Date/Times
The next tournament will be taking place on Saturday, February 21st! I know there's not going to be one in January but something came up at the store and we can't do much about it =( Come back because we are finally once again an all Wii fighting game tournament!!
Registration @ 12 pm until 1 pm. If you are bringing a set up I would like you to be here sometime around 12 noon. I will register people in two waves. First between 12 pm and 1 pm (and before each tournament) and again at 5 pm for the later tournaments. Thanks!
Super Smash Brothers Brawl Doubles: 1 pm!
Brawl Singles: 5 pm!
These are approximate times.

The map included above shows where to find free parking as well as food places directly surrounding Get Your Game On. If you cannot find free parking, there are meters outside the store which are $0.50 an hour for 10 total hours. However, after 6 pm it is free so you can just load the meter until 6 pm.
Price:
*Venue fee: $5
Super Smash Brothers Brawl Doubles: $20 per team
Super Smash Brothers Brawl Singles: $10 per person
Payout is standard 60%/30%/10% for all events. Percentages may change based on turnout.
*venue fee will be waived when you bring a WHOLE set up (wii w/ game + a TV). Venue fee may also include some food and drinks. Details TBA. Only a limited number of set ups will be allowed. Please let me know if you are bringing one.
The $5 venue fee can be paid via trade ins. Aka, old games/systems/whatever, can be traded in to the store as opposed to paying a venue fee. I would call the store first to see if they have too many of something (and therefore wouldn't take it in) and their number is available on their website (above). So, take advantage of this offer!
Venue Rules:
1. Respect the Venue- Please pick up your trash and try not to throw controllers, kick chairs, or anything that may do damage to the venue. Anything that is broken or any trash that is left is then my responsibility and I will glare at you for a long time *glare*. Aka, I'll take money out of the pot to fix it and EVERYONE will kill you.
2. ABSOLUTELY NO DRUGS OR ALCOHOL ALLOWED INSIDE OR ON THE PREMISES. IF IT IS FOUND YOU WILL BE KICKED OUT, NO EXCEPTIONS. This is a game store which caters to all ages, be respectful and do not make a fool out of yourself.
3. Smoking cigarettes is allowed right outside the building. Just try not to crowd the door so customers can get inside.
4. The tournament will be held in the basement (2 rooms!) which will be our space. The upstairs is a game store so please go up stairs to pick up any new games or drinks/snacks if you wish. In general though, be respectful of the other customers.
5. HAVE FUN! This is something really cool for Ann Arbor and for fans of these games all over. Let's keep it up so we can keep running them every month!
6. I will
NOT TOLERATE unsportsmanlike conduct. There will be no insulting, coaching, or verbal abuse of any kind during tournament matches. Coaching is allowed between matches only. If I catch you doing any of the above, you will get a warning. Doing it again will result in you being kicked out.
7. There are no refunds on the venue fee. If you have to leave early and cannot enter a tournament that you paid for, I can give you a refund ONLY if you have not played a single match in the tournament. If you have played at all, I will not give you a refund.
8. If I am busy (ESPECIALLY if I am in a match) wait until I am done to talk to me.
9. Anything you bring is YOUR responsibility. If anything is lost or broken myself, nor the venue take any responsibility for it. Keep an eye on your stuff and make sure you take care of other people's TVs, systems, etc.
Therefore, this list basically says: Be respectful to those around you and have fun...
...or I'll KILL YOU (jks =P).
Out of State Housing:
If you would like to come to this from out of state, there may be a place for you to stay in the Ann Arbor area. Post in the thread and someone might be able to help you!
Game Rules:
ALL EVENTS ARE DOUBLE ELIMINATION. Nearly everything else is different.
Super Smash Brothers Brawl:
This tournament follows the basic outline of the rules set by the SBR. Details of the rules can be found
here.
However, the stage list will be rather different. Here is the stage list for this tournament:
Starters:
Battlefield
Final Destination
Smashville
Yoshi's Island
Poke'mon Stadium 1
They will be picked 1 - 2 - 1 and who chooses first will be decided by RPS.
Counter Picks:
Castle Siege
Delfino Plaza
Halberd
Lylat Cruise
Brinstar
Norfair
Jungle Japes
Frigate Orpheon
Pictochat
Rainbow Cruise
Pokemon Stadium 2
You may ban one stage from either list after the striking process is over.
Each station will have a list of stages that you may select to avoid confusion. Also, if you and your opponent(s) agree, you may play any stage you want, banned or not. If you have any questions, please let me know before the tournament or before your match. If the match is already in progress you are stuck.
If you use any controller styles that use the wiimote you will be responsible for removing the batteries inbetween your matches. Failure to do so can result in a DQ.
In addition to the SBR rules, King Dedede's standing infinite and walking/nudging chaingrabs will be banned. Any chain grab done with King Dedede MUST include a dash between each grab. Standing infinites include: the no-wall infinites on Samus, Mario, Luigi, and Donkey Kong; the ledge infinite on King Dedede, Bowser, Wolf, etc; the walking nudging chaingrab on Wario, Ganondorf, Wolf, Bowser, etc. Any chain grabs done in place on moving platforms or against a wall are legal, as these are only temporary stage-specific occurrences and no legal stages have permanent walls.
The previous rule does not prohibit any form of grab release set ups, combos, infinites, etc.
but i got a SF4 tourney the same day so once again another brawl tourney missed
