Presents...

SMSHA01: King Of The Rouge!

WHAT
A tournament hosted by the Scarborough Campus Smash Club, with events for the two newest Smash games: Super Smash Bros Wii U & Project:M 3.50

WHERE
At the University of Toronto, Scarborough Campus
In the Social Sciences Building (the "MW" building), on the first floor, in room MW130

SCHEDULE
Registration: 12PM-1PM (1 hour), inside the MW building, but not necessarily in the room MW130. We have that room booked from 1 PM to 9 PM, but we may not have access to it before 1 PM. In that case, we will likely be in the main atrium (which is on the same floor) of the MW building, probably in the seating area which is right outside MW130. You can't miss it.

PRICES
No venue fee!
Super Smash Bros. Wii U 1v1: $5 Entry Fee (cash/change only)

Super Smash Bros. Project:M 3.5: $5 Entry Fee (cash/change only)

PRIZES
1st place for Super Smash Bros. Wii U 1v1
$35 Nintendo Prepaid Card for Nintendo eShop (for both 3DS and Wii U, valid only for use on Canadian 3DS/Wii U consoles only)

1st place for Super Smash Bros. Project:M: 1v1
$20 Gift Card to A&C Games (a video game store located in downtown Toronto)

The entry fees will be funds for the club to buy more equipment. Results will also be fed to an elo rating system so with future tournaments, see where you rank at the end of the year!
This means there will be no cash prizes!

RULESETS
For each game, the event will begin under a Swiss format, and an indeterminate number of rounds will be played until a 'top 8' has formed (this may or may not involve the use of tiebreaker sets to form a top 8). These 8 players will then be seeded into a double elimination bracket.

FINAL NOTES ON RULES
- If a match is ended with a suicide move, the player who initiated the move is declared the winner, regardless of the in game outcome.
- If the round is timed out, the player with the most stocks wins. If both player are equal in stocks, the player with the lower percent wins. In the case that stock and percent is equal a tiebreaker game will be played.
- Tiebreaker game procedure (for either game): 1 stock, 3 minutes, same stages and characters as the game that ended in a tie.
- Any player who initiates a glitch that freezes, crashes or otherwise interrupts gameplay will be subject to forfeiture of the game.
- Any player may request a colour change in the case that the player has colour blindness.
- No coaching during games, only between games.
- No in-person attempts to affect gameplay (obnoxious language, unplugging controllers, blocking player's vision, physically bothering players, etc)
- Any and all other conflicts are to be resolved by SCSC executives

DON'T HOLD UP THE TOURNAMENT
- LET SOMEBODY KNOW if you are leaving the venue when you have yet to be eliminated from an event. Even if you're just stepping out to make a phone call, go to the bathroom, get food, pick up a friend, even if you're forfeiting/leaving because of other obligations, let somebody know (preferably an executive of SCSC) so we know not to DQ people, or to DQ them right away.
- On that note, refrain from stepping out of the venue when you have a set to play unless you absolutely have to. It will help keep the tournament running smoothly.
- Bring your own controllers. We have markers and tape you can use to label your things if you'd like.
- Report any results from tournament sets ASAP.
- Disconnect/turn off any wireless controllers if you are no longer using them. We don't want to interfere with tournament play.


GENERAL CONDUCT
- Don't be rude or obnoxious. We're just here to hang out and enjoy some friendly competition, don't ruin it. This also means don't steal anything, don't bring any illegal substances (or alcohol) into the venue, etc.
- Proper hygiene please; don't smell. Shower, deodorant, clean clothing, brush your teeth, etc. I personally recommend this video.
- Please clean up any garbage you leave behind.

Here's your fair warning for the following

This tournament is unconventional with respect to

- Format of events (read rulesets section)
- Payouts (read prizes section)

Also here's a useful pic if you're not familiar with UTSC, it'll help with directions and I guess food on campus

UTSC Directions To MW.jpg
The campus is at Ellesmere & Military Trail, should be pretty easy to figure out how to get there. I guess I should mention that Military Trail is dumb so it intersects with Ellesmere twice, but the campus is at the more eastern intersection, which is slightly east of Morningside & Ellesmere.

If you're taking 95B, 95E, 38B, or any DRT/GO Buses, you can get off at the bus loop (black arrow). Any other 38s or 95s, get off at Military Trail (pink arrow). Follow the path I've drawn to MW.

All the 95 branches travel all the way between York Mills Stn and UTSC, and it's really frequent, so if you can get to York Mills Stn, York Mills Rd or Ellesmere Rd easily, you can just take the 95 eastbound.

The 38 goes from STC to UTSC, so if getting to STC is convenient for you then that's probably what you should do. The 38B ends at UTSC, the other 38s go to Rouge Hill GO Station I believe, so if for w/e reason you're coming on a GO Train then there's your answer lol.

If getting to Kennedy is convenient for you, you can take the 116 (Morningside) and get off at Morningside & Ellesmere, and from there you can take the 95/38 up to Military Trail/UTSC or you can just walk, it's not a long walk but it's uphill.


There's no free parking at UTSC but I hear that the parking rates on weekends are pretty low ($2 flat fee), and as you can see in the image there's a parking spot right next to the bus loop. If you're taking the 401 to get here, I know there's an eastbound exit onto Morningside, and from there just head south on Morningside and take a left onto Military trail and you'll hit Ellesmere pretty soon. (You'll be coming in from the top left of the pic)

As for food on campus, there's a food court in the student centre (labelled SL) though on weekends, fewer of their restaurants are open (I think just Subway, KFC Express and some asian place). There's another food court thingy called Marketplace in HW with some other cool stuff (generally less fast-food-esque and a bit more expensive but nothing crazy). There's also a Timmies in AC, a Timmies Express in HW (though I doubt it's open on weekends) and a Starbucks Express between HW and SW.

The vending machines around campus are decent too, some of them have some more filling stuff like beef patties and sandwiches.
