I've posted some stuff about this before,but this is the first topic about it.
In order to create a better BeyPoints system (and to make the 3 Segment Launcher grip not ENTIRELY useless),me and some of my friends devised a Universal Ranking Card that can be used to track points for Beybattles in a simple,easy to use manner.
Here's how it works:
1.Answer a few questions (Your WBO name,your birthday,do you have a passport, etc etc etc...)
2.A printable card will be issued to you through your registered e-mail (You might want a color printer for this)
3.Cut out the card and stick it in a trading card protector (preferably a hard one)or laminate it.
4.Fight some BeyBattles!
5.Report your results to a registered representative (I need to find volunteers to do this besides me).
6.Every month,a new card will be issued.
7.Lather,rinse,repeat.
I'll attach a picture of what the card looks like too,so you get an idea of what the idea is.
i don't see why this is better than having an online account?
I think that these cards should be in every members profile instead on having as a card
Thank you for your input. An online version might be a good idea.
The physical option was originally made to make the 3 Segment LAuncher grip's card holder have more use for those who have no use for a Beypoint Card.But integrating it into the online system might work just as well.
I was also thinking that for things like the WBO passport,people could just flash the card (It has a spot where a passport mark goes) and get access to WBO events.
But I appreciate your feedback.
Hm, all of what would appear on the card will already be implemented in the online profiles or some similar location anyway, except the "birthday face". It does not need to be in the format of a card online.
The new card being issued every month seems very tedious. The rankings are already online.
What if it just an I.D specifying that you are a owner of a Blader Passport?
EDIT: I just realized that what I just said is basically Striker Society. lol
Well It can be unuseful,
Your idea is use it to identify members in a WBO tournaments?

You can't be unridiculous.
i do agree with NAP, it would be pretty cool to have a printable I.D. card for the passport.
I m agree with kanato and NAP
I also agree, now that i'm thinking of buying one.
wouldn't implementing this be exactly the same as having a beypoint card anyway? except due to technological impairments would be much more troublesome. This would also raise the cost to those who have blader passports. printing costs money. I'm sure many valid poitns agaisnt this have been brought up already.
5000 members updated every month.
The WBO staff are awesome... but they're not gods.
How about we issue these to people that go and have ranked battles ONLY.
I know that sounds mean but a good amount of people in the WBO don't go to tourneys (Unfortunately)
Even though with this the WBO staff and other trustworthy people will still have their hands full.
"The WBO staff are awesome... but they're not gods."
only people who go to tourneys sounds good,but people who buy the cards who regularly don't go to tourneys would be mad about how they spent their money and didn't get a card when many other people did get one. All together this a good idea though.

The committee got rid of ranked battles because people abused it.
Is this really a good idea? So, who's going to pay for these? Considering BlackAce's proposal is to issue one every month:
65 of you have Passports at the moment. 65 x 12 is already 780. Even if each one cost a dollar, which they clearly don't, that would be $780. If all our Passport Subscription money went into this, 65 x $10 = $650, we still wouldn't have enough. And then there's hosting fees, prizes for tournaments, shipping of cards ... and oh yes, these cards don't cost a dollar each to make.
It's a cool idea I suppose, but it doesn't take a genius to understand that it's also extremely naive and poorly thought out.

Did I really write "ranked battles"?
My bad. I meant tourneys.
Also, only 65 people have passports out of around 5000?
That in its own way is kind of depressing ._.
You know what I'm just gonna say it (and no offense to the OP)
This isn't feasible, it's not happening. Keep dreaming.

I understand what your saying now.
and yes it is a cool idea. Mainly the problem i'm seeing typed over and over again is the cost. Simple(but probably wont work) raise the cost to twenty.
ok I got it. Why not email the passport to the people who bought them. Then they print them out, or something like that.I don't remember the word at this time but you know how you can like get a sheet of paper and take it somewhere and they like wrap it in plastic and it's like a drivers license.(if anyone knows the word plz post it) but the people who print them out could have the option of doing that.
No ones paying $20 for some garbage card they get over e-mail.
lol yea i know I forgot to put no $20 just 10 for thing over email.
still doubt it. i don't really see what's wrong with the current system.
Creating a card, to put into the card slot of the 3 segment launcher grip, for a beypoint card thing anyway...
