Welcome to Fight Night at the Dojo! This is a tournament/smashfest that I plan to continue regularly (bi-weekly?) if all goes well. The Twin States smash scene has always been very quiet and divided, so I hope to be able to bring everyone together in order to foster some great competition. Both Melee and Project M will be played, so if you play either of those games you will have a good time here!
Smashfest/Tournament Setup
Because this is the first event at this place, it is hard to pin down numbers of participants. As such, people are free to sign up for any tournament they would like - Melee singles/doubles and Project M singles/doubles. These tournaments will not be capped, and can be very small, but if there are five or less entrants we will not run an official bracket. At that point it's easier to play money matches anyhow.
If this event takes off, and I have confidence it will, this will become more set in stone. For this first outing, let's just make sure to have fun!
Venue
Gracie Jiu-Jitsu of the Upper Valley is a martial arts dojo that I train at. The owner, who is a gamer himself, has graciously allowed me to set up a tournament in his space. It is very wide open with several outlets and lots of room for people to hang out and play smash. It is also located above a pizza place/bar and an Asian restaurant/bar, which makes eating at the venue easy. And delicious. It is less than a mile off of I-89's exit 18, and quite easy to find.
We will be able to play from 3:00 until the building closes, possibly even later past then.
Setups
In short, we need them! I can account for three, possibly four setups. Past that, we need your help. If you have a CRT and a GameCube/Wii to play smash on (and if you regularly play smash you probably do) please bring it! We sadly cannot provide you with a refund on your venue fee this time, but I will personally come and carry it all upstairs from your car and set it up for you if you so desire.
Rules
Tournament brackets will abide by Apex 2014 rulesets.
Melee Rules
Project M Rules
Last of all...
Spread the word! Smashfests are more fun the more people that attend. Come, bring your friends, make new friends, and have an awesome time! I'm excited to meet you all. For any questions, email me at barrett.womack1@gmail.com.
