*NOTE* I'm sorry I posted this so late. I've had months to prepare this, and I have no excuse other than "I've been lazy and forgetful". With that out of the way, yes this is still happening, and I will do my best to make it a success, even if limited by the short notice.

This will be the third Melee tournament I've hosted at SFU and possibly the last that I will be hosting. The last two were very successful, especially the last one in April in which we had over 60 attendees. Also, this event will feature SSBM and SSB64 (though the focus will on Melee, of course, with SSB64 as a side event).

Date: January 5th
Location: SFU, Burnaby campus
Address: 8888 University Dr.

Other rules:
-- Controller mods of ANY kind (short-hop mod, L-trigger mod, etc), except for cosmetic changes (paint job, different colored plastic), are banned. If you are caught using a banned controller you will be disqualified from the tournament.

-- Turbo or programmed buttons of any kind are banned. You may use third party controllers or pads that have these features, but if you are suspected of using the banned features you will not be allowed to use that controller any longer.

--Glitches used to stop your opponent from controlling their character or indefinitely freezing them (Mewtwo's Soul Stunner, the Ice Climber freeze glitch), or any glitch or trick that freezes the match or makes it in any way unfinishable are banned. Using them will result in the immediate forfeit of the match.

-- Tactics such as Peach's Wallbombing and Jiggly's Rising Pound are allowed as methods of recovery or to manuever around the stage. Using them (or any similar tactics) to excessively stall a match, such as droping below levels intentionally and stalling underneath, is banned. I will be on the tournament floor and can be called in at any time to enforce this rule during a match

--You are responsible to BRING YOUR OWN CONTROLLER.


Please confirm with me that you will be attending, either through this thread, PM, or email (ecw6 (at) sfu (dot) ca). We can fit a lot of people in these rooms (we've had a lot of people attend these) and the surrounding area, but there is a reasonable limit of around 80 people, and I don't want to push that (we probably won't have that many people, but who knows?). If you're not confirmed and you just show up, that's alright, but I may need to ask some people to leave if there are too many, or people are being too loud.

3. Tiep (Patooty)

Could there actually be a low tier melee tournament this time? I was looking forwards to it last time, but it didn't happen.

Work's over and it's before school starts so I'm (Rushan) in. Haven't been on Burnaby campus in a looong time even though I go to SFU =P I'll email SFU Games Club and hopefully many of them show up too.

Edit: Which building was it in again? Applied Science I think?

there will probably not be enough people for ssb64 doubles, but people should suply more TV's and GC's, and if i can ask can anyone else suply VCR's or Tapes, if you can bring tapes not a VCR that is fine(or vice versa), but please as we wish to record most matches and post them, i can only suply my one VCR, also Evan i don't know if you need power bars or extention cords but as the turnament is in a phew days you should really make your last request now and update who is coming and what people are bringing.

anyone we look to be short of suplys i can suply 1 GC and 1 Wii but someone needs to bring a second copy of smash please, and if you can suply somthing, don't be lazy, bring it or else we will all be waiting for ever to play our games.

happy new years everyone, we shall see you at the turnament!
