Well I think most of you know this is happening but because I'm rubbish I never really totally comnfirmed anything, except maybe to some of the guys I was chatting with at Regents Rumble. Anyways, this is definitely on. Sorry for the wait.

Basically, this time around we won't be having a fullscale tourney. If you want to compete between yourselves I can draw up a few RR grids while we're there but we won't be having a large tourney like last time. It'll be mainly freebattles and then for newbies, demos, explanations, etc. We need to make people feel welcome, chat to them and battle with them, etc. Grin

Then, probably on the Saturday 3 weeks after the tourney, we'll have a tournament at Regents Park. Hopefully, we'll have got some new people interested at the Expo and might get a bigger turn out for this time around, but even if we don't then it'll still be nice to see everyone again and get some battles in. Can anyone who's interested PM or post here whether they can make that date? It'd be the 14th November. Also, any suggestions for tourney names and such are welcome. XD

If you have restrictions and think you'll only be able to make one event then I'd suggest trying to make the tourney. However, I still want to see as many people as possible at the Expo because we'll have loads of fun and battles there too and I need you guys to help spread the Beyword. Wink

Any other questions, post here or PM me. Please, please make sure you know how you're getting there, travelling around London can be tricky, especially when random tube lines are closed sporadically.

This is the attendance list so far, question marks next to those who I'm not totally sure about or who said they were coming but didn't specify a day. I kinda assumed people were coming on the Staurday as that's normally the busiest day but I could be wrong so if you're coming on the Sunday or even both days then let me know!

Ah, it seemed like fun but I wasn't able to make it to london on that day, I really like anime so that would have been great too but I didn't know in time... Pity.
--------------------------
It would have been awesome to Blade against others and meet a few members... maybe next time!

Finally got around to posting. Smile
Was a little aprehensive at beforehand but the whole weekend went really well. Sunday was a little quieter but that was to be expected, overall, lots of new, happy faces, hope a few of them will join us here. Joyful_3 Yeah, there was a lot of plastic action over the weekend but I don't see any issues with that. As there was no tourney, it didn't have to be amazingly official, it was more about fun and attracting people (hence the addition of a Hasbro stadium for the kids you know just want a messy five-for-all battle - Draciel Fortress is very holey now). Smile Lots of people were attracted by nostalgia and then interested by the new stuff, think we (well, Matt) sold a fair amount of MFBs to newcomers. Smile
Now to start thinking about November~ ^^;

Well atleast this time it wasn't a shambles and also as bad as in may, may was hectic. (haven't used that word in a long time or heard it).
Oct. 26, 2009  11:58 PM

Steady on now, May wasn't a shambles. Tongue_out Was just kinda busy. XD
Oct. 27, 2009  1:48 AM
 
Yo, finally got on because parents are in bed so i can sneak on the laptop. Tongue_out Anyway, Saturday was great and a lot of fun. I don't see what the problem is with there being plastic battles, they were still good and two metals gotten beaten by a plastic which was a Draciel. Pinching_eyes Anyway, it was nice to see everyone again and new faces like BBgoldflame and BlackPheonix. Also, sorry that i rushed off like I did, the group I was with were leaving then but I hope I was some help.

Also, sorry to hear about the blades man. Unhappy

I'm glad you had a nice time at the expo on saturday Zander i also very much enjoyed it, i agree with what you said about the plastic beys, surely if people like beyblade again no matter what series well then surely they will by mfb next year at spring cause they would be like oh i remember those they're beyblades i really liked those when i was younger and then will buy them from hasbro or whatever.

I took a load of beyblades but not very many of actual people...there are a few but you can't really tell what's happening, it's just a load of people round various tables, oftenblurry because everyones moving. ^^;

Here's a little selection of what I did get though. Smile

1. Lots of stuff, mainly bit chips, on a table....(okay so the pictures are pretty self explanatory but whatever)
2. Leone combo and a plastics ripcord, they were lying there, I thought they looked nice together.
3. Quetz and Pisces combos looking awesome.
4 - 6. In battle pictures but you can't really tell they're spinning....
7 - 8. More in battle pictures taken under different settings - blurry, but you can tell they're moving.
9. All the bey stuff under our table. There's like two or three toolboxes that weren't in that pic too.
10. Matt's finger after a collision with a ripcord. Pinching_eyes_2

Oct. 27, 2009  2:16 PM

Oct. 27, 2009  2:18 PM

Chief - Sigh ...

I meant pictures where they are actually depicted as being in motion, rather than freeze-frame shots.
