On a tangent..

I reckon this one will be booked up by Friday....

If it is then the people who booked in better be all on for it or I will not be happy.

I think we may have opened the bookings too early. It would have been better to have some publicity first.

But its done now so we can't go back

We plugged it mightily at CR amongst the Germans and also at the HTday . I reckon we'll fill the spaces piece of cheese.

Re open day , I would suggest just mention we are going there on an open day , leave it at that . TBH you want the time ot have a good look around rather than have all our matey players pestering you .

Oh I have no doubt of that!! I'd just have liked to ensure that everyone had a chance to book in... the idea that it may have booked up by the end of the week does concern me. For instance if a very loyal player is on holiday and misses their chance (etc)

But anyway... its done now...

Send some PMs perhaps .

TBH we can have a reserve list / make exceptions or particular mates anyway .
As I always say , I've yet to meet a site owner who will turn paying punters away , that includes us as well :wink:

I suspect the Allies will drag their feet a little.

You'll get loads saying they're going to book up then they'll wait until the month before....betcha.

If we haven't already, can we email the forum userlist to inform them about the game.

There are people who haven't booked and who I haven't seen online for a while but would like to see at this game, Digga for example.

A nudge reminder might be just the ticket.

I've sent a press release to AirsoftNews.EU and posted on ASUCK - I'll do Arnies when I have a mo.

We can't do mass emails from this server due to anti-spam measures (but it will be an option when I migrate this site & forum to the new server) so you would have to do a selective copy and paste job on those you want to email.

What I suggest we do is open up a few extra places in a month or so...

Assuming that is that we have both sides booked up by then.

Andy is still surprised we don't want up to 60 players including us as he'd be fine with that.

Aye but i spoke to Jay about this tonight,

it can take 60 players but then its a blat fest as you get firefights on every corner as its packed, he was hoping for more stealth

We discussed it being amax of

20 players, three organisers and a couple of invited players (who may have missed th e boat) per side

Well... we'll just have to see how many people moan about missing the boat.

But I have to agree... just don't want any good friends to miss it!

Nothing to stop us doing a 'wotan two' if it goes swimmingly in the new year is there?

Having had the full guided tour of the site, id much rather have people miss it, than get stuck in endless mexican standoffs for the day, and go home pissed off.

at the moment, including organisers, it will stand at 46. Add in a couple of invites, thats 50.

Out of interest Rich, who are you worried might miss th eboat and not get to play, most our hardcore regs seem booke din but if theres anyone you think might miss it you want there we can

a) free up one or two 'guest places'

b) Email themn now so they know to book in

Well if there are no 'good friends' we can put a name to its not worth worrying about is it?

I thought you might have had someone in mind and were being tactful you see.
