[Toronto, Ontario, August 10th, 2014]- THIRST FOR BEYS and Plastics Resurrection!
High Park - Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Zero-G and Plastics
August, a month of absolute heat. Bottles of water, plastic bottles of water everywhere. Can't get the thought of thirst out of your head? Have you been lurking around the World Beyblade Organization a bit too much like some people, hoping to go to yet another awesome tournament in Toronto? Well, the time has come, everyone. Open the doors, and embrace the fact that the wait is almost over! On August 10th, both ~Midnight~ and I will be co-hosting a double header tournament featuring both Zero-G and Plastics format! We're hoping to see a lot of Toronto bladers out there on August 10th! Assuming we have enough attendees, this will be an official WBO tournament, so make sure to get your Blader Passport for $10 if you haven't done so already! Or, simply pay $5 (per tournament) if you plan attending these events.
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. In case you guys haven't been to our regular tournaments, here are some visual directions.
Formats: Both Zero-G and Plastics Format. Depending on the number of users we have show up to these events, we will most likely do Block Round Robin.
''But I don't own any Plastic Beyblades...?'':
Don't worry, no fear! Kei will let users borrow his Plastic Beyblades. ~Midnight~ would lend out his Plastic prize for users who don't own any Plastics from HMS' NOT DEAD 3, as well.
Tournament Times: Zero-G Format starts at 12:00 PM, however, please try your best to be there at least 30 minutes earlier for registration and free play. The Plastics event starts at 3:00 PM.
Prizes: Will be determined at the tournament
Side Note: 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 questions for this tournament may be asked in this thread.
We're keeping Toronto's bey-spirit alive, your support thus far is appreciated! Let's keep this up guys! If you wish to attend please post below, I'll start gathering an attendance list.

Good luck to you all tomorrow and hopefully we don't see too many F230's and Bearing Drives!I guess I better put my Phantom Orion back in the closet... Anyways, I am excited and I hope to have fun battling you guys!

LMAO Wrote:Zero-G is my strongest format.
It's not some people's..
Despite that, I'm really looking forward to it. I hope this tournament isn't a complete F230 washout, though.

Don't, it may do well! Just try bringing more of your items: I know there are members like me that most certainly wouldn't mind giving you assistance on the best variations you'd be able to make.
On another note, I'll be at the shelter where we regularly play at around 11:30, or so. I'm looking forward to seeing you all, and yet another restless night sleep. See you guys then!
Life things came up unexpectedly.
If I wrap things up by 2pm, I should be able to come for Plastics though! *crosses fingers*
Anyways, I should be heading out in around an hour and a half, hopefully making it there by 11:30. As mentioned, I'll be at the shelter where we regularly play at that time, as well.

Ah, that's quite unfortunate. Hopefully you'd be able to make it on the 30th, though.

Thanks to someone who didn't bring their Zero-G Stadium even though they were the host, THIRST FOR BEYS took longer than it should have due to us only having one stadium to work with, but it was a great day nevertheless! I think we ended up with 13 people for each tournament.
I fought through two tiebreakers in each tournament (both against Mango) to advance to the finals, so it was a tough road both times around. Even though I wasn't happy with the two losses I had in each tournament, going through that certainly made everything more satisfying in the end.
The finals against DSiks in Plastics Resurrection were intense; I ended up coming back from being down 2-0 against his Zombie using a somewhat random combo that I had lost to earlier in the tournament with my Wolborg 4 combo. It was something I gave to one of the kids who was in need of a Beyblade for the tournament, but never really thought through what it was capable of. Hopefully LMAO will post the combos soon.
edit: Tournament thread for Jesse's next tournament on August 24th is up!: http://worldbeyblade.org/Thread-Toronto-...of-the-Era
Anyways, congratulations to all the placers, especially pyrus10000 for doing quite awesome lately, and of course, DSiks for placing second in Plastics and on his second event, too!
EDIT: The photos I took will be up soon. I'm sure all of you Death Note fans will get a laugh out of one of them I took, if you attendees know what I mean.

I wouldn't necessarily call it 'co-hosting'; I found it to be that I did just as much work for Plastics Resurrection that you did for THIRST FOR BEYS. Sorry if I came off sounding rude, as well.
Though thank you! It was such an honour to be able to do this with you! It's going to really help me in the future! From attending a couple past few events this year, I realized what awesome people I met, that I can most definitely safely call my friends.
hb42 Wrote:I had a great time at this tournament, even if I had to leave before the second one. It was great battling for the first time in the Zero G stadium and battling Midnight (You are my opponents list Wink ). Thanks to LMAO and Midnight for making this amazing tournament possible!
ULTIMATE BLAZE Wrote:That was alot of fun today guys can't wait to see you guys at the next ternament
