~ Get On My Level 1 Brawl Tournament Videos: http://www.youtube.com/user/GOMLgaming ~

Intro: Hey everyone, as I promised I am hosting a Brawl Tournament..theres 2 rooms..ones a chillin room with couches to relax and what not so its pretty sick. I am hoping for this to be the biggest tournament up to date in Ontario so free your schedules and make your ***** down to this event hehe. If you all dont know me already im a brawl player..I would like a clean, drug-free and alcohol free (I have to) during the tournament. If you have any questions..just email me at Bug@live.ca

Place: This is inside an apartment building so please try not to go crazy loud unless someone does something sick in a game lol. Here is the address:

1022 Greaves ave.
Mississauga, ON
Nearest intersection which is very close is Cawthra and Lakeshore.
You will see that its the only apartment building on the street/corner.


Contact: You can contact me by calling (905) 891-7591 or you can email me at Bug@live.ca or my cell 905 781 7591

How do I get there? Just mapquest it..It clear on the address and everything. Here are bus routes from Square one. Take the 19 down all the way to the go station in port credit and then wait for the 23. Take the 23 and get off Lakeshore and Cawthra, then just down lakeshore..not towards the way you just came from but forward..and you should see that the second street on the left is Greaves ave. Youll see a building, before your make it to greaves you should see a door open. PARKING IS AVAILABLE ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE BUILDING OR JUST PARK ON THE STREET!

FOOD: I believe there is food allowed in the venue but please dont make a mess and clean up after yourselves. Around the corner (2-4 minute walk) there is a Dairy Cream, Subway, Pizza Pizza, Dominos Pizza and if you want to walk an extra minute there is McDonalds.

Venue Fee ($150) will be taken from the pot
Singles: $15.00
Doubles: $10.00 per team
YES, I WILL HAVE 5 DOLLAR BILLS SO DONT STRESS!

SINGLES PRIZE LAYOUT

65% goes to first place
25% goes to second place
10% goes to third place

DOUBLES PRIZE LAYOUT

70% goes to first place
25% goes to second place
5% goes to third place

Time: I will be yelling out names and assigning players/teams to a specific TV/system to play on. You have 3 minutes to come check in at the table to find out which setup your playing at. If you are not there before 3 minutes runs out then you will be disqualified, I cant be messing around with the time if we want things to get done fast.

Doors open at 9am
9am - 9:30am * This time will be used for setups *
9:30am - 10:30am * This time will be used for friendlies *
10:30am - 11:30am * This will be registration for Brawl Singles and Doubles, I am not waiting a minute after 11:45am so please dont be late *
11:30am - 12:00pm * Making pools or brackets
Then I will run singles first and then doubles.


*NOTE* Venue MUST close at 10pm EST and no later so we need to make this run smoothly.

Rules: If you dont follow them, you will not be welcome in future tourneys.

1. Keep it clean! I should not have to stress over people not wanting to take 4 seconds to throw out their garbage. I really would not like to have to clean up after everyone else's garbage and messes when I am the one organizing all this. There will be a big garbage bag where everyone can throw their garbage out in the venue.

2. Be Friendly! This is important. If you lose so be it, accept defeat and move on (Unless your GI and then I can understand) If you're being a sore loser and persist with it I will ask you to keep it to yourself or you will have to leave. The main point of this is for fun.

3. Smoking & Alcohol! If you need to smoke a cigarette feel free to step out the side of the building for a cigarette. Other things must be taken elsewhere away from the buidling but I don't mind if your in the venue afterwards. Alcohol or any drug is not allowed in the building AT ALL. If you smell like alcohol or any drug or if you start getting mad cause your drunk then you will be kicked out..just keep it cool.

4. Personal Belongings! Bring your own things at your own risk, I am hoping everyone there is respectful and will not take anything. If you lose anything, come talk to me and we will find the crook and beat his *** down. Keep your controller with you at all times.

5. TVs! Dont hog up friendly TVs, give everyone a chance to have a casual. Tournament matches have priority over MMs and Casuals. MMs have priority over Casuals.

Tournament Rules and Stage Bans:

This may change if you can convince me why it should or shouldnt be there. *NOTE* Dont come to the tournament and expect to change things (MDK lol) ..just give me your input on this thread and ill put it into consideration.

-Matches are 3 stocks with 7 minute time limit.

-All Sets will be best of 3. Finals of the winners bracket, losers bracket and the grand championship will be best of 5.

-There will be pools so we can have proper seeds towards the brackets. This will have to be done fast cause I dont want to waste half the tournament doing pools.

-First match the two players will tell a 3rd person which characters they are choosing. The stage will then be either be mutually agreed on or randomly chosen from the neutral stages.

-Loser of the next round then chooses the stage while the winner chooses their character followed by the loser choosing theirs.

-You cannot choose the same stage more than once in your set of 3. Unless the stage you had liked to pick was chosen on random.

-Pausing is only allowed for an emergency, anything out of reason(breaking combo's, time to think or shield, etc) will forfit your stock.


MetaKnight: Stalling Infinite Dimensional Cape

Stalling with this technique is by no means allowed at all..if it is being consecutively used at a time then you will forfeit that round right away without no warning. You can use this move to approach or dodge something but if there is any sign of it being used to waste time then you will forfeit the round.

