Rules:

This tournament will be DOUBLE ELIMINATION.

*Game version: Nintendo Gamecube
*Game Settings: Singles VS Melee, 2/3 Games, 4 Stock, 6 Minute Timer, No Items
*If both players can agree on a stage, that stage will be used. If there is conflict, then the rules below come into action.
*Pool A: Final Destination, Kirby's Dreamland 64, Battlefield, Yoshi's Story, Pokemon Stadium, Fountain of Dreams.
*Pool B: Mute City, Green Greens, Rainbow Cruise, Kongo Jungle 64, Brinstar, Poke Floats, Corneria, Jungle Japes.
*The stage for Game 1 will be selected at random from pool A. Any games after that can be from pools A or B.
*After the stage has been selected by the losing player, the winner of the previous game may change characters, but has to pick first.
*No stage may be used twice in any given set.
*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 game or makes it unable to be finished are banned and will result in the immediate forfeit of the entire 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. If by using one of these tactics, you have put your character in a place to lose a stock by ending the tactic, a judge may force you to stop and lose a life and continue the match short a stock.

Can anyone confirm if the rules from Evo South are the same for this event? I'm mainly referring to the single elimination rule...
