Smash Master
Seeing as Francis hasn't updated the old thread in a LONG TIME, and I'm one of the main tournament hosts along with Mat (Hillary on SWF), I thought it would be a good idea to make a new one where I can edit the info. Well, here's the copied and pasted version of the old first post, so there may be some outdated info, but either way, here we go.
Finally Vancouver Island has a smash scene thanks to the organization of the UVIC Smash Club
We're offering bi-weekly tournaments to ANYONE who wishes to enter! Bring your friends, bring your johns, and byoc!
So let's get this all straight, kay?
Firstly, what are UVIC Bi-Weeklies?
Basically they're smash brothers brawl and melee tournaments for Vancouver Islanders (or anyone who feels like traveling to the events!). They happen every 2 weeks, usually on Saturdays at uvic. The information for these tourneys can be found on this site! It will be updated whenever something changes. Tell your friends about them!
What events are there and how much are they?
At the moment UVIC Bi-weekly tourneys will feature Smash Melee singles for $10 per person, Smash Melee doubles for $10 per team, Smash Brawl singles for $10 per person, and Smash Brawl Doubles for $10 per team! In the future we may have events such as smash 64 singles/faa, smash melee falcon only, smash brawl items FFA etc etc etc.
When/where is the next tournament?
[EDITED BY BLUE YOSHI:]Go to post #2 of this thread. That's where I'm putting the date on when the tournament will take place, and maybe an events schedule.[END EDIT BY BLUE YOSHI]
The room is A125 of the Engineering and Computer Science Building (ESC) at UVIC in the ring road.. Here's a map. http://www.uvic.ca/buildings/ecs.html

RULES
First of all, the events are located at a university, so we expect good behavior from everyone. There should be no loitering near any classrooms other than the room where the tourney is in. You're still welcome to leave the tourney room to go out and eat though, since there are takeout restaurants nearby after all. No food/drink is permitted in the tourney room, please eat outside it. UVIC students are having exams around this time so please keep all noise inside the tourney room (yes, you can be noisy INSIDE the room, it's pretty sound proof), not outside it. Please be respectful of all your fellow players and anyone else who happens to be nearby. We won't hesitate to kick you out if you do anything too inappropriate. Your tournament hosts are Francis aka Liverymen and Mat aka Hillary; look for them if you need help with anything.
