No Bey? No Prob!
Don't have any Beyblades from this series? No problem! We would be happy to lend a Beyblade and launcher to you to use for the duration of the event!

Side Notes
Please be aware of your belongings: We'd advise users to please, please look after your stuff. While yes this is a Beyblade tournament and we're not suggesting that any of us would attempt to take each other's stuff it is still happening at a public venue where other people (who may not be so friendly) are going to be present as well. Of course, if you see a personal belonging lying around bring it up any of the judges so we can return it to the right person. Your co-operation is appreciated!

All players must arrive on-time: If you do not arrive at the scheduled start time, you risk being excluded from the tournament. The software we use to run our events–Challonge–does not allow us to add in extra participants once the tournament has started.

If you know in advance that you will be late, please post in this thread or contact someone at the event and depending on the circumstances we can perhaps still include you if we know you will arrive soon.


All questions for this tournament may be asked in this thread!

I am going to confirm the location next  month
On the 2

I might be able to go guys with my Team called the Sun Dragons
I put down where the tournament held at
Please put on warm clothes for the event it's going to be cold
TNT will sadly not be attending this event. Didnt really have time to prepare and have had some life issues recently. Maybe next time, if its indoors Tongue_out I cant deal with too much cold weather.

Next tournament is going to be at star city anime
Might be tough being outside? Any chance of finding an indoor spot? Hotel Roanoke perhaps? I can around and try to find a spot so we don't freeze!!! BTW My son "Phoenix Burst" will be coming and playing!

UPDATE: I just got off the phone with the Sheraton Roanoke Hotel 2801 Hershberger Rd NW, Roanoke, VA 24017
and they are willing to allow us to use any of their public space free of charge!! I've stayed here several times for work and when you go in and turn toward the right... down by the pool and elevator area... There is a great out of the way place we could hold the event?!? Also the restaurant closes at 11am on the weekends. So we could stage people in the chairs there too!

Checking now with Hotel Roanoke... though they seem booked on the 13th. Should hear back today on availability.

Really that would be really helpful if we can have some where that's warm
Ok Hotel Roanoke is not an option this time... They are booked solid with events that day. But are willing to help out in future. So I think we should go with the Sheraton on 2801 Hershberger Rd. You might want to swing over around 11am this Saturday and walk the site and perhaps talk to someone about what we are planning for the following Saturday - Like I said the Cafe closes at 11am on the weekends and I think that's a great place to have it, down by the indoor pool. People could sit and stage there and maybe we use the carpet area to battle? I say walk it and see what you like best! We have approval already!
Did you try contacting Mishap Games or Star City Games to see if you could host it there?

Are you saying Mishap won't let you host there anymore? 

And by Star City Games I mean the Star City Game Center on Williamson Rd. They usually aren't too busy on Saturdays and might consider letting us do a tournament there.

I'll ask if they let us
Is this event outside?

Is it going to be at the Sheraton hotel?

Don't know yet I'll determined it on Wednesday
We are coming Saturday - As I stated... the Sheraton is willing to let us use space inside. We need to lock down if you have another venue indoor or if we are going with the Sheraton?

So we can use the space at Sheraton because star city games didn't let use the space for the tournament
FYI, Mishap doesn't want Beyblade tournaments in their store anymore for the same reason Star City Games never let me hold any events at their store; they don't carry the game, so there's not a whole lot of incentive in it for them.
