That's right, the crew that never technically existed to begin with is hosting ANOTHER tourney in their hometown of Montclair, NJ on January 9th~

A big thing to mention is that we are going to need TVs and Wiis. It would be excellent if you could bring setups.

$1 off venue fee for Wii or TV supplied
Free entry if you bring both.

These both only apply to ONE person. Your entire group does not get in free for one full setup.

Bring extra money; pizza will be ordered, drinks will be for sale, and if we're lucky we may have other snacks as well. There's a huge selection of places to eat as well as many convenience stores and a few fast food places within twenty minutes max of the venue.

Signups start at 10:30; the tourney will start about an hour or an hour and a half after that, and the rest of the schedule will vary based on how long the events take, though we would like to start singles by 5:00.

Prices / Splits

Venue Fee: $3
Singles: $10 / person
Teams: $20 / team

Typical prize split used for winners.

Side tourney(s)!
Low Tiers (Only held if there's time): $5 / person

FOOD:
Pizza (Plain): $2/slice
Cans of Soda/Bottled Water: $1 each
Chips: $1 for two bags
Brownies (These are AMAZING): Either $1 for two, or $1 for one, depending on how large they're cut.

LOCATION

153 Gates Avenue
Montclair, NJ 07042
There are NUMEROUS ways to get to Montclair; Route 3, Route 46, and the GSP all have exits to / essentially to Montclair. As well, we have several buses including ones that go through Newark and NYC that stop in Montclair; the 66 DeCamp bus stops at the base of the venue's block.

Garden State Parkway: Exits 151, 152
Route 46: Valley Road / Grove Street exits.
Route 3: Grove Street
Buses: NJT: 28 - Newark / MSU (This is a bit far from the venue, if you use this let us know so we can try to get you picked up)
DeCamp 66 - NYC / West Orange (Get off on Orange Road and walk over to Gates and up the hill, other stops are fine but we'll have to pick you up)

Both buses stop in front of the high school, so if you think you'll have issues with remembering other stops that's a fairly central and easy-to-find location.

For more specific directions, PM me / use one of the many map sites on the internet.

RULES

  • 3 stocks
  • 8 minute timer
  • No items
  • Team Attack on
  • Stock Sharing allowed

- No excessive stalling or 'planking.' If you feel you are being planked please contact a judge MID-MATCH. Any other complaints after the fact will be ignored.
- Enter your name tags and controls before a match begins. You may not quit mid-match to enter controls.
- Standing infinites, such as Dedede's standing chain-grab, are banned. Using IDC to excessively stall a match is banned, but the AT itself is not.

Standard Stage Strike and Counterpick System:

  • If necessary, players may request a double-blind.
  • Before the first match each player, according to seed, will alternate removing a neutral from selection. The last one remaining will be the first stage. Players may also ban a stage at this time
  • After the first match, the losing player selects a stage, the winning player selects a character, and then the losing player selects a character.
  • In the event that the set goes to the third round, repeat the above step.
  • Dave's Modified Stupid Rule: No stage may be used twice in a single set if the player choosing already won on that stage.
  • Ties will be broken by lives, then percentage. In the event of a percentage tie, an additional one stock match will be played.

You may not select a level that you have already won on in the set. You may select the stage played previously given that you did not win on it.

Stage List:
Neutrals:
Final Destination
Battlefield
Smashville
Yoshi's Island: Brawl
Lylat Cruise

Counterpicks:
Pokemon Stadium 1
Battleship Halberd
Castle Siege
Delfino Plaza
Brinstar
Frigate Orpheon
Rainbow Cruise

Any stage not on this list is BANNED and not available for play, unless both people agree to play on that stage.

PLEASE NOTE THAT RAINBOW CRUISE WAS UNBANNED BECAUSE OF POUND. PLANK, IF YOU READ THIS, KNOW THAT I HATE YOU WITH THE FURY OF A THOUSAND SUNS.

Hope to see you all tomorrow.

Make it the 21st, no events. And CO18 is looking for an event to attend on the 21st in the NY/NJ area.

It's not going to be this month; it's either in December or January. The venue host isn't back from college until then.

Daisho, the venue is in Montclair.

Don't supposed you could hold a side event could you? :grin:
If you're asking for B+...

Well, I have no idea. Attendance was mid-ish levels last time so we might be able to.

Man, why is the only good date in January we have the week before Pound?! I can't see many people enthusastic to spend money the week before...

I know money is tight for you atm. How are you affording trips to Hobo instead of going to locals?
Any extra money I have is devoted to seeing Diana.

Also, I typically make some cash at HOBOs.

I'm teaming with Dphat in normal doubles and Xyro in low tier doubles at HOBO 22. THAT'S MONEY IN THE BANK ALREADY, ***!

Didn't you guys fail before? Atomsk is aggressive and you're Lucario... Doesn't work. :(
We didn't fail...... We got second in MD/VA but only because Atomsk went d3 first round against Boss and PS and I went Ness second round. After we decided to do MK and Lucario, we won the next 2 games but couldnt bring it back all the way.

Getting less than 1st in MD/VA in doubles is pretty fail for Atomsk. :(

GL if you guys do team. Tell Atomsk to use MK and camp.

If SoVA decides to come can we get housing? It would be for me, kadaj, and famous. If we can get that I feel like travelling so thats +3. I can only give my word, but we're all good house guests.
