[[OHN7]] (also known as ‘Don’t Come’), was held in Sydney’s UTS, on the 7th and 8th of December 2008. The East-Coast Australian Major was a hard-pressed partnership with the Ozhadou organisation, a dedicated entity for competitive fighting games. The merge came as a decisive sign of solidarity made by the foreign Smasher, [[CAOTIC]]. | |||

==Background== | |||
The Sydney Smash Community has historically had a patchy relationship with Ozhadou. Both OHN5 and OHN6 languished in both organiser support and turnout for SSBM. Criticism drawn from the Smash community included the rejection of the event due to high entry fees with no returns. However, a dedicated effort was made to pledge support for the event in the hopes of a more formalised arrangement for future years. A rejection from Ozhadou administration to provide monetary concessions to the Smash Community did not steer the Tournament Organiser for pushing for a Mjaor event in Sydney. Soon after negotations failed, tournament information was pinned up and much interest, due to exciting new formats and promises of delivering a large scale event. | |||

Offensive attacks from two prominent Queensland Smashers had temporarily reprimanded any positive contributions until being later silenced. | |||

==Notable facts== | |||
‘Don’t Come’ holds the Australian Record for the most foreign participants of any major tournament. Significant contingents hailed from Victoria and Queensland. It is also Sydney’s largest tournament to date (Approximately 50 unique competitors over 2 days). | |||
It was the first Australian Major to successfully implement a non-partisan approach to both SSBM and SSBB. | |||
It is the only known SWF tournament in the world to officially exclude singles events from its schedule. | |||
‘Don’t Come’ payed homage to the now defunct Melee – FC series by introducing Dodgeball as a side event. | |||
Regional New South Wales (Hunter Valley/Illawarra) claim superiority over Sydney over a victorious Melee crew battle. |
