When I say older members, I include people 11 and above because I'm judging by the tournament's turnout haha. There were few members above 13 and many of the original people who showed up were younger members.

Speaking of younger members, we also had a kid join today during the tournament who had been browsing with his Dad since April. They seemed like nice people, and the dad got some pictures too.

"In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very little, yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face, is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so. But there are times when a critic truly risks something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the new. The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations. The new needs friends. Last night, I experienced something new: an extraordinary meal from a singularly unexpected source. To say that both the meal and its maker have challenged my preconceptions about fine cooking is a gross understatement. They have rocked me to my core. In the past, I have made no secret of my disdain for Chef Gusteau's famous motto, "Anyone can cook." But I realize, only now do I truly understand what he meant. Not everyone can become a great artist; but a great artist can come from anywhere."

How many people came ? How many of the confirmed participants ?

I asked Divine. Around 33 or 32 I believe.

:djdisappointed:

awsome time, had lots of fun, congrats sniper on the win in 1st place, although the tourney was somewhat disorganized,i still had fun. Kai-V how do i become an official judge because i would like to be a judge for tourneys.

Can i be a judge? (I've judged many times before)

-Shadow x 9365

The tourneys over. If you just want a judge face, thats off topic

:djdisappointed:

gumen (sorry)

congrats to all winners
so mad i couldnt participate

---

i thought it was 2day

---

-Shadow x 9365

Sorry for a lot of confusion guys. i just trying to make it a lot better than the one I had back in May, which it was in my opinion. And for those of you who thought it was disorganized, try hosting a tourney with 32 people then you'll really get to see how tough it was especially for me since it had to be 90 degrees outside and I had to deal with a million questions. This was a lot tougher than it looks. Plus with Challonge moving slow, it had backed things up.

Congrates especially to-

1st-Sniper (AGAIN)
2nd-Ceasar 300
3rd-Nexus
4th-je497

Great job to my MAIN judges (Those who judged for most of the tourney)-

Thanks for competing everyone!!

I'm up for a battle with anyone who dares CHALLENGING THE DIVINE BLADER. The God of beyblade will happily destroy any and all of his opponents.

Lesson learned from this and my tournament: Challonge sucks.

but still, great tourney.

:djdisappointed:

---

I failed bad, mainly because I faced 15 and ups, or my L hasbro laucher did not work. I am checking(accually, spying) on BBG for combinations xD

---

And Kav-V, send me pms on the beys I should get.

---

I am going to make an oath: Next tournament, I will not let most of you beat me.

My story!

Dude you faced me I am 14 and I won plus you need a string launcher to power your launch a bit more

Lesson learned from this and my tournament: Challonge sucks.

Challonge sucks? I use it for all my tournaments. Once the Round Robin is over then i make a bracket in Office. Then submit everything afterwards. Challonge is one of the best sites out there. Unless you have access to mantis or something.

Age really doesn't make much of a difference when battling someone. Im 23 and Ive lost to 14-15 year olds before. Its just about trying to improve your skill and learning from your loss. Take what you've learned at this tournament and improve on it.

Lesson learned from this and my tournament: Challonge sucks.

but still, great tourney.

Challonge does not suck. If your internet connection is slow (like because you are using a tethered 3G connection in the middle of a highly trafficked park in the middle of one of the world's most populous cities...) then every site you use is going to feel slow.

You can't make NYC any smaller, but try to use a 4G/LTE connection if possible, and a direct device connection is usually faster than tethering to a mobile hot spot or phone. Tethering introduces lots of connection errors at the device level that can mess things up even if the mobile connection speed is fast.

great tournament
sad i lost but i will do better next time

Signature was too large. Read the rules.

If anyone in the nj or ny area is selling a light launcher 2
pm me about it

@ Ga'Hooloene Thanks

I can't wait for the next tourney. Hopefully I can try to host another one in a more shaded or much less populated area.

As you can see from the Beypoint Queue topic, there are problems with the results.
