Games with entry fee information:
Brawl - $10 entry fee

Tournament format:
If less than 32 show up, the format is double elimination. If over 32 people show up, we go to pools.
How the pools work.
1. Everyone on the bracket will be randomly assigned a number from one to four(for 32-64 players) or eight(over 64 players).
If 32-64 people show up, the pools will be double elimination and will work through the bracket until the final four in each pool's bracket. At that point, the remaining players will be put into a 16 man, double elimination, bracket to determine the champion. Any losses from the pools will carry over into the final bracket(and you will be seeded manually to reflect that).
For Over 64 players, the pools will be single elimination and will work through the bracket until the final two in each pool's bracket. At that point, the remaining players will be put into a 16 man, double elimination bracket to determine the champion. Want to be able to lose twice? Earn the right.
Rules:
General Rules:
1. Prizes for each game will be distributed immediately following the tournament at hand.
2. A match for all tournaments are best 2 out of 3 games(unless specified).
3. I am all for casuals, but you must register BEFORE you play.
4. Any grievous misconduct will result in you being removed from the premises without a refund and any prize money that is won surrendered. This includes, but not limited to, drinking, smoking(in building), gambling on matches(unless it is an officially sanctioned Money Match and only then it will be between the participants involved), and disrespecting and arguing with staff(for both The Classic and the venue).
5. Hardware macros are strictly prohibited. You may only use the macros that are available in the in-screen configuration menu.
6. An accidental pause of the game may result in forfeiture of the game at the judge’s digression.
7. You must bring your own controller for any console that the game is played on. Converters may or may not be offered for any console that requires them(ie: PS2 to DC and PS2 to PS3. If you wish to play pad, you MUST use the console default, or an officially licensed controller(usb cables must be used on PS3 controllers). Even though Wii will be used for Smash, You MUST use Gamecube controllers.
8. Wireless controllers are strictly forbidden. If you bring one, it will be seized by the tournament director and a corded controller will be provided in its place. Return of the controller will happen if you return the controller that was provided. Wavebirds are not exempt from this rule.
9. There is zero tolerance for theft. If caught stealing, a police report will be filed with the proper authorities, and will be prosecuted to the maximum extent of the law.
10. Double Blind selection may be called by the judge for any reason and any game may be replayed at the tournament director’s digression, even if it was the last game in a match.
11. Equipment failures are subject to a three person panel that will consist of the Tournament Director, the head judge, and one person deemed an expert in the game at hand, using EVO standards as a guideline. If the equipment failure was reported by a player, and the panel ruled against him, the match is forfeited. Judges can report equipment failures on behalf of the player. If the panel rules for the player, the equipment is ordered to be replaced with a padded controller and the match is ordered to be replayed with the same characters and settings. Regardless of what the panel rules, if the judge convenes the panel for the player, the match is ordered to be replayed with the same characters and settings.
12. Rules violations must be reported the instant the violation is made(within reasonable standards). The Classic will use the yellow card system when issuing rule violation penalties(Yellow card will forfeit the match and a red card will disqualify you). If a player falsely(or ignorantly) reports a rule violation, then they will be issued a yellow card. You will have a clean slate for each tournament.
13. You can not refuse to be recorded if you paid money to enter an event.

Stalling- The act of deliberately avoiding any and all conflict so that the one would make the game unplayable.

You are responsible for knowing your own character, and must be wary about accidentally triggering one of these effects.
