Any nerds with experience hosting game tournaments and such?

I've got 4 little dudes (see: brothers) who love video games as much as I do, ages 3 to 7. We've got the Wii U, Mario Kart 8, and we're snatching up Super Smash Bros this season.

I think it would be hilarious for them if I dressed up as a referee, hosted an in-house tournament, and shoutcasted the competition.

Was wondering if anyone has any experience or ideas on how LAN tournaments are ran? Specifically, what would be a good way to fill 3 hours with said games and 4 players competitively? What would be some cool ways to reward winners and some hilarious ways to denounce losers? Handicap ideas for the less experienced?

Random question, thought I'd ask the WF crew. Happy holidays fuckos.
 


I clicked this thread thinking my experience with chess tournaments could be helpful. I was not correct.

For little dudes though, I would suggest a snack break somewhere in the middle.

Best of luck!
