Can I ask are we still doing the torninment and if we are what time
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.
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.
~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.
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. ^^;

As you can see on page 12, Espio is working on another list but let's wait a little till that's updated here. :3

About midday on the Saturday. Maybe one on Sunday, we'll see how it all goes down.
Well the MCM Expo it-self starts at 11:00am.
![[Image: 1Kq8.gif]](https://dragcave.net/image/1Kq8.gif)
![[Image: hnNm.gif]](https://dragcave.net/image/hnNm.gif)
Actually it officially starts at 9:00AM. 
No not really , because you can only get in at 9:00am if you have an early ticket or fast track ticket but the normal tickets only allow you to go in at 11:00am.
Look on here http://www.londonexpo.com/show_informati...html.>_<

No i don't think Rocky is saying that the tournament starts at 9:00am but that is the time you can get in if you have a fast track ticket or early entry ticket.But the general opening is 11:00 am and i think the tournament will offically start at between 12:00 - 2:00pm.
Ugh, the Expo opens at 9:00am on the Saturday and 10:00am on the Sunday.
If you have a fast track ticket you go in then, if you buy a standard ticket you go in at 11:00am, both days.
Both types of tickets can be bought at the day, the earlier you get there, the less queueing you'll have to stand through.
The tournament should start somewhere between 12:00 and 12:30, 1:00 at a big push. We'll see how many people we have ready and how many are stuck in queues.
This is a useful read btw: http://www.mcmexpogroup.com/forums/viewt...19&t=11273
Aspecially the transport stuff. TFL has a habit of randomly stopping trains/tubes leaving you stuck in the middle of London.
Lmao, see what I mean? http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tfl/livetravelnews...?offset=10

ok thanks but i might come around 1:00 Pm but will i still be entered in the contest
What about if someone comes late for example the tournament starts at 1:00pm and they came at 2:00pm
Then you can't play in the tournament.

Well put khel. We have deadlines to stick by. I will post my number up nearer the time, if you cant get through to rocky for whatever reason then just call me.
![[Image: beyuk.jpg]](https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v605/dragoon-master/beyuk.jpg)
The posters look amazing. :o
When I wen't on BeyUK thats where I first saw it. It looks awsome!
Thank dieddead for the poster. The top three placed bladers will receive a poster each. We will be giving a select few posters away on the sunday. We're not sure on how we are going to decide how to do this as of yet.
The Excel Centre has WiFi access using BT Openzone.
We will need to pruchase vouchers to use it however. This can either be done on the internet or they can be purchased the Excel Centre IT Communication Helpdesk on level 0.
I have emailed Excel regarding the vouchers. Hopefully I get a reply back by tomorrow. Assuming the price is £10, like it says on the BT Openzone website, then I wouldn't mind paying in full for both days. It is down to you, Blitz and Rocky, if you pitch in and go thirds. Either way, it doesn't really concern me as I have the money this month because of the shed loads of overtime I have been working.
Rocky, I'm also assuming that your friends laptop has the ability to access the internet wirelessly?

So your coming Newt?
And it looks like that was your first post lol, go and introduce yourself.
And it looks like that was your first post lol, go and introduce yourself.
I imagine they will give you guys vouchers for net access.
I would like to think so. Rocky is still waiting for a reply from Bryan Expo regarding floor space and what sort of location we have.
Also, what format are we using for the free battles? Open format or restricted format? I'm pretty sure we can gues that zombies are banner regardless?

It should be agreed upon by both Bladers if they are to use restricted. Regardless, if you play Open format, you can't just ban Zombies ... as long as the bearings aren't tuned, they're WBO legal. They're also not impossible to beat.

Cheers Brad, I assumed that the free-battles had to be either or, not one permanently and then you can use restricted when both agree on it.
As for Zombies, that is fair enough =D.
What about if someone comes with Plastic or HMS beyblades?
