  • could you please put this in the tourney thread, a lot of people already have train tickets for 9 something, so no sure to get there in time.
    change the starting time two days before the tourney, fail

    rik rik rik eaaasyy

    matt did say 10am registering but no worries dude it'll take ages to get everything sorted so as long as you're there before 11 you're good dude.

    no worries

  • It is an **11AM registration. **Games to start between 11:30 and 12:00.

    Oxford did finish around 7 but they had a few very long games towards the end that weren't timed. Also, it's much lighter in the evenings now than it was.

    I did my sums (a few times....) and it all checks out!

  • Okay, so, I have kindly been informed by a band that I play with that we are playing for a Fete on Saturday, this means I'll have to leave about 12.15ish and return at 3ish which is a real bum, would someone be able to cover for that time?

    and what time are we going to meet in the morning to set up?

    =)

    dont worry there will be plenty help at hand

    meet in the morning...930am?

    bring umbrellas

  • can we go for 10?

    cos Harv needs to set up the stall and then come down,
    also (Harv kindly raised this point earlier today, Power.
    for the urn, either a generator or a gas hob and a kettle...

    thoughts?

    my thoughts are there is no power on site, ergo no urn.

    gas hob...don't bother dude. people will be drinking beer anyway. lets just provide lots of cake!

  • matt, just had a little thought. does double elimination work with 20 teams?

    and have you had a chance to knock up that bracket yet? i've one day left to print...

  • ok it does work, but it's a bit more complicated than standard double elimination...

    matt, peruse this and knock us up a bracket, if not i'll try get in tonight to work something up on cad.

  • BOGEY! Sorry I haven't got back to you! I went and bought some big white card sheets and drew the brackets out with my bare hands and ruler. They look slamming.

    Sorry again for not talking to you about it sooner! I hope the cakes are going good!

  • not long now boys im getting all moist

  • no worries matt, you've done a good job on those boards!!

    itching, just itching, for tomorrow!!!

  • Well done everyone . You were all brilliant . Syd Barretts mum's house was on the row where i parked my van by the tennis courts. I like to imagine it was her taking the cat for a walk whilst the tournament was on ( anyone else see that ,or was i tripping man ?)
    thanx to :

    Eddie you did a brilliant job on the trophy , apologies, i'm a cunt
    Will supplied everything and played fearlessly
    Rick Ambulance generously fixed bikes and supplied all the t shirts
    Matt was smooth as silk cut military precision
    Oliver ,Bogey and Barney your cakes were sublime
    Stacy made me laugh like only he can
    Hayden can rollerskate halfpipes too
    Lee played like a demon possessed then provided the sideshow entitled "watch me break charge forks"
    Angelo gave us so much security
    Greg gave a splendid liquid display
    Rollergirls for looking like Stacys evening entertainment
    The old man with a flat cap
    Devon for shepherding our house guests
    the sky for not raining
    etc

    I love you all ........( now rush out the room sobbing )

  • i have to apologize as well Harvey, never again. My selfishness gets out of hand sometimes.

    Thanks for a great day everybody! ;)

  • It's like one big love in. I am glad everyone is friends again. Is Polo on tomorrow?
