First Clickfest 2009
« on: January 06, 2009, 20:22:21 PM »
Now then guys, having no regionals to qualify from it may be necessary to buy in to the Walslall event. I will of course have a go via the satellites, but just in case....Apparently a link appears on the home page, and we follow the link and away we go. These seats go very quickly and I understand speed is of the essence. Therefore would it be possible to open the "gateway" in order that players can add their credit card details before the date, as I believe if you have bought in previously then your details are retained, therefore giving those people a few seconds critical advantage. What do you think Des?

Details are not retained AFIK. I"ve always had to type them in from scratch.

Indeed, nothing is retained. Level playing field for all.

In fact, I"d be seriously unhappy if they were retained - a security risk surely ?

Nothing retained.  Fastest fingers wins.

Are there any restrictions on who is allowed to attempt to qualify / buy-in?

The only restriction I"m aware of is that players must be of amateur status.
