Its here once again! (And without the crummy Lawrence Venue!)

Saturday (For Brawl!), February 20th - Sunday (For Melee!!), February 21st
Olathe, Kansas

Venue:
Johnson County Community College
12345 College Boulevard, Overland Park
(913)-469-8500










The venue closes at 10 PM! So we will need to not “lollygag” around and get everything accomplished on time.



Tentative Schedule:
Saturday:
Venue Opens at: 9:00 AM
Brawl Singles/Doubles Registration: 10:00 AM
Brawl Doubles Bracket: 11:00 AM
Break-time for food: 12:30 PM
Additional Sign-Ups (For anyone arriving late): 1:30 PM
Brawl Singles Bracket: 2:00PM or 3:00 PM (Depending on how smoothly things run)

Sunday:

Venue Opens at: 9:00 AM
Melee Singles/Doubles Registration: 10:00 AM
Melee Doubles Bracket: 11:00 AM
Break-time for food: 12:30 PM
Additional Sign-Ups (For anyone arriving late): 1:30 PM
Melee Singles Bracket: 2:00 PM or 3:00 PM( Im assuming that melee will run faster than brawl)



Entry Fees:

*$5 Venue Fee! (Waived if you bring a TV or Wii/GC with Disc)
*$10 Entry for Singles!
*$10 Entry for Teams! ($20 per team)

NO REFUNDS!!!!!!!!! It messes up the pot amount.



Prizes:
*Top 3 Pot Split (For singles and doubles) after 10% house cut.
*This applies to both Brawl and Melee

-1) 60%
-2) 30%
-3) 10%


Brawl!!!



General rules:

* 3 Stock

* 8 minute timer

* Double Elimination

* Items are set to "off" and "none"

* All sets with the exception of winner's finals, loser's finals, and grand finals are best of 3 matches. All finals are best of 5.

* In the event of a dispute, controller ports will be selected by Rock-Paper-Scissors

* No player may choose a stage they have already won on in that set unless agreed upon by both players.

* In team matches, the ports will be determined in a 1221 fashion; whoever wins the RPS will choose first, then the opposing team will get their ports, and then the teammate of the RPS winner will get the last port.

* If the timer runs out, the victor is determined first by stock and then by percentage.

* Meta Knight's Infinite Cape glitch is banned. Anyone caught using it to lengthen the distance of Dimensional Cape will automatically lose that game to their opponent.

* If the game ends with a suicide, the winner will be determined by percentage. This includes Swallow-cides, Ganon-cides, Wario-cide, and Bowser's Koopa Claw.

* You are responsible for your own controller and name tag. Any malfunctions or errors that occur are your responsibility, so bring an extra controller if possible and always check to make sure you're using the correct settings BEFORE a match is played. If a match is to be restarted due to controller functions, it must be agreed upon by both parties.

* 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.

* Stalling is banned.

Stalling: The act of deliberately avoiding any and all conflict so that one may make the game unplayable. Running away from an opponent to reach a better position is not stalling, while doing an infinite grab endlessly against a wall is. Any infinite chain grabs must end quickly after 300% has been reached so as to prevent excessive stalling.


Set format (In Order of Procedure):

1. Opponents choose their characters for the first match *
2. Opponents start the stage striking procedure
3. Each player may announce one stage to be banned for counterpicks of the set
4. The first game is played, using the stage chosen during step 2
5. The loser of the previous match announces the next match's stage from either the Starter Stage List or the Counter Stage List
6. The winner of the previous match chooses their character
7. The loser of the previous match chooses their character
8. Repeat steps 5-7 for all proceeding matches


Additional Rules for Double's Play

* Life Stealing is allowed

* Set team attack to ON

There are plenty of places to get food near the venue. There is taco bell across the street and many more restaurants. Kansas isn’t very good when it comes to housing, so if it comes down to it, we will provide hotels for the OoS people. Fino’s apt. is available to anyone that would need housing as well (his apt. is about 30 minutes away from the venue).

For questions, call Fino or I at these numbers:

Ya, Im considering moving the date but as of right now, this seems to be the most convenient people for most people (who are already confirmed for coming)

I don't want it to be extremely close to NKv3

I REALLY want to go to this, but there's Naka-Kon in Kansas City, MO, that my friends and I have been planning to go to since forever ago happening that same weekend. :(

Is there anyway to bump it? 3-5 people from NE are going to Naka-Kon over this so that'd make me :(

If not I understand!
