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.

How many people showed up?
8 people participated. Kinda sad, but what do you expect from a small city like Texas?
I forgot, I didn't host the tourny, I just helped alot. Ask Jam. I think 9 or 8.
I did expect like 24 people, but it was on a short notice.
Yeah it wasn't alot.
Tokao, are you usin' a phone or computer?
Your Bey PWNED everyone! I forgot to give everyone the Wendy's coupons. LOL
Phone Unhappy Yeah its slow.

I hope we can all do this again sometime!

I came back with an extra Beyblade. Did anyone lose a Bey (count your Beys up)?

Can you please let me know when there will be an event again in or near Austin, TX? My 9 year old son is really into Beyblades and I'd love to take him to an event sometime!
Hey. There will be a tourney at Toy's R Us on October 22nd from 2 pm -4 pm. Obviously, I'm not hosting the Toy's R Us one, but the next WBO tourney closest to Austin will be in Katy, TX in December sometime. If I don't hear from Tokao, I'll be the host of an AUSTIN tourney in the next few months.
