Atomsk and I have no intentions on going to Cataclysm for the amateur brackets since we're already in the pro brackets. I'm pretty sure most of NJ and PA aren't even going at all.

I'm going to hold a random small tournament on Saturday so there's something to do.

3499 Rt 1 South
Princeton, NJ 08540
Clarion Hotel: The Palmer Inn
Room 142, probably getting a second room for it.

Sign-ups: 12:00pm
Starting time: 1:00pm

Venue fee: $3
Singles: $10
Teams: $10 per team
Draft Crews: 1$

For every Wii and TV you bring that we use, $1 is reduced from your venue fee.

Singles:
1st: 60%
2nd: 30%
3rd: 10%

Teams:
1st: 70%
2nd: 30%
3rd: Entry fees back.

Rules:
* Matches will be THREE (3) Stock, seven minute time limit.
* Double Elimination. All matches will be 2/3, with all finals being 3/5.
* The bracket will be seeded by crews/region.
* Items will be off.
* Life stealing is allowed in teams.
* Smashballs will be OFF.
* Advanced Slob picks: First match is a blind pick, where the competitors will tell their character to a judge, and then proceed. The loser of the first match will then pick the next stage, then the winner may choose his character. After, the loser will choose his character and begin. The same will happen for the third match, if forced.
* -Dave's Stupid Rule Modified will be in effect. The same stage can not be played twice in a row in a single set.
* The Mage's DQ rule is also in effect:
2 Minutes Late: Warning/Loss of first stock
4 Minutes Late: Loss of first match of set
6 Minutes Late: Loss of set
* Any attempt at lame tactics will result in a warning. Any further attempt at lame tactics will result in forfeit.
These tactics include, but are not limited to:
-Stalling under a stage.
-Running away to run the time limit. (Excessively. If there's 30 seconds, and you bail, that's one thing. But if you waste 5 minutes, or be a jerk about it, we're stopping the match. It's at the judge's discretion.)


Stages:

Neutral:
* Final Destination
* Battlefield
* Yoshi's Story
* Smashville
* Lylat

Stages for Counterpick:
* Delfino Plaza
* Frigate Orpheon
* Battleship Halberd
* Castle Siege
* Rainbow Cruise
* Brinstar
* Pokemon Stadium 1

NOTE: You may play any banned stage as long as both you, and your opponent agree and ask a judge! If you agree, there will be no complaints!!!!!!!!

You can contact me on AIM at Sesshomaru010101 or by cell phone 732-829-1805 if you need to.


DO NOT BRING WENDY'S TO THE VENUE. IF YOU DO, YOU WILL BE FORCED TO EITHER PAY AN EXTRA $1 TOWARDS THE HOUSE FEE OR LEAVE. I'M DEAD SERIOUS. I DO NOT WANT TO SMELL GREASE ALL DAY AND EVERYONE ALWAYS LEAVES A BIG MESS TO CLEAN UP.

HOLD IT!

The venue fee increased from $2 --> $4 because of the Blue Battle Circuit. Don't be gay and raise it to $3.
$3 is now my normal fee, if you haven't noticed. Don't like it, then bring set-ups to have it reduced or don't show up so I can win more money. :D

I raised it because I pay Magus to help out, and he helps a lot.

You always win money at this stuff, so don't complain too much.

I knew it, this is the beginning of the end. 2 years from now the venue fee at these tournaments is going to be $20. Everyone, protest NOW before that has a chance to happen!

I have no plans of ever going above $5.

I'd probably charge $5 at a huge national event, but never go higher than that for anything since the rooms don't cost me anything but my own time and work.

$3 will probably remain the standard for smaller tournaments and the Garden Room ones.

I'm probably hosting a large scale event soon, btw. Details are secret for now.

CLEARLY this is all true. You OBVIOUSLY didn't raise the house fee numerous times already ;)

It was $2 at first and only $3 now after almost a year. What's your problem?
I have numerous problems.

1) Hey remember these?

http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=63844
http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=67712

It was $0 at first not $2.

2) A little more than 6 months is nowhere near almost a year.
3) You said you were collecting house fee because everyone leaves Wendy's and you have to clean up the rooms and shift furniture but the last BBC event I was at Magus did 99% of the cleaning up while you sat on your laptop.
4) I never was in favor of you adding the house fee from the very beginning.
5) It's ME are you really fawken serious asking what my problem is about spending money?

I'm probably not coming to this anymore though so it doesn't bother me much.

2006? :laugh:

Sorry, I grew a brain since then.

Magus also gets the biggest cut of the house fee and you weren't around during the setting up the rooms.

And you being in favour or not matters...why? It doesn't. If you hate paying a small house fee so much, don't show up. My house fee is still way lower than any game store or business would charge you.

If you really didn't want to pay the house fee, you'd supply a set-up. You complain about it more than anyone else on the boards despite being in the tiny minority of players that profits consistently from tournaments. Bring a set-up to have it waived if you care so much.

I'm probably not coming to this anymore though so it doesn't bother me much.
Why not?

What's wrong with Wendy's?

10% discount FTW. B)
It involves me spending money, which is also why I have to come at like 1-2 so I can eat lunch before I come.
