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. ^^;

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

Nonono! I can't view it! Someone describe what they do!
Its 2 people. One is cosplaying Tyson, the other Kai and they are dancing and singing...xD
They were dancing and were dressed like Kai and Tyson and acting a bit disabled... (Not really a good description)
.............a bit disabled?
Are they from BB-Nation/do we know them? Do you know what they're singing? Sorry for all the questions. :X

Erm, I can't tell whos who D:

They were the Tyson & Kai that were battling with us on the Sunday, not sure if they are part of the BB Nation or not lol.
Yuki-Kiba-Chan and her friend (don't think she's a member) then? Yuki is a member here and is head of BB-Nation. :3
I think it was before you turned up actually. They were blading with us on the Saturday too.
I think they left as I got there.
Oh! I didn't see them anywhere in the tournament? Maybe because I came really late.
I had a great time with the tourney on the sunday. i think i ended up 4th with my libra. its a pity got quite trashed over the weekend because i leant it to like 5 other competitors to use aswell.
overall good weekend and i hope the promoters get compensated for all the stuff that was broken/stolen over the weekend.

I'm sorry, it was my fault entirely that I couldn't bring up any of my own blades. At our next meet up, you can borrow my parts as much as you like if it's any consellation?
My mate just decided to tell me that he recorded this lol its the final between me and munkers i think?

You used Wide Square for the final? I realize WS is a WBO legal stadium but wouldn't Attack Type have been better for the final?

I used Balance for the final at BWR (I honestly think it's better than Attack, but to each his own). We didn't use Wide Square during the tournament at all, though.
Really? Doesn't the lack of Tornado ridge seriously take down it's usefulness though?
(May. 28, 2009 6:58 PM)Giga Wrote: Really? Doesn't the lack of Tornado ridge seriously take down it's usefulness though?
I didn't notice much performance change with RF between Attack and Balance. Because Balance is deeper, there's more surface area to cover, so it doesn't often KO itself. RF is just as hard to control in Attack. I think Super Attack is going to be necessary.
I need to get my hands on a balance stadium. Playing with only one stadium now is somewhat limiting. Turns out D is a lot less effective in that stadium than in the Attack Dish.
Lol, yeah. On the Saturday we used a load of stuff. It was easier to use Wide Square at that point. On the Sunday we stuck to the Attack Stadium.
With the next event, if there is a next event, we should draft stuff out. Assuming MFB hits UK shores prior to the event then it would make the whole tournament and everything ALOT easier. I also believe that it would be a lot more organised as well.
The wide sqaure stadium is like my enemy!!!
Just becasue beyunit every time i versed you using that stadium i won. And same with the other stadiums that i versed you in. I dominated the game every time i versed you..