Infinite/Excessive Stalling

Infinite and excessive stalling are both banned. You are considered to be stalling infinitely when you are using a technique that prevents the other player from making contact with you (spamming projectiles is allowed but constant flying in the sky and under the stage is not allowed). Excessive stalling is when you use a technique to stall a match by remaining untouchable for a significant amount of time. Examples include using Fox's shine in great excess while recovering on the corner of the map so the opponent cannot reach you for a large period of time. This will result in a forfeit of your stock.

Come on guys..just show some class when you play, dont be an a$$face.

If I'm missing anything let me know.

YYYOOOOOO, going to this! Yo, if you need help I'll help out but as for a TV set-up, you know it is impossible for me unless someone is to pick me up.

And when I lose at this tournament I'll make sure you are the punching bag! lololol.

Alright, put me down for attending.

My girlfriend died of laughter when she saw what you wrote, since she sees it all the time when I lose.

I'll try man, maybe Ambrose will come to this and I'll ask him to drive me. And congrats on setting this up, can't believe that Cawthra place was actuallly the key. I'm kinda screwed on mine but I'm still looking so it'll happen.

And I guess our US trip will have to be postponed for August cause I'm trying to make my tourney in July as well.

This tournament will own! If all goes well this will be very very organized seeing that we do not have to be at each others' throat for a TV to play on for our tournament match. Therefore people will play when told.

And yes Rainbow Cruise should be in, I also do not see it that bad to have Norfair. All in all, it is Bug's decision, he is the host.

And Bug, I may or may not bring others depending on how much of a mission it'll be, so far count my girlfriend in, her name is Dud. I'll talk to the others to come to this as well. We gotta make it as huge as possible.

Wait... what? You're putting Green Hill Zone and Jungle Japes as CP instead of Brinstar and Rainbow Cruise?

and Pirate ship, should DEFINITELY be banned.



And this:
Infinite/Excessive Stalling (from wifiwars)

Infinite and excessive stalling are both banned. You are considered to be stalling infinitely when you are using a technique that prevents the other player from reaching you indefinitely. Excessive stalling is when you use a technique to stall a match by remaining untouchable for a significant amount of time. Examples include using Fox's shine in great excess while recovering in an unreachable location, using Pit's up B to move back and forth underneath a stage, and more. This will result in a forfeit of your stock. End of Story.
So, what happens if I go Jungle Japes and just keep running away, or what if I just run away on any stage and camp the other person with projectiles. Does that count as a stalling tactic?

And come on... Fox's Shine in the air? He's gonna have to come down sooner or later and if he doesn't come back to the stage then that's his stock anyway. It's a recovery tactic not a stalling tactic.

And Pit's Up-B is VERY easily gimpable especially if he's doing something predictable like going back and forth from edge to edge with it.

And these are rules from Wi-Fi wars which are for online battles not offline.

Okay guys, I added stuff to the first post, I hope I answered all your questions..I will test brinstar and jungle japes out some more today to see where it deserves to be.

updates:

Green Hill Zone is now banned
Rainbow Cruise is now a counterpick
Brinstar and Jungle Japes are getting more thought put into them so right now they are unknown.
Prize layout as of now is 60/30/10 but it may change
I changed the infinite stalling / excessive stalling piece
I added to the tournament rules that there will be pools.
Lets run things smoothly as we have until 10pm EST.
I added where you can buy food.

When you guys post, it would be awesome if you can tell me if your coming or not so I can add you to the list, and if you can bring setups cause we really need setups.

Im also banning luigi's mansion for GK....lol jp

@Nate/KingAce.. Help would be awesome guys, I will probably really need it..especially setting everything up in the morning..but I wonder if you guys can make it that early 0_0

@Erix.. Thanks for your input, I changed the stalling rule up a bit and pirate ship is AWESOME!!!

right behind you o_o
k so list me down for 3 tv's and 1 wii+brawl, and i wouldnt mind helping out with things in this. believe, me if you running a tournament that is potentially this big. you need all the help you can get. add a list for staff members =D

-Pausing is only allowed if for a phone call or emergency, anything out of reason(breaking combo's, time to think or shield, etc) will forfit your stock
I honestly think you should limit it to emergencies only, honestly phone calls always seem to come at the worst time. and besides its not hard for ppl to put thier phone on silent and then pretend to have an incoming call, if they need to answer a call they could always do it after the match.

I added to the tournament rules that there will be pools.
Lets run things smoothly as we have until 10pm EST.
ok so leme get this straight, we're doing pools for both singles and doubles, for brawl.

lets make one thing clear, if your intention is to not make pools last out for half of the day, then you're sadly mistaken. i mean MELEE pools alone take forever, and matches finnish as quickly as 2-3 minutes.

If the numbers are big enough it would make sense to do pools, but since we're working with only 10 hours (yes ONLY) and minus another hour for food runs so we're practically limited to 9 hours. i dont think we'll be able to do both pools and bracketing on both events. Hell even if you knock out pools on doubles, singles alone will take forever.

Honestly and truly depending on the number of people that come to this I would reconsider on pools

I think pools can work out, it was done at Niko's, and we could do it just for singles since not as many people join for doubles. It will take strict timing and control but it can be done.

And **** I'd try to help out but 9am!!! ****...kinda early for me. I'll consider though Bug, I'll post some time later if I can help.

It's absolutely possible, but it all rests on setups: players ratio. The more TVs to this ****, (with brawl setups) the better.

Since this is in Mississauga, I think I might just come. Hope the weekend is free.
