Smash Champion
Please note that this tourney is taking place along with a DDR/ITG tournaments. This means there will be a lot of stuff going on both days and we'll do our best to keep it under control. Also please note that this is my second Smash tourney, and I've been running dance game tournaments for years and it follows the same format mostly. James (Pac!) and Adam (LoZR) will be helping me in running Smash itself. I'll be doing a lot of simultaneous running about to make sure everything else goes smoothly.
The tournament itself really begins Friday and runs through Sunday, and people are more than welcome to come on any of those days as I plan on setups generally always being available.
Stuff should be starting at about 1:00 or 2:00 pm on Saturday. This won't be taking all day, so we can be a little laid back with it. There should be an immense amount of time for friendlies.
EDIT: No idea why I keep forgetting to post this.
Location of the venue/phone number:
900 Benvenue Rd
Rocky Mount, NC 27804
(252) 972-3880
Rules and such for Melee
This is all standard stuff for anyone who goes to tournaments on the regular.
I SUPPOSE you could bring Brawl and play it if you so desire, but the tournament itself will be Melee only.
EDIT: My friend Justin/SGX from Myrtle Beach will be bringing Brawl+ which has quite a few game improving mods on it.
Divisions:
Pools will be done if there's enough people, random seeding if pools aren't necessary.
January 3rd (Saturday)
Singles:
-Double elim.
-10$ entry fee.
-4 stock, 8 minutes
-2/3 matches a set. 3/5 for winners finals, loser finals, and grand finals.
-No items
Teams:
-Team attack is on.
-Double elim.
-20$ entry fee (per team)
-4 stock, 8 minutes
-2/3 matches a set. 3/5 for winners finals, loser finals, and grand finals.
-No items
Pausing is auto DQ, unless there are mechanical difficulties or some serious outside distraction.
Stages:
Top half represents singles, bottom half represents teams.
Red means banned
Yellow means counterpick
Green means neutral
EDIT: XIF is correct that I just used the old MLG picture; I didn't even notice that those stupid stages are allowed. Thank you guys for pointing that out to me.
Extended Singles/Doubles bans: Great Bay, and MK2
Allowed but Not Neutral for Doubles: Rainbow Cruise and DK64.
As far as I know, Green Greens is a legal counter pick (see M2k vs Mango), so I'm gonna leave it in.
If you are involved/entered in the tournament, please make a habit of swinging by the area where Smash is going to be taking place; having to come find you will be an aggravation that I hope will be reserved for the rest of the tournament.
BRING TVs, CUBES/WIIs, AND COPIES OF MELEE
BYOC, obviously. You do NOT want to have to use Gerod's controller.
I'm not sure where exactly we're going to be carved out at Putters but hopefully there will be more than enough room. This thread is cross posted from AIJ (international dance game forums)
It would be super sexy for a decent amount of people to show for this, at least a decent showing from east NC. I do realize that it's shortly after New Years, which is a date I would have never picked, but I had to get what I could take on this one. Post if you think you'll be able to make it or if you have questions.
