I have no Idea when the next Raleigh tournament will be...
That question probably didn't even belong in this thread, anyways. He should have gone straight to the NC thread to begin with.
Just letting everyone know:
Judges need to be there by 1230. Ill be there at 1215 to set up.
Competitors: Registration ENDS at 130. Player/Parent meeting.
Tournament starts Promptly at 145

I should be there around 1 along with EL7 and smallfry9730. I might even give BIG BANG JORDAN a ride if he wants one...
Ok ill add you. Do you have any experience hosting tournaments? Do you have the necessary stadiums?
[/quote]
To be perfectly honest, no, I myself have never hosted a tournament, but would maybe like to start... and about the necessary stadiums, I had a BB-10, but bad things (that I shall not speak of) happened to it

whoops my bad, sorry for accidentally deleting some of the quotes lol sorry...

Also I forgot to ask, you enter one combo and stick with that combo right? Just making sure because I've prepared quite a few combos that I'll need to practice with the early birds before the tournament, thus it might spoil my combos to stiff competition before the tournament, giving them a heads up on what to expect... I look forward to competing with you all at the tournament this weekend.

Keyword: Matches, not rounds. Last tournament, I used a variety of beys, being unpredictable can put you at a great advantage. Prediction is key, especially when Dark spams Stalling Clause.

Ya that is what im known for. But i like to keep it fair.
Count Bazooka in for this tourniment baring any unseen emergencies. I have an attack stadium if needed that we can bring. What time is registration etc?
see you there
OOps, just saw the time etc... confirm us in. Williamsburg Va will be represented. I was a bit confused about getting a passport or paying when I got there. Does my passport cover the $5 fee for the host store?
thanks

You're coming from Williamsburg? WOW.
Anyway, the passport will only cover the WBO FEE. It will NOT exempt you from the STORE FEE. This event, being held at Tier Zero, has a store fee of $5. Your Blader Passport will not exempt you from the store fee here or at any other venue with a store fee.

JK, Dark you should really post this stuff in the OP.

Very unusual but some new bladers unknowingly use anti-meta, thus being able to take top tier head on. I am still trying to learn to use MF Blitz Unicorno S130 RF correctly, if my banking improves by the time of the tournament I'll use it most definitely. I had to throw away my "Gasher" CW and CH120 though, but I'll buy a Dark Cancer soon. Yeah, I know it's plain stupid and pointless to throw away such valuable parts but hear me out on this one; EVERY single time I use a Hasbro part in a tournament, I'm bound to lose (e.g Gasher, CS, Aquario).(Jan. 09, 2012 12:38 PM)hitsugiya Wrote: Also, expect customs too. Literally every blader from every tournament in NC I've been in uses customs. That's how heavily encouraged they are. Also, as stated in the OP we recommend you read the rules bmoor96 if you haven't already.
Yeah, you also wanna do some research and practice with combos. People at these tournaments use unusual and powerful combos sometimes. It would be best to practice with combos to get a good result...
It is not as though knowing one of someone's potential combos means you have a particularly higher chance of beating them... especially since you just outed yourself as being aware and opened yourself up to a counter-counter-combo...
and, hitsugiya, I suspect your superstitious idea about Hasbro is 6000000% more to blame for your losses than the parts are.

Thank you Hazel. Just because some of us at the competitions use Hasbro (i.e. me, smallfry, EpicLibra7, etc.), does not mean they are any much worse than others who use TT or Sonokong. Same with using parts. Maybe statistically TT is better, but In my opinion, a part is a part is a part is a part...
In no offense or hatred to anybody, but that's how I feel about parts from TT and Hasbro, and my philosophy believes that everybody will have an equal chance to win at this tournament, the next one, and all the others after that......

So differences between companies shouldn't make a definite impact on the performance of the part, other than mold variations, and slight weight differences of course.(Jan. 11, 2012 12:26 AM)Hazel Wrote: hitsugiya, I suspect your superstitious idea about Hasbro is 6000000% more to blame for your losses than the parts are.

Before the tournament begins, there is usually freeplay amongst everyone and eachother, so of course you may participate. Just try not to expose the combos you'll be using before the actual tournaments begins, otherwise, your opponents will be able to build counters to your combos.

Yeah, that's what I usually do. Exposing your best or starting beys can be costly in a tournament. Counters will beat you every time... I would try certain strategies and see what works best...

If one of you guys are coming early, I might want to test my Wing's defensive capabilities, not to use during the tourney, just because I'm curious.(Jan. 11, 2012 4:17 AM)ლ(ಠ益ಠლ) Wrote: Before the tournament begins, there is usually freeplay amongst everyone and eachother, so of course you may participate.
