Hi people is it possible to have a game in newcastle this season, also regarding the team game think the people returning on sunday or last 50/60 should be the points winners,not half the field , to have the game won so early takes away a lot of the excitement in the closing stages and keeps people hanging around for longer.
keep up the good work,stay true no rebuys no re-entries

My minor thoughts:

On the "raising the buy in" in all honesty the cost of travel, hotels, food etc etc makes more difference to me than the actual buy in price. That's why I didn't travel to Edinburgh this year, so changing the buy in to £110 wouldn't make too much difference to me.

I wonder though if once it gets to £110 (or more) that it might get a bit too serious and take some of the fun out of APAT's?

On button antes I say YES!


My major thought:

On stacks yes I think 20k starting stack is a must. 15k seems like a short stack these days as every local £30 comp I play these days has 20k or more as a starting stack.

What I would prefer though is we keep all the current levels (the structure is fantastic imo) but reduce the clock on day 1.

I have always felt that we don't play enough levels on day 1 so I would prefer as a suggestion.

  4 x 30 minutes
  8 x 40 minutes

This would mean only an extra 35 mins of total playing time but we would have advanced the clock 3 levels. (Day two clock as now 45 mins)

This way we'd play 12 levels day 1 and start day 2 at 1000/2000/300 instead of starting day 2 at 500/1000/100

I feel this would make up for the extra chips and thin the field a bit so day 2 is not so long.

You could still have 3 breaks if we did it as;

  4 x 30 minutes (Break)

  3 x 40 minutes (Break)

  3 x 40 minutes (Break)

  2 x 40 minutes (End of day)  
 

Anyway my 2p's worth. I'm sure I'll still turn up whatever is decided!

Totally agree with this but it affects me the other way around. I have to pay travel and accommodation costs for every event, that far outweighs to buy-in, not just Edinburgh. A rise in the buy-in has the least effect in my taking part. It was very noticeable that many regulars were not in Dublin or Edinburgh. That suggests it's travel and accommodation not buy-in that determines participation.
