The Details
Address:12603 Allard St
Santa Fe Springs, CA 90670
Dates:
Friday July 20th - Sunday, July 22nd, 2007 (the weekend between FC and Evo west)
Times:
4:00 PM, 7/20/07: Sign-ups, begin tournament
Events to run through 12:00 AM Sunday
Spectator's fee:
$50.00. Covers to spectate for all events, as well as food and housing (see below)
Entry fee:
$75.00. Covers entry fees for all events, as well as food and housing (see below)
Everything is paid at the door. If you fail to Register and come to the tournament, spectators will be forced to pay $60 and people who are participating in the tournament will be forced to pay $100
Reason why is because we need to know an estimation on how many people plan on going and also to print out the brackets, do pools, prepare for how much food we need, etc etc. It is a hassle to do so, so please save us and you the trouble and register.
Housing: Everyone who needs it is guaranteed housing! This time people can stay at the venue, so housing is guaranteed and plentiful
Your entry fee will pay for two meals a day (lunch and dinner). The meals are still being planned, but there will be no need to rush out to fast food joints in between matches; we'll bring the food to you!
Of coures, transportation is also on us! These are the airports we will be driving to and from:
* Los Angeles International (LAX)
* Long Beach Municipal (LGB)
* John Wayne (SNA)
Rules
0C2 will feature four main Smash tournaments:
Day 1 (Friday) - Crew battles, International Crews
Day2 (Saturday) - Finish International Crews, Doubles tournament
Day3 (Sunday) - Singles tournament
Your entry fee covers admission into all four events. Sorry, but declining entrance into any of the events will not prompt any refund.
Common rules
* Brackets
o Singles: players will be randomly assigned into 32 pools. Each player will play round-robin games against all other players in his/her pool. The four players with the best record in each pool will advance to a 128-man double-elimination bracket.
o Doubles: teams will be randomly assigned into 32 pools. Each team will play round-robin sets against all other teams in the pool. The top two teams from each pool will advance to a 64-team double-elimination bracket.
o Crews: rules TBD.
* Stages
o Random stages: Final Destination, Pokemon Stadium, Dreamland 64.
o Counterpick stages: Fountain of Dreams, Yoshi's Story, Battlefield.
o All other stages are banned. This is a compromise with the Japanese, who only play Final Destination and Dreamland 64.
o You will not be able to ban any stages.
* Controller ports
o Any disagreements over controller port assignments will be settled by a coin toss.
o Teams must use adjacent port numbers (one team on ports 1/2, the other on 3/4).
* All sets (both in pools and brackets) will be best of 3, with finals best of 5.
* Advanced slob picks will be in effect.
* Players may call a double-blind pick for the first game of a set.
A full rule set for all events will be posted at least two weeks prior to the tournament, but expect the rest of the rules to be similar to MLG standard rules. (no IC freeze glitch, peach wallbomb stall, etc. etc.)
Awards - we don't know yet, but it'll be more than last year for sure (>1200)
