I am going and so is StrikerX!!
1st Place: Sniperâ„¢
2nd Place: Justin D
3rd Place: xsonicx10
Location: Toys 'R' Us in Times Square
Date: Saturday, October 22nd, 2011
Time: noon-ish
Fees: $5 one time entry fee, $10 year-round blader passport
Prizes: To be determined
Format: Block Round Robin
Restriction: 8 online, 16 at the tournament
Okay, so here is the plan: we gather up all the bladers in the building who show up for TRU's "tournament" (lol) and bring them outside for an actual tournament - WBO style. The purpose is to give players who are not a part of the WBO a chance to experience what we have to offer. Hopefully, if they like how we run this, they will come to the tournament the following week, STAGE FRIGHT. After all, we want to break 100 players at one tournament, right? Now is our chance!
This is a restricted attendance event. I will take 8 members online as confirmed and the rest will be determined at the tournament. Please, please, please let the newer players play if there are not enough spots and you are a tournament veteran. After all, your time to shine will be at STAGE FRIGHT the following week.

Zakiah, the Hasbro US Champion, might show up to this.
We'll see. He's an alright guy. I just want him to practice up since he's representing our country, y'know?

For those of you who did not know, The Problem used uncustomized Basalt through a majority of the Philadelphia event and won.
What?!
Just why people think- Extreme weight combined with skill makes Basalt overpowered!
Mwuhahahaha! Looking at the parts I own, I'll have to battle with an uncustomized Hell Kerbecs in my tourney! If I win..... then I'll see to it that no man says Hell Kerbecs is bad!

I changed the event title to something that is a little more...relevant to NYC's current events.

I'm largely impressed at how successful this was. I gave out a majority of the promo cards I had and explained next week's tournament to everybody in here. Because TRU got bombed with like 50-60 kids, they had no problem with me taking everyone over the age of 10 to play in a WBO tournament. We had about 20+ people enter. In the interest of time, I had to switch to double elimination.
So did that dude with his Basalt 145WD show up?
No. I know his plane leaves at 5 and the tournaments started at 2pm so it makes sense that he didn't show up. The airport is an hour away with traffic and then he needs to be there an hour early to get through security.
the4anime came in 2nd, actually.
Aha, on a side note, the TRU employee that normally runs the Beyblade events actually plays Beyblade. So cool to have another girl my age who is into this!
Big thanks to Cyber Blader who co-hosted this with me! He didn't get a chance to play, but he deserves a spot as a co-host because I couldn't do it without him. There were just too many kids.

It was no problem, I had a great day in the city and helping everyone today was a huge plus. You did a great job giving the circumstances, wish I could've stayed the entire time to help out. Honestly going by how well this was run, this was your best one yet (that I've been too).
Ha, really? It was so chaotic. I mean, I guess it was well run considering my resources...
So absolutely nobody from everyone who attended had time to take even just one photograph ?
I got one gentleman's number who was recording on his iPhone. That's the best I could do for you. I'm going to call him tomorrow. His son advanced very far so he has a majority of the tournament on his phone.
I really loved this concept, and thought that the change of name was witty as well.
But...
Who won?
