Singles and Doubles; SmashFest to precede/follow depending on time we start tourney.
SETUPS will greatly be appreciated.
Brawl will happen ONLY upon request and if people bring enough Brawl setups. I cannot guarantee Brawl; PM me to coordinate. I also cannot provide a ruleset for Brawl because I don't know where to find one; I would suggest someone else bring a printed set of rules to "officially" be used. Lastly, if Brawl happens, there will be singles and doubles plus an additional tourney fee (probably $10).
I'll have to go see for exact numbers, but it has one main room (prolly 8 setups) one smaller living room (6) and one storage room (where chairs and tables are kept; if these chairs and tables are put to use, then extra setups may be put in here). Ill check out exact numbers when I get a chance. The rooms are larger than their outlets suggest, so with extension cords/surge protects, they should fit more than predetermined. BTW it has a kitchen (for drinks), a some small furniture (no spilling doritos), a porch (if things get too crowded, u can always step outside), a pool (no, u cant enter; u are not allowed in), and a big @$$ backyard (for football, dodgeball, hackysak...w/e u ppl like 2 do). **I called it a cenacle tourney because I knew it would get your attention!!!!! HAHA IT WORKED --and if you looked it up to see what it is, no, No DINNER will be provided

No stage may be used twice in a Best of 3 or Best of 5 Series. The random select stages are the only stages that may be used more than once in a best of 11 series.
After characters have been selected for the first game, each player/team may choose to knock out one stage. Stages that are knocked out won't be used during the series. Random select stages can't be knocked out. The lower seeded player/team must make their knockout selection first. Once the first game has started, stages can't be knocked out.
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.
Other Rules & Special Issues
1. Any unnecessary pausing of the game will result in a forfeit of that single game.
2. Glitches used to stop your opponent from controlling their character or indefinitely freezing them (Mewtwo's Soul Stunner, the Ice Climber freeze glitch), or any glitch or trick that freezes the game or makes it unable to be finished are banned and will result in the immediate forfeit of the entire match.
3. Tactics such as Peach's Wallbombing and Jiggly's Rising Pound are allowed as methods of recovery or to maneuver 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. If by using one of these tactics, you have put your character in a place to lose a stock by ending the tactic, a judge may force you to stop and lose a life and continue the match short a stock.

More specifically, to those of you in the tidewater area (im in Williamsburg)
WE NEED TOURNEYS! Im fairly new here, so I don't know exactly where a post like this should go. If i'm in the wrong, please direct me somewhere more fitting, but for now, we must discuss what we can do to bring the smash community to the Peninsula (I'd like headquarters to be in Williamsburg ;-) I mean, going to Newport News to play against the one cousin I have who is actually good at smash is fun, but I want a range of competition, and Im sure u do too! So why not solve our own problems? Post here if ur in the area and would like to raise a community around the tidewater area.
Who is to say that Calif. and NY should hog all the fun.
WE will rise as the new SMASH PROS!
