The '''Community Effort Orlando''' series, or simply '''CEO''', is an annual fighting game [[tournament]] series typically held annually in Florida by {{Sm|Alex Jebailey}} and CEO Gaming. The series is widely recognized as one of the premier events for fighting games and has held events for every ''Smash'' title at least once.
The '''Community Effort Orlando Series''', or simply '''CEO''', is a fighting game [[tournament]] series held annually in Orlando, Florida. The tournament, first held in 2010 is organized and directed by Alex {{Sm|Jebailey}}. CEO is widely recognized as one of the premier event for fighting games. Many different Smash Brothers games, such as [[Melee]], [[Brawl]], [[Project M]], and [[Smash 4]], have been hosted at CEO since it's beginning.  
 
==History==
The tournament series began in 2010 in Orlando, with ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' as side events. The two games were dropped after CEO 2011, but ''Melee'' later returned alongside ''[[Project M]]'' on the official game lineup at CEO 2014, which also marked the first entry in the series to be a ''Smash'' major. Between 2014 and 2022, every tournament in the main CEO series had at least one event that reached major status, with some going as far as to reach supermajor status.
 
A notable change in the series was its location switch from Orlando to Daytona Beach in 2018 after Jebailey signed a contract with the Ocean Center. However, this switch prove controversial, as many FGC players chose not to attend CEO due to the perception that Daytona Beach's neighborhood was unfriendly. This likely had an impact on ''Smash'' as well, especially following the [[COVID-19 pandemic]]: CEO 2022 was the first CEO event since CEO 2015 where the event for the most recent ''Smash'' title was not considered a supermajor, while CEO 2023 marked the first CEO event since CEO 2011 where none of the ''Smash'' events reached major status. The contract was set to last until 2025, however Jebailey and the venue agreed to end the contract a year early, with CEO 2024 being the last CEO event held in Daytona Beach.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/Jebailey/status/1773757105054367795|title=CEO moving out of Daytona Beach}}</ref>
 
The CEO Dreamland subseries is dedicated entirely to ''Super Smash Bros.'', and features all official ''Smash'' games as its only main events. So far, two Dreamland events have been held, one in 2017 and one in 2020. However, both events faced financial issues due to low attendance and COVID-19, respectively.
