It's Twilight of Smash 2! Can you stop nox's mad hacking, penii-flexing skillz? Can you stop Dice from challenging everyone on Smashboards to an MM? Can you stop the EC smash community from posting in threads that have long since outlived their purpose? NO, you can't!
But, you can come to ToS2 instead!
I had a lot of compliments for ToS1, most people seemed pretty happy with it. I'm going to do my best to address some of the complaints (people not putting a high enough priority on tournament matches, having to wait around for people to show up for their matches). I'll have a more set schedule for which events will run once a few things have been decided, so read on!
==================================================
Date: Saturday, November 4, 2006
Location:
Southminster United Church
15 Aylmer Avenue
Ottawa, ON
The tournament itself will be held in a room on the second floor of the church (exact room number to be posted later).
To get inside to where the tourney is held, use the BACK entrance (the one in the parking lot). We only have a key for the back door, as other people will be using the upper part of the church. If you go to the front door, either no one will answer the door, or at best they won't know what 'Smash Brothers' tournament you're talking about. Make sure you use the correct door!
Another issue is that the doors lock automatically. The room where the tournament will be is far away from the door, so if you want to go out and get food etc. someone has to wait by the door and let you back in. Either ask one of your friends, or ask myself or other tournament staff.
Directions:
Driving: The church is about a 10-15 minute drive from the CC where I had my smashfests before. I suggest taking Bronson until you reach Sunnyside, turn onto Sunnyside, then go up one of the sidestreets to Aylmer Ave. I do not recommend taking Bank Street, as you will have to deal with a lot more traffic and traffic lights.
Here's the Google maps link:

Parking: We can use the church parking lot, but do not park in the organist's parking spot as s/he will be there on Saturday at some point. Don't park in any other reserved spaces, either.
Bus: I haven't personally taken the bus there, but here's what I've got by checking the OC Transpo travel planner:
From the south:
Take the 1 Ottawa-Rockcliffe and get off at the Bank + Aylmer stop. You can get on the 1 from
Billings Bridge or South Keys.
From the north:
Take the 7 Carleton and get off at the Bank + Aylmer stop. You can get the 7 from Rideau or St. Laurent.
If these directions are wrong it's octranspo.com's fault
Someone who lives in the Glebe area might be able to give better directions than what I've got here.Time: 12:30-9pm, come at 12:00 if you are bringing TVs/Cubes/power cables. Do NOT come before 12:00, the doors will be locked! If I'm able to open the room any earlier than noon, I'll post to let everyone know.
Equipment: To ensure the tournament finishes on time, please bring TVs, Gamecubes, and power cabling such as extension cords and power cords. The more setups we have, the faster things will go. Please post if you can bring any of these things.
Tournament rules:
General:
- Bring your own controller, or ensure someone is bringing one for you. We cannot guarantee having extra controllers available.
- Good behaviour is expected; we don't want to get kicked out of the church. In particular, do not damage any church or tournament participant's belongings, and do not make a lot of noise (there will be people other than us using the church during tournament hours, we don't want to get reported). If tournament staff deems that you are causing trouble in this fashion, you will be kicked out of the tournament without refund.
- Controllers: see MLG rules (no mods aside from cosmetic changes, no programmed buttons)
- No pausing during a match unless there is a good reason. If you pause repeatedly for no good reason, you may forfeit that match at the discretion of tournament staff.
- No infinite stall/freeze glitches (ie: Peach's Wallbombing, Jigglypuff's rising pound, Ice Climber freeze glitch, etc). If you use these in a match, you forfeit that match. If one of these tactics is used on you for the purpose of stalling the match, pause the game and call for tournament staff.
- Once a match has been announced, it must be started within 5 minutes. If one or more of the participants does not show up within the 5 minutes, they forfeit the match. This applies to both singles and doubles.
- Prizes: Singles and Doubles: 65/25/10 split for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd.
The room will cost money this time, so the total pot amount will be entry fees minus the room rental cost ($100).
1v1:
- $15 entry
- Format: Pools, top 8 advance to a double elimination bracket. Matches are best 2/3, except for Winners' and Losers' bracket finals, which will be best 3/5.
- MLG rules
- MLG random stages, minus Poke Floats and Rainbow Cruise
2v2:
- $20 entry per team ($10/person)
- Format: Double Elimination. Matches are best 2/3, except for Winners' and Losers' bracket finals, which will be best 3/5.
- MLG rules

==================================================
ToS2 event vote:
Most tournaments in the past just have singles/doubles/crews, but lately there has been a lot of interest in other types of events, like low tier, regional crew battles, random crew battles, etc. Also, I'm interested to see if people want to try round-robin pools (FC6-style) for Singles instead of a normal double-elimination. Obviously we won't have time to do ALL of these, so I'm going to have some votes to help decide which events should be run at ToS2.
If we do round-robin pools, we won't have as much time for other events. I think if we do pools, we could do singles and one other event (doubles/crews/regionals/low tier/etc). If we don't do pools, we can have the usual 3 events (singles/two others).
So, the first vote will be for singles: pools vs. double elimination. The option with the most votes wins, and singles will be run in that format. The second vote will be for which events to run. How this will work will depend on how the first vote turns out!
Voting is now complete. Thank you to everyone who voted!

IMPORTANT: Make sure you read this part if you skimmed my post!
- Use the back entrance to get in (the one in the parking lot), NOT the front door!
- Tell someone before going outside so we can let you back in the church.
- Bring TVs, Gamecubes, and power bars/extensions!
