Right now, unless someone else wants it changed thats coming it will be Plastic/HMS/MFB Format(all included). Official WBO rules will be followed. Not sure on the tournament format, yet, though. I want to get a list of people that think they can make it, so we can get stuff ready. So far we have:

You were the only one who turned up? That's too bad.:\

However was there no coordination between anyone when in came to finalizing an attendee list? Can't help but feel like tournament was a bit of a leap of faith.
Ouch ... I'm so sick of seeing this happen.
pichu, my friend, and i were the only ones who showed up. we were an hour and a half early so we ate at long john silver's. we then waited at K mart until 1:40pm. after that we stayed at the school until it was 3:30pm then drove home. because of this, our family's having second thoughts about next year's official WBO tournament.
Oh come on, we can't be held responsible because of this. This was organized by you guys, not by any WBO staff. Any falling-out that occurred in the planning needs to be taken up between you guys. Who else was supposed to show up?
That sucks that no one else showed up Unhappy
But you should have called/texted/PMed people and made sure there was a proper confirmation and that they would actually be going before going on a two-hour drive.
i'm not blaming you guys. i'm saying what happened. he wouldn't give us a phone number and instead said he would call us. didn't work out to well because he never contacted us at all yesterday. though ben never checked for a home phone -.-
P.S ben set all this up and said i could go. i really didn't know what was going on besides saturday we are going to a beyblade tourny Confused
and yes ben, dad did say he doesn't want us going to the other tournament to have this repeated.
Yes, we can still go to other tournaments (that are close enough). No, Kai12 and his friend didn't show after repeatedly saying in here and in pm, especially, that he would. He didn't give me a phone number when I asked, only saying that he didn't have a cell phone. And his excuse for not making it was that it was too cold, which he pmed me after the fact. We could drive over two hours going there and he couldn't get out of his house and walk/ride his bike down the street to meet us. I'm disappointed but whatever. They had Long John Silvers so I'm happy enough :3.
EDIT: It was only us, Kai12 and his friend that were going.
Sorry to hear that, but if someone who is hosting the tournament does not want to give out contact information then you should probably not take their word for it. Either way, this was extremely rude on his part, and I doubt anyone will trust him now to host anything. Sorry you had to waste so much gas on a no show.
Yeah, I won't be trusting him again. If he wants to come over here and meet up he can, but I'm not going back there. And Thanks. =)
Sorry to hear it was no-show. Unhappy
Hope you'll be able to do something on your own.
You should always get a contact number.

Sorry that your parents saw it the wrong way, but this isn't what we do. Something like BWR isn't at all on the same scale as this.
yeah...
our mom said we may be able to host one though Smile

IDK what my brother was talking about cuz my parents didn't see it the wrong way. They only blamed Kai12 for not showing up. They will still allow us to go to other events and everything. Just not ones in Laporte with Kai12 since we don't trust him anymore. So yeah, and BTW, if we host one, we would need money and an anime con nearby (which we don't), cuz there aren't enough people here to host one otherwise. So we can't =/.
kai12 has received a 30% warning for not showing up.
