What? This is an outrage! :wink:

All the best with this, Mark. I'll be sad to miss it as it's one of the best events on the circuit.

Should we expect to see our favourite teams from previous years - Swim Team, Special Tactics, Kings and Leon, DTW, Team Scotland etc. etc.? What's the score people?

Great to hear the positive responses guys! Would be great to see a couple of new teams there too, alongside the veterans!

Bren - no worries mate, just needed to firm up some details, speaking of which...

I've had to change the date back by one weekend to get into the venue (15-16 Dec now), hope this doesn't mess with people's ability to make it.

BOOO The date change means i am out.

So where does this leave Gazza's Tears?

Has the date change all been a ploy to destroy the Geordies?

Does this mean someone else might win a UK team tourney?

Capt Stan - shortest lived Captain in team tournament history... ;-)

No that's a pity. I wonder as well - do people thing a tournament the last weekend before Christmas could be a bit awkward? Would this affect attendance?

Is 1st/2nd December ruled out? That actually might be a good one because it doesn't clash with Brass Bowl (as 8/9 Dec did - I understand ruling out some flamebowl stalwarts including Lycos) and is a good distance from Crimbo. Just a thought.

I cant make the new date, there is a co-workers wedding so all the time off has been taken. Also found out Matt cant make it that weekend so the Booty Batterers will have to give it a miss this time :(

We've lost our newest Geordie captain, it's not ideal being so close to Christmas. Jeepers!

Deffo can't make 15/16. :( 1/2 would be good though! Or even early Jan. But I guess that would depend on whether Stick is doing Poo again. New baby might cramp things I guess....

This seems to be a very unpopular change...

If the date was 1st - 2nd December would that suit those that can't make 15th - 16th? Looking at comments so far that's Stan, Shanie, Wightlord, Pete.

Would 1st - 2nd be a worse date for some people?

Post up your preference by the end of the week and if there's a strong consensus to move to 1st - 2nd then I'll do that. At the end of the day I'd like as many people who want to be there to have the chance, as possible.
