Sorry but I just love beyblade tournaments
Hey JesseObre, we're coming up to your event in the queue. Please share the match results before the end of this week so that your tournament can be processed!

You apologize within the post, knowing full well you did something wrong. Unhappy

Please be patient, new tournaments in Canada will happen, and don't ask for new tournaments in old tournament threads. Don't do this again.
Shouldn't Jesse have posted the results yet? Does anyone know why he hasn't posted the, yet?

JesseObre will still be submitting a spreadsheet, but it won’t have the results themselves on it.

Unfortunately, the participants in this event were not seeded at all ... so in accordance with our rules for Organized Play, we are not going to be able to process this event into the rankings. The winners will still be granted Gold, Silver, and Bronze Bits though!
