I am going to post this in the first post but just to let people know I changed the payout to help others so here goes v 1.0
Tournament Prices
Price - $5 Venue Fee
Price - $5 per person for 1v1
Price - $5 per person for 2v2
Prizes
1v1 + 2v2
Since these will be monthlies, I am adding a better incentive for these events. Based on turnout I will be paying up to 4th-5th places.
So for example if 30 or less attend it will be
1st – 65%
2nd – 25 %
3rd – 10%
If 40 – 50 attend it will be more like this
1st – 60%
2nd - 20%
3rd – 15%
4th – 5%
If 60 and over attend it will be
1st – 50%
2nd – 20
3rd – 15%
4th – 10%
5th – 5%

In the event of a TIE at the end of the time limit, the player with the most stocks wins. If both players have ONE STOCK the players will quit the SUDDEN DEATH, set the stock to one, and start a match with stage being the same as where they had the tie. This will determine the winner.
Each Round is best of three matches; Grand/Losers/Winners Finals are best of five matches*
Singles seeding will be random with some courtesy to crews – you will be spaced evenly as to prevent playing each other in the first round. One of the two criteria must be fulfilled in ordered to be favored. You MUST have 3 or more people in a group hailing from the same region, or you must be part of a crew. Teams seeding will be done randomly.
In case more than 64 people come, Singles seedings will be determined by pools – each player will be assigned to a pool, and each pool will play 2 Three (3) stock matches in a round robin. If a player wins a match, he must inform an official of how much stock he had remaining. Players will continue to play with each other until each player has played all of the other players in the pool twice. The lowest ranking players will be cut off from each pool, so much so until it meets the conditions of a 64-man bracket. All stages for pools are picked randomly, and all character selections will be double blind pick – both players must whisper their character choices for that match to an official, and then immediately select those characters afterwards.
