General Rules
-ALL RULES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE
-Signups end 15 min. before the scheduled start time for each event.
-BYOC (Bring your own controller): Players are expected to bring their own controller and be prepared for every tournament set.
-For Smash, pause can be requested off and that request cannot be denied. If one pauses mid-match, the person who initiated the pause loses their current stock. If the pause causes the opponent to lose their stock (Such as interfering with recovery), the person who initiated the pause loses two stocks.
-You are responsible for your own belongings
-Coaching is allowed only between games, not during.
-Once your set is done PLAYERS MUST IMMEDIATELY REPORT the results to the TO staff.
-DQ Rule: Arriving too late for a match will result in a DQ. Player(s) will have 5 minutes to show up before a loss of the SET. TO staff will not leave the venue to go searching for you so please be aware of how the tournament is progressing. YOU WILL GET DQ’D IF YOU DON’T ARRIVE TO YOUR MATCH ON TIME.
MONEY MATCHES ARE NOT EXCUSABLE! IF YOU ARE MONEY MATCHING WHILE STILL IN BRACKET YOU WILL GET DQ'D!
Collusion of any kind with your competitors and/or sandbagging is considered forbidden. If the Tournament Director determines that any competitor is colluding to manipulate the results or intentionally underperforming, the collaborating players may be immediately disqualified. This determination is to be made at the sole discretion of the Tournament Director. Anyone disqualified in this manner forfeits all rights to any titles or prizes they might have otherwise earned for that tournament.
The TO reserves the right to deny payout from event winnings to any player suspected of intentionally throwing a match, splitting a payout, or committing any other form of bracket manipulation.
-Players may request that any texture, stage, or other hacks be disabled during a tournament set. If this is unable to be done, they may switch to a different setup if available.
-Players may NOT hold off their match in order to have it streamed/recorded unless first cleared with the TO staff.
Melee Cactuar Stamina Pancake Rules
Cactuar (by Cactuar)
- Best of 7
- Random stage from everything except Icicle Mountain and Hyrule Temple
Stamina (by Nintendo)
- Stamina Mode
Pancake (by Zjiin)
- Random characters
- Starting with the winner from the last game, each player may decide to "flip" either character, meaning re-random them.
- For the first match, decide randomly who flips first (via rock-paper-scissors) or agree to no flips for the first match.
Rules Clarifications
- If Zelda is randomed, re-random again to determine if you got Zelda or Sheik. The top 2 rows = Zelda, the bottom row = Sheik. This makes it very rare to have sheik, since she destroys low tier characters.
- Select pichu before randoming. This is done to prevent disputes getting the same character twice in a row. If you "accidentally" hit B to repick Pichu, you are stuck with him.
- In the event of a double KO, both players recieve a win for the match. If the set count becomes 4-4 as a result, play one more game to decide.
- Wobbling is LEGAL.
Project: M Character Auction Tournament Ruleset
Event is capped at 32 entrants
1 character is picked randomly then auctioned off. This repeats until 32 characters have been auctioned off.
You can only play the character you won in the auction.
You can only win 1 character.
* 4 stock, 8:00 minute timer
* Items OFF and set to NONE
* Buffer OFF
* Double elim. Best of 3 except Winners’ Finals, Losers’ Finals and Grand Finals matches which will be best of 5 format.
* Ties after the time limit are determined by stocks, then by percentage.
* If a match ends with both players dying at the same time resulting in Sudden Death, a 1-stock rematch will be played out on the same stage.
* If each player has one stock remaining and the match ends due to a suicide move (Ganon's side-B, DDD's swallow, holding someone in a grab on a platform as it moves out of the boundaries, etc.), the player who initiated the move wins.
* Any action that can prevent the game from continuing (freezing, disappearing characters, game reset, etc.) will result in forfeiture of the match for the player that initiated the action. You are responsible for knowing your own character and must be wary about accidentally triggering one of these effects.
* Starter stages (Singles): Battlefield, Dream Land 64, Pokemon Stadium 2, Smashville, Yoshi's Story (Melee)
* Counter-pick Stages (Singles): Final Destination, Fountain of Dreams, Yoshi’s Island (Brawl), Wario Ware, Green Hill Zone, Skyworld
* First stage is decided by banning from the Starter Stages in P1-P2-P2-P1 order.
* Following stages decided by winner banning TWO stages and then loser choosing.
* Winning player is not locked into the same character for the next match, but has to pick before loser selects character.
* You may not choose a stage you have already won on unless mutually agreed to.
*In the event that the game crashes or the TV/Wii loses power in the middle of a match, that match will be restarted from the beginning with the same characters and stage. If a player uses a known glitch to intentionally crash the game or otherwise make it unfinishable, that player may be forced to forfeit the match or be DQed at the TO’s discretion.
*No excessive stalling (this includes abusing Jiggs’ Rising Pound and Mario’s Up-B Walljump)
