Diem is back with his first tourney in like... FOREVER
I've found a venue that can cater as many as we'd need it to up to about 60-65 people comfortably. Also, it's worth noting that this store has a group of around 15 to 30 local players that come through for their usual Brawl tourneys. Hype, I know. A lot of new blood, which means if we play nice, there could be a bunch of fresh faces in our future. Which is good. We have too many Pwiis and NAKATs around.
The venue is a Play-n-Trade, so Retro Monsters like Kai are gonna be pumped. They have a pretty nifty selection, too. Some kid traded in Musashi, Crono Cross, Megaman Legends 2 and a bunch of other stuff right in front of me today. FF7/8 and a bunch of other classics, too. Everything, Atari and up can be traded/found, as well.
Venue Address
Play-n-Trade
1407 Route 35
Middletown, New Jersey
Schedule
Sign-ups: 10:30 am
Doubles starts: 11:30 am
Singles starts: About 3:30/4:00
Venue closes at 11:00
Payout and Pricing Information
With our partnership with Play-n-Trade, we've come up with a cool new way to get your the prizes you'll earn. You can opt for the normal payout, or have your payout be in store credit with an extra 10% added on. 200 for first place? 220 with store credit. So if you're a gamer, you'll make an even bigger profit than before.
Also, you can trade games in, and use that store credit to pay the venue fee. The tournament entry has to be paid in cash.
Venue fee = $5
Singles = $10
Doubles = $10 per person ($20 per team)
MvC3 = $5
$5 dollars off venue fee for bringing a TV and a Wii as needed.
$2 dollars off venue fee for bringing a WII as needed.
You WILL NOT get a discount for bringing systems we can't use. Generally speaking, it'd be better if you guys had an idea of if you were bringing it a few days or so in advance, so I can schedule ahead.

Food
We're in a shopping plaza, so there are plenty of places to eat. Pizza, Chinese, etc. All you have to do is give me a notice you're going to eat, and I'll happily float matches for a short time. We're also minutes from Boston Market, Friday's, Friendly's, Dunken Donuts
Oh, and not lame kids, there's a Retro Fitness. ^_~

STORE RULES:
This is promised to be pretty hype, so I expect a lot of you to be in attendance. I'm not huge into Smash right now, so this is really important to me that this goes well. This can also become a fairly regular thing, if it turns out well.

- Items will be off.
- You may ban one stage
- Life stealing is allowed in teams.
- Smashballs will be OFF.
- Advanced Slob picks: First match is a blind pick, where the competitors will tell their character to a judge, and then proceed. The loser of the first match will then pick the next stage, then the winner may choose his character. After, the loser will choose his character and begin. The same will happen for the third match, if forced.
- You may not counterpick a stage that you won on.

- 6 Minutes Late: Loss of set
- No scrooging: Going completely under the stage so that you pass from one side to the other three or more times in succession without having landed on the main platform is banned and will result in a forfeit of the game. Clinging or hanging on ledges, as well as landing on floating platforms, do not count as landing on the main platform of the stage.
- Ports: Higher Seed gets port priority. In any event of confusion or debate, the judge can defer it to a game of Rock paper scissors. winner chooses ports first.
- *35 Ledge Grab Rule: If time runs out and you have grabbed the ledge over 35 times you lose the match.
* The stage strike system will be used to determine the first stage. Each player, starting with the higher seed or determined by the players with rock/paper/scissors, will strike one stage from the neutral list until only one is left, and that will be the stage played on for the first match.

NOTE: You may play any banned stage as long as both you, and your opponent agree and ask a judge! If you agree, there will be no complaints!
Marvel vs Capcom 3 ruleset.
- Blindpicks may be requested, but if one player picks a team AFTER the button check, he/she is locked into that team.
- Winner must keep Team/Assists but may change order.
- Loser may change team.
- All sets outside of 'finals' sets will be 2/3 games. All finals will be 3/5.
- All characters/stages are legal
- 99 seconds, medium damage.
- No use of any glitches, even accidentally, that would prevent a player from being able to be present on the screen. This includes the Zero Glitch.
STORE RULES:
- No stealing. If you're caught stealing, I might just beat your ***. Seriously, my rep's on the line with this place, and if we want a new, more comfortable venue, we're gonna need people to not be lame.
- No cursing. It's gonna happen, I know. First offense is a warning. Second offense is a set loss. Third, and I'm gonna kick you out. There are gonna be little kids around, and we have to be respectful of that fact that the store could lose business over it. Keep it clean. Speaking of which, if you smell EVEN A LITTLE BIT, you're doneskies.
- Clean up after yourself. Don't leave wrappers around, or soda bottles. If I see you do anything like that, I will DQ you faster than you can tell me to Obey my Thirst.
- NO MONEY CAN EXCHANGE HANDS BETWEEN PLAYERS IN THE STORE. This is serious. If you're going to MM, the money has to exchange hands outside. If I see money out, you'll both be asked to leave. The owner said you can do whatever you want, but the money has to be exchanged OUTSIDE. NO JOHNS.
This is promised to be pretty hype, so I expect a lot of you to be in attendance. I'm not huge into Smash right now, so this is really important to me that this goes well. This can also become a fairly regular thing, if it turns out well.
