Rules:

BYOC

This is imperative, there will be no spare controllers, nobody will bring a controller for you. So you must Bring Your Own Controller!!

Controller Rules

Due to the lack of original Cube controllers found in shops, I am allowing Mad Catz, Logic 3, Wavebird and other 3rd Party controllers. I ask you all to watch your opponents controllers at any point when you feel it's safe to do so, or if you think they may be cheating. I will be walking around as well and watching and if I see anyone I suspect of cheating I will have the game paused and the controller tested as is.

VIOLATION OF ANY OF THESE RULES WILL BE PUNISHED!

You will be eliminated from the tournament, you will lose any game you were playing and any sets you may have yet to play will be classed as a loss for you. You will not be refunded any amount of money you may have payed and you will be disallowed entry to any other events happening that day.

To All Those Bringing/Using Wavebirds!!

Due to the way Wavebirds work, there are extra rules surrounding their use. First off, if I catch you cheating by having an accomplice play your game for you using the wavebird channel system, you will both be disqualified from all events immediately. Your money will not be refunded.

Second, due to the wireless technology in Wavebirds you may experience lag from the controller signals, interference or accidental channel stealing from other players. This WILL NOT be accepted as an excuse for a loss or an in game technicality. If you are bringing a Wavebird and intend to use said Wavebird in tournament play, you are accepting any and all possible risks that come with it's use.

In order to minimise confusion and accidental cross-channelling (A term I just made up, where two players use the same channel by accident, causing weird effects) I reccomend that everyone intending to use a wavebird in this tournament either PM me or post in this thread that you are intending to do so. If not, tell me on the day when you register that you will be doing as such. With this in place I can assign channel numbers that players are to use on the day and minimise accidental cross-channeling.

Pools

Upon paying your entry and cover fee, you will be entered into one of eight pools.
Each pool will have 4 or 5 people in it
Each pool will contain two seeded players.
Once the pools have been announced, each pool will be handed over to it's top seed who will make sure it advances smoothly.
You will play a best of three set against everyone in your pool.
The top two players in each pool will advance to a 16** Man Double Elimination bracket.
The top two are defined as the two players in a pool with the largest amount of game wins (Not set wins) If there is a tie, the winner will be whoever won in the set between the tied players.

**If more than 40 people attend the bracket will be expanded to accomodate 24 players. The top finishers in each pool will get a bye in Round 1 and in the first round of Losers bracket, everyone will get a bye.
Brackets

The brackets will be run in a Double Elimination format.
All Games in the brackets will be best of 3 up until the Semi-finals of both brackets.
The Semi-finals and Finals of both Winners and Losers Brackets will be best of 5.
The Grand Finals will be a best of 7

Doubles:

Doubles will be the exact same as singles, with two major differences:

1. There will be no pools, doubles will go straight into a double elimination bracket.
2. Mute City and Fountain of Dreams are banned stages in doubles due to frame-dropping (Lag) and cannot be played.
