Neatly put Sharplee, and so wasn"t Dan"s explanation. Albeit, based on what Dan said this means even if demand continues to grow we are at capacity. It will be interesting to see how/if APAT decide to expand over the next few years.
Hope organizers are getting some juice to cover their personal expenses for the contribution to all this, and happy to toss my quid in a hat if passed around. I would also volunteer time, travel and the such like if I thought I could contribute. I am not sure what a numptey like me could offer, fetch pints for people?
The only added suggestion I would have to this are more satellites? How about this idea, Live Satellite Events hosted in every Casino listed on the tour prior to each national, all the sponsors of APAT? What I mean is every casino on "tour" list has a game prior to the event to give away a seat(s), so you have a Fair Live Satellite system scattered about the UK? They wouldn"t have to be free/no fee would they so casinos would do it? Not sure what the policies are, etc
Just an idea
Then more poeple in the event earned their way to the Championship title, rather than fastest fingered their way in Plus people whom are better at live verses online, have same advantage. It is just a suggestion and I know too late this year to organize...
I really loved DTD when I was there for Blonde Event, but I have riders so anything too far away from venue will be out. I am leaning towads piss up the night before (with you guys). I will talk to riders about them catching alternative lift to Walsall if they don"t want to go a day earlier. I am pretty sure two of us are driving from Bristol and in teh end I want to be there very early to get on the magic list... Thanks for the sugsgestions, will research them all. Hotel already paid for! (laughs)
