I was too lazy for a cool logo so have a generic one
It's also probably the first Smash for Wii U tournament on AAO.
Rules:
-No Miis
-None of that custom stuff
-No Items
-Two Stocks (with a 6-minute time limit)
-Best of Three in most sets, except...
-Best of Five in the set for first place (or both of them, if there'll be two)
-Double Elimination system
Aside from that, just the rules of good sportsmanship.
Stages:
1st match will be a coin toss between Final Destination, Battlefield, and Smashville, unless both players agree on a stage.
After that, the loser of the previous match chooses between:
-all Omega Stages
-Final Destination
-Battlefield
-Smashville
-Town and City
-Lylat Cruise
-Delfino Plaza
-Kongo Jungle 64
-Halberd
-Dream Land 64
-Umbra Clock Tower
(Note that the DLC stages can also be picked if you don't own the DLC, just let me know and I'll pick them for you until we get them.)
Before the loser picks, the winner can ban up to two stages from being picked for that match.
Banning Final Destination also bans all omegas. (I know there are small differences between each but I can hardly have them all as a separate thing or banning would be pointless)
If both players agree on playing on a stage, then that stage is allowed regardless of whether it's on the list above or not.
(This doesn't apply to custom stages.)
By all means have your silly Temple matches.
Characters:
Naturally, all characters are allowed except Miis. You pick these after you know the stage. So you can't get caught terribly off-guard or anything.
The winner of the previous match, should there have been one, needs to announce what they're picking before the other player picks their character.
What you need:
-well, the Wii U version of the game, of course
-...I'd also appreciate a Discord or Skype account, preferably Discord. It'd be next to impossible to keep organized with just PMs.
What you can win:
Glory
I'm going to buy the winners games on Steam for the amounts specified below. Well, that was my idea anyway. If you'd rather get it in some other form or don't even have Steam, we can discuss that then.
1st place wins 60$
2nd place wins 30$
3rd place wins 10$

I'll try to save all the replays and upload them, so you get to see all the tragic failures and glorious victories.
If we get an even number of players, I'll just be host. If we get an odd number, I'll participate myself and just give the prize money to the next person in line if I get that far.
And that's all. Have fun. Sign up. Tell your friends that might be interested to sign up. may the best Smash person win. If you sign up, please post your Nintendo Network ID because we'll need it to play anyway.
The current deadline for signups is March 23. From then on people will always get roughly one week to play their matches but are encouraged to finish them as soon as they can. If someone doesn't get their matches done, I'll decide who wins on based on activity. If both people just vanished I'll have to flip a coin. Don't make me flip a coin.
Of course, I also need to be present to supervise the matches, so this might get tricky. We'll see how it goes, and if that's too inconvenient I might just let people handle it themselves as long as they remember to save and send me the replays.
