Finalizing the iPhone app this weekend, still have some excellent giveaways from sponsors that we’ll be running contests for through Facebook and Twitter, we’ll be confirming venues in September, and should have all of our sponsors lined up and be ready to announce full details on everything by January 1st. 🙂 ---

> [@x52](#): > > Oh, you just made it seem like a 2011 thing. So you’ll do the BAC next year too? Really? How? I’m curious now. ??? BAC is going back to Stu, Nathan, & Paul for next year. We’ve decided that absorbing existing contests isn’t really a benefit and really just confuses people with regards to what we’re trying to accomplish. While we have nothing but love for the NYYL and the people behind it, we aren’t part of that contest system and don’t really want to be…so better to separate ourselves entirely and not cause confusion by overlapping events. Boston & Chicago will continue, though…mostly likely in the same venues. 🙂 ---

> [@Q](#): > > How much do I have to save up for that figurine, Steve? Not sure yet…still have to get the manufacturing timeline finalized before we can determine pricing. Other vinyl figures that are hand-painted and produced in similar quantities (40 - 50 pieces only!) run in the $65 - $100 range, though. But heads up, yo-yo players will be battling vinyl toy collectors for these. And Chris’ collectors are fast and fearsome when it comes to his limited edition toys… ---

I heard something like Stu told me that he might get it back next year, so this clears it up. But I’m glad and happy that Triple Crown of YoYo is continuing. It was really fun at BAC and you guys did a good job! So it’s cool that it’s continuing for 2012! ---

> [@maranellokid](#): > > > [@yoyokid8](#): > > > > There’s no ECC this year. Awww… ☹ ☹ ☹ > > m2 it seems all contests hate the northeast No way…we love the Northeast! But Fanueil Hall changed ownership and none of our contacts work there anymore. ☹ Chicago will be the only event this year…we’re scaling back a little because holy moly running three contests back to back is WAY too much work for only three people. So we’re scaling down a little and grouping while we tinker with the format and build up our non-yoyo sponsorships. But, in the meantime… 2012 Chicago event is July 27th & 28th. Prelims are at the contest hotel the night before, and after-party is on Saturday at Rotofugi. Full details are on the website at [http://www.triplecrownyoyo.com](http://www.triplecrownyoyo.com). Online registration and music upload will be up soon! ---
