The PAYOUT

Singles:

40 - 79 players = 55 / 30 / 10 / 5
80-99 players = 55 / 25 / 10 / 5 / 2.5 / 2.5

Doubles:
1-9 teams = 80 / 20
10 - 19 teams = 60 / 30 / 10
20 - 39 teams = 55 / 30 / 10 / 5
40-59 teams = 55 / 25 / 10 / 5 / 2.5 / 2.5
60+ teams = 50 / 25 / 10 / 5 / 3⅓ / 3⅓ / 1⅔ / 1⅔




1. Each match should be a 3 Stock battle with a 8 minute timer

2. Items are set to "off" and "none"

3. Set format (In Order of Procedure):
For Game 1 of each set, the higher seeded Player/Team must strike 1 Stages from the list of Starter Stages. The lower seeded Player/Team must then strike 2 Stages from the list of Starter Stages. The higher seeded Player/Team must then choose the Game 1 Stage from the remaining Starter Stages.
*Double blind character selection may be called for the first match

4. All sets with the possible exception of winner's finals, loser's finals, and the championship are best of 3 matches (best of 5 and above is recommended for any "finals" matches)

5. In the event of a dispute, controller ports will be selected by Rock-Paper-Scissors

6. No player may choose a stage they have already won on in that set unless agreed upon by both players.

7. 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.

8. If the timer runs out, the victor is determined first by stock and then by percentage.

9. Any action that can prevent the game from continuing (i.e., freezing, disappearing characters, game reset, etc.) will result in a forfeit of that match for the player that initiated the action. You are responsible for knowing your own character, and must be wary about accidentally triggering one of these effects.

10. By entering the tournament you agree to have any tournament matches be recorded if possible, and be uploaded without the need for consent by the players in the match. The only time a match can be requested not to be uploaded is with extraordinary occurrences such as a power outage during the match. Failure to abide by this rule can result in a DQ for a tournament match. Reasoning: I believe that if players attend tournaments and play with the potential ability to win money at the expense of the community, the community is allowed to watch matches that are part of these tournaments that had money on the line.

11. The Mage's DQ rule is also in effect:
2 Minutes Late: Warning/Loss of first stock
4 Minutes Late: Loss of first match of set
6 Minutes Late: Loss of set


Specific rules

DeDeDe's Infinite grab. You CANNOT Chain grab IN PLACE. NOT EVEN ONCE. The small step CG is banned as well. Normal CG is legal.

The Infinite grab-release on ness/lucas is banned. You must HIT them out of the release, do not re-grab.

Bowser/Ganon suicide attacks. If these moves are used to end a match and a sudden death is then started. Bowser/ Ganon will be declared the winners.



Stalling

Stalling: The act of deliberately avoiding any and all conflict so that one may make the game unplayable. Running away from an opponent to reach a better position is not stalling. Plainking is a perfect example. If i see it, you WILL lose your ENTIRE SET. No warnings! Play, dont gay.


MetaKnight Ledge Grab Limit Rule

ALL METAKNIGHTs that enter a match will be under the LGL rule. Metaknights are allowed to grab the ledge a TOTAL of 40 times PER MATCH(assuming the game goes to timer). The numbers can be viewed AFTER a match on the results screen. If you exceed the limit even by a single ledge grab you will lose your entire SET or match( the TO will decide).


Stage Gliding Rule(metaknight ONLY)

Due to recent events of M2k vs Meep/Gnes, i have created the Stage Gliding Rule. Metaknight is not allowed to glide under ANY stage more than 2 times in a row. He MUST land an attack in order to be able to reset the the stage glide count.

If I can get someone to either drive me home after the tourny, or house me after it, then I'll be able to stay long enough to enter more than just 1 event. Hopefully that happens

Seriously, Xyro. Replace Jungle Japes with Pictochat. D:

Anyways, teams?

Also, are infinites on Wario legal?

I'm definitely hitting this up. I'm getting 13th or higher. Tired of being 17th. As usual I can house. Leaf...teams?

I also want to do something about the HOBO grant. If you want, I can help keep track of that with you Xyro. I really want OOC and OOS people to make an appearance. I think the HOBO grant should be part of the OP and we should ask about it during sign up.

Sorry for being such a free rider, but you said I'm allowed to all HOBOs's events for that photoshop. If not, it's cool just wondering :p

Ideally, to give mid-tier mains a chance people to win some money...same thing with low-tier.

Also what's up with that HOBO grant???[/COLOR][/QUOTE]

I keep forgetting even though ozz reminded me 2 times at hobo 27. We have 36$ saved up right now.

[quote="Zigsta, post: 11140025"]Austin will likely be at this.

Also, why is the wrist band $10 now?
Ughhh 10 dollar wristbands? :(
Funplex is giving us the "ZONE" which is a room 4 times as big as the "smash hallway" that we played in for HOBO 27. We need this room because its the 1 year anniversary for De Angelo's TYS series so he thinks it will be HUGE. Ive set LT 1vs1 at 5$ and i could maybe even lower teams to 5$ if it would help out people but i would have to have alot of people agree to that before i change it.

Seriously, Xyro. Replace Jungle Japes with Pictochat. D:

Also, are infinites on Wario legal?


I'll come if you take off Jungle Japes and put in Pictochat.

:069:

Infinite on Wario IS legal.

As for taking away japes, its a completely fair stage. It was totally fair in melee and that stage had NO MERCY(you did not float and klap trap did 1-hit-ko) so its definitly fair in BRAWL. However, if you guys truly HATE it that much then lets replace it. I truly HATE pictochat and so do others so lets find a middle ground some how.

Add picto and keep japes?
Add another stage and take away japes?
Add no extra stages and take away japes?

HOBO grant rant
if you want to collect HOBO grant money at your fest and/or at HOBO 28 ill let you be in charge. I can give you the file of donations and names.



I should be there. I got this (no I don't).
PLEASE try and go.

Didn't even realize side event was LT 1v1.

I bet I can get Top 4 with my Zelda in Low Tier 1v1.
I doubt it, scum bag!

Someone remind me to get some matches recorded at next HOBO. I really need to see my mistakes. Or someone should call me out on them...
I NEED to get better. No more being Houston trash.

Norfair is much better than Japes imo. Lavas easy to avoid, but sometimes you just can't avoid getting klapped yo. Yeah MK ***** hard on Norfair but how many MKs do we have anyways.

Poor Xyro. He takes of Picto because people complained about it for a while, now people are complaining that they want it back (I know it's not the same people, but still. That's gotta get annoying after a while).

Klap traps appear every 10 seconds. If u can remember how long snakes nades are out and where both of his mines are during a battle then it should be no problem to handle japes.


I may just add picto/pkmn 2 and call it a day
