Glitches used to stop your opponent from controlling their character or indefinitely freezing them, 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 Jigglypuff's Rising Pound and Meta Knight's Dimensional Cape 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 dropping below levels intentionally and stalling underneath, is banned. Judges will be on the tournament floor can be called in at any time to enforce this rule during a match.

You are responsible to bring your own controller. Any controller is suitable for this tournament (Gamecube/Wii Remote/Nunchuck/Classic), just make sure people around you are not also syncing at the same time as you.

To preregister, just post your name, region and any equipment you're bringing. Preregistering helps us separate people in the brackets so you don't fight your friends in the same pool/first round of brackets.

Just another day.
I wouldn't mind coming to this. I'll try to see what I can do for this (Maybe this will be my main place to go to for tourneys since I'll be at college).

are you guys sure about having no venue fee and doing 100% of the pot? just make sure this doesn't hurt your business a bit and if you are gonna take a % of the pot, make sure you announce it.

as for this statement

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

the cosmetic changes have no effect towards any sort of modding (this is technically considered an external mod, since it doesn't affect any parts internally). I feel this rule is not needed as some players typically compete with paint jobbed controllers.

Wow I didn't even notice that, NSM. Thanks for pointing that out.

If that stays in effect, I won't be able to attend. And the last one I attended is kind of null and void, because I used a black/silver controller that time.

We ain't got no problem doing the no venue tournament. Our idea is that once you see how f**king awesome my store is, you'll come to the regular monthly's. And we're still going to continue to do the guarenteed 150.00. Like we said, we're here for ya'll, we just want people in the store. As for the offending paragraph, we're just stupid. It's been removed.

just want to notify you of this LG.

Min quite recently posted a tournament on the 29th called combo breaker, it would require alot of hype to keep this going. For one you might want to change the title to that date.

Just in case none of you read the Legendary Games monthly thread, the last update for it applies to this tournament as well.

As much as I would love to do guarenteed pots for the other games, the response I got from the last monthly for SF4 and BB from the Brawlers wasn't much and unfortunatly we're in middle Ga so I get no help from the locals. But if I get at least ten for either, then I will add guarenteed pots to the other events as well for future montlies. Also, to help with the issues of rides from the Atlanta area, we will be offering rides on a first come first serve basis, the amount of people we can accomedate is unown, but the rides will take place the evening before instead of the morning office. This will eliminate the need for players to have to wake up extra early and also the event having to start later do to travel issues. The picked up players will stay at the store the night before. Any other players that wish to stay at the store at the store are welcome, and their will be friendlies all night long AT NO EXTRA COST. Just PM us if you're interested.

I'm glad we'll have a decent turnout for this. We need to get a count of how many people are bringing setups. And we have random door prizes that are going to be giving out as well.

I want to try to make it to this now, but I have my last finals this Friday, and I don't get out until like 6PM.
I'll see if I can't scrape some cash together.
This place sounds awesome.
