Additional Stage Rules

1. First Stage is chosen at random from the levels on the random list.
2. The loser of a match has the choice to select the next Stage as long as it's not on the banned list.
3. Only the loser of the previous match may change characters at the beginning of the next match.
4. After each game of a match, the player who lost the previous game may choose the stage for the next game or elect for it to be chosen randomly. After the stage has been selected, the winner of the previous game may change characters. After the winner has chosen their character, the loser of the previous game may change characters.
5.For the first game of a match, a player may call for a double-blind pick. This means that all participating players must tell a judge the character they will use for that game. Each player is required to use that character in the game.

Controllers
1. You are responsible for bringing your own controller.
2. Controller mods of ANY kind (short-hop mod, L-trigger mod, etc), except for cosmetic changes (paint job, different colored plastic), are banned. Tournament staff may randomly inspect any controller at their discretion. If you are caught using a banned controller you will be immediately disqualified from the tournament.
3. Turbo or programmed buttons of any kind are banned. You may use third party controllers or pads that have these features, but if you are suspected of using the banned features you will not be allowed to use that controller any longer.

Additional Rules

1. Any unnecessary pausing of the game will result in a forfeit of that single game.
2. Glitches used to stop your opponent from controlling their character or indefinitely freezing them (Mewtwo's Soul Stunner, the Ice Climber freeze glitch), or any glitch or trick that freezes the game or makes it in any way unfinishable are banned and will result in the immediate forfeit of the entire match.
3. Tactics such as Peach's Wallbombing and Jiggly's Rising Pound are allowed as methods of recovery or to maneuver around the stage. Using them (or any similar tactics) to excessively stall a match, such as droping below levels intentionally and stalling underneath, is banned. If by using one of these tactics, you have put your character in a place to lose a stock by ending the tactic, a judge may force you to stop the tactic and lose a stock.

Extra Information

1. Any additional Gamecubes (with Super Smash Bros Melee) and/or televisions will help out a lot. So if you can bring any of them, they would help us out a lot.
2. Super Smash Brothers Melee entry is $5 per person and $10 per team.

So this will probably just become a smashfest since tofu the only person bringing people plus jtb and gimpy plus fabi. I guess we could do singles for fun.

Tofu, what time you guys plan to be here cuz I havent even set up yet and no point in setting up so early lol

he posted it cause a fair amount of people were looking for a place to smash for memorial day.

said people flopped.

the only consistent people at this point seems to be me and tofu / whoever he brings. people all talk and no walk

Im thinking about picking up brawl I guess. I was hoping people would still support melee.
Nah, nevermind. Id rather play nothing at all.
i was thinking the same thing this past weekend
not to say im dropping melee, but i don't feel like calling off work for a tourny
instead, i'd prefer to attend a tourny when i don't have work
im still all brawl...until i get a wii >=]

I don't like video games. Smash is the only game I play and am interested in playing.

There are like once in a generation exceptions to this (GTA IV, MGS4).
