Address for Google Maps:
706 Riverside Lane
Tuscaloosa, AL 35401
that's a relatively new street, and I'm pretty sure google doesn't have it. So Use this one.
140 Hackberry Lane
Tuscaloosa, AL 35401
which is Rose Towers, right across the street, when you get there, just give me a call and I can help you out.
For those that are coming from out of town, this map might help. The address is listed in the event info for Google Maps purposes, but really all you need to do is go I-20 West if your coming from/through GA/B'ham, or I-20 East if you're coming from/through Mississppi. and get off on Exit 73/Mcfarland Blvd--turn right (if you're coming from b'ham---left if you're coming from Mississippi) onto Mcfarland, and go straight for a mile or two, until you reach the Jack Warner Pkwy Exit. (you will pass the University Blvd and Campus Dr. exits)...the Jack Warner exit is a deep curve that splits into two, you want to take the curve on the right-hand side...then you will be at the upper-right hand area of the map I've provided above. Follow the purple line. Turn onto hackberry lane, it is at a stop light.. After that take the first left, you will see Rose Towers to your left (building 204 on the map). Riverside is to your right...and the building the tournament is being held at (the yellow dot with the black X/building 141) is behind the building that you initially see on the right when you turn in. The purple circles are the ideal parking places. On weekends, you won't get ticketed unless you park in a spot that isn't a real parking spot (like in the grass), or in a handicapped spot. Also avoid faculty (green) spots, i'm not sure if they ticket you for parking there, but to be on the safe side, try to avoid them. Use the map to find the building, if you need help, call me (Kevin) at 205-422-0916
Registration begins at 10 A.M. and the tournament begins at 11 A.M. CENTRAL TIME and is slated to end at 11 P.M. I will probably be there around 9 A.M., so feel free to show up early and get some practice in.
Melee Doubles, followed by Melee Singles. Then Brawl Doubles followed by Brawl Singles. No Swiss Rounds or Pools, sorry. I have twelve hours to get this done so this is going to require a lot of cooperation and a lot of set ups. I will probably start a tourney during the final rounds of the previous tourney to save time.
IF YOU BRING A FULL SET UP: meaning, you bring a TV, a wii/gamecube and a game (Brawl or Melee). You will get 5 dollars off your entry fee to the one of the tournaments OF THE GAME YOU BROUGHT. Meaning if you bring a wii, a tv, a brawl, you can get 5 dollars off of a Brawl tournament (either doubles or singles). If you bring a wii, a tv, and melee. You can get 5 dollars off of a Melee tournament. If you bring a wii and TV and both games, you may choose which tournament to apply the discount too.
Entrance fee for all tournaments : $10 for singles, and $10 per person for doubles.
Meaning if you want to enter all four tournaments (Melee double, melee singles, Brawl Doubles, and Brawl Singles) You will need $40.)
Each tournament will be double elimination, with random seeds, although I will do my best to try to keep you from facing your friends in the first round, and if I've heard of you and know that you're a good player I will try my best to seed you properly.
PRIZES (Melee and Brawl) :
Singles: 1st 60%, 2nd 25%, 3rd 15% of the prize pool.
Doubles: 1st 60%, 2nd 25%, 3rd 15% of the prize pool.
To clarify, this means that if 50 people enter singles (and there is a $10 dollar entry fee) there will be a $500 prize pool (50*$10) which means first place would get $300 (60% of the original $500)

Additional Info for Both Games:
BYOC: (BRING. YOUR. OWN. CONTROLLER. I will not provide ANY controllers whatsoever. It's up to you to find one to use. We will not wait all day for you to find one, either.)
You may use any controller you like (wiimote, wii/chuck/gamecube/classic). Please note, however, if you have any controller issues whatsoever, you either find a new controller in 5 minutes or less or forfeit your match. In Brawl, you may map your controls anyway you like.
Money matches, friendlies, etc. will be happening whenever one can be squeezed in. However, please do not slow down the pace of the tourney due to friendlies, if you are asked to relinquish your TV for a tourney match, please do so. Money matches are excusable (but please, be smart about the timing and choice of when), but friendly matches will forfeit if a tourney or money match needs the setup. This isn't being rude, just common sense. Match tier list is: tourney > money > friendly. Respect the tier!
In the case of a Wii/TV malfunction, the game will be restarted from the beginning, no matter what time it crashed, unless both opponents can agree on a starting point.
All decisions made by tournament officials are final. I will designate the tournament officials at the event.
Don't do dumb **** like the Freeze Glitch, and don't do dumb **** like pick Sonic and stall under the stage for seven minutes. You'll be Disqualified for being a douchebag.
The only controller mod allowed is the removal of the springs in your L and/or R triggers. Every other control mod is banned, and you will be DQ'd if caught using one. Mods that are purely cosmetic/aesthetic are allowed, such as paintjobs/lights. Turbo buttons are banned. You may use controllers that have this function, but you are not allowed to use the turbo. If you're caught you'll be DQ'd yadda yadda.
Again, BRING SET UPS. Even if you can't bring a full set up, BRING SOMETHING, whether it is a TV, a console or a game. Last tournament we had more set ups than we needed, which was great, but this time, we are going to need EVERY SET UP POSSIBLE.
I will also be taking up an OPTIONAL $5 Pizza fund so we can get some foodstuffs going on.
SETUPS (I would like to have ten or more lol ambitious I know, but remember you get a discount if you bring a full set up):
total POSSIBLE set ups so far: 8 (NEED MOARRR)
3GOD: 1 FULL MELEE SET UP, 1 FULL BRAWL SET UP

shai: 1 FULL MELEE SET UP
