This is an experimental MFL format tournament - Gravity and Screw will both be banned (as well as the recently unbanned Libra and Dark Knight)

Format: The format for this event is Experimental Metal Fight Limited, which is a restricted part Metal Fight Beyblade format. Please read the rulebook prior to confirming your attendance to ensure that you or your child have the appropriate equipment to compete. Legal parts / launchers will not be lent out by event staff.

Host: The Supreme One

Location: This event will be held outdoors at MLK Jr. Recreational Park.

Time: This tournament will start promptly after CrisisCrusher's Burst Standard event. As such, please plan to arrive around 3:30pm when this tournament is expected to conclude. Confirming your attendance on the WBO event page does not substitute for registration at the venue.


Other Information:
Please come prepared. It is helpful for both hosts and judges if all participants bring at least one Takara Tomy or Hasbro-manufactured Beyblade of their own and more than one launcher when possible. Additionally, parents of children under the age of 13 must be present for the duration of the event, as tournament end times can be difficult to estimate, and we would hate for someone to be left behind once it is over.

Be aware of your belongings. 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 players must arrive on-time. The tournament will begin no later than 4:00 PM and is expected to run for 2 hours, though if there is a large turnout it may take longer. Please plan accordingly. If you do not arrive at the scheduled start time, you risk being excluded from the tournament. The software we use to run our events–Challonge–does not allow us to add in extra participants once the tournament has started.

If you know in advance that you will be late, please post in this thread or contact someone at the event and depending on the circumstances we can perhaps still include you if we know you will arrive soon.

Need-to-Know Information

You must arrive by the tournament start time to enter. We cannot add new players to an event once it begins. If you're running late, contact the host.

3. Stay Aware of Your Belongings

4. The Tournament Will Last At Least a Few Hours

This event is likely to last at least a few hours. If you can't commit to the entire tournament, you're welcome to come watch and play for fun instead!

5. Listen For Your Username To Be Called

Is this a team event
How many beyblades do you need to bring
This is not a team event unfortunately!

Due to the low expected turnout, I will post a cancellation notice by end of day Wednesday if we have fewer than 6 participants for Saturday's event.

Sad to see a low turnout would love to see the results of an mfl tournament minus these two, would absolutely attend normally! but I’m out of town this weekend sadly.
Oof. Well, it's Easter weekend, I imagine a lot of people are busy.
Very fair. Postponing this to the following weekend, after CrisisCrusher's tournament.

Are you guys still going to run this event on April 8th (tomorrow)? It is listed as April 8th still, so you may want to change that in the OP. Just to reduce confusion if this is now supposed to be on the 16th. 

May be a foolish worry but imagine you don't run it and someone shows up to an empty space.
Running a bit late, but I will be there.
Apologies all! I thought I updated the OP, but it looks like my edit never went through. Per my comment above, this event has been postponed to April 16th due to low attendance.
If anyone would be willing to loan me parts for the event i would love to try an actual mfb tournament! Just unsure if i would enjoy it enough to invest in the product yet. And since ill already be here for crisis’ tournament, seems like a perfect time to give it a try!
Per the recent update, Libra and DK will naturally also be banned for this event.

Oh.
Hey all! I'll be selling a BB-10 with some warping around the edges (the part that touches the floor) and the outer walls for $150 at this tournament only! Please PM me if you would be interested - I'll post a video of the stadium in the WBO Maryland Discord.
Hey guys! Someone left a stadium at the tournament today! If you tell me the type and color of the stadium i can bring it to the next tournament you come to!
