I agree with everyone. Let"s all be nice again.

Seriously, I agree with everyone. Des, Steve, Gordon. The £5 fee only becomes a problem for me when it"s released before a full buy-in option. I"m happy to pay a long time in advance and I would resent the only option available costing me an extra fiver when I"m happy for APAT to have the full whack 3 months prior to buy in.

This really. I read some of the other thread and even comprised a response one evening but lost it somehow before posting.

I"d much prefer to be able to fully register for an event I intend on playing - preferably via a single APAT site with the ability to unregister (up to a specified time in advance to meet APATs Admin needs) thus guaranteeing my seat without the "Reserve a Seat" Function or Extra cost.

Just seems distasteful from a players perspective - I remember some reasoned arguments of why, but ultimately we are still players and its an extra cost (regardless of how small) especially for those travelling.

I don"t mind the Reserve a SEAT function for those that don"t want to Reg online. But both options should be available at same point in time.

This sums up my thoughts

cuzza23:
This is the 1st time I"ve used the "reserve a seat" option and I"d happily use it again, the main reason being i work  monday to friday 8-5 and the holding tank opened at 12 noon today , making it impossible for me to buyin direct, if it wasn"t for the reserve a seat option I wouldn"t be playing this tourney

Gup9y:
no offence meant Des but my description was meant to generatde a reaction

shug:
I`ve used it three times now. The earlier I can get a seat, the earlier I can book a flight and hotels, so I end up saving money by getting a cheaper rate for booking far in advance. (eg Paulie`s tip on aer lingus tax only flights, thank you)
I would prefer to buy in with the full amount as far in advance as possible but the £5 booking fee does what I need it to do. After all it only equates to a pint of Guinness in Larry Murphy`s.
