Oh hey quick question for the host:

How are we going to communicate to our opponents on which stages we ban/pick? Are we going to just do it through the Twitch Chat or is there another method we are going to use?

Currently we use Twitch chat for communication. While the tournament is going on I put the chat in slow mode to make it less hectic.

No it's not too late, some people sign up 5 minutes before the tournament begins.

Communication with your opponent will be done through twitch,

Stage selection works 1-2-1 to determine where the first match will take place.

First Match: Host strikes 1 starter stage, player two strikes 2 starter stages, host/player one strikes one more and then you play on the remainder.

After the first match: Winner has 3 stage bans and then loser would counter pick.

If you want to counter pick a stage that's not part of the legal stage list your opponent HAS to agree to it otherwise you can only pick from the legal stage list. :)

You can counter pick Battlefield cause it's a legal stage.

Also you can switch characters in between both sets and matches.

Yep, every Wednesday and Sunday.

Wednesday Tournament is Single Elimination with Customs on sometimes 1st gets a prize.

And the Sunday Tournament is Double Elimination, No customs and there's almost always a prize fir 1st. :)

Also a hall of fame has been added for past winners, if there's and changes that need to be made, let me know.

Ahh no worries. I can't speak for everyone here and their schedules, but for me it might actually be better to have this at 6:30 tomorrow, will allow me to enjoy the (hopefully) nice days out for awhile after so much work. :estatic: See you all tomorrow! :b:

Hmm okay. Maybe my brother will be entering with me then since he works on weekends. Speaking of which @ ADAPT Chance ADAPT Chance if my brother decides to enter the tournament too, is it alright if we share the same system to play our matches? Also if the answer to the first question is yes, due my brother's lack of a Twitch account, could he possibly message his opponents through my account?
