Announcing
Starstruck
A Project M Netplay "Major" Tournament
In light of the one year anniversary of the netplay group it is my greatest honour to announce "Starstruck", a Project M "major" netplay tournament that will run over the course of a week, similar to how it did when the group first started. The rules are as follows:
Standard Netplay Rules
- Use Mr. Game & Watch's Judgement to determine who bans first. (player with the higher number wins)
- If you cannot maintain an acceptably stable ping under the very maximum of a 5 buffer you will lose the set. (This is under the discretion of both players and the leader of the pool however, as long as you get the set done by the end I don't mind)
- If the game desyncs, crashes or any other major disturbance happens the game (not the set) will be replayed from the beginning.
Tournament Rules
- Signups will start from Today (Tuesday 5th of May) and finish at 8pm on Sunday the 10th of May.
- At the end of signups, each person will be placed into pools and seeded accordingly with a "leader" designated to each pool to report to an admin with results when they occur. I will periodically check up on the progress of each pool throughout the week.
- Throughout the course of the week I expect that all players will prioritize their tournament matches before any friendlies and always attempt to contact members of their group when they come online to play. I encourage each pool to create a mini Skype group for the sake of organisation and ease of play.
- On Saturday 16th of May at 5pm all pool progress will finish and any unfinished matches will be ignored and the highest placing members in each pool will be placed into a bracket (amount from each pool will be decided based on the amount of entrants) This bracket will run on Saturday night and Saturday night only.
1st Place: $15 Eshop Card
2nd Place: $10 Eshop Card
3rd Place: $5 Eshop Card
(In the event I place within the top three I'll skip myself and it'll go the next person)
I hope you all get hyped for this and play as well as you can! I encourage everyone to enter, even if you don't play netplay as frequently as you used to, give it a go! Credit for the tournament name goes to Tyler
Keep in mind that you will probably only have to play 4 or so sets over the course of the week so lack of time probably won't be a problem; as long as you get your sets over by next Saturday.
SIGNUPS ARE HERE (Unfortunately you need a Challonge Account)
(Alternatively you can just message me or one of the other admins and we'll add you to it)
