[COLOR="lime"][SIZE="4"]Melee in the Southwest, wut?[/SIZE][/COLOR]
A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away, OHSNAP [Oklahoma Hosts Smash: Need a Pummelling?]  was a series of oklahoma melee tournaments hosted by various TOs, namely myself and RastaImposta. But, just as the southwest smash scene had evolved to Brawl, so too did the tournament series.

However! Melee is far from dead in Oklahoma, new players have shown their faces, and more and more veterans have come out of the woodwork wondering what happened to the melee tournament scene in the SW. Scud and I took this as a prompt and present to you the first Oklahoma melee tournament in 3 years, and hopefully the start of a continuing series:

[SIZE="3"][COLOR="DarkRed"]Intimikill[/COLOR][/SIZE]: to end the life of an opponent completely with mindgames; to kill without any physical interaction.

With this project I hope to see more than just texas and kansas again, but some midwest and midsouth buddies. now...on to some specifics


[COLOR="lime"][SIZE="4"]Venue[/SIZE][/COLOR]
Intimikill will take place at the Oklahoma University student union, first floor. There will be free parking; instructions will come later. The address for the Oklahoma Memorial Union is:
[COLOR="Blue"][SIZE="3"]900 Asp Avenue
Norman, OK 73019[/SIZE][/COLOR]

There will be NO VENUE FEE :D


[COLOR="lime"][SIZE="4"]Set-ups[/SIZE][/COLOR]
we are currently in need of both televisions and systems (both wiis and gamecubes will be acceptable). the union should be providing two moderately sized televisions. since melee players are always prepared, though, i am confident this need will dwindle quickly.

*The first stage in each set, unless agreed upon, must be chosen at random.
*Each player may strike 1 stage to be chosen by random. This stage will be legal to be chosen as a counter-pick by either player, however.
*Additionally, each player may strike 1 stage from the set. This stage may be a random. Stage strikes are to be announced after both players finalize their character choices. A double-blind character pick may be called by either player at any time before the first match.
*Counter-picking will be in standard Advanced Slob format: loser chooses stage, winner chooses character, loser chooses character.
*Dave's Stupid Rule: no stage may be counter-picked by a player that previously won on it in the set, unless agreed upon by both players.
*Modified controllers, and third-party controllers with turbo or slow capabilities are banned.
*Stall tactics and glitches are both banned. You know what they are.
*Wobbling is banned.
*A 10-minute grace period will be allowed after matches are called. If a party does not arrive at his or her match within that time, he or she will be disqualified from the set,
*Additional teams rules: lifestealing will be allowed, and team attack will be ON.

so, starting sometime on february, we are hoping to start monthly state tournaments for super smash brothers melee, hosted by the legendary Po Pimpus (the pimpest luigi).

i'm wondering who, besides vegafuse or zinth, would be interested in participating?
the venue would most likely be located in norman or OKC...we're currently looking for a cheap place to do it, so yeah.
