Passport. The fee is $5 USD regardless of region, since we live in Australia the fee is $5.50 AUD (The Australian currency is currently a little higher then the US dollar, but due to conversion fees, bank fees and other PayPal fees the entrance fee is still a little more.) Players who cannot pay this fee cannot enter WBO events UNLESS the player has a blader's passport.
The WBO is a nonprofit organization, and all money collected goes to things for the community; prizes, rewards, site maintenance, etc.
Blader Passport's: If you would like a blader's passport and for any reason cannot purchase one online, you can purchase one at the tournament for $10.00 USD or $11.00 AUD. A blader's passport lasts for one whole year and allows free access to every tournament the player participates in within that year.

hey wats your phone number
Also I have lost my Quezalcoatl. I don't mean to make assumptions but I think it has been stolen. One of the competitors came up to me with my old Draciel and said someone to it out of my bag. I thought nothing of it at the time however I'm beginning to suspect the same person took my Quetz.
If you have any clues on who did it feel free to shoot me a PM or if you accidentally picked it up feel free to tell me.
Thanks!

nice job of winning Robsta i am wondering if theres a second tournament going to go on in melbourne cause i was to late to go to this tournament. PLZ tell me if there is
I'm sorry to hear that man. I guess people losing some of their Beyblades was the worst part of the day, however, everything else was great. There were way more people than I expected. O:
6 losses, 4 wins.
But the Elites vs. the Prodigies:
3-0, Elites win!

Nice work.
9-4 for me after making some pretty stupid mistakes and using some crapped up Beys. -.-

Aw, I am good, just failed at this tourney.
Thanks for the stuff blah. And lastly, my mystery Bey was 'Burn Virgo CH120WD' Did anybody catch it? I used it a bit, then changed to Earth Virgo GB145BS. Startlingly, I beat MF-H Earth Bull C145WB with this customization.

I did some pretty dumb things which led to some pretty stupid loses. -.-
And no problem, enjoy your new Stadium and Beys. ;]

Great Tournament, hopefully next time they could be a few more blocks, Like 5 or 6?

But overall Great.
