Thank you. I won't be able to stream. This is all online. Anyone can enter and anyone can stream and post the link here or on the Facebook event page.2 stock, 5 minute timer, and no custom moves. FINALLY, SOMEONE'S HAS IT RIGHT. Stream?
Sunday is just the easiest day for me and many players. Everyone's usually home and most people aren't working that day.Sunday...why is it always Sunday? I have a job and have to go to work every single Sunday. Yet almost every event worth signing up for seems to happen on a Sunday.
After winning the local launch tourney, and over 60% of online matches, it would be nice to test my skills in another real tourney. One that ISN'T running while I'm at work.
Thanks but keep in touch on Facebook. That would be easier for updates on where to go when the tournament starts to find your opponent.i signed up at challonge.com and facebook, but just in case my FC:4098-4880-2303
Yes just sign up on challonge and register on smash4friends to chat with everyone.I'm not on Facebook, can I still enter?
There are only three stages. Battlefield, yoshi's island, and final destination. Good luck to both of you.I joined here and on Facebook as Clayton Summers. FC:2638-0679-1408
Perhaps I missed it mentioned somewhere, but what stages are counter picks? This will be my first tournament ever.
Right when it begins you play your match and keep playing as the bracket gets updated.So what time do you do your matches on Sunday?
You each ban a stage and the one remaining is the stage you play on.What is meant by "striking a stage?"
A button will appear at 5 pm one hour before the tournament starts on Challonge. Just click that and you're all set.how do i check in on challonge (new to the web site) can you only do it after the tourney starts?
6 PM CST is the start of the tournament. 5 PM is when you can start to check in.Ok, I'm confused. I just checked the challonge, and it says it starts at 7pm EDT. But you say it starts 6pm, then 5pm. What time is it, and what time zone?
That happened last tournament. I banned the player that lied. I asked for the conversation on Smash4Friends as proof. It showed the player that lost and lied choosing the stage for the second match which proved that he was lying about winning 2-0.What happens if one person lies about the results of the match?
But who chooses first/gets last pick?You each ban a stage and the one remaining is the stage you play on.
It's all in the rules above. Each player strikes one stage. Then loser chooses.But who chooses first/gets last pick?
I want to make sure I have a fair fight and stage choice is very important in Smash.
Well it depends on the player. Some players don't care about the order of striking. But if you do, discuss that with your opponent and you can use whatever method you want to determine who strikes first. You could play a one stock match on an agreed upon stage and winner chooses whether to strike first or second. Or you could both just agree on a stage to play on instead of striking altogether. It is difficult to decide who goes first but with 100+ people in each tournament so far, I have not heard of that being an issue from a single player.I think he means who strikes first.
Let's say I really don't like Battlefield. Like I hate battlefield with a burning passion. If I strike first, then I'm uncertain where I go. But if I strike second and the opponent strikes Battlefield by chance, then I get to choose where, which is a different and potentially game-changing scenario. This is generally resolved in live tournaments by rock-paper-scissors, but that's a bit more difficult here.
I'll clarify that but usually the opponent will clear that up with any new player. It's rare to see two new players matched up who both don't know or understand the rules.Even though I can assume that to be the case (been competing back in the golden days of Melee) Definition is still needed for those attending who are new.
But my point was more about how there can be a "loser" declared even if given the assumption, considering I asked about the FIRST round. Without definition I'll just say I am the "loser" and get stage pick (kind of a misnomer considering I'm more of a winner at that point winning the choice in Stage, lulz).
Are you getting an error message or what's exactly happening when you try to register?I really want to join the tourney but I can't seem to register to smash 4 friends
i am "TheStrifer"

Good luck and thanks for joiningWell, I hope this'll be fun. My first real tourney so I know it's going to be a blast.
I hope I can remember all that and my opponent doesn't ask for me to show him in the rules if it comes down to that.Well it depends on the player. Some players don't care about the order of striking. But if you do, discuss that with your opponent and you can use whatever method you want to determine who strikes first. You could play a one stock match on an agreed upon stage and winner chooses whether to strike first or second. Or you could both just agree on a stage to play on instead of striking altogether.
