SP (ShadowPhoenix) and Ttar (Tyranitarphantom) present their first regional event, #EducatedFeet!
Location:
2007 Pinoak Drive
Nicholasville, KY, 40356
Fees:
Venue - $5
Doubles - $10/person ($20/team)
Singles - $10/person
Melee: $5/person
Registration will begin around 10 AM for doubles, and end at around noon. Singles registration will end at around 3 PM, and will begin when teams are over, or deep enough to not bottleneck singles
General rules:
Venue only has one major rule - NO CURSING. It is a family friendly venue with kids that enter often, and as such, the owner requests there be no swearing in the venue. Repeated offense will lead to possible disqualification, and ejection from the venue, up to the discretion of the store owner.
The venue is called Game On Frozen Yogurt/ The Playroom, and it is both a used game store and a frozen yogurt shop. It's split into two halves, but you can come and go between them as you please. They have a wide variety of flavors for frozen yogurt, and every topping you can imagine. We've got a few photos of the venue:​

Schedule:
10:30am: Doors Open, registration for Brawl Doubles and Melee Singles begins​
12:00pm: Doubles begins​
12:30pm: Melee begins​
1:30pm: Registration for Brawl Singles and Project:M begins​
2:30pm: Registration for Brawl Singles ends​
3:00pm: Singles Pools begin (assuming doubles is completed)​
5:30pm: Kentucky vs Ohio Crew Battle (assuming pools are completed), Project:M registration ends​
6:30pm: Brawl Singles bracket begins​
8:00pm: Project:M begins​
Tournament Rules:
-3 stocks
-8 Minute time Limit
-Items set to "Off" and "None"
-Pause set to "Off"
-Meta Knight's infinite dimensional cape tactic is banned.
-All infinites and chain grabs are legal until 300%
-There is a 40 Ledge Grab Limit for all characters. If a game goes to time and one player goes over the Ledge Grab Limit for their character, they will automatically lose th game. If both players exceed their Ledge Grab Limit, then this rule is ignored.
-The act of stalling is banned: stalling is intentionally making the game unplayable: Such as becoming invisible, continuing infinites, chain grabs, or uninterruptible moves past 300%, and reaching a position that your opponent can never reach you.
-Any action that can prevent the game from continuing (i.e., freezing, disappearing characters, game reset, etc.) will result in a forfeit of that match for the player that initiated the action. You are responsible for knowing your own character, and must be wary about accidentally triggering one of these effects.
-If the Ledge Grab Limit does not declare one player the winner, the winner will be declared by what the game says in all situations, except for when players are presented with sudden death:
-In the event of a match going to time, the winner will be determined by who has less percent (stock difference still takes priority but will be shown in the results screen).
-If the match ends with both players dying at the same time (either coincidentally or via suicide move) or if time ran out with both players at equal percent, a one stock three minute rematch will be played on the same stage.
-For a tie-breaker match, a Ledge Grab Limit of 15 is used for all characters.
-Pools play seeding will be determined by set wins first, followed by head to head wins in case of ties, followed by wins - losses, followed by replaying of a starter stage best of 1.
Modified Doubles Rules
-Team Attack set to “On”
-Double Meta Knight is Banned.
-Life stealing is allowed.
-In the event of a game reaching the time limit, if a single player on a team exceeds their Ledge Grab Limit, that team loses. If one or more players on both teams exceed their Ledge Grab Limit, then the Ledge Grab Limit rule is ignored.
-In the event of a game going to time and the Ledge Grab Limit can not determine a winner and both teams have an equal amount of combined stocks, then whichever team has a lower combined percent is declared the winner.
-If percents are tied then a 1 stock per player, 3 minute tie-breaker match on the same stage will occur.
-If a player is using the character Pokemon Trainer, Lucario, or Sonic, either team may request that team colors be changed to make it easier to tell the difference between team players.
Set Procedure
1) Player Priority is determined if it can not be agreed on. (See below for details)
2) Each Team selects one controller port to use for each Player. During Teams play controller ports 1 & 4 and 2 & 3 will each constitute as 'one controller port.'
3) Each Team selects one character for each Player. A double blind pick may be called by any player.
4) The first game is played on a Stage selected from the Starter Stage List either by mutual consent or through the Stage Striking Method. The order of stage striking will be 1-2-1 (Team 1 strikes a stage, followed by Team 2 striking two stages, with Team 1 then striking one of the two remaining stages).
5) The first match is played.
6) The team that lost the previous match may opt to re-pick controller ports (with themselves picking first).
7) The Team that won the previous match may announce one “Stage Ban” if they have not already done so in this set.
8) The Team that lost the previous match announces the stage for the next match from either the Starter or the Counterpick Stage List. Any Stage named as a “Stage Ban” by the either Team may not be selected. No Stage may be used by a Team that has already won on that Stage in this set.
9) The Team that won the previous match chooses one character for each Player.
10) The Team that lost the previous match chooses one character for each Player.
11) The next match is played.
Repeat steps 6-11 for all proceeding matches.
Determining Player Priority
If there is a dispute in controller port selection or initiating Stage Strike use the following method:
Teams will use a random method such as Rock-Paper-Scissors, Coin Flip, or Game and Watch Judgment, where the winner selects either first choice in port selection or first choice in stage striking. Whichever team does not receive first choice in port selection will be compensated with first choice in stage striking.
Payouts:
Doubles:
1) 60%
2) 30%
3) 10%
Singles < 32:
1) 40%
2) 30%

Singles > 32:

OH YEAH actually, do Melee. We have a melee scene in KY now, so we should definitely try to include them as well! It would be a great opportunity for them to get to play against other melee players if you state that melee is an actual event here! :D

Does low/middle tier include D3 now?
I was thinking of disallowing C+ tier, if we do end up having Mid tiers as a side event

We'd like to, but other games deserve a chance too. We're not sure if we'll be able to run more than one side event, so for now, we're just saying one. If we end up able to run more than one side event, Melee is pretty much guaranteed (of course, if it wins the poll, it's guaranteed as well)

Who else wants to have a smash 64 tourney? I can get it up to 2 votes, but that is not enough, if we can't get smash 64, I can get Brawl Random up.... or mid/low tiers up.

I definitely approve of Melee at this.
Along with a Brawl Crew battle.

BEEPOS, THIS VENUE IS AWESOME.
The OP doesn't do this venue justice. The venue is part game store, part froyo (and by god is this the best froyo I've ever had. Along with almost 100 toppings). We have solid internet for a solid live stream. We have 2 projectors. A main stage and a venue owner willing to do giveaways. Please come out to this. This is the place that could really put the Kentucky Smash scene on the map. This tournament will NOT disappoint and I can assure you that.

We're trying to get a stream, currently the option is open for whoever wants to run the stream. If Kiest wants to come down and run the stream, he can. Or, if FishFlop wants to, I won't be opposed to it.

I'm going to ask Dan to drive to this and if he's okay with it. Maybe make a carpool together? SK + Me + whoever else wants to go.

I have a high chance of attending Crossfire 3 which is the same day as this. I'll know more on that soon. But if things work out with Dan let me know.

The Macho Man, will make an executive decision here and go ahead and say that melee should be at the event. I really want to go to this and the only thing keeping me back is the fact I can not play brawl worth a damn.

This is luigigo-shard. Lost my account info when the board switched a couple months back and had to make a new account. Anyways, put Melee in!! We can make it at least a little bit more hyped than any other side event. Melee!
