So it appears Castle Siege will be moved to the counterpicks list.
Cobalt you make excellent points on all the stages you mentioned but I think in the end I'm just going to say "screw SBR" and make an even number of starters.

Delfino has played good as a starter, although the scene does change quite a bit, it doesn't last long and anyone should be smart enough to know how to avoid the characters who can cheap them out for that small amount of time.

Halberd in my opinion and in my recent experience isn't as friendly as Delfino due to that last bit where the ship takes all of it's anger and suffering out on unsuspecting Smashers. Just in the last tournament I was in a crew battle in Brisbane against Vyse's Diddy Kong and all I had to do was take one stock from him without losing any of my stock. Just as I was about to seal that deal the god-d*mned claw hits me and kills me first. That, my friend, was BS. (although after Vyse I took 5 more stock in that crew battle *thumbs up*)

Corneria is just a stage, if people have a problem with campy characters then that's what stage banning is for. I have witnessed many times why it can be banned but that also may have been the players fault.

Pokemon Stadium 2 is....well yeah it's a lol stage but not worth banning.

Once again, Shadow Mosus is a great counterpick for certain people. If someone has a problem with it, then stage ban it. Although you do make a very reasonable point for this stage so it will probably be banned before next Sunday.\

Finally, yes you're right about Mario Circuit, I'll ban it. Plus I lol'd at your DeKar pun, genius.

Everything seems to be in order.

If everything goes to plan then we will be having about 9 tv's and 9 wii's at this tournament which is great.

Jei - 1 tv, 1 wii
Yanoss + Eva - 2 tv's, 2 wii's
Nix - 1 wii
Everence - 1 tv
Vermy + Ugz - 3 tv's, 2 wii's
OceanX - 1 wii
Atlas - 1 tv
Mr. Phantasmo - 1 wii
IceK - 1 tv, 1 wii

If any of this is incorrect or has been changed then let me know asap.

Also I had an idea about the (?) tournament. If enough people stick around for it, we could have a crew tournament. Crews of 4-5 double/single elimination or just a round robin.
If there isn't that many people by the end of the singles tournament I guess we could just split the remaining smashers in half and have one big crew battle.

Post your comments on the matter :)

For the record, its both me and Ugz that have 3 tvs and 2 wiis between us.
And bravo to all who are bringin gear. If these are the numbers for those who have posted, imagine how many more will show on the day! =D

And crew battle sounds good.
*sulks* woulda liked a low tier... =(

But crew battle is good.
I call for a vote!
A vote I say!

One more point I forgot to make about Corneria is that Arwings come into shooting randomly. Imagine a Marth about to land the finishing blow on Fox when all of a sudden, he gets hit by an Arwing. That allows Fox to land his uair and finish the game. Random obstacles ruin competitive play imo

Counter/Banned
Green Greens
Mario Circuit
Onett
Port Town Aero Dive
Skyworld

According to SBR rules they gave TO's a choice to ban it or not. This stage was banned at Brisbane's Summersmash I went to last weekend so I guess I threw it in the banned list without much thought.

If anyone has a problem with this then speak up because personally I don't think this stage is ban-material. I just don't like it lol.

Lylat is fine as a starter. Why did it go to CP? =(

If a stage needs to be removed along with Castle Siege, then it should be Delfino. That functions in the same way as Siege, the players need to move around and adapt to a new environment every 45 seconds or so.

Onett is horrible in brawl.

Green Greens is fine and dandy though imo.

Port Town should be moved to starter and obviously Jei isn't going to ban Skyworld XD.

Why is Pictochat is allowed while Skyworld isn't?
Why has Lylat been moved down to counterpick? It's one of the most neutral stages!
And why is distant planet allowed as a stage when Green Hill Zone is banned?

Lylat is not neutral. The lip of the stage screw over so many characters' up b recovery. Ie. Marth, fox, wolf, falco, mk, p.trainer, wario, lucario etc. Not to mention the extremely low floor destroys pk thunder torpedos.


Edit: and pictochat? Hazards don't really hit the border where a player stops fighing the opponent and starts fighting the stage. Not sure where, but some number of pages back there was a discussion about skyworld and why it should be banned. I can see why picto would annoy. Eg. Hit by the big 'splodey bullets as they spawn. Or zelda using dins fire on the edge and the giant face blows her into helpless state = death.
I personally don't have a prob with pictochat, but I'm sure Jei and X wouldn't mind hearing the debate.

People who have a problem with the current stage list visit http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=187735

Scroll down to the stage-list section.
There you will see a list of stages TO's have a choice to place in starter or counter. I thought about it and made my choices. That's the way it will stay.

X holds Jei responsible for the ****-storm if/when it happens.

BUT after reading the stage list, I pretty much agrees. It's fine, and we'll adj. as req.

Just for the lulz, if anyone could bring a mic that'd be sweet. Post here to let me know or MSN me or whatever.

Oh, btw, masterx___@hotmail.com is my MSN if you gairz need to add/talk to me about anything, anything at all ; )

For what it's worth, I think banning Skyworld is a terrible choice. One less interesting, dynamic stage around because people don't want to bother with mastering tricky stages.
Lylat would be fine for starter. I seem to remember a certain Melee stage ****ting people's recoveries a bit but I don't recall people trying to get that knocked off random neutral.

not recovering in brawl is near impossible anyway, i agree, leave skyworld and lylat cruise
it's easier to get gimped in melee, even on dreamland. if you can't recover in brawl you suck.

btw brawl is a fantastic game that is really fun to play and everyone should come to this monthly, which im sure will be fantastic because jei is running it.. and brawl is great
