Vids from the first tournament: www.youtube.com/user/pewpewpit

Due to massive amounts of lesser space and school johns, Aura is gonna be handling the tournaments. Link here: http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=285340

Cost is $5 for singles and $10 for teams. I'm taking 5% of cost for hosting and then the rest will be split 60/30/10. Rules are standard Brawl rules:

* 3 Stock

* 8 minute timer

* Items are set to "off" and "none"

* All sets with are best of 3, with the exception of winner's finals, loser's finals, and the championship which are best of 5

* 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.

* You can rock-paper-scissor to determine controller port for the first match. If you lose your opponent was a lower port than you you can demand a switch.

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.

Additional rule for doubles: Team attack and life stealing are set to on. You can choose to rock paper scissor for first controller port selection, with one team having 1 and 4 and another having 2 and 3.

Set format (In Order of Procedure):
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

If you want to have Balanced Brawl, go ahead. But I'm against replacing NORMAL Brawl with it.

We shouldn't have any problems making this (whoever all is coming from Iowa anyway).
Don't replace regular Brawl with BBrawl. That would be awful.
Just leave it as a side event if anyone actually cares about it.

I believe Afrayail and Ptato are going as well.
Yeah I assume so.
We'll probably know who all is going by next weekend when we get together

Anyone gonna need a place to stay?

I need to put more custom songs on Smash. Give me ideas >.<
I don't know if housing is necessary yet.
As for music just make sure it's not really loud or distracting.
Or replace every song with Okkusenman and Sailor Moon.

I hope we're going! I wanna donate money to Joker. I'm either coming with Chris or Rebecca.
We're going to be going one way or another.
Also that money will be donate to me because I'm going to beat Joker
with the power of chloroform and a handkerchief.
I have a FB event I forgot to make:

http://www.facebook.com/event.php?invites&eid=206911111416

Seriously though most people I know who play aren't on here, so I've just been doing it word of mouth.
How many people from around the area are you expecting?
Also is it still going to be $10 entry or $5? I would assume the latter would get more of the hesitant people to enter (if there are any).

That aren't on the boards? Around 6 or so.

Honestly I'm not sure of price yet. I was gonna ask everyone when we get there and figure out what we want to do, although we can figure it out here/now if you want.

I think that at Sherman's, assuming we have a fair amount of people let's say 14+, we should have a $1 entry Double-Blind Melee Tournament. If you dont know what it is, here's the rules and Ill link a video of it also:

- All of the basic Melee rules.
- It's kind of like teams because 1 person plays and 1 person coaches. You dont switch roles.
- The person playing has to look away from the screen, preferably facing completely opposite the TV, while the coach tells him/her what to do the entire time.
- Hype is encouraged.

Seriously, this should be mad fun and it requires absolutely no skill. I prefer doing this with Melee since it's a lot better than Brawl especially for this kind of match.

Here's an example of it and what it will look like (probably worse actually):

Tyser are you going to enter the tournament? Or come if Iowa doesn't show? You haven't volunteered that information enough times yet.



Also. Double-Blind Melee sounds sick.

Why don't you just add Equity, Libra, and Abyss and just slap an "Overswarm approved" sticker on there?

(2) What's the expected turn-out?

We should just ban all levels except Delfino Plaza with Crash Man's theme.

Yes, I made an account just to post that, Dan.

if we bring a set up, will the entry fee be waived? sorry if you posted that inn the OP. im on my phone
Probably not. There is no venue fee and entry is only $5 lol. You guys should bring setups though. The more the merrier.

Remember, if there's 20 people, splits will be:
1st - $60
2nd - $30
3rd - $10

Get hyped ROFL!
