Ok everyone here is the info about the 3rd Bi-weekly. We have space for around 8-10 setups, last time we had 7 running. Just like last time we will be running Brawl, Melee, and N64, if there is time and interest we may run crews. Super Special Awesome Billcake was amazing/incredible/sh**y(lol at BEHR) (we had 25 or so people, which was less then Bill Justice unfortunately) lets make this one even better. We can house people if anyone needs it. Post below please if you plan to bring a setup.
One more thing: Melee doubles will start at 1:00 if you are late then you don't get to enter, sorry. Both times the tournament has run later than we planned and I won't let it run too much later this time because some of the entrants have other places to be/parents who want them back. Brawl doubles (the actual tournament, not just registration) are planned to start at 3:00 at the earliest. Registration will open at 12:00 with Melee. There is a chance, depending on the number of entrants that Brawl will start later than 3:00 but if we start at 3:00 as planned and your not there you will not be allowed to enter so it's best not to risk it. The one possible exception is if you call me. If you are running late and you call me I may be able to hold the tournament for a little bit or at least hold your matches. My number is (980) 254-6422.

Pictochat
Hanenbow is legal as counter pick for teams
Custom levels: We're considering making some custom levels and allowing them as counterpick levels in the tournament. None of them would be very crazy. They would be like the current neutrals, but varying in size or platform placement. I have an SD card so if anyone counterpicked the level you could download it or play on a wii that has it downloaded. If anyone has any ideas, comments, please post them here, as this is a new idea and we might be missing something that makes it dumb. If you have idea ideas for levels make them and bring them on an SD card and we will consider them.
The Dedede Rule: If either player plays as Dedede during any match any stage with constant walk-offs or walls (ex. Distant Planet) the stage will be banned automatically for that match and does not need to be chosen as the banned stage. If one of the walled/walk off stages is selected as a counterpick, and the other player switches to Dedede, the counterpicker has the opportunity to repick a new level. If the level is repicked, the other player has a chance to repick a character.
We know some of these rules are strange but we have some ideas we want to try so post and let us know what you think. If someone points out something we may have missed that would make any of proposed new rules dumb we will revise the rules.
N64: Standard Rule set (let me know if you are unfamiliar with it)
Neutral:
All stages
Ness rule: If either player plays as Ness during any match Saffron City will be banned automatically for that match and does not need to be chosen as the banned stage.
Price
