Depending on how much you know about competitive Brawl will depend on how much this makes sense. So back at the beginning of the year, Alpha Zealot formed the BBR-RC on Smashboards with the goal of constructing a universal ruleset for Brawl tourneys that will be used by all TOs. A stage list was released when it was announced, and it was claimed that all the future Brawl national tourneys will be using the stage list.
I ended up getting invited into the BBR-RC a couple months later to help, since I'm a TO in the New England region. It's been pretty interesting being a part of the BBR-RC and helping put together the ruleset. It's difficult to get everyone to agree to all the rules, but the first version was released publicly last Wednesday. It was a little rushed, but overall it came out pretty good.
If you're curious, the ruleset can be found here: http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=301032
It's not perfected yet, but the few issues with it will likely be re-discussed and fixed as we get more feedback on tourneys that run the ruleset. The stage list will probably change, and other little things, such as possibly the LGL rule and the Starter Stage List. But anyway, I just wanted everyone to know what's up with this. If you go to tourneys that aren't running this ruleset, try to let the TO know about the ruleset and see if he'll agree to using it. Remember, the goal of this ruleset is to get as many tourneys to follow it as possible.
