I'm back! As everyone else has made clear, the tournament was great! I also had a great time hanging out with you guys, in the time that I had. For those who I hadn't met before, it was a pleasure meeting you! It's too bad I wasn't able to make it to Real Thailand ... For those of you who I didn't tell, one of my two friends that came, came from Michigan basically to just see me, so it would have felt wrong to just go to Real Thailand and not do something he wanted to do (because I dragged him to BWR lol. Admittedly, he did say that he had fun). We ended up going back to the hotel to put our stuff away ... and as we arrived he said he was too tired to go anywhere. And by then you guys had left ...
It's hard managing time between two separate groups of friends/people in the span of two days! The entire experience as a whole was even better than last year; I enjoyed every moment. I am already eagerly anticipating next year.

We got 37 participants this year, so if MFB is launched in North America next year, things are going to be insane (even more than this year!).

How many committee members entered the tournament? I'm sure it was only Anubis, Khel, and myself. It couldn't have been an all-committee final!
LOL, I love how in the Group A round robin, when it was our turn to face each other, we just sat there staring into space, waiting for someone to choose their Beyblade. Hurray for stall clause!
Your choice for the 3rd place match truly caught me by surprise as well (I won't spoil what it was, so people have something to look forward to in the video!), especially considering the stadium. If you hadn't missed the stadium in the first two matches, you may have beaten me!

That was an intense match and everyone was holding their breath. We tied twice and he ended up beating me 3-2. He's amazing. It was the highlight of the tournament for me.
I totally agree, one of the best matches in the tournament, if not the best.

Also, I had a few ranked battles, and my only losses were versus Anubis.
BEYBLADE
BIGGER WAR ROOM @ AN2010!!!!!!!
I would have beaten you if we did more than one ranked battle!
I will be uploading all of my (unedited) video and photos ASAP!
