Final Smash VII:




WHY YOU SHOULD COME TO THIS:


-A fresh new start. Gamelot has turned its back on Smash. Thankfully, I have formed new connections, and San Antonio Smash will live on.
-Amazing New Venue. 10,000 sq ft all dedicated to console gaming.
-Tons of games to pick from. Sure, you have Smash, but there will also be Street Fighter IV, Tekken 6, Marvel vs Capcom 2, Blazblue, and plenty of other awesome games.
-Sponsors. Gamestop, Monster Energy Drinks, and more will be there to provide you with a finer tournament experience.
-The best of the best will be there. Every Final Smash has drawn the best players the southwest has to offer. This will be no exception.

Schedule of Events:

Doors open at 10:00 am. Registration is open until an event has begun.

Smash:

Brawl Singles @ 2:30 pm
Brawl Teams @fter Singles is finished.

Melee Singles @ 4:00 pm

GAME ON magazine wants to cover my tournament! They'll be bring video cameras and a 5 speaker PA system to my tournament, and they'll be videotaping it and interviewing players. Get hyped!

Entry Fees:

Venue Fee: $12, to be paid at the door. We will furnish you with a wristband, which will let you come and go all day.

The venue fee is higher because it's a new venue that is much, much bigger than Gamelot, and it in turn costs more.It'll be worth it though, because there will be more room, vendors, setups provided by Gamestop, and lots of events.

Please bring consoles and TVs! The more equipment we have the faster and smoother we can run the tournament. And you'll have more time to play friendlies. Please support the scene!

* First round stage will be determined by stage strike system.
* No player may choose a stage they have already won on in that set unless agreed upon by both players.
* In teams matches, ports will be 1221.
* If the timer runs out, the victor is determined first by stock and then by percentage.
* If sudden death occurs, sudden death will be ignored and a 1 stock, 4 min overtime match will take place on the same stage.
* Make sure you fix your controller and your tag before you start playing. 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.


Banned Techs

* Infinite wall grab if the opponent is over 250%. Does not apply if the wall will eventually go away, i.e. PS1.
* Stalling, including planking and scrooging, is banned. Stalling is 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. If you are unsure a tactic is considered stalling, ask the TO before using it

To clear up some confusion though, I added Final Smash to the title because it's recognizable. On all the other forums it's known simply as Revolucion.

Alrighty, I'm fine with that. Can we have more Brawl events, like low tiers or random characters?

I definitely want to come to this. I haven't been to a OoC tourney in a while and I know FS is good. :)

Also, there is a mistake in the Melee section. It says Singles will start after Singles is finished...TIME PARADOX.

While I already have a fair amount of Wii's coming in from San Antonio, I'm making a meeting with the other organizers. If we get enough set ups, I'll try to add another Smash event or two.

I'm gonna need serious help with it though, especially if multiple smash events are added. Greyfox, Espy, I'm looking at you guys ;)

Thanks for the error mention. I've been editing multiple threads today, mistakes were bound to happen.

Ok, I'll be at this...but why the 12 venue?
JUJ is wanting to go as well but ask the same thing.

Also, KM you can expect me and Espy to help you out if you need it for sure. :)

I'm going to make sure we have a section of the room dedicated to smash.

The venue fee is higher because it's a new venue that is much, much bigger than Gamelot, and it in turn costs more.

It'll be worth it though, because there will be more room, vendors, setups provided by Gamestop, and lots of events. I promise you are getting more bang for your buck.

Look on the brightside, it's not as much as a convention badge for WHOBO 2 (Nothing against WHOBO, I'm going myself, but you see my point. However it also makes sense, being at an anime convention.)

Well ****. I got Pound the week after this. I'll see what I can do.
Why not? It'll fund your trip :) and Santi can probably house you and Cake.

Green Greens isn't legal in Brawl? ;_;

I like that stage...it's perfectly fair.

Anyhow: now I REALLY need a job. >_> And it wouldn't be cool if my sister got a job before I did...I guess I might as well try Target against after my final exam tomorrow. >_> <_<

That's true but Hobo is guaranteed numbers.

Not to mention if there are more top players elsewhere, then I'm almost curtain that that's where our tops will be going.

...But we has shiny new place to break in?

Besides, PhantomX is coming here, and we have Espy, K Prime, and possibly Santi as local top players. >_> <_<

EDIT: I'm also trying to talk all of the Ike players into coming to this tournament.

You wouldn't make it to Grand Finals.

You'd lose to me, of course.
