can't come to the 25th also, I'm OoS (out of shield).
....can you do worse? I don't think so.
Anyway luke your rules are getting complicated. Now, we'll probably play them because I'm sure they make sense to you, but I would also like to float another suggestion:
Everyone has an imaginary 'points' score, starting at 0. Every game you play with a mid-tier character, your 'points score' increases by 10. Every game you play with a low-tier, your points score increases by 20. And every game you play with a high-tier, you PAY 20 points. Obviously if you don't have 20 points, you can't play high-tier.
Optional: Every time you play MK/Snake you pay 30 points
Edit: I originally wanted to post to say kel & I are both sick, if we're still crook 2moro there will be no Pie. Stay tuned.

... intresting, how does winning and losing affect points, and what do the points affect?
either way, the final ruleset say is up to you, not me.
and can you make it to business time?
also what time are we starting tomorrow?
edit- I'll probably show up around 8/9/10 tomorrow, I have stuff to do before hand, sorry to people who wanted lifts
and if Isaac cancels, I'll probs run something during the day on sunday.

How bout this:
Play a high tier, get one point.
Play a Mid tier, get two points.
Play a Low tier, get three points.
Win with high tier, get 3 points
Win with mid tier, get 4 points
Win with low tier, get 5 points
Winner is the person with most points at the end.
Round Robin
2 matches against every opponent.
Yes?? No??

So...Scabe wins?
If he wins his matches then yes, he will probably win.
Ill give people a quick rundown of how it might work.
8 people attend.
someone wins all 8 of their sets (im changing it to sets now) with a high tier char. they get 8 points for using the high tier 8 times and 24 points for winning all 8 of their matches with a high tier.
Total points 32
Someone loses all of their sets with a low tier, they get 24 points for using a low tier but 0 points for losing all their matches.
So in the end, it encourages people to play with low tiers but doesn't cripple people who only play High tiers... well it kinda does but this is just a draft ruleset
[edit]
This is still quite biased but you get the basic gist of what im trying to go for

Double post
Screw the participation points, that just means that by playing a low tier all the time (in 8 matches) you would get 24 points which is equal to winning 8 times with a high tier lolol.
the other part of my ruleset still stands

Win with high tier 1 point
Win with Mid tier 1.5 points
Win with low tier 2 points
(All wins)
High tier only points total - 8 > 7 > 6 > 5 > 4 >3 > 2 > 1
Mid tier only points total - 12 - 10.5 > 9 > 7.5 > 6 > 4.5 > 3 > 1.5
Low Tier only points total - 16 > 14 > 12 > 10 > 8 > 6 > 4 > 2
Assuming that that people stick with one character only, if someone who played a low tier char won 6 matches (out of 8), a person who mains high tiers cannot beat them. If they win 7 matches, then someone who only plays mid cannot beat them.
I think this is pretty fair.

Dude,
High tier 2 pts
Mid tier 3 pts
Low tier 4 pts
...to avoid annoying decimal values?

its definently an intresting system, and one that I can agree on.
I've always felt it somewhat unfair with higher tier characters, yet people seem to ignore that for the sake of 'competativness', yet how can something unfair be competative
I really like it, the only flaw is if someone rolls face with a high tier and wins every match theres still a chance they wont win, but nandas system is probably the best we'll get.
as for me, I'll be using a mixture of high and mid.

I think it's okay if someone can win every match they play as a high tier and still lose, as it gives an extra incentive to play a mid/low tier character.

also, how does everyone feel about me hosting another tourney on the 3rd weekend after business time, out of staters?

Host one in the uni holidays and I will try my best to attend.
Also I like Nandas idea.

problem with nanda's system is that you can't really do brackets/double elim stuff with it. Otherwise it's pretty good.
edit: Luke, for my idea you play regular brackets/swiss/round robin as normal, but the characters available for you to pick depends on how many 'points' you have.

I actually felt like I was playing a **** fox for once

Yeah you played sick luke. Shame you choked in the final 
I felt I played a good samus when I actually used her - Dave felt the power of an uber-ghey ledgecamping robot
Mostly I used high-tiers though. I don't think it was a particularly good system simply because it made me not play my main. If you weren't attached to a main it wouldn't be too bad though.

I don't really see the point in playing a high tier if it's not your main, so the system didn't really affect me that much. It really just disadvantaged high tier mains imo.
I think we should try the three/five character rotation system next. That way it doesn't matter who you main, you will still be "encouraged" to use other characters.
And If we make it so that you have to choose one High, one Mid, and one Low tier character, it will be good practice for any upcoming tier tourneys.
