Be at Duquesne's NiteSpot sometime after 2 tommorrow. We will play until whenever. Correct me if I'm wrong, but we have 3 Wiis (Duquesne's, Matt's, and ?) and 3 sets of cables (Matt, Tim, Kevin).

If anybody does not know where the NiteSpot is, simply ask anyone on Duquesne's campus. I trust that everyone can at least find Duquesne.

Anybody bringing filming equipment?

On a side note, I don't want to hear any johns tommorrow.

OFFICIAL INFORMATION FOR TOMORROW (AS OF 9:56PM THURSDAY)


Taki will be at the Nitespot at 12pm with one setup. I will be arriving with a second set up at 3. Tim, I believe this is what he said tonight, will be there around 4 with the third setup. We already 3 Wiis and 3 component cables, but anyone is more than welcome to bring a fourth setup (Wii and Component Cables). It will conclude probably sometime around whenever it is getting ready to wrap up or end.


I hope to see everyone who is anyone there tomorrow, be there or be quartic.

hey i dunno like where u guys went in ohio the few times that u did, but i saw this thing in cleveland on the 18th that looked inviting. I dont have a car or anything so I guess i shouldnt be talkin about what looks inviting or not, but i would like to hit up ohio (whereever in ohio y'all went) @ some point after komos and/or b4 mows


@taki
ive looked @ that set so many times because I think thats fox @ his best. like i tihnk fox played like that is way more effective. less attacking and more opportunization.

is the nitespot gonna be closed on monday because of the holiday?

if so then where we trying to play on monday?

daabaru postu!
I'm going to go with the Nitespot is closed tomorrow because school is closed and thats how it works. Although the Commuter Lounge will be open and probably have no one in it. I'm not sure when I'm going back tomorrow though, but I'll try and post to let you know Tim if Rob and I available to play tomorrow and when if anyone. I'm not sure about Taki though but I'm sure if he sees this or someone contacts him he would be willing to play also.

Rules
Team attack ON
Life stealing is allowed

In the event of a tie at the end of the time limit, the player with the most stocks wins, otherwise the player with the lowest percentage wins. If both Players have the same percentage, the players will quit the SUDDEN DEATH, set the stock to one, and start a match with stage being the same as where they had the tie. this determines winner.

Each Round is best of three matches; Finals are best of five matches

Singles seeding will be random with some courtesy to crews – you will be spaced evenly as to prevent playing each other in the first round. One of the two criteria must be fulfilled in ordered to be favored. You MUST have 3 or more people in a group hailing from the same region, or you must be part of a crew. Teams seeding will be done randomly.

In case more than 64 people come, Singles seedlings will be determined by pools – each player will be assigned to a pool, and each pool will play 2 Three (3) stock matches in a round robin. If a player wins a match, he must inform an official of how much stock he had remaining. Players will continue to play with each other until each player has played all of the other players in the pool twice. The lowest ranking players will be cut off from each pool, so much so until it meets the conditions of a 64-man bracket. All stages for pools are picked randomly, and all character selections will be double blind pick – both players must whisper their character choices for that match to an official, and then immediately select those characters afterwards.

Random Stages for Singles: Final Destination, Battlefield, Fountain of Dreams, Dreamland 64, Pokémon Stadium, Yoshi’s Story

Random Stages for Doubles: Final Destination, Battlefield, Dreamland 64, Pokémon Stadium
Stages Banned: Hyrule Temple, Fourside, Flatzone, Brinstar Depths, Icicle Mountain, Big Blue, Terminal Bay and Yoshi’s Island 64

Dave’s Stupid Rule Modified – The same stage cannot be played twice in a row during a set

Stage Strike Rule – Each player/team can choose 1 stage to remove from random select AFTER all players have selected their characters. Players may change their stage strike for each succeeding game PRIOR to a stage being chosen. (DO NOT ACTUALLY REMOVE THE STAGES FROM THE RANDOM STAGES LIST)

For the First round in a set, character selection for the round will be double blind pick (unless the players don't care). The stage select for the first match will be chosen by random select or may be agreed upon by the players. Random select will be used if there is any disagreement on stage selection.

For the next round, players first may choose to change their stage strike, and then the losing player from the previous match must announce their choice for the next level or elect to have the next level selected at random. Once the stage selection has been announced, the winning player may choose to change their character. Once the winning player has chosen his character for the next match, the losing player may then choose to change characters. After the stage and characters have been set, the players play their second match. All succeeding matches are played in the same manner.
