Set Procedure ==============================================
Pick characters.
Players may elect to do a double blind pick.
Stage Striking: (1-2-1)
Players engage in a round of RPS. Winner of the RPS may choose who strikes the first stage. The other person then strikes the next two stages. The first person to strike then strikes the last one, effectively choosing the first stage they play on.

Stage Bans: During the stage ban phase, the player who won the previous game may ban 2 stages from either the Starter or Counter-pick lists.
Loser selects the stage for the next game.
Note: In best of 5 sets, players must ban after each victory

2nd/3rd match procedure:
1: Winner bans one stage
2: Loser of the previous match chooses a stage to play the next match on
3: The winner of the previous match may elect to change their character
4. The loser of the previous match chooses their character, and starts the match.

Additional Rules ============================================
Maximum time allowed between games is 60 seconds. Violating players will be issued a loss.
Team Colors: Player character colors must match their team color when possible, to avoid confusion (ex: Luigi on the green team must use the green costume).
All controllers are acceptable for this event. If a gamepad is available at the setup in question, you are allowed to use it. However, do not ask us to provide a gamepad for you.

Double Suicide Rule: If the game ends in a double suicide resulting from a suicide move (Kirby's inhale, Ganon's choke, etc) then the result will be decided by the results screen.

If the game goes to sudden death, then the players will quit and play another game 1 stock 3 minutes in order to decide the of that match

Setup Cards =============================================

We will be assigning stations to each set that is played in tournament, and with each set we will be distributing a card with the number of the station written on it. Please display this card prominently on the table in front of the setup. When the set ends, the player that is victorious will need to come back to the TO desk to report the result. If you are playing a set without a card in front of you, it will be assumed that it is friendlies.

This will help us to be more efficient, get tournament completed quicker, and eventually, we'll be able to open up more setups for friendlies when we near the end.

FAQ =====================================================
1) I don’t think I'm good enough. Should I still participate?
We encourage everyone to participate, regardless of skill level. You'll only get better by practicing! If space allows, we’ll have some consoles available for friendly matches.

2) If I'm participating in the tournament, do I also need to pay the venue fee?
Yes, you do. The tournament fee goes to the pool, while the venue fee goes to paying the owner of the event space.

3) I don't live in the New York City area. What can I do?
You can share this event!

4) How do I get there/what trains pass near there?
The F train will leave you 5 minutes walking distance from the east Broadway stop

The B/D at the grand st stop is about a 7 minute walk

The A/C/N/Q/6 trains will also leave you about 15 minutes from the venue, but easily walk-able

5) What is in the area?
There is plenty of food in the area. If you enjoy Asian food, you can get Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese very easily. Little Italy is also just a few blocks away. There are also multiple dollar dumpling joints, Chinese bakeries, and bubble tea available within a 3 block radius.

6) I drive, what's the parking like?
There is plenty of paid street parking available at about 3.50 an hour. Regulations end at 7PM, so if you are here for the weekly I would recommend letting us know you're here via facebook or twitter and parking shortly before the event begins. There is also free parking several blocks away from the venue.

7) I can't find the venue help!
Xenozero is at 62 orchard street is above a men's fine clothing store. Ring the black doorbell next to the door to the right of the clothing store and someone will come let you into the store.

Ultimate has been a great time at xeno, with our past events having players like light, mr. E, amongst others coming out to play. Xeno142 had 145 attendees! We're very much hoping to see some new faces, and if you can't make Wednesdays, we have a xenosaga this weekend, with more info at https://smash.gg/xenosaga

We hope to see you soon!

Hey, just want to make sure for Xenosaga that if we chose the "Pay at the Door" option at registration, we only have to pay the $10 venue fee, correct?

Also if I only registered for Singles do I still need to be there at 1pm? Or can I come at 4 when singles start

Hi wumbo,

Yes, you won't be charged emergency registration fee as long as you pre-reg through smash.gg/xenosaga, regardless of payment method.

As for singles, you only need to be around to check in before seeding begins, which is usually around 4pm. If you are going to be late, you can @ or DM houseof3000 on Twitter.

We hope to see you soon!

Hi! I was at the tournament yesterday with a friend. Unfortunately, I misplaced a GameCube controller, it's a standard black version . It was last placed under one of the chairs where the monitors and switches were setup. If you find or have found it, please leave it at the venue somewhere safe and I will come pick it up next week. Please keep it safe! I would appreciate so much!
