PROCEDURE:
Each section will have a set number of participants. All participants should be present during their section’s competition. In each section, the competitors will be split into pools in where they will compete against each other.
Each competitor will play two full games against each other competitor in their pool. Wins will be awarded to the winning player. In the result of a draw game, neither player will be awarded a point. For example, if Player A defeats Player B in game one and game two results in a draw, Player A will have received one point and Player B received none (zero).
At the conclusion of pool play for the active section, the eight players with the best records will be placed into a small bracket and seeded according to their record. This bracket will be a small double elimination bracket. Matches will consist of a set of best two of three games. Upon completing these brackets, the Top 2 participants will move on to the final bracket: first place receiving winners seeding and second place receiving losers seeding.
For all Top 8 brackets in finals and sectionals, the participant coming from the loser’s bracket in the grand finals must defeat the winner’s bracket champion in two sets. The participant advancing from the loser’s bracket must defeat the champion of the winner’s bracket in two sets in order to place first in his section.
In sectional brackets, ALL matches are best two of three. In the final bracket, all finals matchups will be best three of five (Winner’s, Loser’s and Grand). As before, the participant advancing from the loser’s finals to grand finals must defeat his opponent in two sets.
When your match is called out, you are expected to be at the specified station within five minutes of being called. At the five minute mark, your name will be called once more. If you are not present within thirty seconds, you will receive a loss for that match, resulting in either being moved to the loser’s bracket or a tournament loss in bracket play or a loss for both games in pool play.
If you need to leave the tournament room for ANY reason, please inform the tournament director, a tournament assistant, or your pool operator. They will attempt to accommodate you as much as possible.
STAGE STRIKING:
We will use STAGE STRIKING to start the set. NOT RANDOM. Basically, Player A chooses one stage from the Starter list that he doesn't want to play. Player B picks a stage he doesn't want from the remaining list. Players A & B alternate until only one stage is left. This is the stage for the first match.

SETUPS: There will be 6 setups ready for it as far as I know, I'll keep you posted. I will bring my Wii and Brawl just in case. Others should do the same with their setups.
These rules are subject to change. When they do, I'll let everyone know.
I hope people will come to this. At least to have some fun.
