THE PARK OFFICIALS MAY ASK US TO MOVE. We have a lot more people than expected. PM me to get my cell phone number. If you show up and we are not there, you can call the number to find out where we are. I can't be responsible for people who do not heed my warning.

Alright people, we just had a tournament in NJ so now it's time for a tournament in Central Park. Let's do this.

Enter the Frozen Garden Cup.

Here are the two videos from the Autumn Shakespeare Tournament:

FROZEN GARDEN CUP
Saturday, February 14th, 2009 (Raindate is Sunday, February 15th)
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. The reason this is an hour and a half earlier than the last one is because nightfall is coming upon us much more quickly now in the winter. It is dark by 5 PM.

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:

http://www.amnh.org/museum/welcome/direc...?src=pv_vi

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

The map is revised now because the subway station doesn't dump you off right at the mouth of the transverse. So are the instructions.

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, MFB Balance, and MFB Stamina Stadiums.

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.

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

The first tournament will be the ice tournament. It will be conducted in either a frozen MFB Attack or a frozen MFB Balance. It will be plastic format.

Here are some pictures of an ice stadium:

Deikailo was on OtC a long time ago. She attended the East Coast Championship and the World Championships.

This tournament is going to be epic.

This is where everyone comes together. It's everything we've always trained for. I can feel it~


This is the grand battle, everyone. Prepare yourselves.
Don't forget the North American Championships. ;]

I ranked in the East Coast. On the Beyblade website, I'm the girl in the standings when you view the picture of the winners for the east coast.

Evan, my friend Carmelo is coming, too. Don't forget Josh (Ryuki). He'll prolly bring Jairo.

Oh, yeah haha. I remember you now!

Have fun everyone if I cant make it =(

I really hope you can make it Pinoy. This is gonna be a really awesome tournament.

Also, we do have a lot of people this time around. The park officials may ask us to move. If they do... well, that's too bad for people who are late. If you don't feel you can make it there on time, PM me for my phone number. If you don't, I won't be responsible for people who show up and find that we're in a different area. It's your responsibility to get my number.

As much as I'd love to attend this tourney, as the weather is starting to get milder and a lot better, I cannot go as I am heading to the Poconos with the Mrs. for Valentines weekend. I'm sorry. If there is another rescheduling then I'll definitely enter, but if it's on the 14th;(and I'm not asking you to change it just for me!) I will not be able to. D: <33

I'm sorry to hear that. I really want to meet you. We should just meet up sometime in the city... I'm free almost all the time. x3;
"For which activities are special events permits needed?
Special events permits are required for events/activities where twenty or more people will be present. School picnics, birthday parties, and field days all require a special events permit."

Alright guys, you heard it. If there are twenty or more people, then there's a chance we might run into trouble. As long as there are less than twenty of us, it's fine. If you're bringing anyone just to watch, count the numbers.

So please don't bring big groups of people without alerting me first because it could put the event in jeopardy.

Currently we are up to fourteen confirmed attendees and a total of 22 including the "maybes". Just keep that in mind. I mean, it's really awesome, but yeah.

If in the future we have events that top twenty for sure, I'll need to obtain a permit and probably charge like five dollars entrance or something minimal like that.
Feb. 08, 2009  5:43 AM
 
I really doubt they will give you any trouble.
Feb. 08, 2009  5:44 AM
 
I don't think there's going to be an issue either, but they could if they wanted to. We aren't really in the middle of some open area, either. We're all in a relatively small area where we could be "disturbing" the people in the park.
Feb. 09, 2009  1:03 AM
 
That ice stadium blew my mind! When you guys do go through with this tournament we need vids of the stadium in action.
Feb. 09, 2009  1:15 AM
 
I'm hoping there is a night when it is cold enough to freeze the stadium. It has really warmed up over the past few days and I cannot do the first stage of the freezing until it is cold enough.

Looks like I'll be here. My mom is even considering blading too this time(possibly but she may not even come). Ozzy should also be able to come. Ill check on him and see whats up.

Deikailo suggested we do this in blocks and then have the winners of each block fight. With fifteen people, if we did Round Robin all the way, it would total like 109 matches or something.

We're still figuring out the exact way we're going to do this. My favorite idea is to have three blocks of five and then have the winners fight Round Robin style as well to determine the three places.
Feb. 10, 2009  12:26 AM
 
My mom is 40 somethin, but she is pretty good with attack customs and she made one upper attacker combo of her own that beats me every so often. As for the blocks, it sounds better than round robin. I think the plan you also have is good Anubis with the 3 sets of 5. That sounds like the most efficient way

Lol, not at all

Alright guys, I'm going to be arriving in Penn Station at either 10:39 AM or 11:08 AM. You can meet me in front of the Tracks bar by the LIRR main timetable at 11:10, but I won't stay there very long. If I don't have the ice stadium, I might stay there for a few minutes, but I need you to plan on being on time. I'll be there with White Afi, VinVulpis, Deikailo, and Bluezee.

Also like I said, I may not have the ice stadium. Please don't carp at me if I can't get it made. There's so many people now that we'd have to skip the ice tournament anyway and it would only be there for free battle.
Feb. 10, 2009  3:08 AM
 
I dare someone to carp! Anubis does enough by just making these tournaments and lugging his stuff and making us prizes and getting them for us for NO PROFIT but for the fun and spirit of blading. He deserves a thank you for all he does, so thank you Anubis. Anyone who has a problem with that can deal with me personally if necessary. Bitching over some ice shows you werent really in this to blade so there I said it like it or not. Thanks again Evan =).

Thank you <3

YOU'VE SHATTERED MY HOPES AND DREAMS! I wanted to battle in a stadium as cold as my heart. *Sobs to Hawthorne Heights and slits wrists horizontally with a shaving razor*
