At the beginning of a match players can opt for a double blind pick.

At the start of the first round, each player can use one random reset, meaning if the stage that comes up on random is not to their liking, they may opt to randomize it again. If both players use their reset, the final reset must stay.

After the first round the loser picks the stage, the winner decides what character he will play and then the loser will pick their character and the next round will begin.

Stall tactics such as MetaKnight's Infinite Dimensional Cape glitch are banned, unless they are for recovery purposes.

We have monthlies all the time. I'll try to catch you on AIM to let you know when we have the next one. I think Chickenshit is working on a major, and I'll for sure let you know about that dude.

Chickenwing, the "random stage select" rule just seriously needs to go, no joke. The loser should not get to pick anything besides his/her own char. If I beat somebody and they want to change the stage, I'm going to nicely say no and hopefully you're a good speaker to him/her, cause you already know people like me/con/agustin are not going to budge with a stupid rule like that. Old tourneys were never like that, and I can't see a reason why this "new age" rule should be in effect. Anyway, keep the rule, get rid of it, either way people that I beat aren't picking the stage. Not trying to be mean, but since I'm getting complaints about this rule and nobody is posting it, I had to be "that guy" and say something. I still heart you CW

I'll be bringing a console also FYI

That's cool. I decided to come in to SA that next weekend anyway. One of my good friends goes to Pharm school there and I'm going to hang out there for the weekend b4 I head to Houston for thanksgiving. Maybe I can get up w/ some of you guys. I'll leave my ps3 at home though :)


And I live in ATL...I doubt I can make it to a monthly, but I'll roll out to a Major. And maybe you should put the city in the post title...that might be nice.
