Title: Missing Medals - Consolidated Request Thread
Post by: APAT on July 11, 2010, 00:40:06 AM
Apologies for delays with APAT medals but I"m pleased to say the S4 order has fully landed with out manufacturer now.
Medals will be despatched directly to you from our manufacturer so to ensure we have your must up to date address, can you PM your name, address and event name and finishing position as follows:-
The medals for this season were sent end of last week, according to the supplier.
If no one has received them by Wednesday, then I"ll chase up again. They have all the address details, so shouldn"t be any further hold up.

When my medal finally arrives I am going to take off my shirt and run round the garden twirling it over my head in celebration! Or I might just do a Shearer type one arm aloft celebration, I think a back flip is beyond me! ;) What are you going to do when yours arrives?

2 bronze 1 box ..............so still need 1 more bronze and a gold please
Last season and before"s medals are being handled by Des, so they will be coming soon. Hence I"m not expecting our team gold in this first batch, though I might be lucky in getting a 1:1 medal to box ratio.
I thought the whole problem in the first place was with the boxes not the medals? So to get less boxes than medals after all this time means we may as well have been given the medals without the boxes at the time we won them?

I can"t recall and I can"t check right now as my LIVE Bronze is in a box somewhere but seem to recall that it came in a box with a small engraved "plaque" inside with the comp name & position.
Dunno about the "online" ones...but they are worth less anyway...aren"t they? ;D

Hi Gents,
I still haven"t received a gold one for the English on-line last September. Do you think there is a chance I might see one soon? I"ve emailed Des four times about it.
Thanks,
Paul.

you were lunky it was silver ;)
Was it engraved? The engraving they do is amazing, isn"t it Jon? Must be just for live events, though I wouldn"t go as far as Paulie in saying that online ones are worthless.

Worthless would definitely be an exaggeration

Tony,
I"ll respond politely, not quite sure why I should, but that"s just me. ;)
As far as I am aware, none of the medals APAT has given out in the last four seasons have been engraved with individual names and tournaments. I"m sorry if that disappoints you, but it is an easy thing for you to get sorted for a very minimal cost should you wish to do so.
Apologies about being short of a box for your Season 4 medals, as I recall when I got sent more than one medal in season 2 (Blatant brag post), I also only got one box. Didn"t think much about it at the time, but I will see if I can get some sapre boxes with us at DTD to solve the problem.
I believe your Season 3 medals will follow shortly as you are on the list that Des has posted.

Leigh, thanks for the reply, I note my name on the list and wait with baited breath.
The problem is with unanswered e-mails. I have sent 5 or 6 over the last 2 years and until you got involved they were just unanswered/unread.
That makes people think that APAT don"t give a sh1t and since the idea of APAT was to provide amateur poker players with a more professional setup to join then it degrades all the work that was done at the start.
Thanks again, now that you are involved it looks like things are starting to happen.

Mike,
For the first three years I have managed the development and administration of APAT single handedly in my own spare time, with Richard joining me for event weekends and reporting. That is everything from the commercial deals, tour scheduling, casino negotiations, database management, newsletters, awards, website, graphics, promotion and I managed to get a lot of medals despatched also!
This year; apart from planning the season and doing the deals, I have not been able to get anywhere near that level of involvement due to my main work and other committments and I appointed Tighty to manage the live part of APAT and Leigh to manage the online part. Both great additions to more formal roles with APAT.
However I take exception to your comments about how we care for our members as S4 features the largest schedule of live and online events ever and by far and away the largest value package for members, with rake free online events, GUKPT and APAT pro tournaments in their dozens and £40k in sponsorship packages. Plus live streaming, a magazine an Online League etc etc.
So apologies that you haven"t received your medal in that length of time - it isn"t good enough I accept that, but please don"t broad brush the organisation because of your poor experience. Because ultimately if we can"t administer the online medals easily and we get kicked too often over them, then they will be pulled for S5.
Regards,
Des.

Not been on here or playing poker in a long while due to other commitments but I was just wondering if there"s still any medals due to go out? I"ve not received my gold for the WCOAP Online Omaha last year and my mate Gordon Casey was asking about his gold for the 6-Max WCOAP Online last year too. Can"t wait to get back playing some more live games next year!
