Attention Midwest Smashers:
The Game Attic of DuQuoin, Illinois will be hosting a SSBM and SSBB tournament on January 23, 2010 at the American Legion at 900 S Jefferson Avenue. Tournament rules for each will be standard rules as listed here on smashboards. At this point, we would like to do both SSBM and SSBB but if there is a predeliction among players to choose one game over the other, then we may only be able to play one game due to time constraints. I was told by staff that there are hotels near the venue. Any questions about the venue, housing, travels, other games being played, or etc, should be forwarded to www.ultimategamingchampionship.net OR you can call the director of the tournament, Matt Jackson, at (618) 318-2435.
Any questions regarding the SSB tournaments themselves can be directed towards me, Bryan, either through this thread, through a pm on here, my email address, bcarter_90@hotmail.com, and/or my cell phone at (618) 218-8928. please DO NOT call monday, wednesday, or friday until after 5 p.m. I have class on those days and may be taking a final if you do call. I have texting also, and if you want to text me, include your name and why you are texting me.

•4 stock
•2/3 sets
•3/5 semifinals+finals
•8 minute time limit
•Items off

•Stage Knock Out: Each person may choose one stage to be disabled for the entire set, it must be chosen at the beginning of the set, after initial characters are chosen.
•Advanced Slob Picks: Loser may choose the next stage or select to go random. The winner may then change their character, followed by the loser.

Stage Striking will be in effect for the first match of the set. The player with the lower port will get to choose the first strike. Loser choses ban before next match.
One ban per player per set. To be chosen after loss.
Modified DSR: You cannot go back to the last stage you won in a set, unless agreed upon by the other player.
The player choice clause!:: If both players agree to a rule outside of my ruleset, feel free to play by that. If one player wants to counterpick Mute City and the other player is fine with that because they think it's a fair stage, then that is more than fine. However in the event the two players disagree, house rules stand.
Brawl:
-3 Stock
-8 Minute Time Limit
-Items are set to "off" and "none"
-All sets with the exception of winner's finals, loser's finals, and the championship are best of 3 matches, with the aforementioned Finals sets being best 3/5 games.
-In the event of a dispute, controller ports will be selected by Rock-Paper-Scissors
-No player may choose a stage they have already won on in that set unless agreed upon by both players.
-If the timer runs out, the victor is determined first by stock and then by percentage
-Metaknight's Infinite Cape glitch is banned.
-Standing Infinites are BANNED which include (but not limited to) Dedede's small-step chain grab, Marth on Ness grab-release, etc
-Ice climber infinites are LEGAL up to 250%
-Suicide Move Rules: (all situations are when both players are at 1 stock): If a suicide move ends a match, the match will be reset with 1 stock each to both players on the same level. Time limit will be set to 3 minutes. Both players technically died at the same time, and that is why the match was a draw. Play out the one stock, and the winner wins that match.
-Players using a Wii-mote to play must take their batteries out when not playing. We can't be having wii's be interrupted because someone made a mistake. I will be enforcing this heavily, and there will be penalties if people do not obey.
-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.
Set format (In Order of Procedure):
1. Opponents choose their characters for the first match *
2. 1st Stage will be chosen at random unless agreed upon by both players. Each Player will be provided one Random Reset, with the lower-seeded Player given the option to use their reset first.**
3. The first game is played, using the stage chosen during step 2
4. The winner of the previous match may announce their Stage Ban selection
5. The loser of the previous match announces the next match's stage from either the Random Stage List or the Counter Stage List
6. The winner of the previous match chooses their character
7. The loser of the previous match chooses their character
8. Repeat steps 5-7 for all proceeding matches
*Double blind character selection may be called for the first match
**If neither Player has chosen to use their Random Reset within 3 seconds of the match starting, the match must be played out on the stage generated.
Neutral Stages:
-Battlefield
-Final Destination
-Smashville
-Yoshis Island
-Lylat Cruise
Counterpick Stages:

Additional Rules for Doubles Play:

-Team attack will be set to ON
-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.
-Chibo's Color-Blind Rule: If a player on a team is playing Lucario, Sonic, or Pokemon Trainer, either team can request for them to be Blue Team and the opponents must abide. If both teams have one of the characters, they must work it out between them.
All other questions of rules will be directed to me.
Pricing will be $15 per person for singles and $30 per team for doubles for both SSBM and SSBB. If you pre-reg through the website, there are packages available that will save you a bit of money if you intend on playing both SSBB and SSBM singles and/or doubles.

Bryan
