Sup, ya'll? This is what we, the Texan Bladers, have been waiting for! A tourney in Central Texas! If anyone (who has a WBO account), wants to join this tourney, post in this thread! And if anyone has a TT stadium, AWESOME! Tell me if you have one, describe it, and if it really is one, bring it! Here's ALL the info:
Date: 8/20/11
Place: The tournament will be at Zilker Park. It's a place in the city of Austin that has a lake, a snack shop, a playscape (for younger kids who may be bored), a train, picnic tables with a roof (if it rains we'll definitely move there), and overall is a very nice, big park that has something for everyone. (Don't worry I'll find some kinda map if you need it.)
Expected Number of People: I'm having a maximum of 24 people. I am thinking that around 16 to 24 people will attend this tourney. If only 8 people make it, 2 prizes (1st and Runner Up). FOR EVERY 8 PEOPLE, I WILL ADD A PRIZE, SO...SPREAD THE WORD!
So far we have:
1. JAM20100511 (Bringing orange TT Attack Stadium)
2. Beyblader51
3. Tokao
4. beymaster78
5. clawna365
6. MatteoBlade
7. JBladerMS
8. AnakinBlader
9. Gamecreator916
Format: This tournament will probably be in a Round Robin Block format, since I have experienced this before, but if 12 or less that 12 people make it, I will change it to a Round Robin format. If I can get 4 stadiums, I'd have 6 people in each, then tak the top 2 from each, then have a Round Robin with those top 2s. Don't be alarmed if the format changes to Double Elimination, as I may have to change the format becuase of the number of stadiums.
Additional Info:
ENTRANCE FEE: AT ALL WBO EVENTS, YOU MUST PAY A $5 ENTRANCE FEE.
Prizes: For every 8 people, I will add a prize, starting out with 2 prizes for the starting 8 people. Here's what the prizes will probably be:
1. TT HELL KERBECS BD145DS!
2. Hasbro Thermal Pisces T125ES
3. Hasbro Burn Fireblaze 135MS
Maps: I would gladly find a link to a Google Map if you guys need it.
Stadiums: We have only 1 stadium, bu that fits the number of people we have.
Rules: Do you guys want me to skim the rules over at the tourney, or you guys read the rules beforehand so we can get straight to battling? I will have a set of rules printed, but reading it would also take some time. I'd suggest you skim he rules before you come.
Blankets: If any of you guys have a big, preferably thick blanket, tell me. It will be used so when a Bey has an out, it won't scratch up. It happened to me and my WD, and I didn't like that.
If you guys have questions or think I forgot something, please PM me or email me.
