General Melee Rules

* By popular demand, we will be doing pools to begin and 1st and 2nd seed of each pool will proceed to a double elimination bracket. Placement is determined by number of matches won, then least number of matches lost, and ties will be broken by a 2 out of 3 set between the tied parties.
* Items are set to off.
* Stock and Time are set to 4 stock and 8 minutes respectively.
* Regular sets are best of 3 matches.
* The Tournament Host is the arbiter of all disputes.
* Blind Picks: the first character selection of a set must be without prior knowledge of the opponent's character selection for both players.
* Modified Dave's Stupid Rule: No player can counter pick a stage he or she has previously won on unless agreed upon by both players.
* Gentleman's clause: any stage may be played on so long as both players and the Tournament Host agree to it, including banned stages. This can be used in tandem with the Modified Dave's Stupid Rule (MDSR).
* Timed out matches will be determined by the remaining number of lives, then percentage of the current stock. In the event of a percentage tie, replay that match. Any Sudden Death match is strictly not to be played.
*Wobbling is not banned.
*The tournament host (me) reserves the right to ban any player who engages in excessive stalling such as, but not limited to, jigglypuff's rising pound stall, ice climber's freeze glitch, peach's wallbomber, etc. Some of these tactics MAY be used to buy time, for example sheik shino stalling to stay safe for a bit and come up with a strategy or peach floating out of reach to avoid someone, but if these tactics are used for the express purpose of excessively prolonging a match, and I witness it taking place, I may disqualify you, so be warned. The tournament host reserves the right to be the final arbiter on this issue.

Additional Rules for Teams Play

* Life Stealing is allowed
* Set team attack to ON


Redwood Counter Pick System

1. Blind Picks character selection.
2. Stage Striking: Players eliminate stages from the Starter Stage List until only 1 remains, and the players then play the first match on that stage. Players strike stages in 1 2 2 1 order.
3. The first match is played.
4. Winning player of the preceding match bans a stage.
5. The losing player of preceding match picks stage for the next match.
6. The winning player of preceding match picks character.
7. The losing player picks character.
8. The next match is played.
9. Repeat 4-8 for all consecutive matches as necessary until the set is complete.

Grand Finals, loser's finals, and winner's finals will be best out of 5. semi-finals will be best out of 3 cuz I have a feeling we'll be more pressed for time due to the epicness of events taking place.

Post here if you plan to attend or are bringing a setup.
Oh yeah and if you wanna MM me, let me know.

PS: We WILL be doing crews afterward. And you WILL participate. :mad: :bee:
and if I forgot/left anything out, let me know.

Setups:
1. Dantefox

Here are the rules for the brawl tournament:


I know this a double post. Don't sweat. Placeholder for Brawl rules for the AiB topic. Might be subject to small changes.

Not a rule, but if you can, BRING YOUR OWN CONTROLLER AND KEEP TRACK OF IT.

Cost:
Singles: $1
Doubles: $2 ($1 per person)

Pot Distribution

Singles (60%, 30%, 10%)
Doubles (60%, 30%, 10%)

Metaknight banned!
3 Stock
8 minute timer
Items are set to "off" and "none"
• If the timer runs out, the victor is determined first by stock and then by percentage.
• Resolving Ties: If percents are the same or both players die simultaneously, there will be a 1 stock, 3 minute, same characters, same stage rematch.
• All sets with the exception of winner's finals, loser's finals, and the championship are best of 3 matches (best of 5 and above should be played out for any "finals" matches)
• In the event of a dispute, controller ports will be selected by Rock-Paper-Scissors.
• You are responsible for your own controller and name tag. Any malfunctions or errors that occur are your responsibility, so bring an extra controller if possible and always check to make sure you're using the correct settings BEFORE a match is played. If a match is to be restarted due to controller functions, it must be agreed upon by both parties.
• Stalling is banned.
Stalling: The act of deliberately avoiding any and all conflict so that one may make the game unplayable. Running away from an opponent to reach a better position is not stalling, while using an infinite to run out the timer rather than to score a KO is. As such, any infinite chain-grabs, locks, etc. cannot exceed 300%.
• Some interactions (for example, a throw with a wind attack) can cause one character to become frozen until being hit. If this happens, the free character is expected to capitalize on this in a timely manner; a failure to do so is stalling.

you can get there as early as 10 am
Wrong.

will you guys have recording equipment?

hopefully SLO makes this. I've been hungry for a tournament / crew battle.
Ryan has recording equipment but he quit Melee for LoL so if Joe / Cape comes, he can borrow his recording equipment. Actually I am not sure if the recording equipment belongs to Cape or Ryan. Cape no longer lives with Ryan though.

John and David should make the rule set for Brawl and rule sets for both Melee and Brawl should be printed out like Andrew's tournament.

For the last 2 LPTs that you ran, I do not think anyone has MMed you. People are more likely to MM if you are someone whom they never played before.

This is coming from someone who has not attended a single A.S. Tech Meeting this quarter. I went to the meeting yesterday and they will not allow anyone to help set up nor be in the venue until 11 AM.

mewtwo's soulstunner glitch
This is only possible if items are on. We are not playing with items unless someone decides to split and turn on items for grand finals or something. Also is :peach: camping :ganondorf: on Kongo Jungle 64 considered stalling? Pink Shinobi did this to Rockcrock at Genesis and he did not get disqualified but it seems sketchy.

If you're using it to unnecessarily stall the match I'm gonna dq you if I see you do it.

Technically peach can pull items out so I'll leave the mewtwo thing there.

The only item that will work will be the red shell and :peach: cannot pull a red shell. How about if I am playing a campy :fox: like Jman's. Can I shino stall with :sheik: on the ledge like Amsah?

no because he was using it to make the fox approach. plus there are counters to that. I'm mainly talking about stuff like rising pound stall, peach wallbomber etc. stuff where the opponent can't do anything about it at all.

You never fought a laser camping :fox: using :peach: on Kongo Jungle 64 before have you? My brother and I tested this out and the :fox: can circle camp (similar to Hyrule Temple) the :peach: for 8 minutes and just deal damage with lasers.

If you and your brother tested it out then it must be true! If you prove it to me somehow then I'll ban that. If someone tries that out in tournament and you call me over as it's happening and I determine it to be unfair, I'll DQ that person.

will do my ******. i've been practicing quite a bit ;]

MRS you should seriously change your brawl team character to like snake or something
K. Also is your first legal name Andy or Andeh? Strain called you Andy but Mio called you Andeh in one of the TIO Tournament Results section on AiB. Also sometimes my PM Box is glitchy and people don't seem to respond to my PMs and I sent you an offline message on AIM asking your name. I was just wondering. :212:

I wished they still had the blue names for Tournament Organizers. I miss seeing your blue name. How many Melee set ups are we going to have? Is David Mendez bringing a set up?

I'll field this one - it's Andres, but he's a man of many names
Interesting. I wish I knew all of Andymosity's names. :c
