ECOAP Online Series

[PHIL_TC]

Can we enter a Chezger team as a single player if IP addresses is a problem? pass the laptop round 36 people.

Sorry 35.. forgot Stu was coming x

Careful..... move it to an alternative date that someone then can"t make, you"ll end up with complaints from those who can"t make the revised date.  Been there, done that..... it"s frustrating to say the least.

But it"s not someone Steve it"s a shed-load of people playing an event which has been diarised for months on a date specifically selected to avoid an APAT clash for a crowd that is effectively an APAT offshoot.

IP or general socialblity issues may lead to a loss of >30 players ?

I appreciate the Main Event clashes with the ChezGer weekend,

Apologies for the clash, almost inevitable it will clash with something in the busy UK Poker Calendar.

Appreciate the acknowledgement Leigh. Can the ME not be moved to Sunday?

JP - understand the sentiment, however I once asked a similar question and was castigated for it.....  http://www.apat.com/forum/index.php?topic=8189.msg136201#msg136201

The thought of 36 laptops at Ger"s is an interesting one, and if that does happen, I think the webcam should be mandatory!

Going forward, the Online Series will run the week after a live event, we"re just playing a bit of catch up here with the launch of the online cardroom, hence the Irish and ECOAP back to back.

For some reason, when I saw the Euro Online announced, I assumed the Irish one was dropped and deleted it from my calendar, so I"m glad you posted that Leigh.

Aye, Irish Online is next weekend. Satellites for that run every day from tomorrow. See this thread for full details: http://www.apat.com/forum/index.php?topic=11874.0

It is unfortunate that the date clashes with chezger. I"m pretty sure 30+ of us won"t be able to play on the same IP address. However it would be wrong to change the date of the ME as it would now be unfair on those that can"t make revised dates.

Life is too short to worry about this and I am more grateful that APAT has helped spawn the Chezger game, which will be epic.

We"ve just had a chat about it, and this seems a sensible compromise, and also a chance to see how playing an APAT Main Event on what is usually a busy night for poker will impact on numbers.

I"m just going to update the OP.

Disappointed   If I can"t change my work schedule, I won"t now be able to play. Will be the first online APAT I"ve missed for a while.

Thoughts on making it a 6pm start with 60 or 90 minutes late reg ?

Is Matt able to give some sort of indication of expected running time? Obviously we haven"t played a ME on the new site yet....
