KISH TOURNEY I
MIDWEST CHALLENGE
Inviting anyone (even if not from the Midwest) willing to drive to glorious South Bend, Indiana for a tournament the likes of which have never been seen! The tournament will be held August 9th at Trinity Church in the auditorium/gym. The plan for right now is to open up the gym at NOON for everyone, and start the team tourney at 1:15. Ending time is planned for 10 PM.
Address:
Trinity Church
61770 Miami Road
South Bend, IN 46614
The number to call on Saturday if you get lost or are late is (574)274-5122
Entry Fees:
$5 for singles
$10 per team (5 for each person)
Prizes:
Pot for both will be 60%/30%/10%
1v1 winner will receive $20 from V if he doesn't win
Out-of-state bonus of $15
Rules (a snexus/TG hybrid):
Double Elimination Randomly Seeded for teams
Depending on turnout, there may be a small round-robin entry/seeding round prior to the 1v1 tourney
Best of 3
4 stock, 7 minute limit (depending on turnout, subject to change)
Items on LOW, no hearts, tomatoes, stars, cloaking devices, or mushrooms
Damage Ratio 1.0
Hyrule Temple and Yoshi's Island 64 are banned
Snexus Slob Picks (Each person knocks out one stage for first round, Loser may switch either stage or character)
Team Attack ON
Life Stealing Allowed
Bracket Setup:
Teammates will be on opposite sides of the singles bracket.
States will be separated as much as possible for the initial winner's bracket setup.
Entry location into the loser's bracket will be randomly determined UNLESS if in the first two rounds, if two people that have already fought are placed together, the enterer will be randomly switched with someone else entering in that round.
We already have 4-5 GCs taken care of, but the more that you all can bring, the more friendlies we can get in. Let us know if TVs are a problem as well, as we may be able to supply one if for some reason you can bring a GC but not a TV. Obviously, alcohol will not be permitted on church grounds, but judging from the tourneys I've been to this won't be a problem!
If time permits, a crew tourney will be held, no entry fee, just for pride and a possible prize if we get around to thinking of one. Rules are below, but they explain better in person than online...
Crew tourney rules: Scamp got us thinking when he started asking about running the Kish gauntlet. A crew can be between 2-6 people. Register your crew upon arrival with a crew name. The total number of wins for each crew will be recorded throughout the day (team wins count double) and the crews will be seeded by wins into a single-elimination bracket. The sequence of each match:
1. Both crews will submit their player order secretly.
2. The #1 players (in order, not quality) will fight first.
3. Each member of a crew is eliminated after two losses. Losses carry over from fight to fight.
4. As players are eliminated, the next player sequentially takes his place.
5. Each team may swap the current player with one of their remaining players ONCE per crew match. This swap may be used before any match, and the other team may not respond to it until the next match.
6. A crew wins when all the opposing crew's members are eliminated.
So...you don't have to understand it yet, but it's an idea. Discuss. Anyway, even if we don't have a tournament, we'd be willing to take on any challengers in this style of fight. We hope to see representation from every midwest state, and might possibly have some more challengers from outside the region! So start making plans now! You can IM me (silverhk11), KishSquared, or KishCubed with any questions!
