Awkward Tournaments

AKA All tournaments that deviate from Tournament Legal.

Now I haven't played any tournaments at all, but I am interested the non-TL tourneys simply because of variety and unpredictability.

Unfortunately, I don't want to put any concern into tournament play, so I really can't tell for myself.

But if you have ever played an non-TL tourney, please share the experience.

The GameStop tournament, lol. items on random, random stage, one minute, REQUIRED to use Wiichuck...not fun lol
I won that one. Still got the trophy, lol. I fought Korn and some other Melee vets on here and lost back when it first came out. ;p

Today I went to a classic 1P mode tourney at my school. Everyone played classic on easy difficulty with 3 stock, and whoever got the highest score won. I won with Ivysaur spamming bullet seed....


The prizes, though.... were very awkward.

Instead of cash, I got a gift card to iTunes, a gift card to Best Buy, a DVD of "From Russia with Love", a pair of nunchucks, and a stuffed animal penguin.





quite awkward....

Umm, this is the melee forum.

I think the only non tournament legal rule set I've ever used was in game crazy tournaments which were FD only 3 stocks, single elim no 2/3, basically made it so I could sweep the tournament REALLY fast lols.

My GameStop managed to make it worse. Random character was forced. I mean, sure, the first round I got Dedede and "3-stocked" my opponent, but when it's your first time playing brawl and you get PT on New Pork City...yeah, not the best.
