Other Rules & Special Issues


Controller mods of ANY kind (short-hop mod, L-trigger mod, etc),
except for cosmetic changes (paint job, different colored plastic), are
banned. If you are caught using a banned controller you will be
disqualified from the tournament.

Turbo or programmed buttons of any kind are banned. You may use
third party controllers or pads that have these features, but if you
are suspected of using the banned features you will not be allowed to
use that controller any longer.

Glitches used to stop your opponent from controlling their character
or indefinitely freezing them, or any glitch or trick that freezes the match
or makes it in any way unfinishable are banned. Using them will result in the
immediate forfeit of the match.

Tactics such as Jiggly's Rising Pound are allowed as methods of recovery or
to maneuver around the stage. Using them (or any similar tactics) to excessively
stall a match, such as dropping below levels intentionally and stalling underneath,
is banned. Judges will be on the tournament floor can be called in at any time to
enforce this rule during a match.

You are responsible to bring your own controller. Any controller is suitable
for this tournament (wii mote/nun chuck/classic), just make sure people around
you are not also syncing at the same time as you.

This event also isn't at my house, and we will follow the house owner's rules as he see fits.

Credit for 98% of the Ruleset foes to Cort, because I'm not even cool. After there will be some social activity (PAHTAY WOO!!!!!111!eleven!!!), so if your interested then feel free to post how not cool I am.

All about this tourney especially seeing as how its right down the street from my house. That and I'll probably have to babysit Memphis running it cuz he's not even cool.

Yeah the date thing has been crazy but 24th seems to be the best way to go, so let's go with it. We're going to have the grill fired up as well, so any favorite sauce or grilled entrees you like go ahead and make a suggestion or just bring it since that would work as well.

I know it's been crazy but date is now set in stone Aug. 24 which is a sunday hope to see everyone there and should be fun.
