Yeah SDamon (had to get that out because everything seemed pointed at me).

May wanna check the format with kai-v if you haven't already, cos I'm pretty sure BRR is your only option...

I didn't direct it at you , I just quoted your post because it basically said it was knockout so relax 
I was also implying that you should use round robin not asking about it LOL travisawesome.
You cannot use single elimination and double elimination should not be used in this circumstance due to the small amount of people defiantly use BRR or RR if you have less then 12 people.

Oh and a passport only lasts a year, not forever as the OP says
Block Round Robin, that is what we are doing. It is the only block tourney in the WBO event guide so it is what we have to do. Sorry about that, I got confused between the BRR and elimination. I read the book really quickly on my way to school so I must have muddled it it. So sorry about that, I'll contact Kai-V about it.
I was wondering why it seemed unfair that some people only got maybe a battle before the tourney was over
Urrggg... This is not going to look good on my profile for my first tourney. I need as many brownie points with Kai-V as possible

Chill man, mistakes happen, and you're doing a helluva lot better than a lot of attempts I've seen lately :p
Ok guys, here's the deal. We need at least 15 people to make the BBR work, so until we reach that number then we will do a normal round robin like last time. We will have 2-3 stadiums going at once to speed up the process so it won't go for as long.
Everyone happy, suggestions?

Hmmmm Fair enough, we have 12 bladers now right? 3 spots to anyone in Perth =D
And with the possibility of a round robin, does that mean.... everyone gets ...11 matches?

You can run BRR with 12 people, by the way. 3 blocks of 4. Even with 13 or whatever, it's totally do-able, just some blocks aren't even. Randomising the places keeps it fair.
I know, I just like to keep stuff even. I'm kinda a perfectionist when it comes to this kinda stuff...
Mmm, well, as long as you can prevent it going as long as mine did, then yeah.
Well, we are starting earlier and have more stadiums so that should help. And at the moment less people.
BTW, I am currently at Preston Beach and am secretly on my dads iPad and 3G. So I may not be on here very much for a few days (this place is so isolated, no wi-fi!). Hope you guys can handle it without me

wait if there are 16 people who can go, then will we be going as block tourney as originally planned? or keep it as block round robin? i mean, theres only about 3 more weeks till the tournament and all...
I wish I could go, all my assignments are not due until mid-October and I live in Perth at the moment.
But the problem is, I'm a girl, I only have 3 MFBeyblades and 1 plastic in my possession since all my other beys are in my home place, and how to get from Curtin University (living there so no car) to Variety Pavilion, Kings Park.
I could go by going through the 72/75 bus to the city and then take another bus that goes to Kings Park.
By the way, what street is it in? So I can check transperth for bus routes
Then I'll verify if I can come or not

1st = Gender Does No Matter
2nd = you can take the 99 to the city / train station to get to wellington station / esplanade station, from there if you wanna get to the spot directly, you might need to take the Perth Tram, unsure if they work on Sunday.
3rd = the street is "Saw Avenue", not kidding, that's how cool it is XD
Yeah, gender doesn't matter. Non of us here are sexist. And yes, the avenue is actually called 'Saw Avenue', kinda creepy but cool 
BTW I am back now, so I'll be back online more
BTW I am back now, so I'll be back online more
what do u mean by that how i mean i really definitely want to go to this block tourney what else can i say
You defiantly want to go, but can you go? Have your parents said yes? I'll put you down but make sure your parent/guardian can take you.
And guys I noticed in the first Perth Tourney thread everyone posted once a week how excited they were. Don't post about your excitement. We know you are excited and there is no need to post that here, it's just SPAM and I will report any post which only list emotions towards the event.

I checked the Transperth site for bus routes from Curtin Bus Station to Saw Ave. I could take my usual 72/75 bus to the city then take the 103 bus, which goes to Fremantle station and I can stop at Thomas St. after Saw Ave.
I've never used the Perth trains before since I'm still new to Perth (only been in Perth for less than a year) so I'll stick to buses XD
So yeah...I can go, don't need my parent's permission or anything since I'm 18, living on campus but I can only bring the beyblades I currently have with me, I have many more but they're not with me
I might try to buy about 2 more before the comp starts but Beyblades are so expensive 12-20AUD
I noticed Saw Ave. is a road full of parks on both sides, which side will you guys be on if I'm coming from Thomas Street?
It will be on the right I think and it will be the place that looks like, well, a pavilion. You'll know it when you see it. Plus there will be a bunch of people there hopefully, and I will try to get there early for once (I know I say that every time but always end up late).

Dude, it helps build a community feeling, there's a reason I supported it.... Why be such a wet blanket? There's absolutely nothing wrong with saying how excited people are, it builds and multiplies anticipation for the event itself, and helps remind people that it's actually on... Lighten up.
SDC, if the weather is good, you should check out the place we did the plastics tourney, I'm sure one of the guys can show you it. It's a lovely place, just put down a blanket, the ground is relatively flat but you can launch a stamina type to test that (if it doesn't stay in the dead centre of the stadium it's not level), and yeah, park bench. Though, no power points. But there's that cool place to do the finals too.
