It was just a year ago when Sauga hosted it's first huge tournament since TransCanada. It seemed like yesterday when we saw the 7-feet tall Peach main face off against the short Irish + Ginger Falco main. It seemed like just yesterday when Imadh mained Mario, James mained Sheik, David mained Kirby and Nate mained Luigi. While the GTA shot up with new talent, the scene had went through a smash uproar. As the Melee season comes to an end, Sauga hosts it's last tournament before Brawl comes out. Sauga presentz - The 2nd annual Clash of the Sauga: The Finale ends with a Melee

Coaching is allowed between matches, nothing too loud. Don't have it distracting the other player. Talking, sneering, and giggling from coaches is allowed, just try not get too loud.

Trash talking Is allowed as long as its friendly. Respect the players. No fighting, no rough stuff, no overly abusive language or yelling...you know the deal. Be nice, and try to be a good sport about losing. No johns please, and if you are going to john make it discreet. We don't sourpusses to ruin our day. You know who you are. Let's just try to have fun @ this **** :]]

Please bring your own controller. Please lol.

Guys I wanted to discuss Zoso's Counterpicking rule


Zoso's Counterpick Rule: Winner of previous match must remain the same character for the following match. Loser can either change their character or pick a stage, not both.

What do you think of the rule? It seems to be used around a lot.

Lol, I like: "Respected players are then placed into the bracket"

And that wobble rule is pretty gay, it is like a Marth chain throwing a Falco, and saying, you can't tipper them after a thow, they go to the opposite side and resume play. Or the same thing for Sheik, or whatever.

It is part of the game, either ban it or not. This is exactly like those Japanese crazy rules where they limit themselves from actually getting better in all aspects of the game.

Andy = too good

I fully agree with him. Let's just decide on ban or not.

I vote for no ban, seeing as wobbling really isn't that game breaking. God if we want something game breaking or ACTUALLY broken to ban we should be looking at like the shine, tippers, rest, Sheik, and other stuff.

With a little bit of luck, we might be able to get enough K-W-C people to form a crew. I don't know about anyone else, but I've been dieing to play a lot of you people since TransCanada. ^_^

I'm actually down for coming to this. Could someone house me if I do come though? I'd like to see how well I do without having to face all those silly top 8 mtlers who beat me all the time.

either way, put me down as unconfirmed as I'm definetly down for seeing you guys again (and the many who didnt come down to O-town).

ohhhhh

wobbling is pretty game breaking, it's just that fox is infinitely more game breaking.
Smash is pretty much broke.
either way i say no ban as wobbling isn't a big deal and we dont have IC players in canada with the leet skills to be winning tourneys it seems.

LOL Also make sure not to use the Zoso counterpick rule, cause that **** is hilariously bad, I dont even want to get into how badly that can be exploited.

Anyways, this **** sounds awesome. Hopefully its not caketown far or people can helps with tha driving.
Would be really cool to get some of the mtlers who aren't the usual suspects. Although it'd be awesome to have them too of course.

Also, Adnan throw me on staff, seeing as how I'm uber leet and **** lol.

i'm not trying to be too nitpicky or anything, but i have a few rules questions.

whats with the best of 11 business? seems long and a bit much. standard stuff for toronto? There are only 7 legal counter pick stages so if it actually goes to 11 you'd have to pick 5 of them, no? I don't see most characters having 5 levels to pick even, wouldnt best of 7 or even 9 be better?

What's with Foreside being legal in doubles?

What's with the jungle japes legal but the green greens ban? They're both very similar in how much gay is in them.

What's with the no banning random levels? Random levels are ghey.

Just wondering if this is stardard t. stuff or what.

<_<

Actually Thad, a lot of that stuff had me going " wtfzors?" too, and will probably be iron'ed out before the actual tournament date.
Except the green greens ban.
**** green greens and its exploding blocks and flying apples.

Hah, no problem. Its all good.

Although it did really suck that I lost 3 key matches that day (You, Jarc, Testrider) due to random uncontrollable things shooting/hitting/exploding me.
I mean, it definetly was a downer.

Ok two things. Doubles in 1 hour only? What the hell?

2nd, Why is green greens banned from singles play?


Schedule looks very tight to me...

EDIT

Hm what do you mean by "Random select stages cannot be knocked out. " No banning neutral stages? I hope I read wrong.

2nd EDIT

The counterpick stages for doubles are wack, what the hell. Fourside? Great bay? Why not include Hyrule Temple then?
