Tournament Rules
- Options: 100% Life, Time Limit of 99, Normal Game Speed
- Sets: For the first time we're going to be doing sets instead of just regular matches, best 3 out of 5 (as it is possible when you get a good combo going to pretty much full-combo somebody in JLvsSF and there is no way to change the number of rounds in a match).
- Character Selections: For the purpose of this tournament, only ONE character will be banned, and that is Parallax.
- Changing Characters: You ARE allowed to change characters both during and between sets. You CANNOT quit a match to change your character however.
- Specialty Controllers: I will be running the game off the computer that we are NOT streaming on as well so we should be able to test and see what other controllers work in case people want to bring their own. I know that all wired 360 controllers work in MUGEN, but the others will probably need to be tested. This being said, players WILL be allowed to customize their buttons before each of their sets, as I suspect people will be using different controllers to suit their needs.
Giveaway/Contest
If you saw the original post/invite on our Facebook page (WHY AREN'T YOU FOLLOWING THERE ANYWAY, HUH?!) or the announcement video on my YouTube channel, you'd know that in addition to the winner receiving a prize, there is also a chance for anyone watching/participating to win a prize as well (believe me, I have tons of things to give out). The contest/giveaway works like this: If you can guess after the first round of matches which characters will be CHOSEN (not what character wins or the players that make it to the finals) in the final match, you have a chance to win a prize! For those in attendance of the tournament, you'll have your pick between a poster/pack or comic book/pack OR a code from my giveaway codelist. If you're out there watching the stream from Twitch (It will be under the category Retro, since JLvsSF is homebrew and there's no category for it) you'll be eligible for one item from the giveaway codelist.
Now, the cool thing about this tournament is that for the first time, the audience chose it! I might put up another poll for all of the March tournaments in the future and let you guys decide on them, because that was actually kind of cool, hahaha. The other super cool part about this is that the game is F2P, so if any of the participants would like to get a feel for the characters they're more than welcome to download the game before the tournament from Zvitor's homepage or the GameJolt page. Even though the GameJolt page says the current version is 1.0, I'm pretty sure both versions will get you 1.01 which is what we will be playing for the tournament.
P.S. I'm currently going through controllers to see which will work and which will not in case someone wants to bring a stick. I'll be compiling a list of the controllers that will work down here in case of specialty controllers.
