PROCEDURE:

All participants must post their friend code in this thread by 2:00 Eastern tomorrow. Failure to do so will result in disqualification.

As soon as pools are posted, you may start contacting people to play your matches. We recommend email, aim, private messaging, the Wifi Wars chat, Smashboards chat, and the Smashboards matchfinder.

We highly recommend being connected via chat, skype, aim or other real-time messager to your opponent.

ALL MATCHES ARE TO BE COMPLETED BY 10PM EASTERN TIME.

Judges and referees will be on hand from 12:00pm-10pm Eastern. You may start playing prior to noon, Sat 3/29, but refs will not be on hand to handle any disputes.

Lag:
If a match lags, you will have to play through it. Lag is expected in online play, in particular in brawl. Like randomness in poker, it is something you will need to play around.

If a match lags out, you will have to replay it.

REPORTING MATCHES:
When you finish a match, post in your pool's thread the results.

Losers of matches are strongly encouraged to report their own results. We will accept winners reporting, but losers have better validity.

We recommend taking a digital picture of the victory screen if you foresee a dispute. If the match is under 3 minutes, you can use Brawl's built in save feature.

A thread will list active referee for a particular region. If you have a dispute, contact them.

Your result will be reflected in the first post by a regional referee. If you do not see it posted within an hour, please contact a ref to make sure it gets counted.

IF YOU DO NOT PLAY ALL OF YOUR MATCHES:
All unplayed matches will be counted as a loss. Do not leave matches until the last minute, or you might find yourself unable to complete them.

It is recommended that you save drafts and histories of any pms, emails and ims that you send. If, after the deadline, you can prove that you made an effort to contact an opponent who did not respond, you will receive a victory. You will have to prove that you made multiple efforts and made yourself available.

Again, disputes should be directed to the referees listed in the stickied topic.

PROGRESSION:
To advance to day 2 (double elimination), you must be one of the top 2 players from your pool.

Only the top 2 will advance.

However, if you lose any (or all) of your matches, you are not "eliminated." All participants are encouraged to play as many of their pool matches as they wish. After all, this is for fun. Make some friends, get some friend codes, and learn some new tricks.

If you choose to drop out: POST IN YOUR POOL'S THREAD. If you drop out, everyone who you have not played will receive a W. Those whom you have beaten will still receive Ls.

Stalling:
Excessive stalling is defined as using any glitch or tactic to make your character completely untouchable by an opponent for an excessive amount of time. Using such tactics will result in a match forfeit. Players must submit video evidence to demonstrate that this rule has been violated for the referee to rule in their favor. Also, please note that running away within the normal bounds play or camping ledges does not constitute stalling.

Lag:
No Johns. Lag is not an acceptable excuse for quitting out of a game. A player that quits out during gameplay without the permission of a referee will automatically forfeit that game. Video evidence must be submitted to a referee to prove that this rule has been broken for the forfeit to go into effect. Without video proof, players must complete the match.

Video:
All players are encouraged to record every single match and save those files until the opponent has properly reported the results. Video files can be used as proof in the event that an opponent cheats or lies.

Referees:
Referee contact information will be posted with each pool. Players should only contact referees in the case of a rule violation and they must present video evidence in this instance. Any disrespect or harassing of referees will not be tolerated and will result in disqualification. Referee rulings are final.

Most of all:

HAVE FUN

Brawl lags if the internet browser is open? I don't think so, I have a high-speed connection with a router... Also, I don't plan on downloading Skype or any other voice chat.

Actually can you please download aim?

Cuz its way faster for us to communicate through it...we'll be able to discuss if you wanna choose a stage after you lose a match, or change character and all sorts of stuff. If you use the boards it'll be more time consuming...aim is so instantaneous its like we're talking to each other IRL..

..so I beg ya to please DL aim and tell me your s/n after you have it setup it takes a couple seconds to set it up you can delete it after the tourney...but I believe you'll impede the progress of allotta matches if you do this.

So yeah just go download aim...and then I'll play ya.

(Brb just woke up eatin breakast)
