RULES AND JUNK
3 Stock
8 minute timer
Team Attack: On
Items are set to "off" and "none"
Double Elimination for doubles & singles
Life-Stealing is Legal (Doy)
Metaknight is banned.
All sets with the possible exception of winner's finals, loser's finals, and the championship are best of 3 matches (Losers and Winners Bracket Finals are best 3 of 5 matches)
If the timer runs out, the victor is determined first by stock and then by percentage. If both are tied, then a 1 stock replay will occur on the same stage, same characters.
In the event of a dispute, controller ports will be selected by Rock-Paper-Scissors
- 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 game ends in a suicide attack, honor the results screen. Should the game go into Sudden Death, there will be a one stock, 3 minute rematch on the same stage with the same characters.
-You are responsible for your own controllers, so be sure to bring an extra controller in case something happens to the one you are using. If your controller malfunctions mid-match, you may request a restart, but both parties must agree on it.
-Each player/team is allowed one stage ban—the chosen stage cannot be chosen by either player for the entire series. You can either choose to ban a stage before the first round, or before your opponent’s counterpick.
-No chaingrab can last past 300%. Any chaingrabbing that exceeds 300% is considered stalling and will result in a forfeit of the match.

LoZ's Stupid Boner Rule - In the event that you should find yourself excessively enjoying a match or it's surroundings, you are required a 5 minute break to walk it off. This is not optional.

PAYOUT
Doubles
1st - 60%
2nd - 30%
3rd - 10%

Singles
Under 24
1st - 50%
2nd - 25%
3rd - 15%
4th - 10%

24 or Over
1st - 45%
2nd - 23%
3rd - 15%
4th - 9%
5th - 4%/4%


STAGES
The neutral stage will be picked by stage strike method—each player/team takes turns striking one stage at a time, until there are only two neutrals left. The team who striked second then gets to choose between the two remaining neutrals. If there is a problem deciding who strikes first then a simple game of RPS will determine who picks second.
Note: No Player/team can choose a stage they’ve already won on. You can, however, choose a stage you have already lost on.

Neutrals
Battlefield
Pokemon Stadium [Melee]
Smashville
Battleship Halberd
Delfino Plaza
Yoshi's Island [Brawl]
Lylat Cruise


Counterpicks
Pokemon Stadium [Brawl]
Castle Siege
Pictochat
Brinstar
Final Destination
Norfair
Frigate Orpheon
Rainbow Cruise


Anyone can suggest moving a banned stage to the CP list up until the week of the tourney, but the TOs have the right to deny movement of certain stages (I.E. 75m)

Any player is allowed to play on a nonlegal stage, as long as both players agree to play on that stage. No johns if you lose on a stage you agreed to play on.

Location
Fountain Square Mall
101 W Kirkwood Ave
Bloomington, IN 47404
Map!

The Venue is the same as the last one--the game rooms in the basement of the mall. Basically, you go downstairs and turn right, and we'll be there playing. There will be signs, and an employee of The Game Preserve will be happy to give you directions downstairs as well.
As for parking, there's a garage on 4th street that connects directly to the mall, and parking is free! It's pretty sweet.

Brawl- Singles/Doubles

We will be using Brawl- 2.1, which can be found here: http://www.smashboards.com/showpost.php?p=12463610&postcount=2
Brawl- Singles: $5
[Potential]Brawl- Doubles: $5 per partner ($10 per team).

Rules
4 Stock
8 minute timer
Team Attack: On
Items are set to "off" and "none"
Double Elimination for doubles & singles
Life-Stealing is Legal (Doy)
All sets with the possible exception of winner's finals, loser's finals, and the championship are best of 3 matches (Losers and Winners Bracket Finals are best 3 of 5 matches)
If the timer runs out, the victor is determined first by stock and then by percentage. If both are tied, then a 1 stock replay will occur on the same stage, same characters.
In the event of a dispute, controller ports will be selected by Rock-Paper-Scissors
- 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 game ends in Bowser/Ganon/Kirby/Dedede suicide, do not go into sudden death, and whoever initiated the kill move is the winner.
In case of a glitchª, lemme know and I'll decide where to go from there.
ª If you are caught stalling with Wario on Brinstar, you will be DQ'd. Don't think I won't catch you!

You are responsible for your own controllers, so be sure to bring an extra controller in case something happens to the one you are using. If your controller malfunctions mid-match, you may request a restart, but both parties must agree on it.

LoZ's Stupid Boner Rule - In the event that you should find yourself excessively enjoying a match or it's surroundings, you are required a 5 minute break to walk it off. This is not optional.

Stages
A couple notes here
1. Last time it was necessary to give you guys a skeleton of the stages for your SD cards--when 2.1 releases, all of these stages will already be on the SD card so you don't have to worry, you can just bring Brawl- 2.1.
2. Each player gets two stage strikes--there are an abundance of stages so an extra stage strike is given to each player before his/her opponent counterpicks.


Neutrals
Battlefield
Yoshi's Island
Smashville
Lylat Cruise
Pokémon Stadium
Dream Land 64
Frozen Pokemon Stadium 2
Delfino Plaza
Final Destination

Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3

We can either do Teams or Singles--probably Singles. But Teams would be sweet!

Marvel Singles: $5
Marvel Teams?!: $5 per teammate ($15 per team)

Rules are real easy and junk.

So if the Huntington crew shows up the night before, does anybody want to livestream Mario is Missing?

Figured we'd run through that to prepare for the tournament.

EDIT: What are the chances of getting a $1 first to 50 MM going for UMvC3?

I really don't know about this.

I just don't know, I don't want to drive but there's nobody to give me a ride. If I had my own car I'd be cool with it. :/

WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE FOREVER AWAY?

Alright, just checked and the wedding's the weekend before this so I'm good to make it here. Pretty sure Crash will be up for it as well, and I'll try to get Wangston in on it too.

Edit: May be bringing a friend, actually. And might be shooting for two cars from Louisville.

I am pleased to announce that all future Don't Blink events in IL will be run using LoZ's stupid boner rule in addition to the regular rule set. Thank you DtJ members.
