We should seriously consider moving to Queens park which is just down the road.
Better scene, more shade, toilets nearby, canteen on site and more space.


RE: [Melbourne, Australia] Melbourne Tournaments in Hobby Shops ? - milkychipz - Dec. 08, 2010

Hmm, apparently there are alot of people at Queens Park. I've been there before but never on the long holidays, i'm guessing it will be a lot more active Wink And your all going down, getting several new beys including Perseus, Galaxy Pegasis, Unicorno and Giraffe. ^^ STILL more to come haha

^That does not belong here.


RE: [Melbourne, Australia] Melbourne Tournaments in Hobby Shops ? - Socks - Dec. 08, 2010

Ok so it was a 3 hour event with 150 worth of prize support, what tournament system/format was used eg. round robin, swiss?


RE: [Melbourne, Australia] Melbourne Tournaments in Hobby Shops ? - blah - Dec. 08, 2010

Block round robin.
All the players were split evenly into 3 of blocks consisting of 19 people in each block.
Each player would then battle everyone in their block and at the end, the player with the most wins and least loses in their block progresses to the final. =P


RE: [Melbourne, Australia] Melbourne Tournaments in Hobby Shops ? - Robsta - Dec. 08, 2010

Although we will probably do double elimination or have more blocks next time due to the amount of people.


RE: [Melbourne, Australia] Melbourne Tournaments in Hobby Shops ? - milkychipz - Dec. 09, 2010

Indeed. Could someone explain the process of double elimination. I'm not sure where that question goes...


RE: [Melbourne, Australia] Melbourne Tournaments in Hobby Shops ? - blah - Dec. 09, 2010

It's basically if you lose two matches in a row, you're out. =P
Plus with the square grid things with the names.


RE: [Melbourne, Australia] Melbourne Tournaments in Hobby Shops ? - milkychipz - Dec. 09, 2010

Awesome. It might be harder to win though. I like the zround Robin, but eith more blocks. Anybody else agree?


RE: [Melbourne, Australia] Melbourne Tournaments in Hobby Shops ? - blah - Dec. 09, 2010

Double elimination sounds good. ;]
It'll be wayyyy faster and you'll have to prove your skill to continue on. :L

But otherwise yeah, block round robin is okay too, more blockkkksss. (:


RE: [Melbourne, Australia] Melbourne Tournaments in Hobby Shops ? - milkychipz - Dec. 09, 2010

Never thought of it that way. I was just thinking if we had that, that little girl wouldn't survive. I have little beyspirit thats why im worried, but atleast ill have a good custom. Once I get them that'd make it 9 Top-Tier combos I own....


RE: [Melbourne, Australia] Melbourne Tournaments in Hobby Shops ? - Socks - Dec. 09, 2010

I think rounds of swiss is better than round robins, because winning players play other winning player and vice versa. It would mean that players even if they dont do well get to participate and are matched against others with the same skill level.

It would then cut to top 8 or top 16 single elimination until there is a winner.

The amount of rounds played would depend on the turnout and number of players.
