And finally a question:
Next year there aint gonna be MS in Portugal. The MS its going to be in Madrid, Spain.
Under the wing of Estratego Spain, but without the experience and knowledge of Estratego Portugal.
Is this better for the MS ?
PB its growing beautifully in Spain, and geographically its easier to play in Spain then in Portugal, but I wonder about risking the quality of the event in a time that it should be working to regain the top position that had not so long ago. [/B]

You are joking right??

With their experience most of the f#@k ups from last weekend should not have happened. They have got away with it for the last few years, good weather and forgiving teams have allowed this.

It had been raining for 2 weeks and no provisions were made at all. 4 portaloos for 91 teams?? Thats just rank bad management.

1 small food concession?? Same critiscisms about that too.

No attempt at regaining time by running 4 feilds in the semis.

And this is just the stuff we picked up on from over here.

So yes its a shame that Portugal loses the leg - but hopefully Estratego Spain will make a better hash of it and listen to these critiscisms.

Mark : Estratego Portugal = Pedro, Estratego Spain = Pedro

Methinks it needs a complete change of venue, promoter and board

Then what that guy is saying is crap then.

I'm taking what he said at face value -ie they are separate companies.

Naive?? Me?? You bet.

In that case - after that performance, a new promoter is required. It's harsh that the weather will cloud many peoples opinion but it does sound like he has run the tournament on the bread line for so long, and so close to the edge that it wouldnt take much to screw it up.

I dunno - whats it all coming to eh? PSP/NPPL/X-Ball/Millennium/X-Ball Europe.

Show me a marker & give me a tournament to play in that runs on time and provides facilities comensurate with the fees we all pay. Isnt that what we all want??

Is it too hard to deliver?? We dont even mind if someone makes a buck out of it!!!

Peace

its not about that tho, our team have been made to pay it (I assume) and its about helping them fund it..... its happened there is nothing that can be done about it now, so why not try and recoup and make sure it doesnt happen again? and of course we would rather spend it on hookers, but for 25quid knowing the quality of hooker I would get I would rather have the shirt

 

[acsik]

Hmmm I bow to your expertise in hooker bang for the buck ratios!!!


But the question is why did you guys paid the dough whe there was a statement of 3000Eur entry and NO more?

?

Recently there was a tournament in Madrid organized by Estratego-Spain, and Pedro was in Portugal at the Iberian Championship.

So he organized two events for the same day in direct competition ?
Based on this it was impossible for me to know that both Estrategos are the same person, Pedro.
Sorry for my ignorance Mark.

Back to the Mega MS
“They have got away with it for the last few years, good weather and forgiving teams have allowed this”

That’s clearly unfair.
Last year we had the best leg and two years ago the third.
I have been present in all the Megas and them Mega MS, and never heard that many people saying bad things about it, but im nobody and my expectations are low.

Know I shouldn’t take others as references but everyone as forgotten serious problems in other countries and come hard on this one at their (in my opinion) first mistake. That’s unfair.

If you want to attack the MS, feel free to do it, but please attack the right guys.

Last year Mega was the best leg???

Hardly - I'd say Campaign and Toulouse were the best two, Sweden then Portugal then Germany (in fact the surface in Germany was one of the bets to play on) then Amsterdam.

Two years ago - third best?? Nope again - Toulouse then Campaign then Sweden (who can forget the sports centre with accomodation on site, swimming pool, sauna etc).

Yes it is harsh to flame Mega - maybe - by the sounds of it this tournament would give 'piss poor' a bad name.

Give Pedro another chance?? I personally would - but he'd have to wake up and give players (and sponsors) a better deal. 4 Portaloos is a flippin insult.

I hope he gets another go (just my opinion) and that he doesnt make the same mistakes.

Just a tought....

....since we are the ones paying for Milleneum
....since we are the ones playing the Milleneum
....since we are the ones experiencing the problems first hand.
....since we are smart ppl


Why dont we demand to have one or two persons DELEGATED into the milleneum board? THEN we can have DIRECT influence and DIRECT firsthand info what we can expect!! (coughjerseyscough)


Or someone should convince WDP to delegate someone from Pure Promotions...

Opinions?
