RE: UK, London tornament? Anyone intrested? - TheGigsMeister - Sep. 18, 2008
Wow...This topic now has a pages worth of debate on it over carrying bags in London...
RE: UK, London tornament? Anyone intrested? - Dreamborn - Sep. 18, 2008
No, But i'm not saying that Toronto is like London (transport wise) or vice versa. If you thought about it logically and put
they both have a similar underground subway system.
London has more than twice the population of Toronto
London is the capital of England (London being the biggest attraction of the UK)
So, twice the population, plus tourists, and the underground being the transport of choice (and a landmark in itself) Of course it's going to be really busy.
Honestly, It's not worth having a debate about who's transport is busier than who's.
EDIT : Gigs, perhaps we should go make a thread about the pro's and cons of carrying different styles of bags in the London district on different modes of transportation? I choose Harp case in DLR train XD

Yep XD
I'll be posting up Travel info soon.
I'm going to take a guess that a lot of people will be travelling to London by Train?
eitherway you need to take tubes, I know how to get there From London Paddington station and it doesn't look like buses go up there.
For those of you who haven't been on tubes before, you're in for a treat XD especially if you find the intercom wailing "MIND THE GAP!" all the time hilarious. (I'm easily amused
)You also need to take a DLR train, they're uber scary since they're magnet trains...meaning..NO DRIVER!
RE: UK, London tornament? Anyone intrested? - Roan - Sep. 18, 2008
Are you seriously saying that you can't carry a suitcase because you think you're going to get mugged?
NEWS FLASH: No one wants to mug a greasy nerd in plated armor and his lizard-queen girlfriend.

That's not the case.
And seriously. give over with the childish insults already. It's getting mundane.

yeah roan, give over with :pwn:

Stop trying to act like you're an intelligent human being and fly back to whatever carp space colony you came from you freak.
RE: UK, London tornament? Anyone intrested? - Pikachao - Sep. 18, 2008
CALM DOWN.
People won't mug you, if you're afraid of that (I would be), go with a friend or many friends and make sure you stay in places with lots of people but not too many.

RE: UK, London tornament? Anyone intrested? - May The Pirate - Sep. 18, 2008
Lol. is all I have too say.
I've said this many times now. Everything you say does not bother me, you can "insult" me all you like, i'm not going to rise up to it and get into an arguement over the internet with someone I don't know nor give a carp about.
and this is completely irrelevant to the topic so I don't see your reason for posting "insults" at me regardless. If you want to take out some form of problem you seem to have on me, then kindly do it through a PM and not on someone's thread.
RE: UK, London tornament? Anyone intrested? - Dreamborn - Sep. 18, 2008
Keep up the good job Roan, always good for a laugh or two XD
Pikachao : I'm not really that worried about being mugged tbh (if it happens it happens) The tubes arent my most fondest of transport to be fair, so i'd much rather look into busing it from Paddingon or Victoria road. Last time Gekiryu and I came to london, our train tickets total cost was £160 >_>
EDIT : But yeah, I'd love to see a tournament for this game happen. If you need someone to arrange prize support, I'm sure I can either keep some of my hms's i've won back for it, or get some particularly nice things from MOJ for it.
what do you guys reckon for prizes? HMS, plastics, MFB's or a mixed variety? I know for BND Brad handed out a hell of alot of stuff (including stadiums) Though I dont know what people would be interested in to be fair.
RE: UK, London tornament? Anyone intrested? - TheGigsMeister - Sep. 18, 2008
Yeah, this thread has gone waaay off topic
RE: UK, London tornament? Anyone intrested? - May The Pirate - Sep. 18, 2008
back on topic.
The costs for the convention and availability of tickets will end up coming up towards the end of the year, if not when the tickets go on sale about March next year.
tickets are also available on the day for those of you who can't buy them from the website for whatever reason.
Dreamborn also said that he doesn't mind doing judging for the tournie

I couldn't find anything on London as far as murder statistics, but people carry pull along bags and briefcases in Chicago all the time.
I doubt you're going to get stabbed/mugged.
RE: UK, London tornament? Anyone intrested? - Blitz - Sep. 18, 2008

Shouldn't be to much hassle.

Much appreciated, do you know 'which' stadium it is by any chance?
RE: UK, London tornament? Anyone intrested? - Rakstar - Sep. 19, 2008
I know this isn't related to the discussion you're currently having about the stadiums, but me and my friends would definitely be interested in coming to a tournament based in London.
Especially cuz it's home. xD

RE: UK, London tornament? Anyone intrested? - Blitz - Sep. 19, 2008
I will be getting the MFB Balance Stadium when its out.
That will be my only Takara Stadium i'll have at the moment.
By the time the tourement goes ahead i may have more.
RE: UK, London tornament? Anyone intrested? - ChozenBlader - Sep. 21, 2008
Okay, firstly, we need volunteers to be judges. Secondly, it has been confirmed; there will be a Plastic division and a Metal division.
Secondly, the tournament will be called... dun da da da dun dun dun dah! Spinoff!

Happy to say that this is now the official 'UK tournament, Spinoff!' topic!
