S8 Online Schedule Discussion Thread

[Fatcatstu]

A lot of people works shifts which includes weekends so having 2 nights ( lunacy )

...and a lot of people don"t.

It"s accepted that APAT can"t meet everyone"s particular requirements they just try to adapt to feedback and act for the benefit of the majority of players.

Does this mean that some players lose out?...Yep, but at least APAT does listen.

A recent quote from someone who understands.

I work shifts and sometimes of a weekend I am not home until 9pm. If I draw up my shift pattern on here could you work around it...?
I also work weekend on weekend off and sometimes the schedule as first released is ideal for me. So could we keep it as it is without any tinkering...?

No, I didn"t think so.... Nevermind..

I look at what the schedule is and I work around that. It is good that you listen to us and make adjustments to suit but one good idea accepted by most is sometimes a bummer for others.

Yes i do understand

but having your own opinon as everyone else is able to goes against APAT
don"t think so, just my 2pence worth like everone else

FWIW i see where he of little hair is coming from on this one.

Surely it would be better to work for a solution for the people who CANT play 2 nights (as they work) rather than the people who CAN play whenever (whether they CHOSE to is another issue)

I believe this is what Gary was getting at?

Anyway, it has all been put on the same night now anyway hasnt it?

We haven"t actually nailed the details for this down yet... But, I anticipate it being teams of 8 - the same teams that play the live event PLUS any new teams that want to enter...

I"ll be posting a Last (Last) Chance way to qualify for the Team Championships in but a few minutes... Watch this space!.

I"m guessing it"s in a queue with the WCOAP schedule and APAT All Stars announcements

Not sure if anyone is aware, but myself and Des both have full time jobs outside of APAT. I worked a whopping 99 hours last week in fact! Absolutely knackered. This does unfortunately mean some announcements are delayed, as there simply isn"t enough hours in the day to finalise/sort them.

We know this mate (although 99hrs - are you mad!)

I feel confident in saying that the posts above were just banter - nobody should be getting upset at lack of announcements, although it can be mildly frustrating, especially for people who have to plan weeks in advance because of their work commitments, we know you guys do the best you can for us.
