Venue Information

We are no longer located at the John Curtain Hotel. We are currently still not 100% on a consistant venue. Please check the announcements for up to date venue details and watch this space for updates. With that said, the venue specific rules listed below no longer apply. Please mind the ones that do th

Rules & Common Sense

1. You are not allowed to assault people, physically or verbally. Trash talk is cool if the receiver is OK and going along with it. If you aren't sure then don't do it. Aside from possibly being removed, you'll sound like a tool.
2. Please respect peoples property. It's volunteered for the cause and if shit happens to it, people will be less willing to put their stuff in and the event becomes less awesome. If you break it, you take responsibility for it. If you steal it, we'll have to implement bag checks at the entrance and things like that which are quite fail.

1. It's BYO controller, so please come prepared. We at least expect you to bring dual shock, gamecube or whatever else that you use. If you're used to arcade sticks and you don't have one, most people are fine with you using theirs, but understand that it only takes one idiot to make owners think twice about lending their stuff.
2. Please, if you drive then don't leave any valuables in your car. If you bring equipment, even if you feel it won't get used then don't leave it in your car. If you're new, or have more concerns, please ask one of the organisers and we'll place your things somewhere people don't have access to.
3. The new location is sure to attract a new bunch of people, so when playing casuals please be courteous and try to include onlookers into your games, whether you are playing winner stays on or whatever. On the flip side, if you want to get in on the action, just ask!
4. Hygiene. Respect it. I want as little gamer smell as possible. No one likes to tell someone they smell and mean it, so please for the love of all that is holy, don't make it be me.
5. We value good sportsmanship. No whinging scrubs, no johns. If you're gonna rage, go outside and get some fresh air. If you think a game is broken then simply don't play it. Any problems with game selection, rules or organisation should be discussed outside the duration of a tournament. The forums are the best place for this.

Most of the rules are common sense already, and most of the common sense stuff is just stuff we would do if we didn't have complete moments of fail. With our attendance bigger and all, it's inevitable we have to tell people how to not fail!
