Tournament Rules and Format.

MvC3 tournaments are double elimination. AE will be pools followed by top 16 in double elimination. Each match will consist of 3 games with each game beings best of 3 rounds, except for UMvC3 & IGAU, which will be best of 5. If one player wins the first 2 games the third game is not played. Any game with with a different rule set will be played according to its tournament standard type.
All grand finals will be 3/5 if that is not the standard tournament type.
Players who placed in top 8 in the prior 3 DoCs or Infernos (where applicable) will be seeded accordingly. All others will be randomly seeded.

1. All characters are useable, but if you require DLC characters, please make that known prior to your match.

2. Custom controllers and button configuration is allowed.

3. Turbo is banned. Anyone who is caught using this feature will be disqualified.

4. Players can change characters in each round of the double elimination phase. However once a match has started they may only change characters in a match after loosing a set. The winner of the first set must stick to his character he started the set with and may only change if he looses the second set, in which case the winner of the second set must then stick to the character he used in the second set. In UMvC3, orders of characters may be changed, but assist types may not.

5. Double Blind select available in the event of people being concerned about counter picking. An admin will assist with this if required.

6. Rock, paper, scissors is used in the event of people being unable to agree on which side they want to sit on.

7. In the event of a player pausing a game during a round or his stick/pad fails during a round, he forfeits the round unless both players agree to carry on. If there is a dispute an admin will resolve the dispute. This includes pausing during cinematic supers/hypers, except in the case of a character death being guaranteed by the super/hyper.

8. In the event of a game ending in a draw, the game will scrapped and not counted towards the results. It will then be replayed. (Though it will be pretty damn hype.)

9. Players who are overly disruptive during a competition or who are distracting other players can be removed from the tournament at the discretion of the tournament admins.

10. No white track suits please & TO's word is final is all disputes.

ban request

Pm me and I can fill you in if you like. Those meetings you are referring to have not only already taken place, but I was at them. Like I said, PM if you need to know something.

Are you gonna come?.... missed you at DoC.

Too bright & distracting for the guy sitting beside you, therefore unfair advantage.

All other colours & Ryu cosplay are accepted however :pac:

It's a long running joke in the Irish FGC (while being completely serious).

One of our players had a habit of attending tournaments in white tracksuits and would then join us as we'd look for a pub/restaurant after to eat/ drink in.

We'd then spend half a night wandering around getting gradually more pissed off as no pub in Dublin will allow someone in in a white tracksuit.

Ajay i am the one who got in contact with the xgc in the first place to organise events in there, but not just organise events because we have been doing that for years, i was in the process of building a partnership with them and then all of a sudden you guys are having secret meetings and not having the decency to include me, After i was the one who initiated first contract with them about a partnership and got them to want to meet with us in the first place to discuss business, you think that xgc page on the website is there for fun?

why was i not told about a meeting especially after i posted in the thread that nutrient made?

...and you think this is the correct forum for discussion on that? Either pm me, email me, phone me or arrange to meet me directly and I will explain why you weren't informed.

Doctor DooM

Yes, this thread is not the place for that at all Chunkis.

I always say I don't mind off topicing, but I do when someone is trying to achieve something. This is the case here.

I'm leaving AJ's response there so you know what to do.

A lot of the Injustice lads are PS3 pad players so it would be kind of unfair forcing them to use converters because of lag and all that.
