Since the monthlies at Gameware will be taking their yearly hiatus for the holiday season (they’ll be back in January at their new location on College Dr.-more details to come as that gets closer!), we’ll be having the Baton Rouge Monthly tournament at Little Wars! Little Wars is a table top gaming shop on Jefferson Hwy and will be our venue for November and December! Take note of this location change! This is also on a Sunday!
Entry:
$5 (cash only) per tourney
When:
6:15 PM - Registration Opens
7:30 PM - Tournaments Begin/Brackets close
NOTE: We’re going to be stingy about starting on time! Please send me a message in some form in order to get your name in the bracket if you’re going to be running late! We will be starting on time.
Tournaments (Singles):
Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 (360)
Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition (360)
Rules:
-Winnings are split 60/30/10
-Double Elimination Bracket, seeded by location
-ALL matches between players are a set of three games, with the exception of Winners, Losers, and Grand Finals which are 3 out of 5 matches.
-B.Y.O.C. (No controllers will be provided by the tournament organizers or Little Wars) This is important. Make sure you can borrow from someone if you do not have a controller. It helps to keep things flowing smoothly.
-Wireless controllers are prohibited. This is due to syncing up with other systems and potentially pausing the players’ match next to you. This also makes switching controllers much faster. If you have a wireless controller, the battery pack needs to be removed and a wire needs to be used.
Please keep an eye on your breakaway cables! Make sure you remove them from the consoles! Try to have some sort of identification on your controllers/sticks!
-Be punctual. Do not be late for your matches. We will be calling out names, so listen up! If you’re leaving or stepping out for a bit, let us (the tournament organizers) know. Makes things much easier, but don’t disappear for undue lengthy amounts of time. We don’t want to have to DQ anyone, but reserve that right in order to keep the tournament flowing as smoothly as possible.
-Pausing during a match is grounds for a disqualification/loss of that GAME. This is ultimately left up to the other player in order to decide whether or not to continue the match.
In-game specific rules:
-Winner must keep the same team (this means same exact order and same exact assists) (MvC3)
-Winner must keep same character, may change ultra (SSF4:AE)
-Blanka Alt. Costume 3 is banned. (SSF4:AE)
Requests from the TOs:
If you have a setup that can be used for the tournament, PLEASE let us know. Shoot me a PM, email, or IM.
A setup consists of a display (lag free monitor–ASUS monitors are winners here) and a console (360 please). We need the monitors over consoles mostly.
