Specific info for those that get confused easily:
When: July 4th, midday till whenever people need to leave by.
Where: Regent's Park in Central London. Meet at the Ready Money Drinking Fountain because it's easy to find but shouldn't be majorly crowded. From there we can scout out a nice spot to battle.
Map of Regent's Park: http://www.royalparks.org.uk/docs/park_m...ts_map.pdf
What: Was supposed to be more of a meet and greet thing, but seeing as it looks like a load of people will turn up, we're having a MFB format tourney. Most likely BRR. There won't be any prizes though, just Faces and, uh, glory and respect and such. >.>
Either bring a packed lunch or some money for one of the cafés near by. We'll probably get some drinks later on (hopefully it'll be a nice hot day). Maybe even ice-cream.

Assuming this doesn't get cancelled or postponed, I'll put up my number closer to the time. I can also put up instructions, travel help, etc, if necessary.
I don't think anything else needs to be said. Questions can be posted here or asked in PMs. I know it's near impossible for the UK lot but it'd be nice if we could keep the meaningless chatter in this thread to a minimum? Please? :X
Thanks for the awesome graphics theflightyellz!
Just in case anyone was wondering, the passport/charge rules are coming into affect immediately. This means that if you want to compete then you will have to pay a charge. For us UK bladers it's only £3 so I think you can manage. Alternatively, you could purchase a Blader Passport. You can buy them online beforehand or at the event if you're not sure how much you'll use it, etc. If for some reason you have major issues with this then hit me up a PM. :3
Also, there will be some sort of penalty if you say you turn up and then don't so don't risk it okay? If you're in the 'definites' list and you're not sure if you can come, change to the 'possibles'.
For those of you who wish to buy beyblades at the event, please see this thread: http://worldbeyblade.org/Thread-Anyone-s...mmer-smash
Also this post specifically if you wish to buy direct from theintoy at the event (yes that means MFB): http://worldbeyblade.org/Thread-Anyone-s...#pid163192

Looks great! However, I think it may have been better sans the cityscape on the bottom. Just the two Beyblades clashing would have been better. Or, if you really wanted to keep the cityscape, getting rid of that green rectangle on the bottom somehow would be great; it is just sort of there for no reason right now.
theflightyellz that poster is sweet!
oh but this does put pressure on me now does it?

Be sure to check the dates! Holidays and tourneys at the same time sounds confusing. ^^;

I'm gonna put this in the first post too so people don't miss it.
or for everything? Then it should be like 3.5 euros?
(5,0000 USD = 3,5117 EUR)
Or do you prefer GBP?
I kinda need GBP, we might lose money if we have to convert Euros and it probably wouldn't be worth it. Unless you're talking about the charge in general in which case it'd be whatever currency the tourney took place in. It all get's sent off in dollars anyways, courtesy of Paypal.

I think I will just pay for this tournament, later going
to buy a Passport (when I have MFB).

Good to have you on board though.

Lol, the summer face but I don't think it would be worth it, the spinoff one was/is more than enough.
Sorry for those that didn't get that face though.
