  1. Interesting differences between your experience of the NDTL against what we got here! Is this just a one-location event or are there other events for different areas in Singapore?

  2. Yup, it was a one location main event.

    The entire tournament was held on a weekend at a theme park in Singapore.

    I guess that factors in the differences in tournament setup between a fixed event location versus a roving event (ie. NDTL Dew Tour 2009). :)

  3. Yup, it is an official Nerf Tournament, therefore just like in any sports competition, all players use the same standardized stock equipment (in this case, the new Nerf Furyfires), so that everyone can compete on an even playing field. :)
