What's So Special About This Tourney?

A little about myself first...
I am RPGfan, I am the president of "Game Knights" a student organization at New Mexico State University (NMSU). I had organized a previous tourney to try to get us going, but since it was our first time, it didn't go so well... Anywho, we're back and I guarantee you it won't be the same. Why?
Because while we have a whole new crowd of dedicated Game Knights, I also decided to start some local Power Rankings. More info on the scoring system will come later. I think the The New Mexico Smash Community is fairly large, and I think we can at least establish some good power ranks. So anyone in the world may attend and have a chance for the pot, but only New Mexicans can get ranked in this tourney if they wish to.

question my dependability/notability/elegibility?
