People are seeded based on total score between both the qualifiers. Double elimination. Song choice format is pick-pick-random. You may not pick a song that you’ve already picked earlier in the tournament. Top seed either gets song choice (first or second) or machine choice (left or right).
Song choices for each round:
– 13 to 16 for the first round
– 14 to 17 for the second round
– 15 to 18 for the third round
– 16-19 for the fourth round if applicable
– Round Robin 17+
If there are less than four rounds due to attendance, this will be shortened accordingly, eliminating the easier song choice ranges.
Any options that don’t include mirror or random are allowed, including excessive, lane colors, judgment position, etc.
A person is allowed any song that they are able to choose provided it lands in the difficulty range of that round. Any song that any player has unlocked can be chosen; if one person has less songs unlocked but wants to choose a song the other person has unlocked, they may do so.
Final four is round robin format, 3 out of 5 for each round. Top seed gets either song choices (first/fourth or second/third) or machine choice. Format is subject to change based on time.

Life is Beautiful
Puberty Dysthymia
Rejoin
Super Summer Sale

星座が恋した瞬間を。
Prey
Turn mods allowed
Any pad issues and arbitration MUST be called during your song. TOs will keep a close eye in case of persisting issues. IF no observable issues arise for the rest of the match, the tournament will resume.
If pad issues interfere with a match’s results, a rematch of the same song with both players switching sides may be allowed at TO’s discretion.
Rematches will only be allowed if the EX score difference is within 0-10 EX points and there is an obvious pad issue.
Once the next song is selected, the previous song’s results are recorded. No retroactive arbitration is allowed.
Highest EX score wins.
Players MUST play through their song. Pretending to fail out will result in an automatic LOSS for the song.
TO is allowed to call the end of the song early if a player stops playing midway.
But if they’re about to set a WR just let them do it, it’s kinda hype.
