6PM EDT isn't great a time for me, at least not to start, being 11pm UK time.
I like the idea of squeezing it into a weekend
If it's friday, I could realistically do 2PM-7PM EDT after I get back from work.
Saturday I could manage all day, though I have plans in the evening for ~3 hours, so probably 2AM-1PM then 4PM- 7PM I could smash,maybe a little later depending on how long I get back.
Sunday 2AM-7PM is feasibly doable.
As for stages, I think magicant should certainly be banned. The AI helpers are just unfair in 1v1. Corneria and brinstar were banned in melee, probably for good reasons. Boxing ring as a walk off with the potentially bs stage lights is probably a no-no too.
I actually think the tomodachi life stage should be allowed. It seems fair with no stupid boss shenanigans. It was also allowed in a recent official nintendo tournament ( for reference, they allowed Arena Ferox, Battlefield, Final Destination, Tomodachi Life, Yoshi’s Island).
Reset bomb forest and tortimers island do have damaging items, but they're pretty light weight, and i think workable around.
eShop codes do seem like the best idea for prize, but it's important to remember they're region locked (and value locked, while the money codes are more than you suggested for prizes initially, at least in the uk, even for the smallest denom vs suggested first place value.)
