Cool, thanks for posting this up mate.

I can do:

-20/21 June
-4th July - Sat Only
-25/26 July
-1/2 August

IMO i'd say the earlier the better. My pref would be for 4th July 'Qualification Day!'

There might not be a london open this year so that 1st weekend in august might be good too. But, the quicker we have it then the more time people have to sort travel. I've mentioned to Fin in a pm that we are working on a date.

Also free 27/28 June. The more I think about it I reckon defo June or early July. It's not like we need time to organise much, we might need to house some teams but that's it.

5/4 July
25/26 July

Probably ok for the rest though.

Also, we need a list of MCR teams that are actually doing this. Only play if you're planning to go using the 2/3 rule

20/21 June -
8/9 August -
15/16 August -
These are the three possible dates for most players. I have no preference. Chan please pick one of the dates and PM MCR group before putting it public. .

20/21 June. Why do I need to pm the Facebook group?

Arthur

So that it's clear and we all know. Or just post it on here.

Done, multi platform clarity. 20/21 June. Ideally sat, but can do Sunday too

Still reckon that's a bit short notice for out of towners.

Can do the other dates too, just giving my pref

Ok, so early feedback is saying June is too early which is fair enough. So let's have a re-think. I defo can't do the first 2 weekends in August, but can do July. I'm guessing it's just the following 2 teams, strangeways and flowery twats' that are even doing this and maybe a team with Neil and joe. So can everyone please double check and come back on this thread with more dates.

Need some feed back on this from all players planning to play.....

8/9 and 15/16 August clear for me to help (playing if I have a team).

Zaragoza travel (flying) seems to be Ryanair from Stanstead - would have to go for the full week if games start on the Monday. No flights on Monday - Tuesday to Tuesday return. Cheapish though.

25th/26th is the only weekend I can do in July, but any time in August is fine.

I should be fine for any Sunday in July. Remember Sheffield already has the second weekend for ABC so possible teams for quals might already have committed to that and probably best not to cause confusion, so just avoid that one. I can do first two weekends in August either day and probs Sunday's for the last 2 of August.

There needs to be clarity should there be a UK Champs before the EHBPC. Would UK Champs winners/finalists be given automatic slots and would they be above the rankings emerging from the proposed Qualifier?

chan

I doubt there will be a UK champs, and if there is then from our point of view it shouldn't have an impact on our results. We set the rules if the qualies are in MCR, however only 1 non manchester team has put there name up on the lfgss thread....

Haven't got one yet, but the earlier the better. I wouldn't worry though only 4 teams up so far
