Almost a year to the date since "A Timely Farewell," Time comes back to you all with the latest and greatest in the Maryland tournament series, "Before the Burst." Since pretty soon all of our blading knowledge will be consumed with the burst meta, it's time to honor the formats that have led us up to this exciting moment, those of Bakuten Shoot and Metal Fight Beyblade!

Info Stuff:
Date: 6/28/15
Location: MLK Park (The closest address to put in your GPS is 1098 Jackson Rd, Silver Spring, MD 20904, but be sure to look at the map for the actual location of the tournament
which will be beside the pavilion (just above the basketball courts))
Registration: 11:30-12:00
Tournaments will start promptly at noon and I expect we will be done around 5.
Fees: $5 to participate per tournament, $10 for a blader passport
$5 for 2 on 2, this helps cover the cost of all prizes distributed
Formats:
We will be playing some combination of Zero-G, Plastics, HMS, Limited, and 2 on 2 based on the results of the poll. One of the official formats will be played in teams.
Limited: http://worldbeyblade.org/Forum-MFB-Limited-Discussion
Team: http://worldbeyblade.org/Thread-Introduc...on-9-27-14
2 v. 2: A partner is randomly selected for you. You proceed to play matches with all four bladers launching at once. First team to win 5 rounds (5/9) wins the match. Depending on turnout this will likely be double elimination. Once being crowned champions, the winning team will square off against each other in one more 5/9 match (2 switches of beys allowed) to determine who will take home the prize.
Prizes: Stuff from Time's goody bag that includes rare HMS and Plastics, launcher accessories, and other surprises.

EDIT: Is the format pretty much decided on as Zero-G , Team Plastics, Limited 2 on 2? I doubt 6 votes will get upset in the next 4 days and I might not be able to get on the computer as frequently this week so I just want to make sure I bring the right stuff.
And for the Limited 2 on 2, what if we did the matches G-Revolution style rather than all 4 people at once?
And sorry, Im not sure I know what exactly you mean by G-Revolution style.
@[Dark_Mousy] It looking like there's any chance of you coming/bringing anyone else with you?

If you watched the anime you would know what I'm talking about, it when it's a best of three match but only the winner moves on. So if there were like two teams of two Bladers, A &B and C & D, it would go something like this
A > C
B < D
A > D
Where B and C wouldn't be in the final match because they had lost.
EDIT: forgot to tag you @[Time]
sweeetness
Also, if team format goes as quickly as I think it might, if everyone else is game I would be cool with upping limited to a full format and playing HMS in 2 on 2 as well.
Also, other super cool realization: this will be the first team format event not held in Toronto.

More stadiums are always welcome considering it looks like we're at my goal and perfect number for tomorrow's events of 18.
