User blog:AlthaBlade/Bloons Tower Defense 5 Tournament

What is up people of the Bloons Wiki, as you can probably tell by the title, I have decided to host a BTD5 tournament since it's been a long while since the last one and of course I won that one MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Anyway this tournament will consist of eight players so you might want to sign up quickly.

How to sign up for the tournament (IMPORTANT)
It's very simple, all you have to do is indicate that you are joining and tell me your BTD5 rank (NOT your BTD5D rank).

You must be at least rank 34 (BTD5) to participate in this tournament!

Remember that telling me your BTD5 rank is very important or else you might end up playing on a track you haven't even unlocked yet. :P

If there is anything you are unsure about, please leave a message in the comment below.
