5 Months of waiting ?!?!? Is this not a little too long?

To plan a weekend in Nottingham??
5 months is a little extreme.
Planning yes, but shelling out for a poker comp not starting for 5 months - am i the only one who thinks this is just wrong?

We have a lot of people coming in from all over Europe for this event and we want to ensure that everyone has ample time to book flights, hotels, etc. Also, we want to ensure we sell out every event. This is the one event in our calendar that we sell early.

Considering that APAT events sell out in 30 seconds, I would consider it good planning to have such a big event on sale so early. In terms of the money.
You sort of contradict yourself,

APAT events a played by people who dont have massive bankrolls and decide that they would liek to travel around the country next weekend. Have you tried booking a hotel close to DTD lately when there is a decent event on. Its always sold out, so APAT have given the opportunity to players to be able to sort out accomodation at the best price.
I take it what you are trying to say is that you have an objection to APAT having the money 5 months in advance?
I would have no problem with it (could i make it) to pay, and if it means I know i have a seat.

And it would appear a couple of hundred others agree with you. ;D

Fair points made.

I play the £300 at DTD every month, and have only failed to secure hotel accomodation once, and thats because I left it until 4am AFTER day one.
I usually book the night before with no problem at all - Nottingham has plenty of hotels ;)
APAT - thanks for the reply, didnt realise so many would travel from overseas - but as they do, I can see your reasons.
