TSA Biweeklies - Hot and amazing.

Before you ask any questions, please read all the rules on this first post.

We WILL make fun of you if you post a question that's been answered here.


April 14th -

We're going to go back to Singles and Doubles for this time's biweekly. One of the biggest changes we're making now is we're giving 40% of the pot to Emblem Lord's mother. We're also going to start having BBQ's just outside the building - this can help make some room inside the apartment as well as have smoe food handy instead of driving off and getting lost.

Emblem Lord is in charge this time. Let's show him your support!

Address:

124 Hana Road in Edison, NJ
  • The place is in a complex, and it's a bit hard to get into. Once you get to Building 20, you'll have to find parking in the lots without the numbers on them. Those belong to residential parking and you will be towed. It'll be on the second floor.

Train Information:

If you're coming in from New York Penn Station, make your way to Newark Penn Station. Edison Station is literally walking distance from the complex, so you would want to take the Northeast Corridor Line (NEC) from Newark Penn. The schedule for that day can be found here. It looks to be about the 8th stop after Newark Penn, and the trip itself takes about an hour.
  • Just give me a call at the biweekly and we'll pick you up.

Time
11 AM to 9 PM
  • We'll be stopping the games at 9 PM to clean up.
Events:

1v1 - $5 per person
2v2 - $10 per team
(40% will be given to the resident of the apartment.)

Rules

₪ BRING YOUR OWN CONTROLLERS
₪ All events will be double elimination
₪ Four (4) stock
₪ Eight (8) minute time limit
₪ Random Seeds
₪ In a set, character selection for the first round will be blind pick. The stage select for the first match will be chosen by random select or may be agreed upon by the players. Random select will be used if there is any disagreement on stage selection. After the first match, the losing player from the previous match must announce their choice for the next level or elect to have the next level selected at random. Once the stage selection has been announced, the winning player may choose to change their character. Once the winning player has chosen his character for the next match, the losing player may then choose to change characters. After the stage and characters have been set, the players play their second match.
₪ Stage Strike Rule - Each player or team can choose one (1) stage to remove from random select AFTER all players have selected their characters and have entered the stage select screen. Players may change their stage strike each time they enter the stage select screen. (DO NOT ACTUALLY REMOVE THE STAGES FROM THE RANDOM STAGES LIST)
₪ Dave's Stupid Rule Modified - The same stage cannot be played twice in a row during a set
₪ Each round is best of three (3) matches; Finals are best of five (5) matches
₪ In the event of a tie at the end of the time limit, the player with the most stocks wins the match. In case both players have the same amount of stock, the player with the lowest percentage wins the match. If both players have the same percentages, the players will quit the SUDDEN DEATH, set the stock to one (1), and start a bonus match on the same stage. If the bonus match goes to the end of the time limit- despite whatever the amount of stocks are left - then both players/teams will be disqualified from the tournament.
₪ Items will be turned OFF
₪ In the event of an equipment malfunction, the match will be restart from the last known position or from any point in the match that is agreed upon by the players.
₪ 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 match or makes it in any way unfinishable are banned. Using them will result in the immediate forfeit of the match.
₪ 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. Judges will be on the tournament floor and can be called in at any time to enforce this rule during a match.
₪ Nintendo Standard controllers only (any type of programmable controller must be inspected by a TSA member)
₪ BRING WAVEBIRDS AT YOUR OWN RISK. It will be your responsibility to find others with Wavebirds and sort out the frequency issues. If you bring a wavebird it is highly suggested to bring a normal Gamecube controller in case your Wavebird malfunctions.
₪ Random Stages for Singles: Final Destination, Battlefield, Fountain of Dreams, Dreamland 64, Pokemon Stadium, Yoshi's Story
₪ Random Stages for Doubles: Final Destination, Battlefield, Dreamland 64, Pokemon Stadium
₪ Stages Banned: Hyrule Temple, Fourside, Flatzone, Brinstar Depths, Icicle Mountain, Big Blue, Termina Bay and Yoshi's Island 64.
₪ For Doubles, Team attack is ON and life stealing is allowed.
  • Basically Smashtality rules, adjusted for the Biweekly.

House Rules


When there's food, you can eat anywhere except the living room. The couches are white, and the resident would like to keep it that way.

If you're a smoker, feel free to smoke outside. Otherwise, the smoke from inside the house will go up to the loft, where most of the smashers will be.

  • You can't enter the bedroom that's there.
  • Emblem Lord wants to emphasize, but no stealing in his mommy's apartment.
  • There's a loft at the top of the house with an opening to the living room - don't jump through that opening. Just so you guys happen to have any ideas.
  • We're looking for anyone who want to bring setups. Let me know and I'll list it here. There's a big screen there that can use a gamecube, which I'll probably bring.
  • Any TV's and cubes/game would be totally sexy.
  • You might also want to bring some folding chairs of your own.
  • Bring money for your food, and we will take orders for you. Probably a pizza a place or whatnot. We'll try to bring menu's to the apartment so you know how much they will be.
If anyone has any questions, post here. If you need to call me, my cell is (908) 447-8398. Please tell me if you're coming.

Total Possible Setups:

TV's: 0

If these are less than an hour from where I live I'll try to make it out to some of these, but if not it will be difficult.
