An apology from Storm North

[robtattoo]

I'd like to Apologise on behalf of Storm North, to the following teams, both DV8 & Egotronics. As you may be aware, we pulled out of Bully's Series today, meaning that these 2 teams ended up not playing the full compliment of games. I pulled the team for a variety of reasons that I will not go into here, the people who need to know why, know. We will be back next month, as usual to continue playing, but for today, I can only apologise. Thank you to the organisers, both Steve & Russ, for understanding.

Rob.

I came up to guest for a friend’s team today and disgusted with the poor organisation from those that put the event together.

Firstly how can any event run with judges who I would not let on to a rental field to look after Jo public, these guys were either dragged of the street or just to intimidated by us players. There were by no means not enough tournament marshals for this event. The event seemed for me just a way to obtain money from people who would not normally pay for a meal at a restaurant that was not to standards. I saw so many piss poor calls. If any of you purchased something you were not happy with you would either take it back to were you got it or call trading standards. If this happened to be a one off I think a big apology should be made and some sort of compensation made to all teams who played for a certain standards we all expect be it a local tourney to Millennium or nppl .Remember you pay the organisers to give you quality and standards so ensure you guys get it. There are certain organisations that control players punishments /bans etc but who do we have to rightfully complain to about tournaments like this.

However it was good to see a really old friend today and some players I have not seen for a while. Thanks to the team I came to play for today for the invitation.

i have got to disagree with you mate,
the marshalls did a spot on job, ok there werent enough, but as i understand some people let them down this morning, the ones that were there i thought were excellent, I would like to thank Bully for a good event.


Thanks to Manc Extreme for letting me play with them today.. I had a really good day. We had a good start and cracking ending but the middle part meant we only came 5th.. If you guys can stay on the boil for the whole day the next leg could be different.

Thanks again and see you at the PA.

to the mightydwarf

first of all me and my team had a top day as we always do

The marshalls did what they could with what they had, the organiser was let down by 4 marshalls who didnt turn up and he had to sort out cover at very short notice and couldnt really do any thing about it being in the middle of no ware.

people who go to bullys events will tell you that we have fun all the time and bully does go that extra mile for ever one

So i big thank you bully for another top day me and the lads had a top time

for once ive got to agree with the dwarf

most not all the marshalls were crap.and called some crazy calls ,

and to be honest this is the first time ive been to bullys tourneys and this has happened .

to the point where one person was taken out because he was going to get shot ?????
or
or trying to give sosta for a none self check area ..

[figment]

Mark ive got no problem with bullys tourneys just the crap marshalls ..

and from what an outsider said who didnt play the tourney he said the same ..

nothing to deal with there was nothing else wrong for me !!!

 

[W1llnorthernhero]

fair enough guys this might have been a one off incident ,i used to play bullies tournies years ago and i would like topoint out they used to be the best , as tournies go when a organiser has problems they should at least try and give something back to you and i the players even if it was say £10 off the entry etc. This way we all are kept happy and not felt as easy targets for our wallets.


with regard to 4 marshalls being short i would have said it seemed more like 6/7 easily and trained ones at that . All you had to do was talk to one ultimate who said most marshals had very little experiance.
this is not driected at steve's tournament but all organisers.
