WOTS THE POINT !!! - MEGA GRIPE

Lee Mulligan, the Welsh Champion from Season 1 missed out on the Scottish Championship clickfest.
He lives in Southampton (well did, he"s now in Germany, but that"s irrelevant for this story).
He sorted his accommodation in Edinburgh, got a flight up, and was outside the door at 9am on the Saturday and sure enough got on the reserve list and played that day.
Another player I know well (he was the one who told me about APAT in the first place), didn"t get into the Welsh Championship via the clickfest. So he drove over from Essex to Cardiff, got to the casino early doors (he was second on the reserve list), and got to play.
Now I know not everyone is willing/able to do this, but it"s a valid option as a last resort if you really MUST play.
Phil_Crozier:
I read on another post that the reserve list is headed by "fastest losers" from the clickfest as someone who just missed out suggested it and APAT agreed. So i"d check before travelling and sitting on the casino doorstep to be turned away.

will people who got through to payment screen and don"t get seats be automatically put on the reserve list in the order they missed out?
Des?

That is a very good idea. Yes.

Definetly didn"t dream it, that"s a quote from the clickfest post.
kinboshi:
That might be the case Phil, but that will be for a reserve list before the day - that would make a lot of sense, and I hope that"s what"s happening.
However, there will still be people dropping out on the day, and a new reserve list will be created for the day itself (and the previous reserve list scrapped). With the reserve list you mentioned Phil, that means that there will probably be far fewer dropping out on the day itself though, making it harder to get in just by turning up.

???
I"m not sure whether there will be a difference between people who can confirm they can"t make it before hand (and take reserves from the "fastest losers") and people who don"t make it on the day (and take reserves from the "doorsteppers")
I"m also not clear the effect of people not having to be at their seats will make. Will people have to confirm they can make it, but will be late? (otherwise their seat goes to a reserve)
Or will there stack go out and get blinded away? (in which case, where do the reserves enter the equation) ?
???
I"m confused now - what"s going on?
