If Final Destination is banned, Omegas are banned and vice versa

C. Additional Rules

● Stage Striking: For the first round the player with port priority strikes one stage from the Starter Stage list. Then the other player strikes one stage and the remaining stage is used for the first match.
● Stage Clause: You cannot counterpick a stage that has already been played on in the set.
● Stage Bans: After a game, the player who won the
previous game may ban 2 stages from either the Starter or Counterpick lists. Then the player who lost may choose one of the remaining stages to play on.

I'll have a copy of the stage list at each station, so don't worry.

---The Matches---
Matches will be best 2 out of 3.
The top 4 of the Winner and Loser brackets will become best 3 out of 5.
No items.
3 Stocks.
8 minutes.


---Venue Rules---

RULES FOR BOURBON STATE SMASH

- Brandy is the venue manager. What she says goes.

- Refrain from cursing. This is still a game store and multiple children do come to browse the store daily.

- No stalling. If you are unsure of what it is, ask one of the organizers.

- Contain the salt. No controller slamming, fight starting, or anything in that aspect.

- No food or drinks near the setups. You wouldn’t want your Wii U smelling like Chipotle, so neither do we.

- Drugs and alcohol are banned from Something2Do. If we see it/smell it on you then pack up and leave.

- Disrupting someone mid-match intentionally or accidentally is not acceptable. Please do your best to make sure you are not disrupting a match. If flagrant, we will penalize or disqualify.

- Don't lose anything you're bringing to the event please, we are not liable for lost/stolen etc. Keep your controller with you. A good idea is to get a colored twist-tie and put that around the cable of you controller.

- Respect the setups. We all worked hard for our stuff so no damaging anything. You will be perma-banned for this.

- You must register for the event in person, on-time. Once the registration deadline is closed, no further entries will be permitted. You must pay the event and venue fee by the deadline, as well. If you know you are coming and have already contacted me about being a few minutes late you need to pay as soon a you get here. Usually the latest I will allow is about 20 minutes.

- Collusion of any kind (asking, intentionally throwing matches yourself, "agreeing to split", etc.) is subject to instant disqualification from all events, forfeiture of all prizes, and a potential 1 event suspension at the T.O's discretion.

- Do not touch Dag’s laptop. People can get hurt that way. I will disqualify anyone I see messing with it without my permission.

- Failure to follows these rules can get you kicked out with no refund.

There is plenty of food around. Firehouse Subs, Fazolis, Starbucks, Qdoba, etc. You can walk over to Papa John’s in this same strip and grab a pizza, as well.

Let me know if you need to step out to grab some food and I can try to push back your matches, but don’t take too much time. I have the right to mark you as losing the match if you aren’t present.

Respect the TO's, as we are doing this for you guys.

So with the Update Patch coming let's note any differences we see. I'm sure there will be a thread somewhere on Smash Boards with all the updates. Any patches you guys are hoping to see? Personally I'm looking for a decrease in landing lag on some characters. I keep trying to do Melee tactics and I keep getting punished for it. Hopefully I'll get in some good training/practice once this update comes up so I'll be more pre-pared for the tournament.

The main things I want are Diddy, Sheik, and custom mii Brawler nerfed, kill throws in general nerfed, and for Duck Hunt's smashes to be consistent instead of having opponents easily get knocked out of them before the killing hit.

Just wondering, is this a bi-weekly? I'm interested in it, but I'll be out this weekend.
we try to do it every three weeks. Sometimes it gets push forward or back a week but we let people know. Follow the Bourbon State Smash facebook page for all the details, we post everything super far ahead there so everyone is on the same page!

Was playing against some Mewtwo's the other day and I saw some off the stage techniques that were pretty impressive. I'm interested to see what people bring to the tournament.

I'm thinking about bringing my Wii U to be used as a setup. I have mewtwo but I don't have a gc adapter.

We have extra Gamecube adapters! Rumor has it Gamestop should be getting some for regular store stock soon that are separate from the pre-orders that will be coming in May 1st. So be on the look out.

I recommend adding Skyloft, Pokemon Stadium 2 and Wuhu Island as counterpicks.
(The Instant-kill Ness glitch has been patched on Wuhu.)
