ITT Presents: Finals are over! Ohio Tournament 11/12

Finals are over!

I decided to do a last minute tournament after finals week. I noticed no one was really hosting anything this weekend and with finals out of the way I figure, why not?


All I ask is that you don't go upstairs. (That's mine and my brother's rooms) And please respect my house (Don't break anything) If you do break something and it was an accident, I'll either take the cost out of the venue fee or have you pay for it. (This REALLY shouldn't even be an issue, the only things that you could break would be this giant glass cabinet, just avoid it)

If anyone wants to come over the night before for housing or needs housing after the tournament you are free to stay. I have a large couch and a small couch and tons of floor space.

I *might* be able to give people nearby a ride if they absolutely have no other way, but please try to find a ride, I really don't want to be driving people around everywhere.

Brawl Rules and Format:

* 3 Stock Double Elimination

* 8 minute timer

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

* Bring your own controller

* All matches prior to Winners' and Losers' Finals are best of 3. Winners', Losers', and Grand Finals are best of 5

* The Stage Strike system will be used and explained for the first match of all sets, then after procedure is loser stage pick, winner character choice, loser character choice.

* In the event of a dispute, controller ports will be selected by Rock-Paper-Scissors

* Dave's Stupid Rule: 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.

* Port slob picks: On a player's counterpick, that player may opt to redo the port selection process with that player or team picking their port first.

* Wiimotes and Classic Controller users should know to take the batteries out of their controllers after finishing a set; not only will this save battery life, but it prevents accidental intereference and delay for tournament matches.

* The Mages DQ rule: After a match has been called, if a player is two minutes late he will receive a warning. At 4 minutes late, he will be given a loss for the first game of the set. After six minutes, he will be given a loss of the entire set.

* 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.

*Standing Infinites are BANNED which include (but not limited to) Dedede's small-step chain grab. Dedede standard chain grab is fine.

* 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.

* Stalling is banned. Any legal infinite chain grabs most end quickly after 300% has been reached so as to prevent excessive stalling.

* I am NOT to be held liable for your horsing around, if someone is injured or there is some form of altercation I am not responsible for either party.

Additional Rules for Double's

* Life Stealing is allowed

* Set team attack to ON

Isn't Wings and Brew on the same day?

Edit: Yeah it is, but I'd still come to this since it's closer. Want to team if Beegs isn't able to make it?

I dunno if I have the money (and if I do, it's the last of my tournament money), I also need to see if SFG is available to go this weekend. Other than that, I can't promise much.

my finals are the week after this >:L. WHEN ARE YOU HOSTING ANOTHER TYM ;_;

Depends on if I have money for this or not.

Also, ITT, is there a bus that runs near your house?

This isn't at the gamehouse, right?

I would like to go if someone doesn't give me a ride to Wings and Brew, but I have a feeling you are going to change the date now.

If you do decide to switch the date, please make it for the middle of December...plox.

I think the spots for WaB are filling up... I'm also going to my grandparent's on the 19th and lolis is on the 19th as well...

Day after christmas? Some random weekday? Same day? I'unno. I gotta focus on finals right now.

If its after the weekend of the 19th, I'll try my hardest to be there.

If you change the date, then I definitely can't make it... pretty much no matter what you change it to.

If you change it for after the 19th, I'll bring a set up and most of West Salem.

hello this is ken from big ms account. im coming to this

Doesn't seem like many are going to show up for this since WaB is on the same day. BUT, this topic needs to AT LEAST get some attendance.

Turnout depends on if I go basically. So this is essentially a bump post.

I got a few people from AiB interested, I'm hoping for around 16

Well, I can't go.

You talked about changing the date, so I didn't request the day off from work, and now I'm scheduled that day.

I would go, but I'm not allow to go into to other people houses. Sorry man

Since attendance seems really low it may just be a free tourney unless everyone wants to actually pay. Bring some money for pizza still though.

I'll play tons of friendlies with anyone.

I'll probably also have call of duty modern warfare 2 setups and league of legends if anyone wants to play those. Maybe some Age of Empires 2. I'unno. This is turning into more of a LAN party than smash tournament. It depends on people's interests. If people wanna just play smash all night, that's fine with me we can all do that. If people want to play other games that's cool too.

Since you mention LoL... I can't get it to work for some reason. Doesn't seem to detect the internet (I opened my ports, checked the firewall, etc.)
