Jones Memorial Smash Duos Tournament Ruleset (and a Bunch of Other Stuff You Need to Know About the Tournament)
Fundamentals Rules: v1
3 stocks (lives)
5:00 minutes
Launch rate at 1.0x
Team Attack
The following rules will be on.
Restocking
Restocking is when you take one of your teammate's stocks, which only applies if they have 2 or more stocks.
You should probably ask for your teammate’s consent before restocking.
To restock, spam A and B continuously until you see a stock being transferred from your teammate’s to you.
Pausing
Yes, it will be on, but it is STRICTLY PROHIBITED TO USE UNLESS IT’S FOR THE FOLLOWING:
Mr. Register tells everyone to pause all games to announce news (probably shouldn’t be happening).
To tell someone to stop doing something that is disturbing the games.
For example, blocking the screens or being loud. (People
Other emergencies which affect the match being played.
Abusing it will result in losing a stock.
Team Attack
This means you can attack your own teammate.
To prevent… absurd stuff from happening.
Forces teamwork, so stop complaining, just get better teamwork.
You can actually use this to your advantage too, as you can activate counters, Incineroar’s Revenge, or Mr. Game and Watch’s Oil Panic.
These rules will be off.
FS (final smash) meter and Smash Balls
Them both being off means it’s not possible to get final smashes, as they are unfair comeback mechanics.
Items
Underdog boost
Stage morph/hazards
Spirits
If your teammate doesn’t come or is tardy for any reason (detention, excused absence), you will be playing by yourself. NO CPUS WILL BE PROVIDED AS A TEAMMATE. If neither you nor your teammate comes, it’s a forfeit and your opponents will advance and play against some filler players. If neither your team nor your opponents come, then both of you will be disqualified. Don’t come begging to the mods to reschedule your game, as we have many teams, matches, behaviour problems, and a huge bracket to deal with. Our job is already hard enough during tournament time, don’t make it worse.
The allowed maps will be randomly chosen from this list, by the game:
Small and Normal Battlefield
Final Destination
Pokémon Stadium 2
Smashville
Town and City
Small Battlefield
Tortimer Island
Bracket Errors
If there’s an error on the bracket, kindly email Mr. Register at tregister@fusdk12.net.
Bracket is available on mrregister.net/tests It will go live once signups are over.
Etiquette
This club is already chaotic enough. We don’t need King Salmonid Triumvirates with their bloodcurling screams (search up “triumvirate splatoon” if you’re curious) in here. Therefore…
Don’t scream.
You can cheer, but booing the other side isn’t allowed, and keep the volume at a reasonable level.
Don’t distract the players.
If the player doesn’t like your cheers, you should stop.
Being either a sore winner or loser can result in (but isn’t limited to):
Disqualification
Temporary ban from the club
Google Classroom mute
Remember, B.O.L.T. behaviour and club rules still apply during games (no eating, don’t run etc.), and the above consequences can be applied to any disruptive people.
What to do:
Go to C107 during lunch
Watch some games
If you’re playing, find your opponent(s) and your teammate
The mods will usually call your team and opponents
Play your game
Tell the result of the match to a moderator
Make sure you do this step or else there will be a lot of inconveniences. If the moderator is watching, bug them until they got the result of the match. (YES, YOU CAN DO THIS!)
Spamming
Yeah, it’s annoying. It’s no-skill. It’s completely unethical. And totally acceptable. We will NOT ban people for their playstyle. Therefore…
Don’t come complaining to the mods that they were spamming and they didn’t deserve the win.
Why didn’t you punish their moves?
Spammed moves usually have very punishing endlag.
Air dodge, spot dodge, dodge, shield and jump. It works wonders.
Don’t clog up the google classroom comment threads. This will result in you getting muted, AND getting banned temporarily if this behavior continues.
DLC Fighters
Logically, all these switches are Mr. Register’s and under his Nintendo account. Therefore, we can only have one switch with the DLC character package at a time, thus no DLC.
Controls
A lot of us have different controls. Tilt jump (jump by tilting the stick up) will be on by default (no name). We will have 4 names with tilt jump off with the names, “no tilt”, “no tilt2”, “no tilt3”, and “no tilt4”, for the rare case that all four of the players don’t play with tilt jump. If you have other control changes you want, come talk to the one of the mods or Mr. Register BEFORE the tournament starts. We won’t be changing any controls when the tournament starts.
GOOD LUCK, AND MAY THE BEST PLAYERS WIN!!
