1) the tables in the pavilion are bolted to the floor.
2) tips on tables are fine, but it would takes 5x the amount of blankets to cover the concrete around the tables - which is where the beys always end up anyway.
3) tables are at eye level for many of our younger bladers - which is totally unsafe for young competitors and spectators alike.

The young people are true I get the point we can't do it but to argue about tables I don't know if IKMV Brought them or found but we played on tables in the first MD Tournament there on Grass.

I remember. For the life of me I don't know where those tables went to, but they were the standard big wooden picnic tables (so I doubt ikmv brought them). Wink

We played on tables at Blademore as well (Xanadu games) - which is where I saw 3 kids get hit in the head, chest and throat by flying beys...
I don't think I can come because I have to go with my friends somewhere. I'm sorry. Unhappy

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! I wish I could come, it would be so fun, and I need to show my even better skills, (they've gotten so much better, I would probably get at least 3rd, no one judge me) and I hope I can beg my mom to bring me there (fingers crossed I'll be there) (don't judge me on this post) hope I'll get there!
I WOULD love to come to this if I could find a ride....
I wish I could come (wimpers in corner)

Prizes have now been updated in the OP.

A note on prizes

After a general discussion in another thread with some of the committee, moderators and other hosts, I have decided that I will not accept a prize if I place in a tournament that I host. I will accept the place finish, but the prizes will all float down 1 level - meaning that the 4th place finisher will get the 3rd place prize, and so on where applicable.

That's all for now!
