Rules:
New Wobbles Compromise:
Wobbling is legal but may not be used to take any more than one stock, regardless of percent. Wobbling is only said to occur once the grab becomes unbreakable. In the event the wobbler mistimes the technique or fails to KO the opponent after the grab is otherwise unbreakable, the player is still charged with their one wobble.
The Mage's DQ rule:
After a match has been called, if a player is two minutes late he will receive a warning. At 4 minutes late, he will be given a loss for the first game of the set. After six minutes, he will be given a loss of the entire set.
All other rules:
Will follow the rule set listed for Pound V.

Airport Connections
Lindbergh Field (SAN) is San Diego's primary airport. UCSD can be reached from Lindbergh Field by taxi, San Diego City Transit, or Airport Shuttle.
San Diego City Transit
If traveling by San Diego City Transit from the airport take bus route #992. Ask to purchase a one day bus pass ($5.00) as there are no longer free transfers. Route #992 travels from the airport and proceeds to downtown San Diego, where you can transfer on Broadway, to the #30 which goes directly to UCSD.
Pick-Up
San Diego is the home of tons of generous smashers, so if you can give us a heads up we can definitely make a trip or two down to the airport to help out any out of state competitors.
Housing:
Smasher Housing
There will likely be UCSD smashers that will be more than happy to house you. All you have to do is ask. Post in either this thread, the San Diego triweekly thread, or send one of our staff a PM and we'll try and get you situated.
Hotels
If you'd rather stay at a hotel there's a Sheraton and Hyatt right across from the venue as well as UCSD shuttles that go to campus every 15 minutes. I'll work on getting deals with the hotels and update accordingly.
