There is obviously a huge interest in New York, but when one of the two only Members I trust to host a tournament posts one, most of you cannot go ? Of course, it was last minute, but so were the others before that.I don't want to be offensive or anything like that but New York or New Jersey never failed except on the person you trust's tournament
Mistakes happen once and we've learned from them
And yes, there has been tournaments before that were created on a short notice but they were like five or six days before the tournament, not 2 days
And those tournament were in a warm weather so most parents couldn't have said no because of the weather
Today would have been a better day but next week would have been the best choice

Wow, you have no idea at all. Go read up on the several previous tournaments that happened years ago when you were not even here, go read up on Deikailo, and then come back to tell me that no failure has ever happened before in New York.
And no, mistakes happened several times, not once at all.

Now, Deikailo hosts no more tournaments and a new era has begun
More bladers are hosting tournaments nowadays and there has only been that one incident since Deikailo's last tournament
We have to forget about the old New York and welcome the new one that is run by a more professional group of bladers instead of only one blader
Amazing that so many people wanted to host tournaments in New York....and only 5 people?
Someone needs to learn to advertise that there a tournament going on here and there. otherwise your short and have to postpone/cancel the tournament.
Now if i were a NYC resident I would obviously make tournament every month.
Also...champ Deikailo gets so many people per tournament she host, is she sells things and have spare parts for bladers and new bladers. Other then her scamming the seller/middleman. Alot people would obviously rely on her as a host.

Even though Deikailo did a lot of sly things, she did have good advertising ideas like hosting in PS63 and King's Games.
Well when ever the next tournament is. I'm down for.it. I been itching to blade.

And all the other tournaments except [Pyro]'s and laidbackblader's in New York had messed-up results often with no proper finals.
And some of them did not even use legal stadiums.
And some hosts other than Deikailo disappeared with the money and were never heard of again.
Honestly, I have no idea how you could even question something I say like that. I obviously know more about what has happened in all those years in New York than you, so just believe me. I have always done what is best for this organisation, and each region has to be treated case by case. New York cannot afford other failures, this is final.
Guys, I really wish joseph317 and I could help. Unfortunately, I work almost all weekends. Especially in the winter. Sad, because we live right on the border of New York and New Jersey. Maybe in the spring :-)
