END GAME TOURNAMENT
Saturday, April 25th, 2009
Location~ Central Park, Charles B. Stover Bench (C80 on the maps) (same place as last time, I just know the name of the thing now)

Here is a link to the page for it
http://www.centralpark2000.com/database/...tover.html

Time~ 12:00 PM-Nightfall, but we'll play it by ear so everyone gets to play. Please be there as early as you can.

Afterwards, we may go and have dinner. I know of two very good sushi places. One is Sushi A-Go-Go and it's on 63rd and Broadway, and the other is... Lilli something. It's on Broadway and 57th or something. It wouldn't be hard to find. That place is more spacious than Sushi-A-Go-Go and they have bubble tea! And other stuff.

HOW TO GET THERE

Conveniently, the Museum of Natural History is right where you need to be. Ask anyone at the stations how to get there or go here for more information on travel from various places:

From Penn Station or Port Authority Bus Terminal, you are going to want to get on the C train subway uptown . This will take you a few stops to 81st Street- Museum of Natural History. When you get off of the subway, there is an entrance to the museum. Exit through the street exit to the left and you should be able to get out and find yourself facing the park right outside of the museum.

You can also take the 1 train to Broadway and West 79th Street. It is close, but taking the C train will get you closer to the park and the area you need to be. The 1 train will not stop at Port Authority Bus Terminal.

FROM THE MUSEUM/81ST AND CENTRAL PARK WEST

Okay, there is actually another subway exit right at the mouth of the Transverse. You might come out there instead of on the other side of the museum.

I want to warn everyone not to exit the park through the 79th Street Transverse if you are alone or only in a small group during sundown and NEVER after the sun has fallen below the horizon. Only enter this way. Our goal is to leave the park before nightfall. When it starts getting dark, the tunnels on the Transverse become dangerous. I will bring a Central Park Map with me. I will accompany people out of the park and to the C train when the tournament is over, and then the ones who want to catch dinner will stay with me and I will accompany you afterward.

You want to move left from the subway station until you hit 81st street. From there, you will turn right to enter the 79th Street Transverse. Stay on the left side! It is a road. There are cars traveling along the Transverse.The Transverse comes off of 81st street on the North side of the Museum. Keep walking. You will pass through a couple of tunnels. There is one particularly rocky and natural looking tunnel with pipes hanging from the ceiling. There will be an entrance to the park immediately after this tunnel to the left. Go up the stairs, then go left towards the castle and walk to the top of the castle via the main stairway.

Here you can see a diagram I have made of the castle. After you get to the top of the stairs, turn left and go down the other set of stairs there. You will encounter an area with green grassy areas and benches on either side. Walk forward, and you will see a split path. Go straight ahead to the stairs that go down around a garden of greenery, and you will be at the tournament location, which overlooks the Shakespeare Garden. There's a big stone bench with spirals on either side, and the stone bench sits atop a slightly raised oval-shaped area. It reads "Charles B. Stover". If I'm not there and nobody else is there, call my cell phone. Here are pictures of the bench in the tournament area so you know what I'm talking about.

Okay, finally.

RULES

Bring a stadium if you want to. We don't have Tornado Balance or Tornado Balance Type S. I'll be bringing MFB Attack and Beystadium Wide Square Type.
Park Rules: Just don't bring any amplified sound devices like boom boxes and we should be fine. We really don't have enough people to warrant obtaining a permit I don't think, but we have a lot more this time around so we may be asked to move.

Plastic format.

MFBs are welcome. If enough of us actually have MFB, we can have a tournament with them too.

We will be using all standard WBO Rules. Round robin, 3-point Beybattle.


Prizes-

you can put me down ill be there
Another one eh?Tongue_out

New Yorkers are incredibly lucky to have someone spend so much time organizing tournaments, so you people better go!

Also people try to get your hands on MFB; if Anubis can't host another one it would be nice to see at least one New York Event use them instead of only plastics.
That's pretty soon........I'd have waited a while to give not-so-active players a chance to realize and younger players a chance to get permission among other things that I can't think of now. It'd be a shame if only a few people turned up again. But whatever, good luck and have fun. Smile
I'll be visiting again, so I'll host tournaments when I visit. The plastic division will go on even if people bring MFBs. I doubt that everyone will have them, though, so the MFB tournament will probably be smaller. At the same time, nightfall isn't so crazy fast now so we have enough time.

And it's not that soon. It's almost four weeks away. Still, if it must be pushed ahead, it'll be pushed ahead to the first weekend in May. I'm hosting it at this time so there's room to push it ahead if I have to. We'll be pushing it close to my departure time if not and I have to ship my stuff home.
If I only have like one beyblade, can someone lend me some or something?

I don't know if I'll be able to come. I hope I can. But if someone can like lend me some, that would probably increase my chances of going.
Commie, I'll help you out. Add me on AIM or MSN.
I'll try to make this one, we'll see out it goes.
I'm going to look into going. Bad chance, though, so don't even list me on the maybe list.
would it really help anyone to push it ahead one week?

I can't go any farther than that
Is Pro Blader's Gear just the bag? Or is there something in the plastic bag? I can't tell. ^^;

I mean it doesn't matter much I was just wondering.......
This is the Pro-Bladers Gear specially designed for Beyblades. Features multiple zipper component pockets for your Beyblades, Parts and Shooters. The Shoulder Strap is adjustable for desired lengths.

EDIT: I Got this from http://www.tisinc99.com/beyh66beypro.html
EDIT:My dad Said he can take me so I can go

Then I def can't make it. Lips_sealed
You can't even make it if I make the tournament May 2nd?
i might be able to go tho it is the day before my birthday XD

but that also means that if i were to have some kind of party thing it would probably be that day... cuz its a saturday and more people are available then...

again this is just a maybe but it would be great to be able to get back into this... especially since i just found my stuff GrinDD
I forgot to mention that the map doesn't show a subway station exit right near the mouth of the transverse. You might come out there instead.

No. I shouldn't be taking time off from work.

But since it's your tournament and I absolutely love you I decided it would be morally wrong to not show up for your last tournament; I have the day off to come.
Awesome,Now only 3 more people till its a Real Tourny
Which day do you have off? The 25th?
