Yes, you read that right, Spinoff is back on!

After a little negotiation the guys at the MCM Expo have agreed to give us some space for the tourney. Awesome, right? Now here's the hard part: forget everything you have previously heard about Spinoff. Seriously, it'll just confuse the hell out of you. Let's start a fresh, okay?

Okay. Spinoff is now a two day event. It'd be great if you could make both days but if you can only make one then that is fine too. We will have the main tourney on Saturday 23rd. It is scheduled to start at 12:00. This may be pushed back till like 12:30 if people are stuck in queues, etc, but no later than this. If you want to take part you must have registered before then. We will have free battles and demos to the other Expo attendees on both the Saturday (when we're not doing the tourney) and the following Sunday. We may have a mini tourney on the Sunday, depending on the number of people.

The actual tourney will start at roughly midday on the Saturday. If you've put down that you're coming and I can see you're not there then I can wait a bit but I'd like to get it started around that time. I'll post a picture or something later but for now, my number is *number deleted because you don't need it anymore*. Use as appropriate (running late, can't find us, etc.)

As Spinoff is now being hosted inside the Expo, you must buy a ticket. You can either buy a Fast Track Ticket that will allow you early and relatively queue free access to the event, or you can turn up on the day and buy a ticket when you get there. However, if you do this then you may have to wait in some pretty long queues. For that reason, it is advised that you order tickets in advance. For more inormation, please look here: http://www.londonexpo.com/show_information/tickets.html

Transport to the Excel Center is easy as it has very close train and DLR links. Just start at the Excel Center and work backwords to your house! If you have any queries on how to get there then please PM me so I can help you out. Alternatively, this may be of help: http://www.excel-london.co.uk/visitors/travel

It would be nice if you could PM me or post to say you're definitely coming but if not then don't worry. In any case, spread the word and bring along as many friends as you can!

If you have any other questions or queries please ask here or PM me. I'll be sure to answer quickly. If it is a smaller question I would appreciate it if you PMed me rather than spamming up the thread. Thanks a lot in advance. Wink



Obviously the most important part is that we all get to meet and battle each other, but, as an added bonus, we have some prizes. Wink

~Saturday~
1st Prize: 4x RBV2
2nd Prize: 3x RBV2
3rd Prize: 2x RBV2

~Sunday~
1st Prize: 1x RBV2
2nd Prize: 1x RBV2
3rd Prize: 1x RBV2

For those of you who are curious, RBV2 is a pretty awesome RB. Most of the blades in it have good parts, and there's the chance of getting a Libra which is obviously a staple part. Here's what you could win:

Aquario 105B
Aquario DF145SF
Bull DF145HF
Libra 100F
Libra D125HF
Pisces D125BS
Virgo 100B
Virgo 125BS



It seems an attendance list is necessary so.....here we go. Joyful_3 It'd be great if anyone who is 'unconfirmed' could confirm whatever their answer may be as soon as possible. I do apologise if there are any mistakes, I'm sure you can understand that with all the 'it's on', 'no it's off', 'no it's on', 'no it's off' stuff, it is a little confusing. ^^;

The SpinOff was a big suprise yesterday I really enjoyed it. Wink Thanks Rocky you did great!
It was amazing the amount of Bull's were used by the noobs. XD There were only a few Storm Pegasis.

Remember that guy with Flame Saggitario who thought he could beat us all. I wasn't bothered to battle him Cool

The beybattle filming started late HD won the first battle.
Argh, I dont like not being to view videos. I dont know what they look like.....Pinching_eyes_2
Sorry I couldn't make it this time but from the looks of things from watching the videos, the tournament was a lot of fun! Are there any plans for another tournament at the October MCM Expo? I'll probably be able to make that one since I'm thinking of going for my birthday with some frineds.
There will be a summer meet in July/August when nearly everyone is free (not on holiday/work), but we may look into it, we'd probably focus on it after summer meet.

Espio said it was this....

1st - Munkers
2nd - Xcel
3rd - LeeDraciel
Oh ok! Because I was worried.
oh yeh and rocky and espio dis you see a pegasis with libra's bottom by any chance.
Finally, I am able to reply, Spinoff was great fun and I would love doing it again but it is a shame I lost twice to a damn Libra, it's not fair. Crying

Anyway, It was nice to meet everyone and I don't mind if I lost because I have my L-Drago now who is a trator because he was doing a lot better in someone elses hands which sucks.

How is it going today anyway?
zander were you the guy with blonde hair at spin off who was ving espio?

Yes, wearing black shirt with a dragon on it and lionheart necklace.

Forgot to say thank you to everyone for a good time, a big thank you to those who hosted it and a massive thank you to Rocky for getting this back on track and all your hard work.
Yeah, I forgot to say Thanks Rocky, Blitz and Espio! Joyful_3

Zander when you talked to me I nearly freaked out I was so shy XD
That guy with Flame Saggitario he got on my nevres he said i'm easy to beat he never went no where in spin off he lost in second match!!!

The best way of how to beat flame saggitario is to get you blade under it so it loses spin i did that to him so many times and i won!

Lol yeah i noticed you were shy in the video i saw lol, aww poor little driger isn't so talkative when he isn't behind a keyboard. Nah im just joking, but it sounds like the majourity of it went well (better than the aussie one attendence wise) so congratulations guys.

Sorry about that, I'm pretty sure you were really nervous which is something that doesn't seem to happen to me. I even said hi to Rocky without even thinking about it.

Side note: Boy is Blitz tall, i said i wish i was taller so i could see over people to watch then match and he said he wished the same things which at the point I turned round and looked up at him. XD
I was tired from having been up really early and didn't really take the chance to get to know people as much as I should have. Hell, I didn't know who half the people from the boards were. D=

I also couldn't really distinguish a lot of the random people from the people off the boards... Was it just me that felt like that? =/
Zander and Pikachao did you see me i was wearing a blue jaket and I was using a Storm Pegasis.
Wooooo! i come 3rd =D oh and by the way people in one of my random boosters i got PISCES!
Cool!Nice prize did i come 4th i'm not sure?
i wish i was there Unhappy looks like you all had fun Smile
congratulations to the winners!
We another small round robin tournament today. Was a laugh and a lot quieter. Was nice to meet everybody but i also think that the meets that will get held will be a lot better. I will let rocky or blitz put up the winner listing for today. Im on my phone at the moment.
yeah i was so annoyed that i couldn't make it today because i didnt get to battle rocky and espio so you better be ready at the summer meet Wink
