FPS18 is coming back to Play It Again Games with Melee, Project M, and Smash 64 Singles for you guys this time. Dust off those old N64's and get the practice in. (Also if you plan to participate in Smash 64 please bring your own 64 controller unless you want to use my booty 3rd party one XD)
Schedule:
12:00-Doors Open
1:30-Project M Singles Bracket Begins
2:30-Melee Singles Bracket Begins
3:30-Smash 64 Singles Bracket Begins
Location:
Located about 15 minutes away from UNCC and practically in the same parking lot of the Concord Mills Mall this is the ideal location for all your new, retro, card, and board gaming needs. Concord Mills Blvd is directly off I-85 as well so it should be easy enough for you travelers to find. There is plenty of food in the area including Steak & Shake, Chic-Fil-A, and of course the food court in the mall. While no outside food or drink is allowed in the venue they do offer drinks and simple snacks at a very reasonable cost. Also be sure to keep your language and behavior family friendly I look forward to hosting more events here so let's show them the good side of the Smash community. It's important to note this is a high traffic area so be sure to keep that in mind when your heading to and from the event. Be sure to like and follow their Facebook page by clicking the image below.12:00-Doors Open

Location:
Project M Ruleset:
For everything except the stage selection we use the Apex 2014 ruleset, including character selection and stage striking. However, we will be using a new stage list I've been working on with other TO's in the region. Since the Apex site no longer has the rules up here's a link if you are unfamiliar: PROJECT M RULESET
Project M Stage List:
This is a new stage list for PM 3.6b that we are testing out with 12 stages and 3 counter-pick stage bans.Green-Starter/Neutral Stages
These stages are available all rounds but are the only ones available for round 1.
-Green Hill Zone
-Pokémon Stadium 2
-Smashville
-Battlefield
-Dreamland 64
Yellow-Counter Pick Stages
These stages are available only after round 1 is complete.
-Warioware Inc.
-Final Destination
-Yoshi's Story
-Fountain Of Dreams
-Norfair
-Yoshi's Island Brawl
-Distant Planet
Red-Banned Stages
This should be self explanatory.
-Everything on Page 2
However, if you and your opponent agree to it you can play on any stage you like. Just don't be salty if you loose on Rainbow Cruise and you agreed to it.
Melee Ruleset:
Melee Stage List
There is no changes and I don't foresee there ever being any.Starters/Neutrals:
These stages are available all rounds but are the only ones available for round 1
-Yoshi’s Story
-Fountain of Dreams
-Battlefield
-Final Destination
-Dream Land
Counterpick:
These stages are available only after round 1 is complete
-Pokemon Stadium
Banned Stages
This should be self explanatory.
-Don't feel like typing them all so let's just say everything else
However, again, if you and your opponent agree to it you can play on any stage you like. Just don't be salty if you loose on Poke Floats and you agreed to it.
Smash 64 Ruleset:
For Smash 64 I run things slightly different then the standard Apex ruleset. I added Hyrule Castle as a Counter-Pick to have some more stage diversity. If you are unfamiliar with the basic rules of this game you can find them here: SMASH 64 RULESET
Smash 64 Stage List:
Like I said Hyrule Castle has been added to the stage list, however now having 4 available stages allows you to have 1 Counter-Pick ban but still no DSR.
Starter/Neutral Stages
These stages are available all rounds but are the only ones available for round 1
-Dreamland
Counter Pick Stages
These stages are available only after round 1 is complete
-Peache's Castle
-Hyrule Castle
-Congo Jungle
Banned Stages
This should be self explanatory.
-Everything else
However, if you and your opponent agree to it you can play on any stage you like. Just don't be salty if you loose on Saffron City and you agreed to it.
