Introducing Arch Nemesis, a St Louis monthly Super Smash Bros tournament! Our first ever tournament will kick off on July 18th, featuring Melee, Project M and Smash 4. The tournament will take place at Southern Illinois University, Edwardsville, 20 minutes from downtown St Louis. Free parking is available all day at the venue. Please arrive at least 15 minutes prior to your events for check in. If you are not available when your matches are called, you may be disqualified.

Since this event will be being hosted during Evo, we will have streams running during the event so we can keep up with the action!

Registration:
$10 venue
$10 per team for doubles events
$5 per player for singles events

Receive a $5 discount for bringing a full setup! A setup is defined as a CRT, console and game for Melee/PM or as an HDTV, console, game and Gamecube adapter for Smash 4. As DLC is legal for Smash 4, please have the DLC characters and stages as well.

Please pre-register with us at the following link: https://payableform.appspot.com/forms/iqr8f
This will help us determine pool size and if room becomes an issue, it will ensure your entry into the tournament. Only the venue fee is required at this time, payment will be taken in cash at the door.

No, only the base version of 3.6b is allowed. Custom music is the only 'mod' that will be permitted. Unless that was a joke. I'm not a PM player so I have no clue if you are joking or not. XD Also, the rules for PM have been updated. There was a miscommunication and I actually posted the wrong set. Let me know if you guys see any glaring issues.

I was joking yeah but there are ridley and waluigi mods for pm and also I kinda forgot that ridley is hard to set up for 3.6b

Also what is a double blind character select? And what does the payout percentages mean precisely because I've never been to a big tournament (actually the only tournament I've been to was barwarz XD)

2 issues I see on the pm one is 1) that fountain of dreams is a counter pick on pm but neutral on melee I was thinking maybe switch it with green hill zone or something to make it stay the way it was in terms of amount per stage select and 2) only Giga bowser is banned while we still have Wario man which has been released in 3.6b using the same method as Giga bowser

Whoops, the actual link provided was the correct one but it was redirecting to the old rules for PM. This has been updated.
