I'll let Erik speak to that, but we wanted the tournaments at the Escapist Expo to be a little less strict than our usual tournaments. Since we are hoping to pull lots of new people into the fighting community with this event the rules may be a bit different than the standard fighting community ruleset. We hope this doesn't upset too many people! -= All your tournaments are belong to us =-
