Rules:

Double Elimination
Game Settings: 2 Stock, 6 Minute Time Limit, Items Off, Equipment Off
2/3 Games, 3/5 for Semis and Finals
Custom moves OFF
Miis are legal limited to 1111. Only console-default Miis are allowed (A-F Standard Size)

Starter Stages:
● Battlefield (or Miiverse as an alternative)
● Final Destination
● Smashville

Counterpick Stages:
● Umbra Clock Tower
● Dreamland
● Town & City
● Duck Hunt
● Lylat Cruise
● Any stage in Omega form

Stage Striking: The winner of a RPS match chooses which player will strike first one stage from the Starter Stage list. Then the other player strikes one more and the remaining stage is used for the first match. (1-1)

Stage Bans: During the stage ban phase, the player who won the previous game may ban 1 stage from either the Starter or Counterpick lists. A player cannot have more than one ban phase during a set.

The losing player then chooses from the remaining stages, and the winner chooses a character for the next game before the loser chooses their own

NOTE: Banning Final Destination also bans ALL Omega Stages, and banning any non-Omega Stage also bans its Omega form (i.e. banning Battlefield also bans Omega Battlefield)

Gentleman's Clause: Any stage may be played at any time if both players agree to it

Legal Controllers: YOU MUST BRING YOUR OWN CONTROLLER. Gamecube controllers, Wii U Pro controllers, Wii Remotes and Nunchucks/Classic controllers, and 3DS systems are all legal peripherals. Gamepads are not allowed. If you are using a wireless controller, you MUST disconnect it immediately after your sets. Failure to do so more than once will result in immediate disqualification from your current bracket

Self-Destruct Moves: If a match is sent to sudden death with the successful use of a character’s self-destruct move, the player that initiated the self destruct move wins the match. Self-destruct moves include only Ganondorf’s Side-B, King Dedede’s Neutral-B, Wario’s Neutral-B, and Kirby’s Neutral-B.

Mid-game coaching is not allowed and may result in a disqualification

Parts of this event, including but not limited to: audio and video of the attendants inside the venue, will be broadcasted on the internet via twitch and uploaded to YouTube. By attending this event, all parties agree to allow their likeness to appear in any of this media

I figured as much bc the facebook group says tourneys are 1st and 3rd saturdays, which were the customs-off days :p

Any changes to the stagelist? Delfino, Castle Siege, and Halberd are notably missing, (which I understand completely if that remains a thing) and you have three starters instead of five. (the three plus T&C and either DL or Lylat)

Yup that's the only difference. Although now we're allowing Mii specials after polling the community

Is there going to be an event this Saturday on the 13th? Also does it take place in the physical therapy building?

Yes there was, and there will be next Saturday as well. It's no longer a PT building
