Conduct Rules (stolen from Rule 6):

1. BYOC (Bring your own controller): Players are expected to bring their own controller and be prepared for every tournament set.
2. Controller mods of ANY kind (short-hop mod, L-trigger mod, etc), except for cosmetic changes (paint job, different colored plastic), are banned. If you are caught using a banned controller you will be disqualified from the tournament with no refund.
3. Turbo or programmed buttons of any kind are banned. You may use third party controllers or pads that have these features, but if you are suspected of using the banned features you will not be allowed to use that controller any longer. Failure to comply can also result in disqualification.
4. You are responsible for your own controller and name tag and equipment. Any malfunctions or errors that occur are your responsibility, so bring an extra controller if possible, keep an eye on your equipment and always check to make sure you’re using the correct settings BEFORE a match is played. Both parties need to agree if a match is to be restarted because of these problems.
5. Intentional forfeiting, match fixing, splitting, and any other forms of bracket manipulation are not allowed and punishable by the TO.
6. No substitutions are allowed for singles or doubles.
7. Coaching is allowed only between games, not during. Failure to adhere to this will lead to punishment at the TO’s discretion, which could include the removal from the venue.
8. 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 first match. 5 more minutes results in a loss of the set. For doubles, both players on a team need to be present in order to play.
9. The tournament organizer has the right to save/record any tournament match if possible and has the right to upload said match.
10. Disrupting your opponent physically or intending to disrupt their play (through something such as screaming in a player’s ear) will result in a warning. Repeated action will result in disqualification from the tournament and possibly ejection from the venue. Observers who physically disrupt players are to be dealt with as the Tournament Organiser sees fit. Disqualification is recommended if possible, and ejection from the venue is also a punishment.
11. Although a rarity in melee (regarding textures and other game hacks):

• 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 are not allowed to use any game altering hacks, such as model hacks. If someone is caught setting up a system they brought with such hacks enabled can face punishment at the TO’s discretion.

SETUPS ARE APPRECIATED.
PM SETUPS ARE NEEDED.

If you are reasonably close to this route send me a private message and I may be able to give you a ride.

 

[BF^]

Anyone have any suggestions for Smash 4 rulesets? Stages? Stocks? Time? Custom moves?

 

[ImThatGuy]

Really interested in going, only thing that Im questioning is when will people be informed of the amount of setups? Would love to enter an actual PM tournament and I dont want to drive all the way there just to find out that its friendlies only

 

[spid3y916]

How many PM setup is needed to be considered a full tournament? Do we need to tell you prior to the tournament if we are bring a setup? Will TV be provided or do we need to bring our own? And finally are modded things outside of characters (such as music, CSP, ect.) also banned?

We ideally want around 5 PM Setups for a tournament but we think we can at least settle for 3 Setups and modded wii are okay. For PM we won't provided the setups so both TVs and games are on the players
A message would be helpful if you are bringing a setup

 

[zapantydropper]

Any setups for PM yet? I'd be willing to bring one
