General Info
Some tournaments have entry fees. Others do not. Please see below for individual details.
You must register at the Tournament Registration Desk at the front of the exhibit hall before the tournament begins. Once a tournament has started, you will not be allowed to join.
BYOC is highly recommended. Tournament staff will have 1st party controllers available for use but make no guarantee on model. If you prefer a particular classic controller, nunchuck, fighting stick, 3rd party controller, etc. make sure to bring it.
Modded controllers of any kind are not allowed.
All fighting game tournaments will be either single or double elimination, decided by judge at the start of tournament, dependent upon the number of entrants and/or time constraints
Unsportsmanlike conduct will not be tolerated. Excessive verbal abuse will be dealt with at the judge's discretion. Any physical altercation will result in all participants being immediately disqualified and escorted off the premises by security.
Know when your tournaments are! If you sign up for multiple tournaments that occur at the same time, you will be disqualified from whichever tournament you are not physically participating in and will not receive a refund. If a tournament you are participating in runs past it's allotted time and conflicts with a later tournament you have registered for, please consult the judge. They will make their best effort to bump up your match, but cannot make any guarantees.
