EACH PLAYER IS STRONGLY ENCOURAGED TO BRING THEIR OWN CONTROLLERS TO THIS EVENT

Rules:

  1. 4 Stock
  2. 8 minute timer
  3. Double elimination brackets
  4. Best 2 out of 3
  5. Best 3 out of 5 in semifinals (winners and loser's finals)
  6. Best 4 out of 7 in finals
  7. No items
  8. No in-game coaching
  9. Maximum of one minute of coaching allowed between games


Stage Selection
  1. Both players will elect to ban a stage from the available selection of stages. If a stage that is banned is randomly selected, the game may be restarted before it starts.
  2. If both players can agree on a stage to play, that will be the stage played on the first round. Otherwise, the first stage will be selected at random from Pool A.
  3. If the match is doubles, Fountain of Dreams and Mute City are banned from the selection.
  4. Counterpicking is allowed from any stage in Pool A or Pool B. See Counterpicks for more details.
  5. No stage may be used twice in a single set.

Pool A
  • Final Destination
  • Battlefield
  • Dream Land
  • Fountain of Dreams (banned from Doubles play)
  • Yoshi's Story
  • Pokémon Stadium

Pool B
  • Mute City (banned from Doubles play)
  • Green Greens
  • Rainbow Cruise
  • Kongo Jungle
  • Brinstar
  • Poké Floats
  • Corneria
  • Jungle Japes

Counterpicking

Since each set is to be played best 2 out of 3, here are the following counterpick rules:
  1. The loser may select a stage from Pool A or Pool B, as long as it is not a stage that has been previously played on in the set or a stage that was banned by either player at the beginning of the set.
  2. The winner may select a new character.
  3. The loser may select a new character. The winner must select his or her character first.

Glitches/Stalling
  1. 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 unable to be finished are banned and will result in the immediate forfeit of the entire match, and possible disqualification from the entire tournament.
  2. Tactics such as Peach's Wall-bombing and Jigglypuff'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 dropping 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 and lose a life and continue the match short a stock.
  3. The use of Wobbles is BANNED.

Disqualification
  • An entrant may be disqualified from any match if they perform any action above that merits disqualification, or by exhibiting poor sportsmanship, as judged by our staff. In the event of disqualification, there will be no refunds.

Prize Structure
Note: Our prize structure has changed!

1st Place: 60% of the pot
2nd Place: 30% of the pot
3rd Place: 10% of the pot

1st place will also receive an official Planet X T-shirt

I would like to have someone design a logo for the Smashtacular series, if possible, and Smashtacular IV in particular. Something cool looking, that clearly mentions Smashtacular and the Planet X Game Center. Also, I would like it to be banner sized, within the size restrictions of signatures on this forum.

Your efforts would not go un-noticed, if your banner is selected to be the Official Smashtacular banner, you would receive some kind of compensation (Be it discounts, free entry, something. Gotta clear the details with my superiors.), in addition to being credited on our website and future Smashtacular posts.

EDIT: Ankoku wins

Do you think it'll be done by 7:30 (i don't remember when the last ones finished), cause if so, i could still make it to MGC that day. Anyone else interested (esp. those whom i normally smash with) PM me about it, and we'll work out carpooling. (it takes like 1 hr 20min to get there from PX, so we should be fine if we leave at 7:30).

EDIT: @ NoJ: When brawl comes out, we'll be hosting dual tourneys at our biweeklies (for SSBM, and SSBB).

EDIT 2: (Edit 3: deleted. )

Wow pwned.

I completely forgot that Farmer Jack bit the dust.

ST4 now?

And it should be well done by 7:30, scotu.

BTW, keep your eyes on the horizon, PX may be hosting something huge in regards to smash.

I'll be there, and I can bring a TV for sure, and almost certainly a cube.

EDIT: I like ST$ and/or ST4 better than TAC anything lol.

scotu, I think the 9PM SSBM start time was only for Detroit; the email told me that it's usually 8PM.

Just pointing that out, if you're still planning on hitting MGC after ST$.

Firebrand, Dude, you gotta try to make this thing start like an hour earlier! plz! Cause you have to register before 8PM at MGC, and it's 1hr 10min away from PX. Please? Pretty Please w/ Sugar on Top? I've gotta try to make that one, to capitalize on the day i'm already taking off work.

I'm not sure if i'd be goign to the mgc thing, but i agree with starting an hour earlier because the smashtaculars go on a bit too late for me to do much afterwards anyway (plus, i get really hungry and don't feel like leaving until after it's over).

Ok. It's officially a Motion Now. Gary, you've gotta get this one past your superiors. Please try your best (i'd hate to miss singles).

And if you moved it a week earlier, I'd actually be able to come, but that's something entirely different.
