Alright folk! It’s that time again: Brawlmaster Steve here with exciting news about Toys on Fire’s third Bakugan Tournament! Is everyone excited? Well I am too! Before I get into the details, I should let everyone know that this event is being held at our store (Toys on Fire) in Ottawa. Sorry to everyone from the online community, but we can’t host tournaments outside of Ottawa. I know you all want to have a tournament as well, but you’ll have to ask your local toy stores to run one.
Alright, so here’s the lowdown on the tournament:
When: Saturday November 8th, 2008 2PM – 4PM
Registration: As usual, you will have to go to our store to register. This time around, since the tournament will not be held outside, we can only take 16 participants. Sorry, but space limitations aren’t very fun for anyone. Registration will cost $3, and this will help to offset the cost of running the event and prizes.
Prizes: 1st: $10 Gift Certificate
2nd: $5 Gift Certificate
3rd: $5 Gift Certificate
This time around, the prizes are going to be more humble, but still this tournament should be a very enjoyable time for all involved.
Rules: Okay, so the rules are the same as the last tournaments:
- 3 Bakugan and cards per player, Also we won’t be allowing the use of paper “Ability” cards for this tournament.
- You may switch your Bakugan between rounds but not during rounds.
- The use of shooters will be allowed; however shooters must shoot from off the arena!
- The tournament will be run in a Round Robin Style. The top players from each table will play a second round. The top player from each table will play a final match to determine who wins.
- The use of shooters will be allowed; however shooters must shoot from off the arena!
Hope to see you all out there, brawlin’ it up with your favorite Bakugan!

Ssssh, I’m hiding in the back. For some reason, we ordered more Killer Bunnies, and they’ve been very …rowdy. I heard some even talking about me, making threats on my life! I can’t work like this, so please come buy one. I’ll do the handling, but just get them out of store! Oh no, here they come!
GET BACK YOU ANIMALS!!

Dear Steve Jackson,
Your games are now fully in stock at our fine establishment. We have the original Munchkin, all of expansions for the original Munchkin, and all of the spin-off Munchkin games. We even have the Munchkin bobble-head! Our store has never been more full of little people.
Steve, your dedication to the parody of Dungeons & Dragons, H.P. Lovecraft, Vampires, Super-Heroes, Space Wars, and the like has brought much joy to us all.
Sincerely,
The nerds in the back-room of Toys on Fire.

Toys on Fire is giving our wonderful customers an oppourtunity to win a Nintendo Wii just in time for Christmas. We will be giving away ballots to win the Wii with every $25 you spend, or with every Ottawa 67′s ticket you buy from us. Be the hero this year and put a Wii under the tree! (I’m a poet, and I wasn’t even aware that I was one.)
We’ll be drawing the winning ballot on December 21st, 2008.
Unfortunately, this contest is only open to the retail store costumers. My apologies to the people of the internet.
Chris “The Man-Bear” R.
