Looks interesting. I need to convince my only friend with a car to take us. =P

EDIT: Hurray, we are going! Expect three more to show up. Honestly, this will be our first REAL tournament. (Hosted several smalls one in my area, but no one is great here but my crew)

We need to know the rule specifics like stages allowed, and does the $5 cost cover everything or is that per tournament (meaning you must pay $10 to do singles and doubles)?

No one from Dallas is going to drive up to Utah to win a Wii. The gas money required to get there would cost way more than they could get by selling the Wii on eBay. Unless they managed to sell it for $1000.

Here's a link to tournament rules.(not sure if this is the exact rules that are being used, but they're close)

http://super-smash-bros.wikia.com/wiki/Tournament_legal_(SSBM)

At the last tournament it was 4 stock and 8 minutes(?) and the stage rules were pretty random with some sets being all on FD. -_-

btw Where do you guys live, if you guys live close by we could practice sometime?

Hey guys, greeat tourney ^.^ Infinity and Wobbles are too much... But I did really well otherwise (compared to melee1's dead last placing XD.) I think I top tend. When are they posting the results?

See you all in some doubles. Smashanomicon will be there to pwn.

And Lock, your Peach is really good, work on your fair timing and some glide toss to grab game, you'll be amazing ^.^

Stop beating me Wobbles!

:(:(:(



Srsly, thanks for all the congrats guys. I'll see you guys some time this week I'm sure, lol.

Props to DMK, Ice and Shaggy (you know who you are) for nearly beating me; super props to The Wob for not only for coming back out of the loser's bracket and winning the whole thing, but for coming back from a 2 game deficit in the first match against me to take the win.

As always this was another well run TxGamer's event and I'm looking forward to the next one. Do you still have any of those bumper stickers left? I'd be glad to advertise for you guys.

Fun event. Good times. Looks forward to more.

P.S. - No vids, this was the first of what I believe is planned to be a regular series, and it was kind of ad hoc. We'll make sure to extract some next time, there were some epic matches for sure.

were there any vids by chance?
Sorry, my support help had to go help his wife, So there was a few things I did not get to do and one of them was videos.. :( Next time though!

I'm so entering the FFA tournament. Those brackets must go by pretty quick.
We will see, should be fun..

There isn't going to be anymore Melee tournaments are there? :(
Yes, there will but I need to make sure we have enough systems to get tournaments run in a resonable time... So give me a few weeks to gauge things...

Just noticed the brawl brackets and..............

Mad props to Bwett, KG, and Shuz! Get top 5 next time!

Who did d4ba big bob use? He needs to stop beating me in melee. I don't need secret counters out of the mist.

I'd say this seems fair:

3 stock @ 7 minutes. Best of 3 for normal rounds, best of 5 for losers and winners finals, best of 7 for grand finals. Players may ban 1 stage of their choice at the beginning of the match.

Neutrals:
Battlefield
Final Destination
Smashville
Yoshi's Island

Counterpick:
Castle Siege
Delfino Plaza
Frigate Orpheon
Halberd
Luigi's Mansion
Lylat Cruise
Norfair
Pirate Ship
Skyworld
Brinstar (Melee)
Corneria (Melee)
Green Greens (Melee)
Pokemon Stadium (Melee)
Rainbow Cruise (Melee)
Yoshi's Island (Melee)

Ban the rest. There is often confusion about whether Shadow Moses is allowed, but the general consensus from the people I've played with is that it is banned.

Oh god. There's no reason ever to have a best of 7 set. For Brawl, best of 5 for grand finals and best of 3 for everything else like last time is the way to go. Brawl best of 3 sets are long enough not to warrant best of 5 for losers/winners finals, and unnecessary anyway since random Holy **** things just don't happen in Brawl, and so don't need to be accounted for with extended sets.

I put that there because more than one person has intuitively assumed it was best of 7 and that winners and losers finals were best of 5. I'm actually perfectly fine with best of 5, but I'm not one to fight intuition either.

Ask me some time about the Blockbuster tournament and "random holy **** things" happening and costing me a match, if you haven't already heard the story anyway.

You could try the strikeout method of choosing the first stage, where you start with an odd number of stages, then have each player strike a stage til you're down to 1, which you play on. Seems to be all the rage in some places. Though it is a little more complicated than the current system.
