LIMITED FORMAT

Registration - 11AM
Start Time - 12PM

The road to the Grand Battle begins! California Bladers, this is your chance to earn paid travel expenses (if necessary) to ANIME NORTH, along with an AN Pass to play in the WBO North American Championship, GRAND BATTLE TOURNAMENT 2!!

Mandatory $5 Entry Fee = More Qualifiers + Extra Credits + Free Face Booster!
To help subsidize the high cost of flying/busing the qualifiers to Toronto, a mandatory $5 entry fee will be imposed on all Qualifier Series tournaments, regardless of whether or not a participant has a Blader Passport (if you wish to purchase a Blader Passport, the total cost would be $15 at a Qualifier Series tournament), and there will be no prize reimbursement apart from the travel expenses for the winner. We hope that everyone can understand this! The more funds we have, the bigger this championship will be! However, to show our appreciation for your cooperation and support in helping to fund the championship, all participants in Qualifier Series tournaments will receive the following:

What can I win?
The winner of this qualifier will receive the following:
  • Paid travel expenses, by plane/bus/public transit (if necessary, and whichever is cheapest) to ANIME NORTH 2014 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada for GRAND BATTLE TOURNAMENT 2.
  • An ANIME NORTH 2014 Pass
Qualifiers will be responsible for finding/paying for accommodations in Toronto, but we will work closely with each of you to make sure that you find somewhere suitable. Additionally, the winner will be required to consult with the Committee before booking their flight/bus, and then after approval, provide a booking confirmation to the WBO Committee before they can provide reimbursement for the traveling costs. We can also reimburse gas costs, but in that case, reimbursement will only take place in person after we have received gas receipts.

Thanks guys! I really appreciated the details about parking. Hopefully I see you guys and the rest of the group on the day of the tourny.
quick inquiry- are we playing on the 2nd floor again?
Most likely, seeing that there are Magic, the Gathering tournaments taking over the ground floor.

Yes we will be on the second floor. A little different area this time, up the stairs and to the Right. we have Four tables instead of Two so there will be space to sit.
Is going to be like last time with round robin or is it regular series
(Mar. 23, 2014  11:00 PM)SageFist2201 Wrote: Is going to be like last time with round robin or is it regular series

Round robin is the official standard, unless there are more then 20 participants.

So yes, like last time and times before Round Robin
