If we get more feedback on the Facebook event page soon about more people wanting Smash 4 then we may add it, otherwise it will be P:M only. You won't be required to enter the tournament if you show up to spectate or play friendlies, but friendlies won't be available after the tournament starts until later in the tournament when the bracket thins out. What smash game(s) do you play mostly by the way? Campus Cards and Games in the same area hosts weekly smash tournaments on Tuesdays, usually with Melee/P:M/Smash 4.

 

[herpyderpherper]

Oh thanks, i mostly play smash 4 but im trying to get into the other games competitively, could you give me the link for the Tuesday thing? Also will it be streamed?

 

[Zach777]

I am able to bring two tvs but only one Wii. Anyone want to bring their Wii and PM for my other tv?

No problem, and I'm not sure on the time details for each game since I don't go as often as I'd like. Try messaging and asking @Azzy? He tends to post the results from those tournaments on here.
I apologize for missing your initial question about streaming too. This tournament will not be streamed, though we would like to make it possible for future tournaments. As of now we don't have all the necessary equipment readily available to make it happen.

 

[Corby]

*IMPORTANT NOTE* The tournament date has been changed to Sunday, June 7th. The time will be the same, and we were forced to move due to complications out of our control. I apologize for any inconvenience. Be sure to come on Sunday, not Saturday!

 

[Zach777]

That happens from time to time with tourneys. Thanks for the alert post. Will there be PM doubles?

 

[Joshua taylor]

yay! a project m tournament in the orlando area! And five bucks only 0-0 you can count me in for sure!!! Also, if you need it, i can bring a setup and some controllers :D oh yeah, one more thing: a smash commentator group named "gcub3d," are lookin for local tourneys to stream for, and i beleive they do it for free, so i think you might wanna check them out.

 

[War Anvil]

@ Joshua taylor : Yooooo, you make me not want to meme with your mama. Although you shouldn't advertise anything on this site (At least not from what I remember), I approve.

We'll post our decision tomorrow!

Good to hear! A set-up would be awesome as well. Any idea how I'd reach gcub3d by the way? Multiple people have asked about streaming and I'd love to make it happen.

Doubles is a go. Registration and start times have been updated accordingly.

 

[Zach777]

Awesome that doubles is happening. What is with the stagelist change? I really liked the original Rise from the Ashes stagelist.

We figured we'd switch it up and see how people feel about it. We'll be asking for more input after the tournament to see how people feel about the change.

 

[Corby]

I'm also happy to announce the tournament WILL BE STREAMED.
It will be streamed on Gaming Knight's Twitch channel. Mad props to them for helping us make this possible. Get excited people!

Here's the link to their Twitch stream profile : http://www.twitch.tv/gamingknights1/profile

 

[herpyderpherper]

about how often are these tournamnets? i cant make this one because of the day its on but would like to do another onw

 

[Zach777]

@ Corby

Yes, getting streamed!!! You should tell the guy who makes those "this weeks smash streams" on the SWF main page about it for stream advertising, Corby. But I am not sure what day that gets posted on.

Thanks for answering my stagelist question.

 

[milkmafiamaster]

Also please contact me directly if anyone else thinks they can bring a setup!

I am planning on bringing a setup

 

[Corby]

We hope to turn it into a once a month thing, though we may condense that down even more. It's all good, we'll definitely be doing it again!

 

[Corby]

Thanks to everyone who came out to the tournament, it was a blast! Congrats to StereoKidd, Sartron, and Eikelmann for placing 1st, 2nd, and 3rd respectively. I hope everyone had a good time, and I hope to see you all at the next event!

From the Ashes III is happening, now including Melee! Mark it on your calendars!

 

[herpyderpherper]

What time does this start? Also do we get less of a price if we just bring the console and game - the tv? Hopefully will be coming to this

 

[Zach777]

Why Melee? This is a revival tourney. Its should be PM and Smash 64 as 64 desparetely needs tournies, Melee does not. I am not hating Melee, just saying that Smash 64 should be the other event instead.

Also, hype. Will bring my 1 setup and extra tv.

You can come at 12:30pm, and the tournament start times are as listed on the first page. I'll have a couple extra TVs, so if they haven't been taken by the time you show up then I'll waver your door fee with a console. Hope you can make it!

That's a good point, I might actually consider doing that next time, haha. We figured we would try including melee to see if it attracts more participants, but we likely won't be running it at every tournament after this, as the focus of the whole event is to primarily promote Project M. Look forward to seeing you there!

@ Corby

Your PM ruleset has a few loopholes in it. Because of the ASL feature (when you hold l for alt stages) , I can counterpick to the Brawl version of GHZ for janky wins since the game does not differentiate the names of the stages. Same loophole for Pokemon Stadium 2 is present. Just thought I should let you know so that you can avoid ruleset exploit headaches before they happen.

Good eye, thanks dude! I updated the P:M Stagelist with a side note about that.

[War Anvil]

Ayyyyyy, daijoubu, baby. I guess I'll be getting a lotta Smash action two weeks from now!

 

[Zach777]

Hey @ Corby , I noticed in the Tournament Info section of the OP that you would waive the door fee if I brought a MELEE setup. Is that true even though Melee is not an event this time?

Bringing melee setups won't waive the door fee this time since melee isn't being featured at this tournament, but you're still welcome to bring a melee setup for friendlies. Look forward to seeing you again too

 

[NWRL]

Gonna show up, and try to bring some friends with me.

Please do, that'd be awesome! We're hoping for this to be our biggest PM tournament yet!

 

[Corby]

Tournament's tomorrow, get excited! I look forward to seeing you all there.
Also All-Star Mode tournament ruleset has been updated.

 

[herpyderpherper]

Is it at the same place it was last time?

Correct!
