- Start date
This is a hard one - it's either going to be 22 June at about 8.30pm or 23 June at 12.45pm.
After consulting the entrails (otherwise known as tossing a coin), I've decided to go for Thursday 22 June at 8.37pm.

Charity will be very disappointed, Mike, and we wouldn't want that, would we?
Seems Liz has the right of it unless you take deposits but in my defense I chose a date before you did.

Sorry sweetie, not dissing you in any way but I've been there & done that when it comes to organising paintball events.mikey601 said:Shamefull liz
Baca is right about the deposits. I would say on average 30% of teams that don't pay a deposit just don't show up at tournaments and I would estimate that the number of no-shows of individual players is likely to be at least a quarter of that for punters, who have a no-show rate of around 25% if no deposit is paid maybe higher.
The fact that I've put my estimated possible cancellation time pretty close to the event is partly down to the fact that I know that you'll do your very best to get this off the ground. As it's on a Saturday there's a very good chance I would want to come up & watch or give a hand with anything, so I really wouldn't WANT it to be cancelled
Thats all cool hun, its defo going ahead already booked it all with Dave.
Will be collecting deposits as soon as i have the payment details
