Set Procedure ==============================================
Pick characters.
Players may elect to do a double blind pick.
Stage Striking: (1-2-1)
Players engage in a round of RPS. Winner of the RPS may choose who strikes the first stage. The other person then strikes the next two stages. The first person to strike then strikes the last one, effectively choosing the first stage they play on.

Stage Bans: During the stage ban phase, the player who won the previous game may ban 1 stage from either the Starter or Counter-pick lists.
Loser selects the stage for the next game.
Note: In best of 5 sets, players must ban after each victory

2nd/3rd match procedure:
1: Winner bans one stage
2: Loser of the previous match chooses a stage to play the next match on
3: The winner of the previous match may elect to change their character
4. The loser of the previous match chooses their character, and starts the match.

Round Robin Pools Rules
=============================================
If below 80 entrants, Pools will consist of 8 pools with top 3 players advancing to top 24

If 80 entrants or higher, pools will consist of 12 pools with top 2 players advancing to top 24

If 128+ entrants, pools will consist of 16 pools with top 3 players advancing to top 48.

Placement in pools will be determined by head to head result first.

If 3 players are tied, the placement for top 24/48 will be determined by least number of games lost first. In the event all 3 players are tied, they will engage in tie breaker games until one of them is able to defeat the other two.

Additional Rules ============================================
Maximum time allowed between games is 60 seconds. Violating players will be issued a loss.
Team Colors: Player character colors must match their team color when possible, to avoid confusion (ex: Luigi on the green team must use the green costume).
All controllers are acceptable for this event. If a gamepad is available at the setup in question, you are allowed to use it. However, do not ask us to provide a gamepad for you.

Double Suicide Rule: If the game ends in a double suicide resulting from a suicide move (Kirby's inhale, Ganon's choke, etc) then the result will be decided by the results screen.

If the game goes to sudden death, then the players will quit and play another game 1 stock 3 minutes in order to decide the of that match

Setup Cards =============================================

We will be assigning stations to each set that is played in tournament, and with each set we will be distributing a card with the number of the station written on it. Please display this card prominently on the table in front of the setup. When the set ends, the player that is victorious will need to come back to the TO desk to report the result. If you are playing a set without a card in front of you, it will be assumed that it is friendlies.

This will help us to be more efficient, get tournament completed quicker, and eventually, we'll be able to open up more setups for friendlies when we near the end.
