I'm planning to host a major tournament starting probably in mid-August. This is a draft of a rules post to gather feedback, but mainly so that I can copypaste it later. Though I guess you could copypaste this for any tournament.

Requirements
NA Copy of Duodecim Dissidia Final Fantasy
PPSSPP 1.1.1-222 (Adam Build) 32bit
Hamachi
Rules
Ruleset: Official
Feral Chaos banned
Infinites banned
Hacked Items banned
Any other form of cheating (CWcheat, NitePR, FreeCheat, etc.) banned
1-hit chase (if you chase after a chase BRV, it must be an empty chase)
Tournament format and rules:
Double elimination
All sets are best of 5 matches
Save ALL your matches and send the replays to thedissidiaforums@gmail.com.
Any rage-quitting behavior, be it "softly" (pressing Start > giving up the match) or "hardly" (closing the PPSSPP, etc.) will result in a disqualification from the tournament as per the requirements of the previously mentioned point.
Something about the schedule
Counterpicking system
Tournament stages:
Top Floor, Lunar Sub, Sky Fortress Bahamut, Order's Sanctuary, World of Darkness, Old Chaos Shrine, Kefka's Tower, Planet's Core, Crystal World, Edge of Madness
Starter stages:
To be decided
All other stages, as well as the Omega variant of all stages, are banned.
Match 1: Only the 3 starter stages will be available and they will be chosen on a smash striking system. Players must decide who gets to strike a stage out first or decide it with a coin toss. After this decision:
Player A chooses to strike out one of the starter stages
Player B chooses one of the 2 remaining stages to play on.
Double blind pick
Both players pick their character and customize at will.
Matches 2, 3, 4, 5: All of the tournament stages can be used now
Winner of previous match bans one of the stages of the tournament stages
Dave's stupid rule: you cannot pick a stage in which you already won a match
Loser of previous match picks one of the remaining stages.
Double blind pick
Note that players can customize at any point.
How does double blind pick work?

I want to hear feedback on the rules and also on the writing.
Things that need to be decided:
1- Decide on the starter stages. Right now I have three possibilities: Top Floor + Lunar Sub + OS OR Top Floor + Lunar Sub + SFB OR Top Floor + WoD + OCS
2- Stage lists can be presented horizontally on a quote thing, or vertically inside a spoiler thing. Not sure which is better.
3- It's kinda awkward the way double blind was explained, but the alternative is to explain it twice which is redundant. Or to explain it before talking about stages, which is also awkward.
4- Changes to make the post look pretty
