That is correct. It's obviously easier for me if they already have accounts and can confirm prior to the tournament, but if things are up in the air I will be happy to register them.

And of course, we are happy to have them come battle!
->arupaeo why dont we use other peoples stadiums instead of 5 its seems like it would speed things up a bit
(Or god decided to play a trick on my brain today )

Fair question, and the full answer can be found here: http://worldbeyblade.org/Thread-Silver-S...#pid784752

The shorter answer is that we can't run more stadiums than we have judges for.

Because you haven't signed up for this tournament yet meteobang. Were all waiting for you!

Smile JK

The Beyblade Melee hasn't been processed yet either, though it is next in the queue (line) to be
processed.

FYI for everyone, you can find out where our tournaments are in the queue by going to this thread: http://worldbeyblade.org/Thread-BeyPoints-Queue



Seriously though meteobang, are you going to come to The Dual Duel?

You use whatever launcher you want and whatever ripcord you want
wait a second! are we gonna to a second tournament right after the first 1?
The 8-9 Hour Drive is gonna be worth it!
(Oct. 03, 2011  12:39 AM)Ryugablader Wrote: wait a second! are we gonna to a second tournament right after the first 1?

It depends on how many bladers we get. If it is less than 20, then yes, we will have 1 tournament and then a 2nd tournament right afterwards. If it is more than 25, we will be using a brand new format where we run 2 block round robin tournaments simultaneously. If it is between 20-25, then it will either be one of those options or the other

But one thing is for sure, There will be no double elimination! Smile

ok so what if there were only 20 bladers competing in this tourney and then what would be the prizes for the second tourney after the fist 1?

Each tourney will have its own prizes. The prizes will be TT beys and/or gear, like they usually are.
