This event is a big sponsored event by King of the Couch. Info on the group is here at NJHALO.COM there will be lots of other games here as well. Back years ago everyone went to a KOTC event and had a great time. I decided that it was time we had this relationship renewed.
As far as the venue it is HUGE. It is a giant park, think new ROC CITY, and has lots of things to do while you wait for the matches to be called. Here are some vids of the venue

In the event of a TIE at the end of the time limit, the player with the most stocks wins. If both players have one stock then it is decided by percentage. If both players have ONE STOCK and SAME PERCENTAGE the players will quit the SUDDEN DEATH, set the stock to one, and start a match with stage being the same as where they had the tie. This will determine the winner.
Each Round is best of three matches; Grand/Losers/Winners Finals are best of five matches*
Singles seeding will be random with some courtesy to crews – you will be spaced evenly as to prevent playing each other in the first round. One of the two criteria must be fulfilled in ordered to be favored. You MUST have 3 or more people in a group hailing from the same region, or you must be part of a crew. Teams seeding will be done randomly.
