First game must be on Hyrule
Counterpicks: Hyrule, Dreamland, Kongo Jungle, Peach's Castle
SSB DSR: You can't counterpick with a stage you have already won on (does not apply to the win from the first game)

Explanation
Hyrule is the most neutral stage in the game. I think the first match should be on the stage with the least disadvantages for all characters. (unless agreed upon) means both players can agree to play on ANY stage for ANY match.

Advanced Slob Picks: Loser picks stage first, then winner picks character, then loser picks character (in that order)

Things to Consider
There could be a 10 minute time limit on Hyrule only. It may not be enforced every time.


Sunday Tournament Schedule
Mario Kart (SNES).........10:00am

Rules for the Mario Kart Tournament 
Each match will be 4 players at a time (split-screen), and only the winner will advance to the next round. So basically, we'll go from 64 to 16 in round 1, then 16 to 4 in round 2, then the final four will compete in one final round to determine the over all champion.

All 1st place contestants will win cool prizes provided by Dpad Retro Gamin  - Plus bragging rights to all of your friends!!
