--HAVOC IN THE HAMMER--
Havoc in the Hammer?
That's right, Havoc in the Hammer. A soon to be epic Brawl and Melee tournament located in Hamilton, Ontario. A venue to end all venues, able to fit 250 smashers(That's right, 250), a parking complex across the street (No parking meters for you!), a restaurant only a few metres away as well as a cash bar for those who are 19 years of age or older! Now I know what you're thinking, "I'm sold, give me every last detail so I can hurry down there on the 15th!" and thats a great thought, so here you are:
Where?
Sheraton Hotel
116 King Street East
Hamilton, Ontario, Canada
The second floor of the hotel is host to several ballroom and conference rooms. We snagged the largest, at a surprisingly low price. (Venue fee is 800$)

When?
August 15th, 2009.
As of yet, this is going to be a one day event. But I do not want a venue like this going to waste, and I want some international hype. A Canadian COT4, but with less fail. (No offense Chibo) So given the venue fee, if I can secure 160 smashers for certain, I will rent out the room for two days. The more smashers, the less the venue fee. (Which looks to be 10$ for now.)
What?
This tournament will be running both singles and doubles- and if we have time, a low tier singles tourney.
Venue Fee: 10$ (This will drop as more and more smashers pre-reg.)
Singles: 10$
Doubles: 10$ (Per teammate)
Singles Prize Pool distribution will be:
1st- 60%
2nd- 25%
3rd- 15%
(This WILL change based on attendance.)
Doubles Prize Pool distribution will be:
1st- 60% (30%p1 / 30%p2)
2nd- 25% (12.5%p1 / 12.5%p2)
3rd- 15% (7.5%p1 / 7.5%p2)
How?
GENERAL RULES FOR BRAWL
3 stock, 7 minute timer (Items are set to off and none)
All matches will be best of three with the exception of Losers finals, Winners finals, and Grand Finals, which will be best of five.
Stage striking will be in effect for all matches. (Both players will strike a neutral stage until one neutral is left, which will then be played as the first match. Both players are allowed 1 stage ban, regardless of Bo3 or Bo5.)
Dave's stupid rule is in effect for all matches excluding pools. (If player A has beaten player B on a stage, player A may not choose that stage again unless both players agree.)
Matches that end in sudden death, will not be determined through sudden death. The player with the lower percentage or stock advantage prior to sudden death will be declared the winner.
Suicide moves that result in sudden death will ignore sudden death and result as a win for the player who initiated the suicide move. (Ganondorf or Bowser side B.) If by chance Ganon or Bowser dies before the character grabbed does, and the game ends in a win for the opposing player, this win will be ignored and given to the player who initiated the suicide grab. (If you can't stop a bowsercide or a ganoncide, you don't deserve the win. xD)
Stage List:
[Neutrals]
Final Destination
Battlefield
Smashville
Yoshi's Island
Lylat Cruise
[Counters]
Castle Siege
Delfino Plaza
Brinstar
Pokemon Stadium 1
Frigate Orpheon
Rainbow Cruise
Jungle Japes
(I know it seems bleak, but I've seen a lot of complaints about Norfair, Pirate Ship, and even Pictochat, so let me know if you think another stage deserves on the counter list.)
BANNED TECHNIQUES!-- If caught by the TO or other assigned staff doing any of this, you will be disqualified from your match.
-Metaknight's infinite cape glitch.
-Marth's infinite grab on Ness/Lucas
-Dedede's standing / infinite chaingrab
(Chaingrabbing into a wall, like those found in Delfino, Rainbow Cruise and other stages are allowed to a certain degree. If after six grabs the opponent is not launched, you will be warned and asked to stop. If you do it again, you will be disqualified from the match.)
-Iceclimbers trade-off/hobbling chaingrab for more than six grabs.
-Planking and Stalling!
(I cannot stess this enough, if I hear a complaint about stalling or planking I will watch the match personally. If I do not see any aggression for a full minute, I will disqualify you. Also, if I hear a complaint of serious planking I will ask to see the after game report to determine how many ledge grabs were achieved. If something ridiculous such as 70+ ledge grabs is what you have compared to the opposing player's 20, I will disqualify you for obvious planking, unless you can prove otherwise.)

Team attack is turned ON
Chibo's colour blind rule is in effect. If a player has seeing disability, he or she may take priority in choosing team colours as to distinguish teammates easily.
