There is going to be a strict no food policy. I'm tired of playing maid. Anyone with anything other than water in the room will be DQed on the spot. There is plenty of space to eat outside on the tables or in the halls. Respect the venue.

11:00 - Friendlies and sign-ups
12:00 - Doubles starts
Whenever - Singles, Other Formats
There will be a half-hour break in between Doubles and Singles for people to grab something to eat
Buy-in is $5
Payouts are:
1st - 60%
2nd - 30%
3rd - 10%
(subject to change depending on number of entrants)

Directions
The room is a bit hard to find if you're unfamiliar with the Davis Campus so PM me and I'll try to explain it as best I can. I've been informed that driving directions help. Basically you're going to be taking I-80 to Highway 113 N. If you're going west on 80 (ie from Sacramento) you'll hit Davis beforehand but just wait until 113. Once on 113 it's the first exit called Hutchinson. Go right onto Hutchinson after getting off the freeway and that will take you all the way onto campus, where you should park at you're first convenience. Basically you want to go all the way in on Hutchinson until you get to a brown building with a small silo sticking out of it.It'll be on the right. The best place to park is the lot immediately before that building. The building with the venue itself is called the South Silo and the venue is on the second story above the Silo Bookstore. My number is 253-310-3055

Format - Singles
Double Elimination
Best of 3
Finals are best of 5
4 stock/ 8 minutes
no items
Advanced slob picks
Dave's stupid rule
1 level ban per person per set
Any bans must be made at the beginning of a set
Excessive stalling (peach bomber, rising pound, etc.) is banned
Controller mods and glitches are also banned
Ties are settled by fisticuffs

Doubles
Basically the same

Wobbling compromise shamelessly stolen from another thread
A player has the choice to ban wobbling during any set. Once one player picks ICs, the other player has until the match starts to choose to ban

We're going to try the using a strike-out system from now on. DK64 will be added to the list of neutrals.
Strike out is as follows. To do strike out you need an odd number of neutral stages, so since most tournaments have the 6 neutrals(FD,BF,FOD,DL,PS and YS) many TO's either add or subtract a stage. I'm personally in favor of adding either Rainbow Cruise(like MLG did) or DK64. So at which point the two players decide who goes first(doesnt really matter but if they cant decide TO makes the decision). First player strikes a stage, then Player 2 strikes a stage, etc until there is just one stage remaining.

Example: Pink Shinobi vs SS
Pink Shinobi Strikes Rainbow Cruise
SS Strikes FOD
Pink Shinobi Strikes DL
SS Strikes Yoshi Story
Pink Shinobi strikes PS
SS Strikes BF

First stage is FD. Then Counter picks and the whole jazz follows.
TVs
1-7 Davis
8. Battousai (Don't you go to Davis now?)
9.
10.
11.
12.

Systems
1-7 Davis
8. Battousai
9.

Things of note:
-As far as food is concerned, there is nothing in the venue. There's a drinking fountain and bathroom and that's it. However there are places to eat fairly close to campus. Cold Soda will be sold for the price of 1 $/can.
-There will be one Brawl friendlies station if enough people want to use it. Otherwise this is a Brawl free tournament.
-Most tournament vets already know this, but don't take up tvs while tournament is going on, especially in the first couple of rounds. I reserve the right to kick you off if we need the tv for something.
-Anyone who wants to bring equipment is will be lavished with excessive praise.
-RSVP beforehand if you can so I can keep track, thanks. If you will be late, just call ahead. 253-310-3055

Maps/Pictures!
Here's one of the general UCD campus and the surrounding freeways. You ideally want to take 113 and exit on Hutchinson as indicated.

Here's one of the actual venue. It's the "South Silo" building.

This is the Silo building. The venue is behind it and there's parking to the right. It's across from a bus terminal

This is the actual building. Either go up the stairs that are next to the Silo Book store or take the elevator. Follow the signs to the Experimental College.

That's too bad Lunin. I'm sure paul and ericson will be happy though. VANS, didn't you say that last time too? btw, I work in quarto on Wednesdays so you should stop by the advising center after 8:30 to play! Or if you just want stats tutoring.

Yeah honestly, we just had a long weekend. I'm ditching my gf this weekend to run this thing. Tell your family you have priorities. And if you can convince lunin to come I'll rename it the Lunin Invitational! Use those feminine wiles ftw :)

There may be teams, i'm gonna leave it up to the people who attend. I know some people here have expressed a desire for a low tier, but chances are most people are gonna want to do teams.

Take 80 until you get to 113 North going to Woodland. I think the next exit is Hutchinson Drive which is the one you want. Take Hutchinson all the way into the campus until you hit a roadblock, and then turn into the parking lot on the right. Parking is free on weekends but that lot might be crowded. There are other lots near by but that one is right next to the building we're using.

Of course, einthesuperdog is the best at hosting! Even tho I know it was disappointing only 3 teams wanted to do doubles (modesto and ixninjax plus me). You still owe me a mm Miztik!:laugh:
