No more than a few feet away from Buckingham Palace itself is St. James’s Park, which will be a new location for the UK branch of the WBO, as all of our non-expo tournaments so far have taken place in Regents Park.

Although Regents Park has been a great venue before, we feel that St. James’s Park is a better location for this time of year.

Not only does the point we’ve chosen have good food and toilet facilities, but it is also very close to a gazebo in the event of rain.

The meeting point will be just up and to the left of point 5 on the St. James’s park map:
http://www.royalparks.org.uk/parks/st_james_park/

You’ll also be able to see on the map by clicking on “Transport & info”, the nearest tube stations.

We'll me meeting at point 5 (The blue bridge) at 12:00pm, and will move to an area of nearby grass at 1:00 to start the tournament. The tournament will most probably go on until around 3:30, yet it could go on for less, or possibly longer.

We'd recommend travelling to the event from Green Park station (one stop on from Oxford Circus), as it's closest to the event.
• The tournament style will be block round robin, since this worked well at the last event.
• The main tournament will be MFB only, but free battles will allow plastic and HMS as usual.

Items we'd recommend for you to bring would include a hooded coat or jacket in case of rain, possibly an umbrella, and layers such as jumpers and scarves as the weather will still be cold at the time of the tournament.

We'd also recommend that if you do intend to take part in the tournament, then bring your own beys.

This may sound like an obvious suggestion, but in the past people have come without, expecting to borrow other peoples.

This would not be a problem, but more than half the blades that have been lent out to people have either come back damaged from improper use, or not come back at all (as those who visited expo will know).

Obviously this has made people a lot more reluctant to lend out their own beys.

The entry fee will be the same as usual, free with a blader passport (£6 to buy), or £3 otherwise, and as usual there is no age restriction.

We hope you'll be interested in this tournament, and enjoy it as you have done with previous tournaments.

Thanks,
theflightyellz

Banned parts:
For this tournament (which will probably be one of the first of many), Libra will be banned as was decided by popular vote.
We feel that this will make the tournament a lot more interesting, and encourage people to use both new defense, and attack combinations.

It couldn't really be helped, it was freezing therefore shivering to much lol
I think some of the shakey effects were actually just cause the people recording were shivering lol.......know that to be the case for some of Coxys stuff anyways XD
it's a mix of shakey effects to cover really bad physical shaking from the cold, and just pure shaking from the cold.
Some parts that were just shaking from the cold had to be covered with the shakey blur effect just to give you an idea of which blade is which...
We really need a HD camera with an anti-shake option, but we do the best with what we have :\
Nice vid. Great choice of music. Song was really catchy.
Glad you liked it, thanks Khel Smile
is it just me or was the video epic. so who were the 2 finalist and what were there beys?
The winners of the tournament were myself, using a combination of VirgoC145WB and MF Earth Wolf DF145SD, Rocky using VirgoC145WB and Flame Bull DF145SD, and LeeDraciel using MF Earth Leone DF145D and Pisces D125D.
Glad you liked the video Smile
videos r uploading as we speak, incuding prefinal banter lol so hopefully ellz can use the stuff i shot, also great video, nice choice in music it fits it well
I'll see what the quality is like, and if there is a lot of similar footage to what I used in the original video.
If it's primarily new stuff and banter I'll just add it to the end of the video after the credits.
Or ellz you could sort of make like behind the scenes type of thing.
Looked like you all had fun! It's a Shame I missed this one but I'll try my best to be at the next. Well done Ellz, Rocky & Lee Grin

I'll bring mine next time if I can come (and i'll let you & alex use it) But it isn't really great, it films at 1280×720 but the quality isn't that good - you could resize it so it's better quality. It also has something called "Stabilization" which i haven't tried but it's supposed to reduce blurring when you shake the camera. Another con is that the battery runs on alot of juice and the batteries rechargable, not a non-rechargable one. Sooooooo I probably won't bring it xD
my mom emailed me a picture of the tournament, i was looking at it and theflighyellz your in the background kinda looking like a emo :\ Smile
Could you post this pic
