------------------------------
There are Multiple Different Package Deals for Getting into the Comic-Con, Check them out here:
http://www.wizarduniverse.com/wizworchic20.html
The Cost for Each Event(Which is Separate from the Cost of Getting into the Comic-Con) can be Found Above in the Games/Events Section.
Because of the Cost of Renting Multiple Booths at the Event The Tourney Organizers will be Taking 50% of the Pot. This is why the Entry Fee is Twice as Much as it Would Normally be. Unless you're Going to the Comic-Con Already, or you're a Pro at any of these games, I suggest that you don't Come to the Comic-Con JUST to enter one of these Tourneys.
Of the Remaining Pot the Winners will get the following amount:
1st - 60%
2nd -30%
3rd - 10%

Rules
Super Smash Brothers Brawl Singles
-Please arrive on time. If you are late, I can not guarantee you a spot in whatever tourney you are late for.
-There are no refunds.
- Whether you are in a tourney or not, if you are in the venue you must pay the venue fee.
- DO NOT LOAD YOUR GAME THROUGH THE HOMEBREW CHANNEL!!! . If you would like unlimited length replays enabled, I will use my own personal sd card to load the game (sorry I can't trust anyone without knowledge of what codes they have on).
-Trash talking is allowed, and is encouraged! We love the hype! However, please do not distract the players too much at their discretion. Respect their right to focus on a match.
* Any destruction of anyone's property at the venue will not be tolerated, and in the case of such an event, you will be asked to leave.
- No drugs, alcohol, or any crap like that in there. If you have any, you will be kicked out.
-You may not be a commentator on the live stream without first having consent by myself, or any other approved tourney helper there. If you are commentating on the live stream, please act professional. Focus more on the match at hand instead of giving people tons of shutouts in the chat. No cursing at all. By all means keep it lively and fun though. all have an awesome time!
Singles:
3 Stock
8 Minute Time Limit
No Items
If you need to add your name to change your controls, please remember to do so, and do it quickly. You should not quit in the middle of a match if you realize your controls are wrong.
First round consists of all characters being chosen by a blind pick. The first stage will then be determined by a stage strike method. Players take turn striking out neutral stages until only one stage remains, which is the stage that is played. After the first match is over, each player bans one stage that can not be used in counterpicks.
Match two/three will first consist of the previous loser picking a stage, then the previous winner picking their character, and finally the previous loser picking their character.
You may not counterpick a stage you have already won on earlier that set.
Neutral Stages:
o Battlefield
o Final Destination
o Smashville
o Yoshi's Island (Brawl)
o Lylat Cruise
* Counterpick Stages:
o Delfino Plaza
o Castle Siege
o Frigate Orpheon
o Battleship Halberd
o Rainbow Cruise
o Brinstar
o Pokemon Stadium
-The 50 Ledge Grab Rule will be in effect, until the community as a whole comes up with a set number, we will make the limit 50 grabs. If the game ends with the time running out and your stats show that you went over 50 ledge grabs, you will automatically lose that round. If both people go over 50, then participating players Who ever has the highest stock and or lowest percentage on that stock will win. If both player have the same stock and percentage when the timer runs out, then a 1 stock rematch will occur.
-Standing Infinites are BANNED which include (but not limited to) Dedede's small-step chain grab.
-Ice Climber things are legal, as long as they aren't used for stalling.
-If there is a dispute over controller ports, play Rock Paper Scissors for it (best 2 out of 3, no items, FD only).
- Suicide Move Rules: (all situations are when both players are at 1 stock)
o If a player successfully ends the match with either Bowser or Ganondorf's over B attack by suicide, then the player who initiated the move wins.
o If a player ends the match by swallowing with Kirby or DDD and falling off the stage and the game counts it as a tie the one who initiated the move will win the round
If you would Like the Rules and schedules to any of the other games please say so and I'll be sure to let you know
EDIT:
Alright guys as of right now my brother and I are not gonna be there.
We kind of got screwed over by the people who hired us.
The tourney is probably gonna have weird rules now cause we aren't running it and it may even be single elimination.
I'm sorry, we did whatever we could in the last two days to get there and run it but it just didn't happen.
This was out of our control
are you going?
