All decisions made by tournament officials are final.
Players must conduct themselves in a reasonable manner. Permanent ejection of a player from the tournament is at MY discretion.
Any sign of cheating will also result in forfeit of the game.
Any intentional forfeiting or conspiring to manipulate the brackets will result in ejection and possible suspension from future tournaments.

Tournament staff may randomly inspect any controller at their discretion. If you are caught using a banned controller you will be immediately 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.
The stage for Game 1 will be selected at random unless both players/teams can agree on one.

- The higher seed has first choice for their seat(s) and controller port(s). The higher seeded team has first choice for their team color. Teams must sit together on one side or the other. If players/teams meet for a 2nd time in a specific bracket, the winner of the 1st series will have seat and controller choice.
- After characters have been selected for the first game, each player/team may choose one stage from the available tournament list that won’t be used during the series. The lower seeded player must make their banned stage choice first. Once the first game has started, stages can’t be banned.
- After each game of a series, the player who lost the previous game may choose the stage for the next game or elect for it to be chosen randomly. After the stage has been selected, the winner of the previous game may change characters. After the winner has chosen their character, the loser of the previous game may change characters.
- For the first game of a series, a player may call for a double-blind pick. This means that all participating players must tell a judge the character they will use for that game. Each player is required to use that character in the game.
- During Championship Bracket competitions, players may ask for a double-blind pick during games four and five of a series. Players must call for the pick after the loser of the previous game has chosen the next game’s stage.
- If players/teams meet for a 2nd time either Championship Bracket, their series will expand to a best of 11, include the previous series, and pick up where that series left off. For example, if Player A beat Player B 3 games to 0 in the Winners Bracket, the Best of 11 will resume with Game 4 and Player leading 3 games to 0. The loser of the 1st series will choose the stage for the 1st game of the 2nd series and players may call for a double-blind pick before any game throughout the best of 11.
- If the players/teams meeting in the Finals have not yet faced each other in a series and the team coming from the Losers Bracket wins the first series, another series must be played to break the tie since both players/teams would only have one series loss.

5$ door feeIn the past these tournaments have taken a very long time to end, and that was back when when it was just melee. The reason for this is a lot of unnecessary delays created by tournament entrants not acknowledging the fact that they have a tournament match or simply leaving the venue altogether to get something to eat, which sometimes takes over an our. That is very inconsiderate to every one who paid good money to enter this competition, and would like it to run smoothly.
With that said I would like every one to know that this tournament will run much stricter than in the past. If there is an empty TV and your match is called out to play on it the next set of names will be called to play on it and etc. Now, if your match is called and there is no one else there to play their match on that TV, then you will have about 5 minutes to respond or you automatically forfeit you're match(unless you entered both tournaments and you already have a match in progress in one of them, your opponent will have to wait). Which also means that if you are in the winner's bracket you will be put in the loser's and if you're in the loser's bracket already then you are automatically disqualified from the tournament.
However if you let whom ever is in charge of monitoring the bracket and calling out the matches that you have an emergency. For example if you have to use the bathroom or are about to get a parking ticket(there is a police station directly across the street from the venue) then you may be given a few more minutes according to your situation.
Also, the tournament will begin at 1:00 pm. If you think you're going to be late call gamers xperience, they may delay the tournament for a few minutes until your arrival. However, if only a small amount of entrants arrive by 1:00pm the tournament will be delayed until there is a decent amount of players, but those are the only acceptions.
No one is exempt from these rules not even myself. So please take these rules seriously, especially if you're coming in from out of state.
thank you for reading this obnoxiously long post
