Where: At Regents Park's bandstand

ControL_'s Guide

Directions to the bandstand:

OK heads up guys, you want to be taking the following buses that pass by (or are close): 13, 46, 82, 113, 187. The 13 and 46 are one stop away so walk around the edge of St Johns Wood high street. From here on, you wil lwant to enter the park via the entrance by the mosque. The Mosque is labelled on the linked map added on the OP.

Now train wise, you guys want to get the Jubilee line somewhat and get off at Bakers street (Jubilee, metropolitain, bakerloo and some more?). From bakers street station you want to walk down the road on the right of the entrance/exit for 50 metres, cross the small road and enter through the main of the parks entrances, you can't miss it! At this stage you will be at a duck/swan feeding area and on your immediate right is a big bridge. You want to go cross that bridge and when your across the 30 metre long bridge, you want to turn left and walk up that path. For about 100 metres walking straight following the path, you will reach the bandstand - easy! For this route you should use this map. (Bandstand at top middle, bridge is at the direct bottom : Route A

The other route, to get here you can get off at St Johns Wood station, get the bus 113/82/13 outside and take it for 2 stops to the mosque (then walk down hangover road to entrance). Enter through the hangover road entrance. From the entance you will see a largish playground, a pond; there are many kids yellow paddling boats here in this small pond, and across this pond is the boathouse cafe, a cafe. Route B map Looking at the map, you can see the pond. Walk down the outlined path hugging the lake. You should aim to walk all the way down that path till you reach the bridge as described in route A. Again walk up 100metres up the straight path and your there. - The bandstand is the small white circle in the bottom right of the link. Hangover road entrance is in the top right, to the right of that is the playground and the pond.


These are two easiest ways to get there via public transport and walking!

Great weather here in Regents Park today - As you might know, i live very close to the area. No sign of rain, cloudy with bits of sun.

There won't be as much mud, it should be dry due to no rain for the past week or so.
Goody Grin

At 15:00 is when the weather climaxes at 14 degrees - When we're in the heat of the tournament itself.

Thanks for the organisation team for this tournament! It couldn't have been done without you. I had a great time as always even though I didn't win any matches.

Congratulations to oops i farted for winning the raffle: Basalt Horogium NIB + Midnight Bull NIB. A very charitable man indeed!

Also a shout out to Beyblade247 who won Torch Aries in the raffle.

@ oops I farted
How could you say this? Why the hell are you raging on a matter which includes you being completely wrong in every way. We even discussed to 2 more judges, Lee and Blitz both agreed you are only allowed one reshoot clause so get over it. You contacted someone elsee during launch = 1 reshoot early on. Your bey fell off at launch = round to me. You are only allowed one reshoot clause
- Furthermore I won 3-0 by a huge OS gap and you kept arguing with me as judge stalling for ages.

Get over it.

---------------------------
Low turnout of about 35 bladers - Which is still enough for double elimination (to keep Kai-V happy). I was happy to be able to judge double elimination. Luckily no bladers backed out so the situation was relatively easy for me and I hope despite some double losses (which were very few) ever had fun.

I guess third place and judging gets me 2 new faces for my repetoir.

Finals was done redone twice, we kept ending up with the same one loss one win situation haha Grin
Darn I had a chance to win it but too bad, i guess i'm still too new for tournaments to win one.
I had a a good time today! Managed to place first again after having to do the finals like three times haha. Also Raijin gave me a run for my money, managed to knock me into the losers block with his MF-H? Hell Kerbecs, but I bought it back again luckily haha.

Also well done to Lee for 2nd place and Kevin for 3rd. Can't forget Cyber Kerberous either who manged to come 4th. (Will have to send the prizes to Lee & Kevin when they arrive, PM me your addresses please!)

We didn't have as bigger turn out this time, we had 40 people take part today, which was a nice number to be honest haha.

Anyway Thanks to everyone that came, hope you all had a good time and hope to see you at the next one!
