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. ^^;

I am hesitant to put any more than that. I don't want people to be put down for something they had no intension of going to and then people getting annoyed at them for it. ^^; Who knows, I may have already put too much. :X

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

OK, I have decided (Can't make my mind up here XD) that I will go but will someone stand in the line with me for an early ticket please because I wouldn't be able to last without wanting the toilet.
Lol , we didn't really want to know that , but you don't need someone to line up with you because you won't be waiting that long in the que because there is about 50 ticket stand things.Grin
You have to go to the bathroom that frequently Zander? Really, I mean come on.
Khel, I have this problem too. Some people I know alos have this problem.
Yes but even though people have that problem it would'nt take that long to line up and get the tickets anyways.
Argh, if I see another attendance list I'm gonna scream. XD Mm, I don['t want people to get too worked up. It's important to have an idea of who's coming but at the end of they day we can never be 100% certain that ewveryone will show anyways and we may get newcomers.....so don't fret too much. I think most of us have an idea of who is coming anyways.

Also, there aren't 'about 50 ticket things'.....it will probably have changed since last year (the whole Expo is about 30% bigger in itself) but there will probably be like......four.

Seriously dude, your like 13/14 years old, you don't need to be going that often lol

Anyways, I added you back on the attendee list Smile I'm sure you'll have a lot of company when you get there, so far there's about 18 people who confirmed that they're coming.
Anywho, let's refrain for bathroom talk and divert our discussion to the awesomeness that is Spinoff.
Does'nt that mean that we can do round robin for the tournament system.
We'll do Round Robin or Block Round Robin depending on how many people turn up.
Koolio*random* , i like round robin if that is what we are going to use for the system.
Uh, ignore this.

Wow... Things seem to be turning out quite well now. As opposed to that previous struggle for even 9 people.

I'm obtaining a new launcher soon. So I'll be able to lend out another blade. I'm thinking I'll tag the bits I'm lending, in hope it'll make it easier to keep track of who's got what.

Yes that is alot of people coming but you have to also think about the fact that people may drop-out(hopefully not). And if a large amount of people do drop-out , we will have to make do with the people that turn up.

Didn't say it because I'd rather not jinx it. Nah I'm not really superstitious. But I'd rather pay attention to the more positive potential outcome.
Fair enough , very good point.
I have been updating the list as i have been getting replies. To be honest, im not going to be editing it anymore. I got other more important things to be stressing over rather than the attendance haha. And yes, ive been busy behind the scenes like im sure rocky and blitz have been.

The address:
ExCeL
Royal Victoria Dock
London,
E16 1XL, UK
I realy wish I could make this. D:
Take a bunch of pictures for me!

Fingers crossed I can get to the October Convention .
OK, just to clear this up, I have a problem everytime I go out, I don't know what it really is but it is a problem and it is something that will not go away so easierly. To be plan, I can't help it. Also, Aqua, it pains me to say it but I am 19 years old.

Also, Rocky knows about the problem because she is the one leading this and if need be, she could give people what I told her but only to important people.
I understand, Zander. (I have eczma Unhappy)

Im scared of going. Stupid things are scaring me, like if no children are there and I freak out.XD
What's Round Robin & Block Round Robin?

Anyways, talking about that..
2 Groups, each person plays twice, the top 2 people in those groups go in into the quarter finals and so on.
