thats weird you would think that a company should focus on satisfy its main consumers then its other ones.
Well, despite what we might think, the vast majority of hasbro beyblade buyers are not WBO members. Moreover, it would appear that past overatures made by the WBO to Hasbro have been rebuffed.

I will be at the tournament. Is Basalt Horgonium allowed or do I need a particular Bey?
Hey all. Brand new to tournaments & organized blading. Definitely trying to make the Sept. 18 event. Couple questions...or point me n the right direction in forums
• What's in a Random Booster 8? (what types of parts/pieces/etc.)
• What's the details on the Block round robin format? Exactly how does that work?
• I see most of you have points & rankings, etc. Are those from tournaments, and how did that transfer to your accounts on this website?
Sorry if any of these seem stupid Just learning the ropes! Thanks!

No worries at all. We can help!
Random Booster 8 http://wiki.worldbeyblade.org/index.php/...de_Jupiter
I explained block round robin earlier in this thread, and GIYF for details beyond that.
Yup. You get points only from tournaments. Click the Beypoints link in the upper left of the WBO site for more details.
any other specific questions send me a PM and I can help fill you in. Otherwise a great forum to get started is http://worldbeyblade.org/Thread-Ask-a-qu...n-answer-2

To get on the list you must be confirmed that you are coming. "Most likely" won't get you on the list, so talk to your folks or whatever you need to do to make sure you are coming and then let us know for sure. Hope you can come!
I can't believe its double elimation again.I always wanted to do Block Round Robin
(Sep. 10, 2011 11:35 PM)Ryugablader Wrote: I can't believe its double elimation again.I always wanted to do Block Round Robin
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.
Wow this is crazy so many new bladers are coming. I might not be able to come though because I just lost my ride but I am hoping to find another, if I can't go then good luck to everyone, I ll be rootin for the newbies haha.
I will be comin Confirmed

I might not be able to come....lost my ride. im sad.

Awesome! I'm sure you have a few scores to settle since it's been a while since your last tourney... Glad you will be there!

In the immortal words of Tim Gunn, "Make it work!". Ask around here to see if anyone lives close to you. As the tourney will most likely be block round robin, everyone will come and leave at about the same time...
haha thanks 
and actually by spreading the word of beyblades my friend might wanna try and go and give me a ride!!!

I'm really sorry to hear that man!
well, if I get any more stadiums I'll let you know, but I can't sit on this stuff for months at a time. After the tournament I will post the thread for October's tournament and start talking to folks about the stuff that they might want me to order at that point.

meet up location, gps address etc. is in the OP.
Basically there's like an hour of free play during registration. At noon I cut off registration and start making the tournament brackets. Usually takes about 15 minutes if no technology issues. Then its all 3-2-1 let it rip!
How many bb10 attack stadiums are there gonna be. last tournament we had there was only 3
