I'll be posting the most up to date information here. Keep watch on this thread to see where and when the circuit's events will be!
The ruleset that the TOs will be able to modify will be posted below once the SBR ruleset is finished.
This image should be updated a bit from time to time, but this is just a visual. You can kind of see the range I'm going for when it comes to the circuit events.
Midwest Circuit East Venues, Dates, and TOs!

Tournament at Ohio University held by the OUGA group! This venue has several ROOMS with lecture-style seating and giant projectors for observers, plenty of places for various TVs, computers in every room, and a college-level internet connection. Streaming will be a must here, and if we get setups we can have an entire room for friendlies!
OUGA has run several events very well in the past, and they have the best "fun" events ever. If you can show up Friday, do it.
4th Champs- June 20th of June
Springfield, Ohio, with Nope! His event was a blast with nearly 100 people and was by far the best run event I've ever been to. Nope and crew were an obvious choice for championships. Hopefully the drive won't be too bad for people, because this one is gonna be huge!
Remember, this event is worth 1.5x points!
I really wanted to have a double tournament month for the circuit since we started so late, but 4 events will have to do for the spring. I don't want to interfere with the larger travelling schedules of the summer months, and people need some space between events to save money.
I'm already planning the next MWCircuit series, so if you want to be a TO send me a PM ASAP! Make sure to check Rofa/Panda's MI-based circuit thread in the Midwest forums too! Fall of '09 will have TONS of tournaments with big names, big prizes, and big venues. Get hyped!
Misc. Information:
All actual dates are subject to change if deemed necessary.
Double tournament month may be changed to April due to end of college and other distractions.
All tournament rules will be set exactly one week from the tournament, meaning zero changes will be tolerated from that point forward.
In the case of a massive disagreement, lost venue, tragedy or emergency that results in a MWC East tournament being cancelled, a replacement tournament in a similar location will be used if at all possible. Should a replacement not be found, April and May will both be used as double tournament months to make up for the lost month; the venue and location will be given out far enough in advance so that you may save money for travel expenses.
All MWC East tournaments will be using the SBR official rulelist v2, posted below. TOs are able to add the optional rules as they see fit with the punishments they see fit. TOs are not able to add or remove stages from the starter/counter/banned lists, but can move stages from starter/counter or counter/banned to one of the two appropriate stage lists. Long story short, all TOs will use the SBR list within the SBR rulelist guidelines. Please don't complain about the TO choices whether they are for more conservative or more liberal; the stages were voted on by the SBR and were discussed extensively.
All the money info will be hosted online in a google document and no, you cannot see it. The TOs, myself, and those in the MWC group will be able to see it. You will still be able to see placements and whatnot in the place below, but I don't want a TO hounded by the public for any reason and that includes financial reasons. We'll all handle the financial stuff, don't worry about it.
