Spin Top Workshop is donating three of these, one for the winner of each division:

Woo! Thanks a lot Chris! That's very kind and I'm sure very appreciated by the community.

I think we need to formalize a way of acknowledging donors and sponsors. Probably on the official videos. I'll discuss this with the other directors.

Gracias Cris Neff

Salvador gracias por apoyar México presente

[Mermouy]

Ouupps, just realized that I'm 006 participant instead of 007, it makes my freestyle idea useless... 
Any possibility to find back my 007 number?

Ha! 
The registration number is per player, irrespective of division. That's the reason of the difference.
But I can put you as number 7 on the Open freestyle list, no problem. Done!

 
Idea rescued, thanks ta0!

By the way, Gerardo told me he will not participate  , but Salvador is planing to compete  Gus is undecided.

Hmmm, finally, some players have a chance... 

[Pepe]

007 I cant stop laughing

BTW: I have to talk to Ta0 about the icons of the forum....

===================

With this number of competitors, we cannot expect players to watch every freestyle. So I believe we need to change the judging rules.
I'm thinking that the 8 players pre-selected from each division should be true finalists instead of just suggested finalist. We could perhaps increase them to 10?
In addition, the final self judging should probably be restricted to those 8 or 10 players, and they should vote only in the division(s) where they were selected as finalists.
What do you think?

Does this mean we will still be able to if the rules change?


And one more competitor in the sports division, great!

Do you mean view all the freestyles? Of course.

I don't understand why we don't have more players in this division. You may be scaring them away, Texture! 

Two more countries registered: Argentina and Italy (Rocco!)   

Exactly 1 month left to record the videos!

I agree with this.

[CUPER]

Estoy de acuerdo con Neff ,me gustaría 10 finalistas afortunadamente tenemos problemas positivos bastantes competidores y esperemos se unan más viva mundo trompos saludos

[Turegano]

It is perfect because that way it is clearer and fairer finalists the top ten of the tops

[Texture]

4- Manuel Rodriguez (El Salvador)

El Salvador! Wow I wasn't expecting that!  I'm curious to see if he competes with wooden tops!

[ta0]

Nine Chonkakegoma players already uploaded their competition videos  I believe they are all entering the same video for Traditional and Open freestyles.
I will be contacting possible members for the review panel (judges) in the next few days.
We haven't got enough votes yet to change the judging rules, but that should be done soon.

As of right now, we have 55 contestants from 15 countries registered. I'm surprised that I'm not the only one representing Uruguay 

[the Earl of Whirl]

Good luck to all the contestants from Uruguay.

[CUPER]

Uruguay otro competidor wooo jaja saludos más sorpresas
