UPDATE #2: There will be a Brawl+ side event, hosted by KOKingpin. I'll update this section with more details soon.

UPDATE: FAP AIB LINK





General​

Ever since the end of the S.T.A.R.T. tournament series waaaaay back when, Alabama has really taken a back seat in terms of tournament hosting. Ever since I started playing back in late '06, I've wanted to host my own tournament. After finding a decent venue, I'm here to bring the tournament scene back to Alabama. And besides, North AL is where the legendary battle between Darkrain and Isai took place! What better place is there to hold a tournament!?

Welcome to FAP! If you don't like the name, gtfo or send me a better one >:d

This tournament is brought to you by me, j00t.

if you start fapping in my venue then I'll have to kick you out :p

Stages, Rules ​

General Rules:

  • 4 stock
  • 2/3 sets
  • 3/5 finals
  • 8 minute time limit
  • Items off
  • Ties broken by lives, then %
  • Double Blind character pick can be called at anytime.
  • Bring your own controller
  • Controller Mods, Glitches (IC Freeze Glitch, Mewtwo Soul Stunner, etc), and tactics used to stall a match (wall-bombing, rising pound, LUIGI LADDER), are banned.
  • WOBBLING IS BANNED.
  • Team Attack will be ON
  • Life stealing allowed

The *Pound* 4 stagelist will be used for FAP!

The order of play during a match is given below:

  • Both players, after picking their characters, will strike stages from the list of neutrals in a 1-2-1 order. That is, the first player strikes one stage, the second player will strike two stages, and the first player will then strike the final stage. Striking order is determined by controller port.
  • After the outcome of a match has been determined, the winner of that match will ban a stage from the list of neutrals and counterpicks (EXCEPT IN FINALS). The loser of the previous match will choose a stage, the winner will choose his character, and then the loser will choose his character. This step will be repeated until a winner of the match has been determined.
  • Only one stage may be banned by each player. This applies to finals matches where the match may extend beyond the third game.
  • Controller port disputes may be settled with rock-paper-scissors or a coin toss.

Housing ​

EDIT: WE ARE LETTING PEOPLE SLEEP IN THE VENUE FOR FREE!!! Just be sure to bring your sleeping bag and stuff so you won't be uncomfortable.

There are a few people around the Huntsville area that are willing to provide housing for this event.

EDIT: I CAN NO LONGER PROVIDE HOUSING. There are complications with my parents currently, and I don't want to bother them with even more stuff. Sorry guys :(

moogle, mslano, and Chad have an apartment that is a lot closer to the venue (around 10-15 minutes away) and I have gotten permission from them to advertise housing space in their apartment. I don't know how many people can fit in there, but they have three couches and a lot of floor space. I'd say around 15-20 people can cram in there. PM any one of these guys for housing.

Priority for housing goes to OOS. Sorry Birmingham :(

Food ​

I WILL BE BUYING PAPA JOHN'S PIZZA WITH THE VENUE FEE!!! The venue itself is free, so I intend to use it to buy food for everyone who attends. I will be getting large one-topping pizzas from Papa John's, and canned soda from some place.

$5 gets you:
a half of a pizza (I think it is 4 slices for a large pizza, it could be 5)
two canned sodas

IF YOU DO NOT WANT THE PIZZA + DRINKS, THEN YOU DO NOT HAVE TO PAY THE VENUE FEE!

Other than that, there are a lot of other places within acceptable driving distance from the venue.

Thanks to KOKingpin for the pizza+soda idea.

I expect this to be as large as the Tipped Off series, so it will definitely need two days.

If for some unexpected reason that this tournament is small, then I'll make it one day.

Heh. As large as the Tipped Off series, so it needs 2 days.

Yet, TO series has always been one day.

I'll definitely try to come

x] Oh true, and I'm sure Pound will find a way to get their Melee done in one day, with 291 people partaking.

Why not make that extra day.....
A Brawl day

Doesn't seem like I'll be able to pass this up, considering I'm so close...

Guess I'll have to get down to practice.

I wanted it to be "The Greatest Alabama Tourney Since Darkrain vs. Isai" or something like that. It was too similar to TGMTSBCO, however, and people liked FAP better.

Oh and j00t, I'm helping advertise this from AIB, for those who are in the AL thread over there.

It's the least I can do to help hype this.

Thanks, I think that I should post this event on there as well. Is that what you mean, or are you just promoting it on a thread there?

I'm promoting it in a group I have there. Also I'm constantly finding other AL players to invite to that group.
I'll save making the event for you, as for it is your tournament and I want you and the other TO's to have the credit lol.
