Look at it this way...

Player A is a Coventry local who can"t attend any other event for a number of reasons.

He fancies his chances of satelliting in and finishes just one place short to someone who isn"t going to attend.

He"s now in the position of having been "done" out of a cheap seat by someone who won"t even be going....does that seem fair?

Bloody Coventry players should pay better imo ;D

Also, if Carl hadn"t entered the Sat would not have made enough for the extra seat anyway. (hypothetically of course)  ;)

Only pulling your leg Paulie :)

On the subject though; and a serious suggestion.

Why don"t APAT set the resell seats at £85, the extra £2.50 going to APAT as commission? Seems fair to me.

Never thought about it until now, but feel that it might make more sense to have the cheaper one first.... might get more runners, then perhaps some of those come back on the following nights to play again.  As it stands, people may still go for the cheaper one, and swerve the expensive ones.... but if they miss out in the cheaper one, they have no further opportunity.

yip, that"s my point, would get more runners and more of them would be likely to play at least the next most expensive sat...well, i would be...and if i""ve played 2 i"d probably play the third just to try and save something on the entry...being scottish and therefore inherently miserable, avoiding the expensive ones unless i have to play them is the default mode :-)
seriously though, makes no sense to me why you"d have the dear one first, there must be some kind of logic to it but i don"t understand it....
Not that it matters but i"m fairly sure this isn"t the way it"s always been...

MintTrav:
Cheapest first.

i"ll worry about it for the next time  :D but my preference is try the 20. if no joy just buy in
