It's actually a 50/50 chance I'll be able to make it this weekend. I'm absolutely swamped with school work and it's heavy stuff.

BEYBLADE CRUSADE
SATURDAY, MAY 28, 2011
Sheraton Toronto Airport Hotel - Muskoka 3 Room
hosted by AN GAMING @ Anime North 2011
STANDARD (MFB/BMF) FORMAT
9 AM - Free Battle and Set Up
10 AM - Registration for BEYBLADE CRUSADE: Wake Up Call
10:30 AM - BEYBLADE CRUSADE: Wake Up Call
11 AM - Registration for Bladers who have signed up and paid online
11:30 AM - General Registration for BEYBLADE CRUSADE
12:30 PM - BEYBLADE CRUSADE
For the past three years we've hosted our marquee tournament at ANIME NORTH–BEYBLADE'S NOT DEAD! in 2008, BEYBLADE WAR ROOM in 2009, BEYBLADE REVIVAL CUP in 2010–and this year will be no different! In association with the AN GAMING division of AN2011 we will be hosting our tournament this year under the title, BEYBLADE CRUSADE!
No Beyblade? No problem! We're going to try to obtain Beyblades to bring with us so you'll be able to draft the parts to form a full Beyblade (for approx. $10), then you can play and trade with other Bladers before the tournament to hone your skills!
A Blader Passport is not required for this tournament, as AN does not allow event organizers to charge entry fees for events within the convention. However, if you want to support the WBO so we can host even better tournaments with even better prizes in the future, and participate in the BeyPoints ranking System in future tournaments, then you will need one! So, if you wish to purchase one at the tournament, that is still possible. To participate in the tournament, you must either purchase a weekend pass or a day pass at AN (if you wish to participate in all of the events and programming that AN has to offer), or alternatively, AN has graciously created a special $6 ticket this year for people who want to participate only in BEYBLADE CRUSADE.
You can sign up/purchase your ticket here: http://www.formstack.com/forms/?1062968-hwu8IOQkLu
Once purchased, you will receive an e-mail confirmation. On the day of BEYBLADE CRUSADE, present this confirmation to the person registering everyone and you will be given some sort of identification (probably a stamp or wristband).
The people who choose to sign up online and pay their fee can register half an hour prior to general registration. When general registration for people who have not signed up online begins, a second line for the people who did sign up/pay online will be formed as well in case they chose not to arrive earlier. As you can imagine, this second line for people who have signed up/paid already will move quite quickly. So, it is to your advantage to sign up/pay in advance!
The AN tournament has become a tradition of sorts, and while what we've accomplished in the past three years has been great … we are not going to rest on our laurels this time around! We're going to take this tournament to the next level.
How so, you ask? In an effort to build awareness and excitement for BEYBLADE CRUSADE this May we are going to be hosting three tournaments in the upcoming months under the name "BEYBLADE CRUSADE RECRUITMENT SESSIONS". Here's how each of them is going to work:
[Image: RECRUITMENTSESSIONSsmall.png]
BEYBLADE CRUSADE Recruitment Session: 1 - March 26, 2011
- 15 participant limit
- Round Robin
- Top two finishers gain the ability to choose who they face in the first round of BEYBLADE CRUSADE, should they attend.
- Top two finishers from Recruitment Session: 1: Kei & !!!
BEYBLADE CRUSADE Recruitment Session: 2 - April 30, 2011
- 30 participant limit
- Block Round Robin
- Top two finishers gain the ability to choose who they face in the first round of BEYBLADE CRUSADE, should they attend.
- Top two finishers from Recruitment Session: 2: Xman8024 & Pyro
BEYBLADE CRUSADE Recruitment Session: 3 - May 15, 2011
- No limit on participants
- Single elimination
- First place finisher gains the ability to choose who they face in the first round of BEYBLADE CRUSADE, should they attend.
- Top finisher from BEYBLADE CRUSADE Recruitment Session: 3: ElJihado
Hopefully the possibility of gaining this slight advantage in BEYBLADE CRUSADE will be enticing for you all! Along with BeyPoints, Faces, and prizes, of course. And as you can see, it becomes more difficult to procure the aforementioned ability with each tournament that passes. Additionally, the order in which the top finishers choose who they face in that first round will be according to which tournament they placed in, but reversed (ex. If you come in first place at the first Recruitment Session, then you will have the last choice of who you want to face in the first round of BEYBLADE CRUSADE. This way, even if someone else picks you, you can still choose not to face them if you do not want to, thus nullifying their choice, forcing them to choose someone else).
Will you be at AN on Friday night? If so, then you might want to check out our other tournament, BEYBLADE CRUSADE: Roll Call!
We encourage all Bladers, both the brand new and the old to attend BEYBLADE CRUSADE, hosted by AN GAMING! With Beyblade's popularity continuing to rise, and our efforts to make this an even bigger tournament than it has ever been in the past, this has the possibility of becoming the largest tournament we have ever hosted, which means that competition will be fiercer than ever! You don't want to miss it! Hope to see you there!
If you think you'll be able to come to BEYBLADE CRUSADE, please post here and I will start building an attendance list!

From Corus Entertainment and YTV, a sneak peek of the second season of Beyblade, the adventure continues! Saturday at 12 PM in the International C Room of the Doubletree Hotel.
Also, at 6 PM in the International Cl, catch the Season finale!
Really, Corus Entertainment/YTV?
I say we send a few people over there just before 12 to steal away as many Beyblade fans as we can.
These guys are such jerks, seriously. How could they not work with you guys on this? It's unbelievable to me. Some of the dumbest communication I've ever seen.

I really was only interested in facing you. Meeting kei and kai-v would have been the only other reason anyway. Spin-Sonic and I were going to go on the megabus to there but there isn't any reason to now. We will talk about it. Just PM me.
You guys are lame. Way to miss out on the biggest Beyblade tournament of the year. My guess is you don't want to meet opponents who are going to wipe the floor with you.
See you all Saturday!
On our way! We should arrive at around 3:30pm

I know, right? :\ They may have contacted Ron this year, I'm not sure. I'll have to ask him. But evidently, they weren't that interesting in working with us if they've gone and done this.
Anyways, I'm about to leave for AN. See you guys soon!

That is the nature of tournaments.

Anyways, expect to see me there around 9:30 or so.
