Well, I'm sure that this wont be the only time I have stadiums if people are interested in getting them. so far I've seen 3 people express interest, and if there are more, I could do an order for October.

Arupaeo, BigBang4ever is looking to buy a bb10 attack stadium if u have any more?

I don't think she will hosting yet at the moment because she have to go move in NYC before she host any tournament

October will be at MLK park still. In November we will probably switch to an indoor venue until March or April.

Deikailo deserves a break from hosting / judging, so while she is always welcome in MD the next time she comes it is going to be as a non-working guest who can have just as much fun as the rest of you do!

It only matters in the real battle if you win or not, I beat a lot of people but I lost in the real matches.

Man this is ridiculous, I still don't have my bey points or my passport, did anyone else get theirs.

Can you stop whining ? Look at the stickied topic called "Beypoints Queue". There are a lot of tournaments we still need to do and which happened first, so just be patient. There is no other way to process results than to type each battle, each username one by one.
oh ok sorry I didn't know that it was that hard.

You need to learn that Kai-V is the law.

So there's two issues with your assumptions above

1) Since when does the op on this thread say anything other than block round robin?
2) You didn't read the earlier posts where I specifically said that the format would not be finally determined until the day of the tournament.

I understand your concern, but fear not: Until you hear differently from me, we are block round robin.

yay Smile

So wait its Block Round Robin now? Aww man ;_;. Double would be much faster though. Not many people would lose their points which is good. Thats why I like Double. But eh its all to you Wink. So psy'dddd for Sunday.

nerfblader: Otsu is probably busy with other stuff. Its kind of weird that he hasn't posted in a while ;___;
I'm actually mostly excited to go to meet all of you veterans (®, othellog, etc.)
Your presence will be OVERWHELMING.

Schedual conflict, sometimes we don't get to do all of the things we'd like to do...

On the day of the tournament, after everyone has signed in, we will finally know how many people are actually competing and what the format will be.
Im a maybe our ride is still thinkng about it
