I know the Militant Order guys, who played for ZONE last year enden up playing with 4 cos one guy wnt man down. But they still rave about the trip as a whole and you go knowing the down side. If they could mitigate the down side tho it would be great, unfortunately moving it into the mid season would likely reduce the entry significantly, as money is spent on the Mill series and related training. Its a good idea as a early season warm-up, and its in SPAIN for frick sake there must be a warm dry bit somewhere, even in Jan / Feb time !!
