Projectors and Laptops: Hayden will bring a laptop and a projector. We need two projectors for timing. Hayden has one projector lead, we need another lead. Bogey will bring his laptop for the format side of things. We need an internet connection to publish results, ask John H for his 'dongle'?
Everything looks amazing and this is the first weekend I'm back. Really looking forward to it.
The above is the only thing that slightly concerns me. If for any reason the one person providing internets can't make it, we're in hot water again.
Anyone that has an iPhone can set up Internet Tethering, I'm not 100% but I'd guess you just have to go into your phone shop or call them and pay a little extra for that month as a bolt on. Someone could at least look into it. Failing that, most companies sell PAYG dongles, I have no idea how much they are but again someone could do five minutes of Googling.
However, would it also not be worth having a backup plan in case it's a stormy or just generally poor signal day and the Internet cuts out? In such a case, Challonge is unusable. Does Hardcourt Podium run offline? Are there any other options?
I'm not trying to be difficult, just suggestions to eliminate all possibilities of a repeat of last time around.
