Brawl Ruleset:

Borrowed from Ace
• 3 Stock, 8 minute timer, items are set to "off" and "none," all matches are best 2 out of 3 with the exception of Winners Finals, Losers Finals, and Grand Finals (all to be played 3 out of 5)
• First game is double blind character, random stage.
• Second and third games, loser of the previous game picks stage, winner picks character, loser picks character.
• No player may choose a stage they have already won on in that set unless agreed upon by both players.
• Stage Strike: Each person strikes two stages for the entire set. One neutral stage, one counterpick stage. The neutral can't be played on the first game, and the counterpick can't be used during the set. Consider the chosen neutral a counterpick stage, and the chosen counterpick a banned stage. You can Strike a nuetral twice(the first turns it into a counterpick, the second striking it from that list as well.)
• In the event of a dispute, controller ports will be selected by Rock-Paper-Scissors
• In team matches, the ports will be determined in a 1221 fashion; whoever wins the RPS will choose first, then the opposing team will get their ports, and then the teammate of the RPS winner will get the last port.
• If the timer runs out, the victor is determined first by stock and then by percentage. If a tie still occurs, play a one stock match in the same match-up, character-wise and stage-wise.
• Metaknight's Infinite Cape glitch is banned.
• If a game ends with Bowser doing his suicide klaw and it ends in sudden death, the sudden death will be ignored and that game will count as a win for Bowser.
• 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.
• Any action that can prevent the game from continuing (i.e., freezing, disappearing characters, game reset, etc.) will result in a forfeit of that match for the player that initiated the action. You are responsible for knowing your own character, and must be wary about accidentally triggering one of these effects.
• Stalling is banned (The act of deliberately avoiding any and all conflict so that one may make the game unplayable. Planking for short periods of time is not stalling, but excessive planking is. Running away from an opponent to reach a better position is not stalling. Any infinite chain grabs most end quickly after 250% has been reached so as to prevent excessive stalling.)
• Dedede's Standing Infinite IS BANNED. The wall infinite, because there are no permawalled stages on is legal but is subject to the 250% stalling rule.(This rule is for clarification purposes. If you have an issue with me bring it up, I'm willing to reconsider this one. If swayed, but keep in mind there are no permenant walls, and the stages with walls can be banned, can be avoided. There are characters that can't be chain grabbed that can help you avoid the walls if need be.)

I think Pat got that Dazzle shizz to work, Mike. Not 100% though. Anything under 3 minutes, though, and I'll record it. Lol.

If you can get dave does that mean you can get me too? From Franklin, that is? :D
I'll be heading home saturday, so anyone in the milford/franklin area is free to come back with me and stay at wpi for the night. I only have a 5-seater though, so no more than 8 people (10 if anyone doesn't mind the trunk)

And for anyone from Boston:

I'll be making trips out to the worcester union station, but the train schedule sucks (9:20 is the only arrival pre-tourny)

BTW, I don't have any copies of melee or any cubes, so if you guys want melee we're gonna need setups. And if there's less than 10 people for melee, I might switch it to a round robin. But then again I haven't been in a melee tournament, so feel free to yell at me about the rules

I'm gonna ask copacetic about running melee doubles as well, I know I can get alot of TVs and setups [since like everybody in my dorm have a TV the would lend to me]. However it would just depend on how many people go, SMB didn't have that many people so melee doubles wasn't very necessary.

Also right now, put me down for a TV, 3 cubes, one wii, and 2 copies of melee for now.
