Nashua Smash - New Hampshire steps up on Nov. 28th

· 3 Stock
· 8 minute timer
· Items are set to "off" and "none"
· All sets with the exception of winner's finals, loser's finals, and the championship are best of 3 matches (best of 5 and above should be played out for any "finals" matches)
· 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.
· In team matches, the ports will be determined in a 1221 fashion; whoever wins the RPS will choose first, then the opposing team will get their ports, and then the teammate of the RPS winner will get the last port.
· 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.

Stalling: The act of deliberately avoiding any and all conflict so that one may make the game unplayable. Running away from an opponent to reach a better position is not stalling, while doing an infinite grab endlessly against a wall is. Any infinite chain grabs must end quickly after 300% has been reached so as to prevent excessive stalling.

For those who are new to the competitive Super Smash Bros. scene, this is how a set between two players should look like:

1. Opponents choose their characters for the first match*
2. Opponents start the stage striking procedure
3. Each player may announce one stage to be banned for counterpicks of the set
4. The first game is played, using the stage chosen during step 2
5. The loser of the previous match announces the next match's stage from either the Starter Stage List or the Counter Stage List
6. The winner of the previous match chooses their character
7. The loser of the previous match chooses their character
8. Repeat steps 5-7 for all proceeding matches

*Double blind character selection may be called for the first match​

· Same rules apply as Brawl Singles
· Additionally, Team Attack is set to ON
· Life Stealing is allowed
​

You must follow the stage striking system to determine the starter stage, but if both players agree to play on a starter stage they can skip this step. In this system, players take turns striking stages from the starter list until only one remains; these stages are not banned and can be counterpicked later in the set.

Starters:
Battlefield
Final Destination
Smashville
Yoshi's Island
Lylat Cruise
Halberd
Pokemon Stadium 1

Each player can ban a single stage from the Counterpick (or Starter if you choose) stage list. This banned stage cannot be played for the remainder of the set.

Counterpicks:
Castle Siege
Brinstar
Delfino
Frigate Orpheon
Jungle Japes
Pictochat
Norfair
Pokemon Stadium 2
Rainbow Cruise

All other stages are banned.​

2 Minutes Late – Warning
4 Minutes Late – Loss of first match of set
6 Minutes Late – Loss of set​
