Yup another Sfl tourney hosted by yours truly! Its time we bring the hype back here that we once had! Let's get it!

The Venue

LOCATION:
Zero Ping LAN Center-Directly in front of Seminole Hardrock Hotel and Casino

ADDRESS - Zero Ping- 5450 south state road 7 and the zip code is 33174, Suite Number 11

If I were you, I'd follow my directions and use mapquest ONLY as a reference, as they tend to give screwy directions to this place for some odd reason.

So basically this place is found on 441, between the main streets of Stirling Road, and Griffin... Those are two exits off of I95, i'll have the exit numbers later. So, easiest thing I can tell you to help you not get lost, though I'm not sure if it's the fastest depending on where your coming from, Go to I95 (south or north respectively) Exit off of Stirling Road and head WEST from 95. When you hit 441 (or state road 7, same street) Make a right. You should now be heading NORTH. The next light you'll see is a street called Seminole Way. The second Street is called Lucky Street. The plaza is on the right in between these two streets.

But to not get lost ever, or miss it, just make a Right onto LUCKY STREET, and there's an entrance to the plaza on the right as soon as you turn, where u will see the infamous "Only hill"

All sets will be the best out of 3 matches, except for the finals which are best out of 5.
Items are OFF.
If there is a tie at the end of the time limit, then the person with more stocks wins. If both players have the same amount of stocks, then the person with the lower percent of damage wins.
Wobbling is legal
You will be disqualified if you use any freezing glitches, such as the Ice Climbers' Freeze Glitch or Mewtwo's Soul Stunner.
Any non-first party controllers must be inspected by an official before use.
Performance altering controller modifications are not allowed.
Stalling a match is not allowed (such as wall-jumping under Battlefield), but recovery tactics such as Peach's Wall-Bombing, and Jigglypuff's Rising Pound are allowed.
Dave's Modified Stupid Rule will be in effect. No player may pick a stage he's won on during one set.
Pausing during a match will result in a loss of one stock during the match being played.

Neutrals 1v1:
FD
Yoshi's Story
Dreamland
Battlefield
Fountain of Dreams

Neutrals 2v2:
FD
Yoshi's Story
Dreamland
Battlefield
Pokemon Stadium

Counterpicks 1v1:
Kongo Jungle
Brinstar
Rainbow Cruise
Pokemon Stadium

Counterpicks 2v2:
Kongo Jungle
Brinstar
Rainbow Cruise

Stage Striking will be in effect for the first match of the set. The player with the lower port will get to choose the first strike. Loser choses ban before next match.
One ban per player per set. To be chosen after loss.

Modified DSR: You cannot go back to the last stage you won in a set, unless agreed upon by the other player.

The player choice clause!:: If both players agree to a rule outside of this ruleset, feel free to play by that. If one player wants to counterpick Mute City and the other player is fine with that because they think it's a fair stage, then that is more than fine. However in the event the two players disagree, house rules stand.

I'm sure we will get at least one car from CFL with 5 people easy.
Are you going to host these consistently?

advent II is the week after this and then there is nothing after that for like weeks. Is there a reason you chose the 1st? Just my opinion, I think you should move it back or ahead. (either september 24 or october 22/29) so the attendance doesn't conflict with each other. Also so ppl can have a 2 week break in between both events. I think you can get more people this way.

Either way I'll go unless something prevents me

If it's conflicting with anyone's schedule. Please let me know and I'll gladly move it back to the 29th provided I get a good turnout for this.

I'm very interested. I hope I can attend, but sadly, Orlando is my only link to getting to South Florida.

I'd really love to go, and I can get to Orlando to grab a ride with someone. Please save a spot for me if someone is driving. Thanks.

Please contact me via PM if anyone is driving.

So what if I win the first match in a neutral stage (Final destination) and then my opponent counterpicks ______ and I lose there. Am I not allowed to counter pick Final destination in the 3rd match?

This is correct. You may not go back to Final Destination after winning on that stage already. (Unless your opponent agrees to playing on Final Destination on the 3rd match)

Btw, your avatar of Mysterio is the exact image I used when uploaded SPIDEY VS MYSTERIO:

Does it still apply if the first neutral was picked at random? Because then technically I didn't chose the stage.

Mysterio is the master of mind games.

The date seems fine to me, its about time sfl hosted a tournament, and waiting for more than a month to do so when there has already been 1 advent just last week. If anything i'd ask you to push advent towards the 15th to allow a 2 week spam between the tournies.

just my opinion doe. I'm talking to gville and swfl currently....this should be hype

Leave it then, it sounds like people don't mind anyway. I would move advent but I believe Next Level Lan has brawl that date.

Don't really have the option to pick and choose

Point is i'm glad to see sfl finally hosting again. Hope we can get a good turnout. I'm probably driving since I hate how everyone needs to go 100mph the entire way. I'd rather just chill and take an extra 30 mins or whatever

The 1st is good for me. 22nd and 29th aren't. If you have to postpone to improve attendance then go for it, I just won't be able to come.

One more week guys!

I wonder what kind of luck Emilio is having at getting DaShizWiz to participate.

Also I've played this new guy here, Cesar, who says he plans on going to ADVENT. I told him about this tournament too, but I'm not sure if he's gonna make it to this one. He also said I'm the BEST Ganon he's ever played against. So I'm trying to get him to get to this tournament so he can meet all the superior Ganons here: like Spidersense, Linguini, and RockCrock.
