Temporary news:
Due to problems with teh venues, we are forced to delay AFC for an unknown amount of time. As we'll be able to progress in our search for venues (= during summer vacation), we will provide any useful info as soon as possible. We would like to apologize for this unfortunate turn of events.
OMG it's a tourney, mofos! So hot my Bob-omb is almost exploding, as you can see
<-------
ATM (NGCXX, bornfidelity, Johnny, Ryuker, Thomaz and Savior) and XTC (Dave and Linkje) present to you a brand new tourney: Our fusion of ATM and XTC, called
AFC 4, All Forces Combined 4
By cooperating, we're going to try to make this the best tourney experience you've ever had, lasting 3 days long. Of course everyone is invited to this grand event, the dutchies AND the foreigners!
The even newer stuff presented by Helios is:
SUMMER VACATION
The most awesomestest thing to do would be holding this tournament right after ROS4. Helios told me there were lots of Americans he'd talked to who definitely had interest in coming to Europa. (even PC Chris, Ken and Korean DJ O_____O ZOMFG)
That would go like this:
Sweden -> Party + sightseeing + chill + w/e in Sweden -> ROS4 --> All fly to Netherlands -> Party + sightseeing + chill --> AFC !!!
What do you guys think about THAT one eh?
+
The Wii!! The questionable thing is though, that maybe, just maybe Brawl will be out already. That could mean certain tourneys will be replaced by Brawl tourneys. But we'll see about that later.
In the meantime, we'll try our best to find the most awesome venue we can find, the most awesome location and of course, the best and most awesome players from anywhere
The tournaments we'll try to go with are these (may change):
Day 1 : Low tier
Day 2: Teams and possibly Low Tier teams if we have time left
Day 3: Singles
Day 4: Crews and Regionals (OMG!)
And The Rules, of course. Copied from XTC-3 with a few up-to-date changes.
Rules for Singles:
First there will be the pouls. (not sure yet how many, depends on how many people there are)
After Pouls it's Double Elimination, best of 3. Best of 5 from quarter finals, best of 7 for winner's finals.
4 Stock, 8 minutes Stocktime
If the timer runs out the player with the most stock left wins. In case of a stock tie the player with the lowest percentage wins (so the Sudden Death does not count in this case). In case of a percentage tie the Sudden Death is played.
Items are off.
First match in a set the stage is either agreed upon or random. All further matches within a set the loser of the previous match gets to pick stage. However, if a stage has already been played in a set it can only be played a second time if the winner of the previous match agrees to play it again.
The following stages have been taken of random select, have been banned and can not be selected under any circumstances:
Peach's Castle, Kongo Jungle, Great Bay, Temple, Brinstar Depths, Yoshi's Island, Green Greens,Venom, Poké Floats, Big Blue, Onett, Fourside, Mushroom Kingdom, Mushroom Kingdom 2, Icicle Mountain, Flat Zone, Yoshi's Island N64.
That leaves just 3 stages on random select: Pokémon Stadium, Final Destination and Dream Land N64. Any other stages can be counterpicked.
The first match of a set both players are allowed to pick character, all following matches only the loser of the previous match is allowed to switch character if he wants to. The winner of the previous match must remain the same character.
And finally, stalling tactics such as Peach bombering or rising pound are banned unless when used for recovery.
Rules for teams:
Team attack is on.
All other rules are the same as 1 vs 1. Mute City and FoD can't be picked though, due to lag issues.
Rules for low tier:
Single Elimination or Double Elimination (Depends on time left)
Characters allowed (in tier order):
Link
Luigi
Donkey Kong
Roy
Young Link
Pikachu
Yoshi
Zelda
Mr. Game and Watch
Ness
Bowser
Kirby
Pichu
Mewtwo
All other characters can not be used.
All other rules the same as 1 vs 1.
Rules for low tier teams
Same as Low tier singles. Team attack is on.
Mute City and FoD can't be picked because of lag issues.
Rules for crew tournament:
1. Crews of 4-5 members
2. Divide 20 stock between them(evenly).
3. Players make a sheet that says the characters they will use, and who will play first. This sheet will be shown to the other crew at the beginning of the set to make sure no cheating happens.
4. Stage selection will contain the neutral lvls only and all matches will be selected by random. The same stage cannot be played twice in a row, but can be played more than once in a set.
5. Whichever crew loses all of their stock first loses.
6. When the match starts and one player has to SD in order to have his required stock(such as 4 stock vs 3 stock) the person who has to wait may not charge anything such as needles, charge shot, shadowball, etc. It would be if the person just stood still. The player that has to SD may not harm the other opponent.
7. Players who win their matches only need to retain their stock(he won the match with 2 stock left, he goes on with 2 stock). Players will not need to regain their damage.
