From the Moderator:
“3v3 Team tournaments are optional only if we have enough time after every tournament is completed. $5 a head, 3v3 round robin team tournament 70/20/10. Also you can’t use the same characters in that team. If one of your teammates uses a character you can’t use that character. That’s the set up for all team tournaments. No multi character use.
3S, MvC2, GGXX AC”

“Team Tournament’s will be held on Sunday unless there is time after the main tournament is completed.”

“This is a (B.Y.O.C. = Bring Your Own Controller/converter or Joystick) tournament for all of the console games being played at FRXI. You are responsible for your equipment and we will not supply anyone with a controller or converter at this tournament for any console tournament. Last year I supplied the PS2 to PS3 converters and 5 of them got stolen.”

Rules:
All game Double Elim.–Best 2 out of 3

If you hit the start button or a malfunction in your equipment happens during a match that makes the game pauses or resets during a tournament match get the head judge in charge of running that tournament to decide what will happen next for that match. Replays are automatic if it’s at the beginning of the match and you have played 5-10 seconds in the game with no one having an advantage in the match.

Once again from the moderator:
***”It’s not my problem if “YOUR STICK” malfunction’s during a tournament. I WILL BE THE FINAL SAY ON ANY PROBLEMS THAT MY TOURNAMENT JUDGES CAN’T RESOLVE!”***

“Button shouldering” will “NOT” be allowed at FRX in the following games:

All capcom 2d fighters, Tekken5DR, and all snk fighters

(THAT MEANS IF YOU RESET YOUR BUTTONS YOU MUST PUT THE DEFAULT MULTI-BUTTONS ON BLANK!!!) So that mean you won’t have your 3xkick button, or 3xpunch button. This applies to snk games also. Any default presets that are NOT like the arcade set up are not allowed. If you don’t have a 3x punch or kick button in the arcade then you won’t use it at FRX! We are trying to make it as close to arcade type tournament as possible and NO button mapping the traditional way to play capcom and snk games IMO. I don’t care where you put them on your controler/joystick but you should only have the following buttons input’s for the following games:

Capcom games that are on consoles will have only 6 button inputs allowed on your controller/joystick and they are:

1. Jab punch=light punch
2. Strong punch=medium punch
3. Fierce punch=hard punch
4. Short kick=light kick
5. forward kick=medium kick
6. roundhouse kick=hard punch

SNK-Playmore games on console inputs that are allowed:

1. Light punch
2. Heavy punch
3. Light kick
4. Heavy kick

“Button Shouldering/mapping” “Will” be allowed for SC4.

First stage is random from the Neutral stages listed below.
Each player is allowed to reset the random stage once; this forces a new random stage to be picked. If the new stage has been previously reset by either player during the same set, that stage is reset again. (Random Stage Reset)
The loser of the first match will announce a new stage to play on for the next game. The winner will then be allowed to switch characters, followed by the loser. Apply the same logic for the third match (and fourth/fifth when applicable) if there is one. (Advanced Slob Picks)
No stage may be used twice in a single set if the counter-picking player has already won on that stage, unless the opponent agrees to use the stage again. (Dave’s Stupid Rule)

——————————————————————————————————

Any Team Tournament rules: You “CAN NOT” have 2 people using the same character on your team. So you better make your team wisely.

If you are playing in multiple games you need to notify a organizer when you are about to play in another game, so they can skip your match on the brackets and come back to you after you completed the other tournament match.

Also once the tournament starts you are responsible for knowing when your next match will come up. If you have to go for a food or bathroom break, then “PLEASE” notify the judge at your station or “me” that you will be gone for a few minutes. The judge should beable to tell you when your next game will be and how long you have before your next match up. Just act like you have been to a tournament before people and everything will run smoothly.

Anyone that get’s out of line inside or outside of the hotel will force me to call the police on you. Keep that “B.S.” online or at home. I don’t care where you keep it just don’t bring that drama to FRXI. Act like you have some home training people.

I have 50 rooms reserved for people/groups that are attending FRXI. We need these rooms sold for that weekend since the hotel was nice enough to hold those rooms at a reduced rate for everyone attending FRXI. So if you are reserving a ROOM at the hotel for FINAL ROUND, MAKE SURE YOU TELL THE HOTEL STAFF YOU ARE WITH THE FINAL ROUND GROUP We have a discounted rate set up for you guys, just like we did last year. When you call up the hotel, don’t just say you want to reserve a room, say you want to reserve a room for FINAL ROUND. The rooms are $89.99 when you tell them your with the Finalround group. Otherwise you’re going to get overcharged. The normal price is $129.99 per night. If you have 4 people that would be only $22.25 each day for the hotel room.
