So, my roommates and I want to throw a tournament similar (in size) to the Norcal tournament that just happened last week. I hope Battlecow and his herd will be down, but will anyone else be interested?
DETAILS:
Date: Saturday, July 21st at 1pm (roughly)
Address: 709 W Green St, Apartment B14, Urbana, IL, 61801
Parking: Look at this map:

You can park anywhere east of Lincoln Ave for free on weekends. The best parking spots would be on Green St, High St, Busey Ave, and Coler Ave.
Contact Info:
You can just send me a PM, or if you really want to, here's my number: 847-452-1445
My name is Mark.
Housing:
If it's necessary, we can probably house a few people. We have a spare room with a bed, three couches, and plenty of floor space for the plebeian scrubs.
Setups (as of July 5th):
2 CRT TVs
3 N64s
1 recording setup
1 setup from Battlecow
1 setup (with recording) from KnitePhox
Event details:
It'll probably just be a regular smashfest with a bunch of friendlies (and if Battlecow's going, thousands of MMs). However, we could have a small $5-$10 entry tourney if we get enough people interested.
I was also thinking we could do an Urbana-Champaign vs Chicago (or not Urbana-Champaign) crew battle lol. That'd be hilarious.
Tourney rules:

I'd like to emphasize the rules on pausing because these are also the house rules:
Pausing is discouraged, and should only be done at the end of a stock, if at all. At other times, the pauser loses their current stock. If the pause causes the opponent to lose their stock, the pauser loses two stocks.
If you just got owned by a wickedly delicious combo and you pause for a second then there's nothing wrong with that. However, if you pause for no reason in the middle of fighting then you have to follow the rules even if it is last stock.
Results:
It was $5 entry and a 60-30-10 split for top 3.
1. Firo..................(lost to Battlecow once to force second set in GF)
2. Battlecow..........(lost to Firo twice)
3. Knitephox..........(lost to Firo and Battlecow)
4. AJ.....................(lost to Firo and Battlecow)
5. Rumbly..............(lost to Knitephox and AJ)
5. Solo..................(lost to Rumbly and Battlecow)
5. MeowMeow.......(lost to Solo and Knitephox)
8. Komotonoto....(lost to Battlecow once. see below)
9. ComboBlaze......(lost to Knitephox and AJ)
9. Fynal................(lost to AJ and MeowMeow)
Because we only had 10 people, I had to randomly choose 4 people to play an extra game in Winner's. Those were Knitephox/ComboBlaze and AJ/Fynal
Komo placing "8th" (because I don't know where to put him) was stupid because he was supposed to play AJ in Loser's, but it never happened. I told them to play then a little while later I asked if it happened yet, and then someone told me that AJ won. So, I had AJ advancing in the bracket without ever playing Komo so Komo in fact only lost once. My bad on that one, Komo. I think it stemmed from the fact that Komo kind of sounds like "Combo" as in ComboBlaze and AJ played ComboBlaze already in bracket.
