You said that you were going to the Beyblade Melee and never showed up. We want you to come!

Are you sure you are coming this time? Have you talked to your parents and they have confirmed that they will bring you?
Yes i AM sure i will be coming with my brother XBlader0
add me to the list. my name is subham123
good news guys im coming Smile
sigh always weaklings who haven't battled yet, ( I got that kind of saying from someone else we all know ) I need to battle more good bladers or else it gets boring, I need to battle rotation, or someone else that's good

you better watch out, you better not cry, bbamsuv giving you a reason why, no I'm just kidding challenge accepted
i am going to the tourment me and Cyber X will trimup like link did in Zelda OoT
As of Midnight, 36 bladers are signed up for Better than School! - which is awesome! The weather looks pretty good, so I don't think rain will be an issue, but we have the pavilion if we need it.

Again, I will be making the determination as to the tournament format tomorrow at noon after everyone has signed up and is verified to be there.

IMPORTANT NOTE

Due to the large number of competitors and the difficulty that this poses in creating tournament brackets, if you have not arrived by Noon you may not be allowed to enter.

This bears repeating: There is a hard cutoff for registration at Noon. If you aren't there by Noon you may not be able to participate!

/IMPORTANT NOTE


I know that all of you will be there on time, as free play and set up is a big part of the fun, but please try to arrive no later than 11:30 so that we can be sure to start on time!

Also, for those of you who will be purchasing blader passports ($10) or a single tournament fee ($5), I am instituting a receipt system. This means when you give me $10, I give you a receipt signed by me that says you purchased a passport. And when you give me $5, I give you a receipt signed by me that says you purchased a single tournament. This way there is no confusion about who bought what, and after the fact if you don't have a receipt it means that you didn't buy it.

There will be no receipts given for my private (non WBO) sales of beyblade stuff.

See you all tomorrow!

lol I am not going, I had the same mentality before I went to a tourny, don't know if this is your first, and I didn't do so well.
yea, after lots of practice today. I am not ready for the tourney lmao. I am just gonna try not to place last.
So its going to be at the recreatinal park right just to make sure
Last tourney, I thought I was gonna win like so much, but I didn't. So guys, before you say your gonna win, think. Because if you tell me your username, and I see you, I'mma rub it in your face.
And plus, Rotation and othellog are coming, so its gonna be hard beating those guys.
Libruhhh Keepin it real, guys.

And I did.
So guys, keep your modesty for when you actually win, because if you tell me who you are, and you don't win, i WILL rub it in your face.
Keepin' it real.
Oh cant wait to battle u


so where exactly is it again please some one awsner
XBlader0,
Look at Arupaeo's OP and enter in the address in Mapquest.

One final thought, I may run out of small surprise gifts depending on the number of people - so another reason to get there a bit early! (I will be there at 11 on the dot)
oh noes! thats like the main reason im going lawls JK
I think I'm going to be fifteen minutes late, but I'll try not to be considering your last post, Arupeao.
TheCaptainDiego & @ლ(ಠ益ಠლ). Very funny... comedians, the two of you!

Good luck everyone![/align]
