having a good amount of locals, perhaps more locals than us. Hype ++

Yeah, I'm definitely coming to this with my brother, and probably the other members of my crew. SWORD MANS WILL TAKE TEAMS (unless space animals eat us along the way, it always happens) :(

our attendance isnt lookin good, we dont have a ride :s

Hopefully you can bring in a lot of locals to get them more into the game and have a bigger attendance. Here in Kissimmee we found 4 smashers that got really good after playing their 1st tourney, now they come with us all the time :)

I'm thinking about coming to this, but I'm already attending the next gigabits and Pound 2 in June, so I don't know if my crew will be up for coming as well. I'll talk to them about, though.

The more people, the better. I want this tourney to be as awesome as possible. I know a decent number of the locals and some of them are not too shabby.
