Yeah I am sorry I couldn't get the info out sooner, we were waiting to here from Gamestop about getting Consoles and games. So things sortof materialized at the last minute.

so is this melee or brawl?
The Tournaments will be for Super Smash Bros. Melee as we could not aquire enough copies of Brawl to have enough Tournament stations to do Brawl.

Brawl will be here for play though at one or two of the stations, but just no tournament.

The rules will be the Standard MLG rules same I use @ ESCAPE, and if you check the tournament section that is where you will find all the tournaments held, for some reason on the actual schedule list it only shows one Melee Tournament but it is acutally 5 tournaments, 2 on friday and 3 on saturday as listed above and you can play in all 5 if you pay for all 5, so if you win all 5 thats $250.

Upade!

The 2nd Session of Smash on Saturday will be a Brawl tournament, the thrid tournament depending on a vote will either stay Melee or become a Brawl tournament. The first tournament will still be a Melee tournament.

Again this Update is for Saturdays Smash Tournaments.

That was a pretty fun tourney. Too bad not many people showed up and only 3 stations instead of 6. Fun nonetheless.
