APAT Online Series - Australian Open
RioRodent:
Out in 29th... no respect for my all-in!!
Don"t they know who I am??? 8)
Good luck to those left in.
Bodddders:
Bit disappointed with the turn-out tonight, 145 runners.
I know i"ve mentioned before that maybe saturdays are not ideal.
Is it the buy-ins?
It seems that APAT is growing all the time, yet the numbers for the online series are staying about the same and even falling. (not sure as have not kept a note of previous numbers)
Anyone have any views on this?

I think you"d expect it to fall at the end of the series with a number of people who were playing to win the league now realising they can"t, and the people who have played and failed to go deep time and time again getting disillusioned with it.
I"m pretty sure the same thing would happen however you arranged a league type event and that it happens with others.

Jon is on the money, and in addition we did not send a newsletter out prior to the event to remind the base as a whole. We do this occasionally to test responses etc.
Bodddders:
I take your point Jon that some people who cant win the league may have given up, but tonight we had quite a few first timers (mostly Aussies I think). We have over 300 members on the forum, so less than 50% of people with an interest in APAT played tonight.
