Members want more satellites, we give them more satellites.
13 players register. The details are all there, but if they are not supported, there"s not a lot I can do about it.
We won"t be able to continue running satellites for a minority of players, well certainly not with a guarantee.

Maybe it would have been double, if the 1b players were actually allowed to register? Also maybe it would have been more if it were not the first summer weekend of the year. Also remember, there will be 2 less players each week.

Too risk-averse, these poker players. Leigh has said there is no risk, so he would be in a pretty awkward spot if it wasn"t true. Don"t cancel them yet Leigh, there might be some delayed take-up - I know a few others who might have played but were travelling back from another event.

another reason turnout may have been low is youcan"t play something if you don"t know it"s on...yesterday, i checked this page http://www.apat.com/forum/index.php?topic=5828.0 to see if any apat tourneys last night, none mentioned, also logged in to see if there were any apat tourneys last night and when didn"t see any before scottish pro holding tank, closed betfair down...one of the other problems you had i think (and this is a guess) is that the tourney doesn"t appear in the "all" list and this would be why i didn"t see it (i only filter out completed tourneys so def not that)... i don"t look at the satellite tab as i assume they"re all included in the all tab but perhaps not...
will definitely give some of these sats a go now that i know they"re on...would agree with others that perhaps sunday isn"t the best day for it, midweek would be better i think, particularly with the summer weather...
would also disagree that most people can multi-table...well, maybe they can have two tables up but a lot of people will make mistakes due to having the two tourneys running and not being used to the additional concentration required so might as well just play the one to increase their chances...
might be an idea to update that page above with the new info as well...or should i have been looking somewhere else?
also out of curiosity, i"m sure we used to get emails regularly advising of such things...did they stop when you moved to betfair ? (in fact, don"t remember getting many once you moved to bluesquare)...

1b players were able to register but they had to un-register first. Some were afraid of doing this in case they could not re-register if unsuccessful in the sat. I un-registered and re-registered. Leigh has assured us that there is a 150 player cap on the holding tank so no probs there.
Leigh has also said that he will spam us with details of other sats via facebook invites.
As far as summer nights are concerned we"ve had both of them.
So it all looks well for the next one.
As for making mistakes with 2 tables open - I can do that very well with just 1.
