Players can only enter either Brawl or Melee for teams or singles, not both. I don't want players to hold up the tournament by switching between games.

It would slow down the tournament if people do this.
Unless, people bring setups and pay a $3 venue fee so I can buy a lot of tv's.
Maybe not a lot, but at least more.

Nothing wrong with a 3 dollar venue. I usually bring a wii

suriously tho
there was barely enough time for singles/doubles last time.
i really don't see how we could 4 events.
maybe 3 with more TVs but i can't see 4.

We can do 4 events if everyone pays the $3 venue fee so I can buy additional tv's for the tournament. However, you are going to have to bring wiis/GameCubes and brawl/Melee disks so we can put those tv's to use.
If you want numbers, I think the average cost for a medium sized tv at a thrift store should be ~$10. if I get 10 players to show up, that allows me to get 3 extra tv's. Or if I buy smaller tv's, I can get 6.

Corneria's fin promotes camping
Rainbow Cruise is not a stage to fight on
If you want, I can pretty much drop the idea of counterpicking and just leave the stage list as either 5 neutrals + PS and KJ64 as counter picks, or I could just add them to the list of neutral stages.
I want consistency in stage legality and I personally believe Brinstar is more broken than Mute City (you can literally break Brinstar).

Possible. Just get your players to provide the setups because at most, I can only provide 3 tvs. (I can buy more anytime in advance with the $3 venue fee)

EPilson you gotta make a decision on that dude. I'd recommend doing a venue fee to get more TVs. Only 3 bucks from each person but it'll go a long way.

I have. I'll make my budget 3x the number of guaranteed entrants. Right now I have 7 guaranteed (I didn't update anything since like 2 or 3 days before Apex) so that means my current budget is $21. I will buy the tvs Tuesday or Wednesday before the tournament.

Ah ok, well I'm bringing Ash with me, so you can make that 8.

Bye Sypher, lol.
Also, since I've only got 9 on the guaranteed list, I'm just going to drop the 1 game per singles/doubles event. And if it somehow gets magically hyped, $3 from everyone can buy more than enough tvs. I might even start my own summer monthly tournament franchise with the venue and tvs I'll have. Maybe I can even reserve a day during my winter break too?
Yeah, the 1 game per doubles/singles idea is canceled.

It sucks so much. I'd rather just drop the idea of counter picking almost entirelyand just make the stage list
Neutral:
FD
BF
YS
DL
FoD
Counterpick
PS
Want to do that instead? People always complain about counterpick stages. I think it's time we finally drop the idea.
As a tournament host, I have to either stick with my ideals at the cost of having less attendence, or suck dicks to bring in more players. Smashers are such complainers.[/complaining]

The counter pick stages are fine.
There is nothing wrong with the current counter pick stages in the official ruleset.

Actually, we are going to have plenty of time. The venue fee is $3 for every person and a tv at a thrift store only costs ~$5. I can get a lot of tvs if a lot of people say they're guaranteed to go. The players are of course going to have to bring their wiis/GameCubes and Melees/Brawls if they want to put my tvs to use. The only real problem is storing all those tvs at home and bringing all hose tvs to the venue. Anyone want to help with that part?
KORNNNNN~

Thanks. Here's my current plan. I need someone to guard my tvs as I bring them from my house to the venue several at a time. You'll mainly just have to keep an eye on them until the venue doors open.I could help you and stuff if you need

I highly recommend a stagelist from there.
Preferably 5 starters with CPs up to group two. I mean I'll be here regardless, but I think most people would prefer that.

Just do MLG rule set for Brawl Epsilon. You aren't even gonna be playing it, lol.
I am thinking about hitching a ride to this with diru... we'll see, I don't want to confirm or anything cause I haven't even asked him, but I just realized he was going to this. If I come I can bring 2 TVs, and a Wii w/ Brawl and Cube w/ Melee (idk if all the stages and characters are unlocked for Brawl though... lol).
*crosses fingers*
As far as a Melee ruleset, I agree we should just get rid of CPs all together and have the 5 now-neutrals + KJ64 and PS as a set stage list. I remember hearing HMW mention that one of the tournaments he recorded at did this, so it's pretty obvious (to me at least) that this is the way the rule set is going to end up being. It's just a matter of how long the community is going to fight the change for. Not too upset though, because CPs are rarely played as it is, and even when they are it rarely makes a difference in placings.
Sooooo, maybe just use the Pound 5 or some other large upcoming tournament's rule set as the default, and encourage players to agree to a newer rule set to test it out.

Yay, A Brawl player finally gave advice for a stage list.
A lot of people on AllisBrawl make blogs about how bad it is. I don't know... I'll trust RZ.
I might.
Wow, I think there's going to be a lot more setups than I initially thought there would be. Pools for events with 20+ players anyone?
ok, fine.
So have you changed the rules so that we can enter all or any of the 4 events?

glad you're taking my advice
i think you're missing a few cps though.
it should look like:
Final Destination
Castle Siege
Delfino Plaza
Halberd
Frigate Orpheon
Brinstar
Pictochat
Rainbow Cruise
Pokémon Stadium 2
Jungle Japes
Norfair
One thing that I think we're all foreign to is having FD as a cp rather than a neutral. I'm personally down for giving that a try, its in the BBR ruleset 3.1 afterall.
