Smash Island VIII

With the new patch coming out soon, it's time for another tournament! *Throws confetti everywhere*

The tournament will begin on Saturday, January 17th, at approximately 13:00 EST, and last until approximately 17:00 EST. Seeding is based on player rankings. The bracket is not finalized until about 5 minutes before the tournament actually begins, so stop complaining about bad seeding the week before the event. Anyone who fails to check in before the event will be dropped from the bracket. Anyone who checks in, but fails to show up within 30 minutes of the tournament's beginning will be dropped to losers. Anyone who fails to show up for an additional 15 minutes will be dropped entirely.

Seeding is based on player rankings. Players may be rearranged to make things easier for people in different regions during the first rounds.

Each round will last approximately half an hour. I can push back a deadline if necessitated by a lack of finished matches. If all matches are played out before the deadline, the next round will immediately start. The bracket will be updated as each result comes in.

All finished match results should be posted in the IRC channel in the following format:
!X defeats Y 0-0

If the other player does not show up to fight, get a hold of me before the match deadline indicating this. If the match isn't played out before the deadline, the other player will be disqualified from the match.

Main Rules:

  • Double Elimination (Round Robin if fewer than 8 entrants)
  • 3 Stocks, 7 minutes
  • Items disabled
  • Hazards disabled
  • All matches are best of 3, except for winners/losers/grand finals, which are best of 5.

Stage list:

This tournament will use the current Backroom Stage List.

Code:
  Neutral:
    Battlefield
    Final Destination/Nintendo 3DS (both stages can be stricken at once)
    Stadium III
    WarioWare
    Yoshi's Story

  Counterpick:
    Dreamland
    Smashville
    Jungle Hijinx
    Mirror Chamber
    Tower of Salvation
    Castle Siege
    Dracula's Castle
    Sky Sanctuary Zone


Stage Striking:

Players will use the 1-2-1 striking system to determine which neutral stage to use for the first game. For all subsequent games, the winning player will strike 3 stages from the list above, and the losing player will pick from the remaining stages. You cannot choose the last stage you won on in the current set.

Lag:

The tournament requires the most recent version of SSF2 as of the tournament date. A desynched game will be played on the same stage with the same characters. If desynching problems continue, make sure that both players have the client-side version of the game. If multiple desynchs occur, or if an argument arises over desynching, I will personally determine the outcome of the game based on the replay information. I'm not an idiot; I can tell when someone is faking a desynch.

Other Rules:

  • If time runs out, the person with the most stocks left wins. If both players have an equal number of stocks, whoever has a lower percentage wins. If the percentage is also equal, play a 1-stock 3 minute match with the same characters on the same stage to determine the winner. Repeat as necessary.
  • If the match ends with a move that kills both characters simultaneously when they are each on their last stock, the player who performed the move wins.
  • If a player pauses the game, they forfeit their current stock. If their opponent loses a stock as a direct result of the pause, the player forfeits an additional stock. If the opponent loses their last stock in this manner, the player automatically forfeits the match.
  • Excessive stalling is not allowed (walljump camping, reapeated use of Purin's Rising Pound, scrooging, etc.)
  • Gentleman's Clause is in effect. Any of the above rules may be averted if both players agree to it.

My two cents ; this bracket is UNFAIR.
1) If there are more than 14 people or if there is an odd number of participants , a few will start at round 2 and miss some sets.
2) Losers of K and A will automatically skip Losers Round 1 and go to round 2.
Why?

Because byes. Not everybody will start at the same time given that the number of entrants is a power of 2.
