Vtec, this sounds like fun! i learned about this on facebook but i was surprsied to see that the date clashes with the bay badminton open!
Yes, unfortunately it does clash with the Ben's tournament and I believe there's also the Smashing Jr. tournament at Smash City that same weekend also. I tried to have the organizers change the date, but they were already committed to that weekend.
yeah. quite unfortunate. as more and more tournament pops up (which is great!) there bound to be these clashes.i think we need to have a tournament registry of some sort to avoid these date clashes in the future. i guess BC can do it. everyone just need to email/PM me their date. i will let them know if there are clashes or not.
Wow Kwun, that's a really great idea. If there is a tournament registry by regions, it would be easier to plan out when to hold the tournaments. As you said, it's great there's more tournaments, but not when the dates clashes with each other.
OK Polar Bear, please tell Halim I'm playing with him in "Funky" and... ...where's the "E" Flight for us to play in?
Ok, I will "tell" Halim the Great Panda has requested him to play. lol. I think you are out of luck as Halim will be going up north as for as I know. And the "E" flight was supposed to be a secret!!!
That's the point!!! "Cash prize paid for ALL flights", if no one else enters, it's a sure thing. lol. I wouldn't say it's going to be easy money for Halim yet. Ben is hoping to get some international players to come play the event, which would be great. So with the prize money, some Canadians might show up, and hopefully some others that didn't make the Olympics.
Hi Chris, how have you been? Unfortunately, I won't be playing in this event cause I will be overseas. And the Panda doesn't like to compete. He doesn't like to show off his skills. lol. How come you always go and watch but never play in any of the tournaments?
Wooooot?! ...Oh yeah, Uber Cup goodness in Indo. You and/or Halim better hook Panda up with that Team Indo Jacket in XXXXXL. Show off what skills? First in line to the buffet? Knows the location of every Yoshinoya Beef Bowl in SoCal?
a skill is a skill no matter what it is... =P and as for the jacket, we may need to use 2 to make one for you. so the back might say chandra hidayat.. lol
Hmm, well.. ..if i play, who's gonna watch the rest of the actions??.. But...hey...say...wha...what???..Our Polar Bear will be out of the country??... Are you really going to INA to attend the TC & UC, Paul??..Going solo or with your siblings??..If so, cool, wow, wow, envy, envy you!!.. ..those names are okay, but make sure it's not Lilyana Limpele!...
Yup, I'm going to get to watch the TC and UC with the (in)famously rowdy Indonesian crowds. yea baby!! I'm going with my siblings, then on to Thailand for a week before I return to real life here. lol. Too bad you aren't going, Henry will be there too. As for Panda's jacket, if I use any of the ladies' jacket, I would need double the amount I already need. Too much work, I'm still worried about getting even one. haha.
Coool!!.. ..that's awesome, Paul!!..Wow, looks like this yr's version of the TC & UC will have quite a bit of BCers in attendance (even Lauren Todt is going). I assume it's your first time visiting INA/Jkt??.. Yeah, bummer i won't be able to make it with you guys this yr; yes, i know Henry and his wife will be traveling as well... Oh, not sure if you've seen this thread below, but feel free to sneak a peek in there.............and if you want, read all the 20+ pages of posts..and join the BC partey: http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=51964 Anyway, have one blast of a time down in Jkt, Paul....and take lots of pics of your trip & share them with us!!! *Btw, aren't we getting a bit excited about the TC & UC more than this CA Spring tourney??..hehe
