9:00 PM - GRAND BATTLE PRELUDE: Heavy Metal System

Mixing and matching the contemporary with the classic, kicking off the GRAND BATTLE TOURNAMENT 2 weekend is GRAND BATTLE PRELUDE: Metal Fight Beyblade (Standard Format) and GRAND BATTLE PRELUDE: HMS! These tournaments will be smaller than the championship the following day, but with qualifiers from across North America arriving in Toronto not long before this tournament starts, the competition will surely be fierce. If you're going to be at Anime North on Friday night, come join us for one final battle (or two!) until the main event!!

Why should I participate in all of these tournaments?
Besides how much fun it's going to be to play in every existing WBO Organized Play Format over one weekend ... as an added incentive to encourage everyone to participate in as many of these tournaments as possible, there will be added benefits to participating in any (or all!) of the tournaments at AN!:

”But I don’t have an HMS Beyblade for GRAND BATTLE PRELUDE: Heavy Metal System!”
No bey? No prob! If necessary, I will allow people to borrow one of my HMS Beyblades for their battles. Smile If anyone else attending can do the same for those in need, it would be appreciated!


Tournament registration will begin at around 5:30PM, but we will have the room starting from 5PM, so if anyone wishes to go early and free battle, please do so! And as always, the Credits, BeyPoints, Faces, and prizes will be awarded!

If you think you can make it, please post which tournament(s) you’ll be attending and I'll start building an attendance list!

I'll buy one off of you for $10. Would that be the price range you'd be looking for? If so, I'll pm you before this event.
I'm in for both! See you there!
For Kei/Kai-V/People with the AN Passes-

So something to ask- my flight doesn't come in until 10:30ish that night, but I'd still need to pick up my AN Pass for the next morning. Would it be easier to come to the hotel straight from my flight that night or just to go early in the morning to get it?

Shouldn't have been any other way!

You can come straight to the hotel in the lobby. Do you have the cell phone number of anyone who is going to be there? If so, text them when you get there and have them tell me that you've arrived so I can come out and give you your pass. That way you can hang out with us for a bit on Friday night. Smile

edit: Also, can you PM me your full name? I need to provide a list of names to AN so they can get the passes ready.

Awesome, I PM'ed you.

I messaged LMAO, but if he doesn't get it in time, if anyone going would feel comfortable with giving me their cell, please PM it to me- I really appreciate it.
Ahem, put me as a possible.
Question;

I'm diabetic, and I must eat at a certain time. If I were to pick something to eat, would I be able to eat it in the actual room?

Thanks!

I ate there before last year. And there is space right outside the room to eat if necessary. And there are several restaurants right by the convention also.

Thanks, Dark. It's much appreciated. (:

In exchange of CAD to USD he would get 10 USD out of 12 CAD

Great, I'd hope for you to come, Jesse. (:

I'll also be bringing the money I owe you from the Beypointer there.
Thought I'd just post this earlier, since I probably won't be active tomorrow morning:

Tomorrow's the day. It feels just yesterday these threads were uploaded. I'm really excited to meet you all. I couldn't be more excited for this entire weekend!

Also, ULTIMATE BLAZE, I'll meet up with you there, with the things I'll be selling to you. (:
Hey everyone, if you haven't noticed, we have the Haliburton Room at the Sheraton all weekend! So, I think the best place for us all to meet will be in there. For those of you who don't have passes yet and are waiting on them from me (qualifiers/volunteers), try waiting at the room and if someone asks you for a pass just wait in the lobby area where the couches are (you'll see them when you get there) if I haven't arrived yet. I'll try to be there by the early afternoon though, so unless some of you are arriving really early, there isn't likely to be a problem. See you all tomorrow! Grin
will anybody be selling or letting me borow a left string lancher or l/r string launcher for torromow? Thanks bladery66Joyful_3

I'm in need of borrowing one as well.

Anyways, I'm sure either Kei or LMAO wouldn't mind letting you use one of theirs.

Anyways, today's the big day. See everyone soon, and good luck to you all! (:
