Original post below:
Cal Poly Pomona SSBM tournaments will begin starting November 17th hosted by Kira.
All Cal Poly Pomona tournaments will be for Melee only. If you want to play Brawl, you may bring your own copy and setup to play AFTER the tournament has concluded.
PLEASE POST IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN COMING OR IF YOU CAN BRING EQUIPMENT! Thank you.
ADDRESS:
23 University Dr.
Pomona, CA 91768
The venue is at Aliso Hall, the farthest building in the Northeast corner of the campus.
PARK ANYWHERE IN F1 THROUGH F4, THE VENUE IS BUILDING 23
It is safe to park in these lots during the weekends.

FULL CAMPUS MAP:
Since the venue is always locked, you'll have to call me or someone else there so we can open the door for you.
SCHEDULE:
Doubles bracket will begin at 11am SHARP. That means get here before 11am to sign up. You can come later for singles, but if the bracket has already started then it is too late to sign up.
Most likely the tourney will be done before 8pm, depending on how many people attend. I think last time we ended at like 7, but honestly I have no idea.
ENTRY FEES:
Singles: $5
Teams: $10 per team ($5 per person)
No Venue or Electricity Fee because I always thought those were lame and I'm not throwing this to profit.
NOTE: While it is free to spectate and not enter the tournament, friendlies will not be allowed while the bracket is being run. If you don't enter the tournament and want to play friendlies, you'll have to wait until after the brackets finish, since tournament matches have priority.
EQUIPMENT:
A tournament can only be as good as the people who come. So we need people to help bring TVs and Gamecubes. We have couches, chairs, tables, etc. so just a TV and system is needed. Please post if you can bring anything.
VII. RULES
General (apply to all events unless otherwise noted):
* Items off.
* Ties are broken by remaining lives, then %. If both criteria are tied, then the Sudden Death match will be played out.
* First stage is random from the Neutral stages listed below.
* Each player is allowed to reset the random stage once; this forces a new random stage to be picked. If the new stage has been previously reset by either player during the same set, that stage is reset again. (Random Stage Reset)
* The loser of the first match will announce a new stage to play on for the next game. The winner will then be allowed to switch characters, followed by the loser. Apply the same logic for the third match (and fourth/fifth when applicable) if there is one. (Advanced Slob Picks)
* No stage may be used twice in a single set if the counter-picking player has already won on that stage, unless the opponent agrees to use the stage again. (Dave's Stupid Rule)
* Double Blind character pick can be called at anytime before the first game of a set starts, and only apply to the first game.
* Each person (or team) may choose one stage to be disabled for the entire set. You can ban neutral stages. This does not include the random reset at the beginning of the match.
* Glitches (IC Freeze Glitch, Mewtwo Soul Stunner, etc), and tactics used to stall a match (wall-bombing, rising pound), are banned. L-trigger mods, shorthop mods, and turbo controllers will NOT be allowed during tournament play.
* For doubles: Team Attack will be ON, life stealing allowed.
* Wobbling is banned. Anyone caught wobbling must either lose stock or forfeit the current game, depending on a staff member's judgment.
Payouts:
1st: 60% of pot
2nd: 30% of pot
3rd: 10% of pot
Brackets:
* Bracket matches are best 2 of 3, 4 stock.
* 8 minute time limit.
* Double Elimination
* Winners' bracket finals, losers' bracket finals, and championship sets are all best 3 of 5.
* If two players who have already played in Winner's Bracket meet again in Loser's Bracket, they will play a continuation set. I did a poor job trying to explain this with text, just ask for Kira at the tournament if this comes up and I'll tell you how it works.
I will be using Tio to run this tournament.
Stages:
* Singles Neutral: Final Destination, Dream Land 64, Fountain of Dreams, Battlefield, Yoshi's Story, Pokemon Stadium
* Singles counterpicks: all Singles Neutral stages plus Pokefloats, Rainbow Cruise, Jungle Japes, Kongo Jungle 64, Mute City, Brinstar, Green Greens, Corneria.
* Doubles Neutral: Final Destination, Dream Land 64, Battlefield, Yoshi's Story, Pokemon Stadium.
* Doubles counterpicks: all Doubles Neutrals plus Kongo Jungle 64, Pokefloats, Rainbow Cruise, Jungle Japes, Brinstar, Green Greens, Corneria.
* Things to note: Fountain of Dreams and Mute City are banned for doubles, Mushroom Kingdom II and Termina Bay are NOT allowed as counter-pick stages.

We had 8 setups the first time and 5 the last time. I'm expecting 7-8 because P is bringing TVs this time.
