Ok, perfect. See you next week!
The cap should be raised soon, so don’t worry if you haven’t signed up yet!

Also make sure you dress according to the weather! The tournament will start at 80°F weather (unfortunately) but it will cool down as the day goes on! Fortunately there are some shade filled areas nearby, but make sure to bring some water if you can!
We will fortunately be sponsored by Spin City Imports, so some (if not all) of our Hasbro Top 8 Prizes may be turned into raffle prizes!
If you can’t make the tournament, please make sure to de register so we can have an accurate head count!

Also, please make sure you have AT LEAST 3 Different Combos with NO REPEATING PARTS! We won’t have spares at the tournament, so If you don’t have these requirements, you CAN NOT COMPETE! (3 Different Beys are ALWAYS required for tournaments unless explicitly said otherwise).

If you can not make it, please de-register for an accurate head count!
Now that the tournament is fully capped, if you can’t make it, please DEREGISTER from the tournament!

You are free to come if you couldn’t sign up, but keep in mind that you will be on the waitlist, as I CANNOT go above 64 people.

If you are interested in joining the waitlist, please respond to this comment. I believe we will have some no shows (there are almost always no shows) so by joining the waitlist, you will have priority on open spots if you come to the tournament.
The challonge link is up! Go sign up here if you registered on the wbo!

IMPORTANT NEWS for Tomorrow’s Tournament!!

We are moving to a slightly NEW location. The tournament will be at the same park but a little be of a walk from the old obelisk location.

The place is called Wortham Pavilion. It has 8 larger tables for rest + 6 smaller ones that will be used for tournament matches. It also has cover so we will be protected from the rain.

All parking for the location will be FREE. However, the parking closer to the location is limited, so the earlier you arrive, the less of a walk you have to do.

Because this is a public space, it is absolutely IMPORTANT to get here early if possible to claim your parking spot and space at Wortham Pavilion. Me and Ninjablader 9 will be there around 11 at the latest, if not earlier. Feel free to come early and bring your stadiums so we can claim the space!

This change will be DM’d to everyone who signed up on the WBO plus added to the tournament site so that no one misses it.

More details about the location and parking are mentioned below! I hope to see everyone there tomorrow for the opportunity of wonderful prizes!
