An Arcadian is a tournament where the top players of a city are barred from entering.
Am I eligible?
- You have entered at least 1 San Antonio Monthly or 2 San Antonio Weeklies since the last Arcadian
- You have not made top 3 at a weekly or gotten into bracket at a San Antonio Monthly since the last Arcadian
- You have never won a Melee Arcadian in San Antonio
I'm not eligible, why should I show up?
Well, If you made top 3, or got into bracket:
- I'm anteing up pizza and drank on me
- You will not pay venue
- It will be hype
Schedule
Venue opens at 12:00 PM, so that's the earliest you can show up!
Tournament Schedule

2:00 PM| Doubles Begins
4:30 PM| Dinner Break Begins & Singles Registration Ends

- Registration for all events will start at 1:00 PM.
- Exact change is appreciated, but not necessary. Helps keep payout pools separate without too much hassle.
- Full setups must arrive before 2:00 PM in order to qualify for the $5 venue fee refund.
Venue Fee: $5 per person (required from all attendees)

What to Bring

2. Your own controller (GameCube controller)
If you bring a full setup for any game, we will refund your $5 venue fee at the end of the tourney.
A full Melee setup is a CRT TV, GameCube/wii, Melee disc, and fully unlocked memory card.

Rules
We will be using the MBR Ruleset for Melee. It can be found here.
Code of Conduct:- All ejections or disqualifications due to violations of the Code of Conduct or individual game rules will be without refund.
- No alcohol or illegal substances inside the venue. Getting caught with these items or evidence of the presence of these items will result in disqualification from the event and eviction from the venue.
- No fighting or weaponry inside the venue. Throwing controllers or acting in a way that could pose a danger to other players will result in disqualification from the event and eviction from the venue.
- No refusal to play on certain TVs or setups will be tolerated barring extreme circumstances. All players agree to have their matches recorded if requested by the TO.
- Be on time to your match. You have 5 minutes from when it's called to be at your station or you forfeit the first game. If you are 10 minutes late you forfeit the match and are either out or in losers.
I don't tolerate collusion of any kind. I don't want to hear it. I don't want to see it. I don't make money off this event. I give up my Saturday to run this event. I do this because I want the San Antonio and surrounding scenes to have another tournament to go to. If you are strapped for time come talk to me. We can work something out.
In the case that 2 or more placing players are caught colluding, prize money will be redistributed to the next qualifying tier of players. This will be a pain for everyone involved. Don't do this.

WE NEED PEOPLE TO BRING TVS!
I can only provide a couple TVs to start with, so it's up to the rest of the community to bring more and make the event easier to run. More setups means more friendlies and more playing time, so please do your part if you have equipment to lend us for the day. Remember, if you bring a full setup, we will refund your $5 venue fee at the end of the tourney.
