Things were looking grim as Wiegraf was unexpectedly canceled. Plenty of people had already planned to go, people already took off of work... WHAT WERE THE SMASHERS SUPPOSED TO DO NOW!? Well it look's like the Fusion series is starting a little early ;)

Presenting Fusion 0.5 (since 1 was already announced for March lol), the latest and greatest tournament to hit the Jersey Shore!

Date:
February 20th, 2010

You can arrive as early as 11:00am

Address:
Red Fusion Gaming Center @ The Shore Mall
6725 Black Horse Pike
Egg Harbor Twp, NJ 08234-3904

Tournament Play:
Doubles will play as a standard double-elimination bracket.
Singles will do pool play eliminating down to a smaller double-elimination bracket.
Why? Doing pools gives new players more bang for their buck giving them a guaranteed 4-5 matches instead of only 2. For pros this means more warm up for singles, or perhaps giving you a chance to practice other characters in tournament without risking your bracket placement right away. Pools will be eliminating so the tournament doesn't take forever and so the bracket runs nice and fast.

Payouts:
Singles - 48/22/14/8/4 (in %, both 5th place players get 4% of the pot)
Doubles - 55/30/15 (in %)
Hey guys! No longer just a battle for first place! Top 5 receives money from singles guaranteed!

Stage List:
Starter - Battlefield, Final Destination, Smashville, Yoshi's Island (Brawl), Lylat Cruise
Counterpick - Castle Siege, Pokemon Stadium 1, Brinstar, Delfino Plaza, Brinstar, Raindbow Cruise

Other Rules:
-8 Minutes

-Best 2 out of 3 except Winners Losers and Grand Finals are 3 out of 5
-You can not pick a stage you already won on in that set
-Set Procedure: Blind pick (if needed) for characters, 1221 stage strike for first match, then for matches 2 and 3, winner bans a stage, loser picks a stage, winner picks character, loser picks character
-Items are set to off and none
-Stalling (as in doing infinites past 300%) is banned
-If the time runs out, winner is decided by stocks then percent. If it is an exact tie, then a 1 stock rematch on the same stage will be played with a 3 minute timer.
-No MK Infinite Cape
-All other standard rules I might have forgotten

Fusion 1 is still March 13th, this is an extra tournament, not moved. They also both have different threads. Fusion 1 is still stickied and normal. I'm holding this because everyone wanted a tourney asap this weekend because Wiegraf got canned.

Anyone willing to give me a ride? I'd love to go, but it's near 3 hours away from me. :(

If I can go, I'll bring a full set up.

Chibo, you win for having pools. =D

I might go all Falco, or Falco for alot of my matches. I need the experience. Meta Knights should friendly my falco and help me learn the matchup.

PD, the parkway is essentially traffic-free in any non-summer months.

Malcolm and I definitely need that ride.

I'm offering 60 bucks to anyone willing to pick me up. I live very close to the city, about 25 minutes away from it. I don't have much of a curfew either, just guarantee that I'll be there by the time doubles starts.
do u live around Boothwyn, Glen Mills, or Chadds Ford(NOTE: they are all in PA)?
bcuz i live in Chadds Ford, and if u live in one of those cities then ill try to convince my dad to take u when he takes me to the tourney...

Atomsk, Izumi, and I are going. My partner should be obvious. Izumi will bring a Wii and I'll bring a TV.

Hooray.
You and Trevor can get 2nd if you want, me and Izumi are getting first though :p.

Just don't lose last hit to dmbrandon/Shadow again when you clearly should win the same day we mutilate them twice. :)

I'm glad Izumi can get decent partners now. I wish you guys the best of luck. Sadly for you, Izumi can't fight either of us at all.
