Venue Fee - There will be a venue fee of $5 charged to anyone who wishes to use the TV's. This means both friendlies and tournament attendees. Increase in venue will cover the extra cost to run the tournaments involved with coming in from the bay area.

Receive a $1 discount by bringing any of the following items for up to $3 off the venue fee (we must use the items):
1. Wii/Gamecube with Brawl/Melee
2. Playstation with SSFIV:AE/UMvC3
3. Xbox with SSFIV:AE/UMvC3
4. PS3 or Xbox360 Fight Stick (must allow others to use as needed)
5. If you bring an additional copy of SSFIV:AE or UMvC3

Cussing will result in you being expelled from the venue and disqualified from any tournament you are participating in with no refund. This is a serious issue - we almost lost the venue due to this. So please keep cussing to a minimum and/or at a low volume.

If you are 5 min late for reporting to a match, you will be given a 5 min warning. If you are 10min late after being called to report to a match, you will be given a loss for that entire round. Seris will be tracking people down as always, but please try to pay attention.

If you want to use a wii remote control of any kind, please bring your own as they will not be provided for you. However, we do have loner GC controllers but i highly suggest you bring your own. We do not have any PS3/Xbox 360 loner controllers.

If you are interested in playing Brawl+/Brawl- at home, bring a blank SD (at least 1 GB) card to the tournament and TAG will install it to your card.

Instructions for use:

1. There can be no custom stages on your wii or SD card. Delete them first.
2. Insert the SD card into your wii.
3. Go to the custom stages. Wait for the Gecko screen to load.
4. Select "Launch Game"

Things you need to know:

1. If you play regular brawl, DO NOT have the SD card in the wii while you play. Your game will freeze .

2. If you go to the custom stages to load B+/B- and it looks like its loading stages for longer than 2-3 seconds, turn you wii off because the game will not load. You may have to remove the power cord.

3. Dont hold any buttons down while the game is switching to the victory screen as this may also freeze the game.

4. There is a possibility that it may not work if you already have your wii hacked with the Homebrew channel on it.

Any tactic that prevents the game from progressing is considered stalling. For example, stalling with homing attack at the bottom of FD is stalling, Peach's wall bomber stall, and ic's freeze glitch. Running away to get a better position is not stalling.

ya but usually about 30 people show up. Seris has on multiple times given money from out of his pocket for these tournaments.

Getting involved with someone's business and trolling with derogatory comments. If you are in lets say, a San Diego thread, and I've never seen you go to SD, you have no interest in going to the tournament, and you throw a post in there trolling a member, this is considered both trolling and spam. Do not do it.

Usually if a lot of people show up for one tourney, I raise the guaranteed prize for the next one and all the ones following it. I have only made a profit 3 times, and have raised the prize 6 times. Its not always first place i give the raise to. Ive lost HUNDREDS of dollars out of MY pocket running these since the melee days so i dont feel too bad when i make a couple bucks. Yes we do have multiple judges that you can call over, but it has never really been an issue because the matchups happen so rarely. Its easier to regulate than stalling since it can only happen in certain matchups. Anyway, the date has been updated. I forgot because i copy pasted from AIB. There should also be a free side event as well. Looks like it is going to be Mid-low tier tourney based on my TAG tier list.

Wall infinites are fine. However, all stages with static walls are banned.
