Sorry for getting this up so late. Going to be trying a few things this time around like running a MK vs DCU tournament to see if it has a decent turnout and having SFIV on free play so we can introduce new players to SF and that in March we can get a strong turnout for a tourney with it. If a sizable number of people are interested I’m more than willing to run a tournament for it IF we have enough setups available for it to run smoothly.
Friday, February 20th- 1PM to 9PM. The main events will be our Brawl No Item tournament. Spectators will get in free. Entrants will pay $5 for the host/cover charge while the actual tournament entry fee will be $10 for each game. The Brawl Item Standard Play tournament and MK vs DCU Tournament entry fee is $5 each. Bringing your own controller/stick is preferred though some should be available. Full rules and division of winnings outlined below. We will also be selling $1 tickets for our prize drawings where the winners will be able to pick from various gift cards. Tournament entrants get a ticket for the prize drawings free. We’ll be selling Papa Johns pizza for $2 a slice and canned sodas for $1 with a dinner deal of 2 slices and a soda for $4.
Any mid round rule changes by entrants are subject to disqualification.
Brawl No Item tournament - $10
We’ll be doing things a bit more traditionally than we did with our item tournament so I’m copying this from a few other rulesets with a few edits.
- Matches will be Three Stock, 7 minute time limit.
- Double Elimination. All matches will be 2/3, with all finals being 3/5.
- Random seeding will be done by location. This is due to us not having our own ranking charts for skill levels.
- First match is a blind pick, where the competitors will tell their character to a judge (including special forms like Zero Suit Samus or selecting a specific Pokemon Trainer starter) then proceed. The stage will be random selected from the list of Neutral stages. The loser of the first match will then pick the next stage from the list of Neutral or Counterpick stages, then the winner may choose his character, the loser will choose his character, and the match will begin. The same will happen for the third match, if necessary.
- The same stage can not be played twice in a row in a single set unless by random select.
- Players who are late for their match will lose a stock for each pasing minute they are not present. If/when they show up, they will have to play the full match time period with the reduced stock.
- Stalling underneath a stage is an automatic disqualification for that match.
- Prize winning percentages will be 70/20/10 (1st, 2nd, 3rd)

- Final Destination, Battlefield, Yoshi’s Story, Smashville, Lylat Cruise

Visitor parking is in the new (brick) parking deck next to the bookstore and across the street from the old (concrete) parking deck and the IT building. There is a lot of road construction nearby.
