TOURNAMENT RULES

1. Tournament Format – Every player in the tournament will play one game per round. A random draw will determine each player’s opponent for the round. A player is eliminated from the tournament when they have accumulated three losses. The last player remaining will be declared the champion.

2. Byes - If there are an odd number of players at the start of a round, then one player will receive a bye (this will be determined through the random draw). Any player who has previously received N byes will be ineligible for another bye unless all other remaining players have also received N byes.

3. Team Selection: Each game (including who is Player 1 and who is Player 2) will be determined by a random draw at the start of each round. For each game, Player 1 will choose the matchup (i.e. the two teams). Player 2 then selects their preferred team.

4. “One Matchup Once” Rule: Players may only select a particular matchup once throughout the entire tournament. For instance, if Player 1 selects Packers-Browns, this person cannot call that exact matchup for the rest of the tournament. Player 2, however, is free to select that matchup later in the tournament.

5. Customizing Playbooks and Lineup Changes: Customizing playbooks is permissible. You may access your “change” screen (screen where you check player conditions and make substitutions) only twice per half. This helps speed up the games.

6. WR/TE at RB. Playing with a WR or TE at RB is prohibited. A WR or TE is able to play in the RB2 slot, but ONLY a RB can receive direct handoffs or pitches. The only time a WR or TE can run the ball is on a reverse. Outside of this: RB, WR, and TE are interchangeable.

7. Ties: Ties are not permitted in this tournament. If a game ends in a tie after overtime, a new game will begin, and the first player to score in the new game is the winner.

8. Lurching: Lurching is prohibited. If you want to rush with a DL, you must either go outside the offensive tackle or “popcorn” someone on the offensive line. You may not simply go around your blocker and dive. Note that this rule does not apply to LBs.

9. Nintendo Malfunctions: If there is an equipment failure in the first half, games will be replayed from the start. If equipment malfunctions in the 2nd half, only the second half is replayed. In that event, the scores from each half are added together to obtain a final score. If the game was uncompetitive or the equipment malfunctioned due to human error, the tourney organizers reserve the right to declare a winner without replaying any portion of the game.

10. Tournament Disputes: Eric O’Dell and Matt O’Toole are the tournament referees. They will decide all disputes unless one of them is a player in the game. If one or both is a player in the disputed game, Joe Moskwa or Chas Claus will resolve the dispute.

11. Equipment: Tournament competitors are encouraged to bring any and all equipment they are able to, including: NES, TSB cart, controllers, ac adapters, RF or RCA wires, extension cords, power strips, and most importantly small sized televisions. Please keep in mind, we may be in need of said equipment for the duration of the event. ONLY basic NES controllers are welcome, no turbo, etc. If you plan on bringing any equipment, please plan on arriving 30 minutes in advance to help set up. We thank you in advance for anything you are able to assist the tournament with!

12. Entry Fee, and Prizes: Tournament entry fee will be $20 per participant. Cash prizes for places TBD based on participants, with the winner taking home the Tecmo Kumite II tournament trophy!

Tourney participant list updated!


 


For those on the fence about coming, we certainly hope you can make it out!  Last years tournament was a great success, and the Kumite II is bound to be even better!  To make this tournament tick, we need as much equipment as we possibly can get.  Please let me know if you are able to contribute anything, including small TV sets, NES, carts, extension cords, power trips, etc.


 


Lastly, be sure to visit our Kumite II event page on Facebook!   https://www.facebook.com/events/594856437247111/?ref_dashboard_filter=calendar

I want to come so bad, but I don't want to push the envelope with my wife being pregnant.  I'm already going to a bowling tournament 2-3 weeks before she's due and she's not quite happy about that.   I know if I ask she'll give me the business.  *sigh*  If she has a change of heart, I'll be signed up like greased lightning.

Anyone with a name like "Ultimate Weapon" should be able to sweep this tournament...  Just sayin'

 

My nickname has nothing to do with my Tecmo Super Bowl skill level.  There will be far better players in Detroit than me.  It actually comes from a Sports Illustrated's cover for my favorite player on my favorite team growing up.  

 

It's also on a pretty sweet t-shirt now available from Tecmo Bowlers:

But glad you like the name!
