Schedule:
10:30 - Check-In Begins
11:00 - (optimally) Tournament Starts
11:30 - Check-In Closes

2:00 - Finals Start (estimated)

The event will have a participant cap of 14 people; I apologize for any inconvenience in advance, but having less people will make the tournament go more smoothly for both me and the competitors. 

I am under 18; my adult is Richard Cheng.

Note:
The tournament will be in Group Round-Robin Format, bring BURST ONLY. Beyblades from any other system will not be permitted for use in the tournament. There will be one Beystadium Standard available for use in the tournament, and if you would like to hold practice rounds on your own between matches, feel free to bring your own stadium. I will need at least one judge to assist me, please volunteer when you sign up if you are interested. Please be patient with me, as this is my first tournament and I may be slower than you are used to at other tournaments. Extra Beyblades and launchers for loan in the tournament, and I heavily encourage participants to do the same. Passersby may want to join in, and we can expand our community that way! Thank you for your patience, and see you there!

Update: Bring lawn chairs if you would like to have chairs at the event; sorry for not being able to get a proper venue again.

Let's go! I hope I can make it. It might be a bit iffy for me, but I'll do my best to come. I'll also send out some PMs to people who have come to my tournaments about this. Good luck!

ZephyrDraco I would change the cap to 14. At 11 you cannot run block round robin. You must have 12 participants and trust me, you want block round robin. It will go much faster.

Sure, that would be great. Please be patient with me though because quite honestly I'm pretty clueless haha

I think I've got 3 already, do you have experience with Challonge though? Might need some help with that.

Checking in as in volunteering for check-in? Sorry if this seems obvious, just wanted to clarify before marking down.

In case you haven't seen: update, bring lawn chairs if you'd like somewhere to sit during the event. I'll hopefully be able to bring extra, but not totally sure.

I can help with challonge.
What I mean by check in is that I am sure that I am going and you can put me in the list from the people that are going

So you might as well put me in the challonge

Ok that helps. Just wanted to ask, how did you prep for your first tournament, or for any tournament for that matter?

I print out the bracket so that I can put check marks on the bracket, but you need to do that latter.
Usn just gives me a list of players and I just judge battles, but except my battles, he takes my spot when that happens
I know I’m not in the tournament, but I just wanna say good luck with the tournament everyone! Hopefully Texas can get even more great organizers and the community will continue to grow!
ZephyrDraco you should move the tournament. The weather is looking BAD. 95% chance of rain on Accuweather.
Oh you know I'm down just got to settle things up with the wifey but most likely I'm about to hit that join button. I mean if it is going to rain I mean I'm still down the blade as long as it's in a covered area but it could be a problem for other people getting there. Knowing Texas and how random the weather is it could rain it might not it's kind of a crapshoot

Oh yeah wifey said it was cool! See ya there in a few days!
