In what is almost certainly Time's final tournament before he heads off to college the competition will need to be long and fierce.

For this reason, bladers from across the region are strongly encouraged to attend this sequence of tournaments. Beyond the thrill of participating in not only one, but three tournaments with some of the highest ranking bladers in the world there will be a special reward for those who make the journey from another state.

Entry into the first tournament-exclusive beylotto (provided by Time). Each blader who hails from beyond the borders of Maryland will walk away with something, the question is only of what quality will that prize be.

Following these photos, for every blader from another state who attends one more of these items will be added to the pool. The top prizes, the limited edition Blue Takara Orojya wheel and the HMS random booster exclusive Sea Dragon can be obtained by the presence of a mere 9 and 10 bladers from other states, respectively. The rest of the prizes can be obtained sequentially based on this number beginning with The L Drago Destroy BD145 Combination. So, you are guaranteed to walk away with something for your journey.

In order to maximize the fun of the day and reward MD bladers themselves for coming, somewhere around 4:00 PM a tournament involving either 3, 4, or 5 way battles (depending on the number of people or possibly two on two battles with the winning team taking on each other for the stadium, only possible if even number of participants) in the bb-46 stadium will be played for $3 per person and the winner walking away with the stadium.

Unhappy I'm so sorry I can't come. Gl Ethan, Orion and Leone7 (and everyone else). I truly hope a BBB member places. Can't wait for results!
Take me off the maybe list.
EDIT: No longer selling
I'm going for sure
Fantastic! Glad that you can make it!
The Greninja Master is back yet again. LOL. Let see put me at comfired for now!!!
What format will take place in the Balance Stadium? Limited or Standard?

Oh, and bring a fair amount of cash guys, I have a bunch of spare parts for sale including:

- E230
- Genbull
- TB
- A230
- Lots of Clear, Crystal, Metal, and Chrome Wheels I don't have time to go thru
- Pretty much any D series Bottom besides SD

First come, first serve. See you guys there!
Hmmm, limited could be fun since we're already doing a full standard tournament, we can talk about it tomorrow.
We gotta think about the amount of thine we have as well. If we want to run standard,zero g ,plastics and tag team we won't really have much time to do anything else
What else would we need to do? I mean we can eat and jam as we play and the beylotto can run as we play as well.
When you talk about limited are you talking about useing it for the tag team?
Yeah, that's what he meant.
Ohhhhh ok I though you guys meant having limited too

Also, realized I have some Pokemon Cards to sell as well....

Furthermore, there will be a special surprise for MD Bladers as well on top of the beylotto for out of state bladers.
After talking with Time via PM, I'm really sad I'm going to miss this one. It sounds really fun.

I wish you guys the best of luck with this tomorrow and hope it all works out perfectly.

Yeah, I'm disappointed that I can't go either, but between my mom being out of town and my dad being on leave I couldn't make the trip.

Also, this is a stupid question, but how will the tag team battle work? You can't control your Beyblades so you might attack your team mate? Would it just be like the last one spinning (or last two if they were both on the same team?)
@woumb@ You guessed it exactly. Last one spinning or last two if the same team.
Good luck to everybody tomorrow! Go NY!

For once I won't be the only one watching. Or will I be there ? Maybe me and BlitzArmor, because my parents are acting on and off, but is it okay if I am a little late (at most 30 mins).
Looks like Matthew57429 might not be able to go. My dad got sick so it kind of depends on how he feels tomorrow. You'll have to switch us to a maybe.

Just don't be past 11:15 at the absolute latest
I will not be attending tomorrow's tournament. I apologize for any inconvenience.
Well guys guess this is just going to be a MD event with a couple of NY people considering the number of people that have bailed. Everything will happen as planned, just a bit disappointing.
I will post when I officially am confirmed, but I will be late for sure. So put me in challenge when I confirm, but save my matches for last. The latest I will be is 11:30, but I'll try to come earlier.
The format will probably be Swiss so we can only delay your first match until the end of round 1, after which you have automatic losses until you show up.
