Format: Limited
Stadiums: BB-10
Surface: Grass or Concrete with cardboard and blankets
Fees: Mandatory $5 Entry Fee - even if you have a passport!
MFB Prizes: See below


Mandatory $5 Entry Fee = More Qualifiers + Extra Credits + Free Face Booster!
To help subsidize the high cost of flying/busing the qualifiers to Toronto, a mandatory $5 entry fee will be imposed on all Qualifier Series tournaments, regardless of whether or not a participant has a Blader Passport (if you wish to purchase a Blader Passport, the total cost would be $15 at a Qualifier Series tournament), and there will be no prize reimbursement apart from the travel expenses for the winner. We hope that everyone can understand this! The more funds we have, the bigger this championship will be! However, to show our appreciation for your cooperation and support in helping to fund the championship, all participants in Qualifier Series tournaments will receive the following:

What can I win?
The winner of this qualifier will receive the following:
  • Paid travel expenses, by plane/bus/public transit (if necessary, and whichever is cheapest) to ANIME NORTH 2014 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada for GRAND BATTLE TOURNAMENT 2.
  • An ANIME NORTH 2014 Pass
Qualifiers will be responsible for finding/paying for accommodations in Toronto, but we will work closely with each of you to make sure that you find somewhere suitable. Additionally, the winner will be required to consult with the Committee before booking their flight/bus, and then after approval, provide a booking confirmation to the WBO Committee before they can provide reimbursement for the traveling costs. We can also reimburse gas costs, but in that case, reimbursement will only take place in person after we have received gas receipts. If you are local to Toronto and plan on taking public transit to the venue for GRAND BATTLE TOURNAMENT 2, then you will simply have to present transfers to us when you arrive.

It would still be worth it for the Face Booster and the whole campaign, as well as the usual Credits and Beypoints.
Mar. 08, 2014  9:51 PM
 
OK, I suppose. And just to clarify, I would have to buy another Passport more than half a year early if I want two Face Boosters?
Mar. 08, 2014  9:56 PM
 
Eh, I suppose hahah. The goal was not to make anyone buy basically a second Blader Passport, but we could technically delete your current Passport Face and indeed give it a future date. I would have to discuss with Kei whether that date is the one of the tournament or one year after your current Blader Passport was bought, however the latter would make more sense.

Please try to arrive by the registration time. As you have confirmed on the thread I will not delete your name from the rolls until we start - but once we start you must be present.

I hope you're on for sure my man! You've got some Limited street cred (pun intended) and it wouldn't be the same without you!

You're on! Limited is a whole new world my friend (or is that a whole old world?) anyways, be prepared for some tough competition! Smile
Mar. 09, 2014  11:47 PM
 
Well then count me in! Also add Real_D confirmed and his username may change so keep updated on that.
Mar. 10, 2014  3:42 AM
 
Maybe at this moment. I'll try to get the final confirm soon for this.

Limited too scary for me though XD. Pieces I never had coming into play and stuff in some cases I worry about with limited. I am afraid my 2011 Top Tiers won't work this will be tough and my first limited event. I hope I'm just over thinking it.

That it is, first in our first one, .500 in our second. I think I'm starting to work some combos up that should work though.

Yo I'm Coming to this tournament count me in.

His Beyblades and launchers, and that is it. Perhaps plan for some snacks, but regarding the Beyblade tournament itself, that is all he needs.

Also don't forget a launcher (and ripcord if you have a ripcord launcher.)!
