Hello Everyone,


Our March Event was a TON of fun, although there was only just under 20 people for singles there were some GREAT matches, and I think everyone had a really good time. We had 12 teams come out too. Next month we expect more people, and we are going to have more setups too.

We are looking at having the event on:

Sat April 25th 2009
@ The Spawn Point
1608 N Main Ave Scranton PA 18509


Rules

Brawl Rules:

3 stock

8 minute timer

Items are set to 'off' and 'none'

All sets are best of three, except winners finals, losers finals, and grand
finals sets, which are best of 5

No player may choose a stage they have already won on in that set unless
agreed upon.


If the timer runs out, the victor is determined first by stock and then by
percentage.

Metaknight's Infinite Cape glitch is banned. That means this can't even be
used to avoid invincibility at the beginning of the stock (to avoid
confusion).

DDD's standing chaingrabs are banned. DDD MUST do a dash inbetween chaingrabs

No player may stall a match using any technique which makes them invincable or makes it so the opponent must put themself in danger to peruse the staller for an extended period of time, if a player feels thier opponent is stalling the match they can call over a judge. If the judge rules they are stalling they will receive a warning, if it happens again that player will loose the match. Come on guys we are here to compete and have fun not use stupids techniques that make matches boring.

and lol at nick not including hananbow this time. thanks for sticking to your promise nick!!
LOL! YES!

I should hopefully make it out to this tournament too. I always seem to do really well in friendlies, and just start to crack under pressure once the brackets start...I need to step it up, too slow.

I will be there for this.

If you have a brawl low tier tourney, then I gotta bust out the best ivysaur in the western hemisphere. And maybe squirtle and charizard

Definitely Sonic

But will you have enough time for this?

Dtilt locking u across the stage
most low tier tourneys start from Mario and work there way down from there.. which includes Lucas.. and that means i'll be playing in it. :) which also means i'm taking that tourney if i come to this :)

and $5 sounds perfect for low tiers.

Hmm...I don't really know of any hotels in this area, LOL
I remember one not being to far off from my house but...I can't remember the name of it, lmao, sorry.


Oh, and if Lawz, Nasty, and I don't make top 3 for Low Tier, I'm going to be deeply dissapointed.
