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

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!

on topic: how long are the queues for a normal ticket (at about 1:00). Also, will there be a proper tourney or can anyone battle with anyone. If so, I could prob bring my stadium

Err im estimating 20mins - 1hr for your wait Tongue_out

Oh and i should be there at 12 - 12:30 Joyful_3 not as much as a rush as it isnt a toruney
Aw, better luck next time Alex. Unhappy

Sunday is gonna be sooo empty. :X We're gonna have to nab a lot of random congoers out of the aisles to play with us.....>_>

Not much to say at the moment, we put up some tables and stuff, the area is a little smaller than last time but it's bigger than I expected and it's kind of homely. Also it has carpet! <3 So less damage to beys that fly out across the floor. Oh and we got to go on the DDR and game machines, unlimited freeplay, no queue. Grin And there is the most amazing Charizard plushie there. I totally want it but it sort of disappeared.....it's there somewhere, just not sure where. Will prolly be expensive though. ^^;
Uh, rambling over. See you guys tomorrow!
I'll say hi but idk if I'll have time to blade on saturday. D:

Got a lot of things planned. I'll definitely drop in and bring a couple plastics to play if I do get the chance. See y'all tomorrow.
Just sorted out my bag for tomoz, lots of stuff to sell Tongue_out, anyway see some of you tomoz Smile
Will be there bright and early. Had a few drinks coz its my mates 21st but hey. Will see all tomorrow!

Probably the first one back, so how was you time at the expo?

Uploading to Youtube now. I will edit this post once it is uploaded and on-air.

Also, they'll be a big eyecatching picture in my sig so people wont miss it Wink

EDIT!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHVCxTKIOC0

Still processing, quality will be gold soon.
Nice, looks like it was fun. I live in Bristol and I would have come but I'm in Austria at the minute.
Why on earth were so many blades from older series being used?
Saturday is surely meant to be the busiest day of the expo, and we're trying to promote the use of MFB, not HMS and plastics.
There was only one mfb on mfb battle in that video that didn't involve any previous series, and even with that they were all launched at different times.
Lol, I didnt even notice there was 1MFB battle Tongue_out
Wow today was long!!! We must have got near on 50 people wanting to sign up for the WBO so look out for them hopefully they do. And i asure you there were more metal fight battles than anything we just had plastics about for newbies and then we were showing them how much better mfb's are. Wicked day doh, gotta do it all again tomorrow =D
The only reason i hardly filmed stuff cause it was only a 1GB SD

Good to hear, was any film made of the MFB battles or of people trying them out?
Would be good to have some for a video for the beychannel.
We didnt as we were quite busy most of the day but im not sure about others, there were a few people filming so hopefully they can get them up soon
