Okay okay, let's turn those frowns upside-down. 
We've gotta move on from this. No use dwelling on how we all kinda screwed up, we've gotta move on to planning even more amazing stuffs. And uh, plan them well this time. XD
As I see it we now have two choices. Either relocate for the day or reschedule completely. Both have their pros and cons so let's have a look at them shall we?
Relocating would be simpler for the people who were only coming to the Expo for the Spinoff and possibly people that had already made travel arrangements. However, for the people that intended to go to the Expo anyways, this would be awkward as they wouldn't be able to make it. I for one would still be going to the Expo so this isn't my favoured choice but if it turns out that this is the option easiest for the majority of UK bladers then we'll go with that.
Rescheduling would mean we could have the whole thing a little later. This may give people the chance to calm down. We'd have complete choice of when and where to hold it and if we scheduled it later we could stop stressing over whether we're all gonna have Metal Faces and RFs and stuff in time. XD Plus some of the people that couldn't come to the Exop may possibly be able to make this one....
And then a pro for both of them, you no longer have to be worried about being attacked by crazed otaku.
(unless you include me XD)
So we need to decide whether to relocate or reschedule. And then we need to decide on a place (there's a lot of scope for this in London so don't worry about that too much). And if we decide to reschedule we need to find when people are free. I think the main options for that are:
- the week following the Expo as school aged peoples will be on half term (could be awkward for workers though)
- the summer holidays
- the weekends and any bank holidays leading up to the summer holidays
Right, get thinking about it then. We're all in this together now.
Also, I don't wanna see anyone trying to spread the blame on this thing. There are a load of things that were poorly done but as UK members we're all partly responsible. Plus despite the outcome, people were working really hard towards this and getting pretty stressed out. And even though it didn't work in the end, it got us one step closer right? Now we're serious about having an event and we've gone and bought beyblades and such and I dunno how quickly that would've happened before. So if anything, you should thank them. XD Because being all negative is no fun.
Oh and one more thing, we were hoping Spinoff would be pretty big but we haven't even seen each other before. This is the very first UK event so why don't we make it more like a meet and greet tourney? Take it relaxed, we could have lunch beforehand or something I dunno. But uh, let's leave that side till later. ^^;
Now, how do you guys wanna do this?
