Heh, whoops, hopefully things turn out better. I should be able to take the quiz again today, actually, wish me luck.

Its all good Zephyr just keep looking over the material. Don't apologize just keep studying and you'll get there. I guess its tough because they want to make sure these things run smooth. Don't worry bro when you get ill be the first person to sign up. Just be patient! Oh when you do something set up regardless of tournament ranking or not im challenging you okay? Wild Bey rules got it?! Non stop until a beyblade pops!

I wouldn't have it any other way, thanks for the encouragement, hopefully this time I get it, then we can figure some stuff out.

Erm... So...something happened. Shindog replied to my quiz submission after a day and then archived it so I couldn't see what it said. Now I can take the quiz again, so what does that mean?

I have no idea. I took the quiz before they changed it. Just PM him!

Erm, actually, just finished my Organizer Interview, joyos said as far as he's concerned, it's a pass, if we're lucky, maybe we get to see some Houston tourneys soon! (Passed the quiz, btw.)
Alright, now that it's official, does anybody have any ideas for a potential tournament? I would very much appreciate everybody's feedback so I can make the event the best it can be. Thanks for everyone's support on the roller coaster it took to get here, too!

I'm not near that area but I have an idea, how about you start off with an Unranked tournament somewhere near you, because starting off with a Ranked Tournament may be much if you've never held a tournament, so try hosting an unranked, again, this is my opinion and you can completely ignore me if you want

Let's go! Texas is back on the board! Congrats on becoming an organizer! If you need any help, I'll try to give you some advice, and help with judging if I can make it down. I know some people in Texas so whenever you make the tournament, I'll make sure to send out plenty of PMs.
Texas is back! I could make Any Tournaments but Nothing from my parents yet

ZephyrDraco Congrats on becoming an organizer

Thanks so much, that would be amazing! Thanks for all of your support in the past, it was definitely a big help for getting through the, ahem, weirdness.

That sounds great, probably what I would rather do. I'll move onto Ranked in a later tourney, but for now, just the challenge of simply running the tournament is the first hurdle.
Congratulations ZephyrDraco on becoming an organizer! We, Team Galaxy Stars (World Bladers LLC) spoke with Shindog when we met at his tournament in Cali and just finished with USN in Austin. We are located in Dallas and in The Woodlands in Houston and wanted to start things up as well. We have everything to go but with work hadn’t had the time to take the quiz and interview as well.
Would love to collaborate and help out if you like.
Guys also in Tyler East texas are trying to get “certified” as well.
Glad to see Texas starting to represent :-)

Wow, that's amazing! Did you want me to join your team? I know there's a "team" function on the WBO, but is that what you're talking about? 


Smile Let's go Texas! I think I might put a little add-on to my signature, feel free to do the same if you'd like.

Hey ZephyrDraco sure buddy we are always looking to have cool people who are as excited about blading as us on the team. 
USN was great meeting you and your fam; are you all on a team?
Our team Youtube channel is World Bladers and just started our Facebook group World Bladers.
We are actually planning to travel to Virginia for the WBO event on Sept. 5th.
For now Still trying to figure out the team settings and signatures for everyone K.O_kid, BeyBey_Boss, BurstCity_kid, Momma_Bear, and myself. LOL
First though I was mentioning if you or USN do host an event, if we can make it, we can always lend a hand, judge, bring some stadiums etc.

My family is just there to support me. I have to have an adult at my tournament and think that it's good that I am hosting events. As for the team settings, all you have to do is put it in your signature. I don't think that there is any way to make an official recognized team, if you know what I mean by that. In the future, before I set an event cap, I'll ask what date you guys can make it for that way I can raise the cap. (If you are willing to bring a stadium and judge.)
Hey USN sure thing sounds great. 
Schedule does get hectic but given enough notice be happy to help out judging, stadiums etc. 
congrats again great event.

Wow, that sounds really cool, but I think I'll have to pass on your offer. Don't think I can make the travel, but keep doing what you're doing! It would be amazing if you could help out at a tournament, so let me know if you're planning on coming through the area, and I would really appreciate the help. (Also, I'm not on any teams, but I'm good flying solo for now)

if you're in the woodlands we're practically neighbors because I'm in Atascocita! Not an organizer but definitely willing to contribute to the local scene! I'm an older guy with kids as well so its nice to see more adults that are a part of this as well.

LoneStarBlader that’s cool 😎 Same here. Great to know we are neighbors and for sure when time allows trying to get other parents and kids involved in the Houston area.
Of course, as soon as summer ends, I am swamped with schoolwork, and, as of now, it seems unlikely I'll be able to host a tournament with my current workload. It might be a challenge, but hopefully I can make it work somehow. Just thought I wanted to give everyone an update and also apologize for the lack of anything new. USN, are you planning on hosting a tourney soon? I assume school's starting up for you too, so just wanted to check.

Most likely will be hosting in late September of Early October. It will be on the weekend because I too have school. Lucky for me, the homework is not too bad, so I will have some time. Currently trying to find a time that works for both me, and a family that can bring 2 bey stadiums.

Oh, cool. Hopefully I'll be able to host one some time during the holidays. I have so much homework, I've been forgetting to check the site... Nice to hear there won't be a big absence on tournaments these days. Wish I could come, but, y'know... homework.
Hey, I just joined this group because my 4 year old son is really interested in competing in a local tournament. We live in Spring, TX, please keep me posted.

Hello everyone, I'm back from the dead and was wondering how you guys would feel about a tourney maybe the weekend before Christmas? It would be my first one btw, so pointers welcome!
