SUNDAY, MAY 4 2014 - 1PM
High Park - Toronto, Ontario, Canada
LIMITED FORMAT

The road to the Grand Battle begins! Toronto Bladers, this is your chance to earn paid travel expenses (if necessary) to ANIME NORTH, along with an AN Pass to play in the WBO North American Championship, GRAND BATTLE TOURNAMENT 2!!

Location:
We'll be playing in the shelter where we usually play. If you're coming to High Park via the Bloor entrance, just follow that road down on the right side and you'll see the large building/shelter on the left hand side before you reach the tennis courts. If you have any questions about the location, please post here! This map has the area we'll be playing in roughly outlined:



Mandatory $5 Entry Fee = More Qualifiers + Extra Credits + Free Face Booster!
To help subsidize the high cost of flying/busing the qualifiers to Toronto, a mandatory $5 entry fee will be imposed on all Qualifier Series tournaments, regardless of whether or not a participant has a Blader Passport (if you wish to purchase a Blader Passport, the total cost would be $15 at a Qualifier Series tournament), and there will be no prize reimbursement apart from the travel expenses for the winner. We hope that everyone can understand this! The more funds we have, the bigger this championship will be! However, to show our appreciation for your cooperation and support in helping to fund the championship, all participants in Qualifier Series tournaments will receive the following:

What can I win?
The winner of this qualifier will receive the following:
  • Paid travel expenses, by plane/bus/public transit (if necessary, and whichever is cheapest) to ANIME NORTH 2014 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada for GRAND BATTLE TOURNAMENT 2.
  • An ANIME NORTH 2014 Pass
Qualifiers will be responsible for finding/paying for accommodations in Toronto, but we will work closely with each of you to make sure that you find somewhere suitable. Additionally, the winner will be required to consult with the Committee before booking their flight/bus, and then after approval, provide a booking confirmation to the WBO Committee before they can provide reimbursement for the traveling costs. We can also reimburse gas costs, but in that case, reimbursement will only take place in person after we have received gas receipts. If you are local to Toronto and plan on taking public transit to the venue for GRAND BATTLE TOURNAMENT 2, then you will simply have to present transfers to us when you arrive.

It was nice meeting you (again haha) today!
Today was an amazing day for me, even though I didn't do too well.

I landed up with a score of 3-3, but that didn't change how fun this was!

I'm now eligible to judge battles, thanks to LMAO. From what Kei told me, I'd be getting the DJ Face, since I judged the majority of battles in my block, and two in the semi finals.

JesseObre also gave me his Beypointer, which excited me lots!

But anyways, congratulations to Scott, Jesse, and David for placing! It was great seeing you all once again. I'm hoping to see the newer members return once again for both GBT2, and other events in Toronto during the Summer.

See you all at Anime North! Smile

Edit: I'm pretty sure my wins and losses as of now are 38 wins, and 48 losses. I'm terrible. XD

Good luck everyone!

Thanks for rooting for me, sucks I couldn't have been right for your gut Unhappy

At least I was 4th aha. I was 5-1 in my block and then I went 2-3 in the next round :p

It's okay though hopefully I can place at the Standard Format tournament at AN!

I really hope you lose, only because I have you on video vowing that you would win haha.

It was pretty exciting to meet both you, and your friends.

I remember me being the first one there, and then both LMAO and The Sponge coming. We saw you and your friends, and started to yell things like ''Let it rip'', and even your username a couple times, for you to notice that we were there for this event. It was pretty hilarious.
Cool, Zankye just posted a video of his visit at this qualifier yesterday :

nice vid we see me losing agains jesse Crying haha

oh I forgot this is Kei who does written result for the website?

At one point you sees my head (I'm the guy with the camp cap and the red jacket).Meeting Zankye was sooooo cool i don't think I've ever been that excited in my life.

Thank you for organizing this!

Thanks for the support Kei! (Watch when I win) :Andrew:

ALSO, TO EVERYONE AT THE TOURNAMENT YESTERDAY. IF YOU HAVE STOLEN SUNTAILHAWK'S DUO METAL WHEEL, PLEASE GIVE IT BACK. IF YOU MISTAKENLY TOOK IT PLEASE LET HIM KNOW ASAP! IT'S NOT FAIR TO HIM! THANK YOU.

It was great meeting you too, Byxis! I hope to see you and many others at our future events! It was a great turnout yesterday, for once!

See ya'll at Anime North! (Toronto IS winning it all this year).
I don't see his duo at the tournament... may be he can ask to people in his block.

Even if you don't win that easily, you're still a champ. Or as Daegor would say, you'd still be better than Scott.

Also, if somebody did take it, I find it absolutely rude and disrespectful that they would take others belongings. I'd also expect it to be one of the kids with SuntailHawk, during the semis (discluding The Sponge). Hopefully It'll turn up.
Hello Everyone, Zankye here was a pleasure to visit the tournament yesterday , I'll be ready for next time.
I was talking to my father maybe we could sponsor in terms of prizes a beyblade tournament if you guys want it, maybe towards the end of school, just a thought let us know what you guys think. Thanks for having Us.

It was an absolute honour having you donate all those wonderful prizes, and most importantly, others getting the initiative to meet you! I hope to see both you and your father once again. (:
Hmmm I have not seen SuntailHawk's Duo wheel at the tournament,I'm sorry to hear that it went missing and hopefully it turns up!

Zankye meeting you (sort of) was soooooo amazing!

Thank You for coming!
Im glad you guys aren't using that wobbly new stadium, i thought i was gonna have to drastically change my style. Congrats on the winners!
congratulation to jesse too for winning the pass to the gran final! I would like to play again vs your earth d125 XD.

Kei and jesse, did you find my Meteo Ldrago combo? ^^ I must upgrade it, it was a little too light against big attacker like your bey kei ^^ hah

You mean who inputs the results for the BeyPoint System? Lately it has been Uwik, but I always do the Toronto tournaments myself.

Thanks again for coming out! It was nice meeting you and your father, and I can't thank you enough for the awesome prize donation. Looking forward to seeing you again sometime this summer, hopefully.

If you ever want to organize anything again, feel free to have your father e-mail me about it and we can figure it out from there.

Well, we do have ZERO-G Format tournaments sometimes! The theme lately has been Limited Format, though.
