If we have 3 days, can we not just run it as a 3 day comp? Change it to £60+£10 pp (so the casino gets the juice needed to make it viable) and have

Day 1 (7pm-1am no breaks)
Day 2 as norm
Day 3 as norm?

surely all players would need to get same game time, maybe whoever left from day 1a joins 1b at a later stage on saturday, maybe after dinner break or something

AMRN:
Kudos to APAT for trying move forward and break new ground again........ love the idea of expanding this event to accommodate more teams....... BUT, please don"t split teams across sessions as proposed. I agree with all of the reasons posted already.

Kronsdat:
I"m with Carl on this one.  If the objective is to involve more teams (fair enough since the event is heavily over-subscribed) then reducing teams to 6 players per team makes more sense to me than having an additional day and two flights.

KarmaDope:
The problem APAT will have if reducing to 6 players per team will be that even more teams will apply. This event is the one APAT event that could theoretically get >300 runners easily (apart from the Worlds obv) and as such, should be held in a venue that can hold that capacity.

My simple suggestion would be to hold the event as part of a festival - APAT always hold their festivals in the larger capacity venues so more teams would get in.

I definitely dont like the idea of splitting it into two day 1s for the reasons already posted.

There may well be more applications, not sure this is a massive problem though? The target is to get more teams into the event and therefore more new players, reducing the number to six would accomplish this.

What festival could it be attached too? The only one in the UK is WCOAP usually?
