New Year, Old Formats!

[Image: lego-new-year.jpg]

Hi everyone! This is the official thread for our January tournament being held Bethesda Marriott in Bethesda, MD on Saturday, January 19, 2013.

New Year, Old Formats! will consist of the 3 tournaments celebrating the 3 Beyblade formats we said goodbye to after Zero-G hit the scene: MFB, HMS, and Plastics!

In addition to having Zero-G products for sale I will also have a limited selection of brand new HMS and Plastics for sale for those who are interested in playing in the 2 older formats. Prices for the older beys are a bit more due to rarity, but will run between $25-40 on the low end. PM me for more details.

Location: The Bethesda Marriott Hotel: 5151 Pooks Hill Road, Bethesda, MD in the Norwood Room? Ask at the front desk as I'm not sure which room we are in now. http://www.marriott.com/hotels/maps/trav...-marriott/

The Bethesda Marriott Hotel is located just west of the intersection of 495, 270, and 355 (Rockville Pike). Parking in the surrounding neighborhood is available for free on Pooks Hill Road, but space is limited and first come first served! Otherwise there is parking in the Marriott Lot for $15.

Registration: 11:00am - Noon
MFB Start time: Noon-thirty on the dot
HMS and Plastics Start time: Approximately 3pm
Format: TBD depending on number of bladers
MFB Stadium: BB-10 Attack
HMS and Plastics Stadium: Tornado Attack

January's MFB tournament saw 6 of 22 Bladers go to the finals. 3 were no strangers to the winner's circle, but we also had 3 first-time finalists! Way to go Sonikkubey, rip blader 3 and torchgasher!

Here are the results!

MFB
1st place: geetster99
2nd place: Jonâ„¢
3rd place: Tech
4th place: torchgasher

And while we didn't make it all the way to plastics this month, we did have 12 Bladers in the HMS tournament with 4 going to the finals. geetster keeps racking up the wins, but it looks like Tech is trying to give him a run for his money! Smile

HMS
1st place: geetster99
2nd place: Tech
3rd place: *AJ*
4th place: beymaster

The next tournament is going to be back to Zero-G in the 2nd half of February, and we will do the plastics tournament then too!

See you soon!
