my suggestion to how to allocate the seats is to give priority to players how have played the online series

those who have played them all get first refusaul down to those who have only played once

then the remaining seats given to those who havent played the online series

this would be the fairest policy IMHO

lol wonder how many you've played iron ?

i've missed a few

The only fair way is to do it by age... youngest people get first choice IMO

It's a straightforward question though, what changed your opinion?

I for one was first to vent my frustration at this registration process - which is nothing but a joke I might add,,,

HOWEVER,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Des has "in black and white" responded to my idea of a solution and has aknowledged (sp?) this to be the ideal solution but does have its problems in the implimentation of.

I would hope that (as Des has indicated) that somewhere down the line, that suggested process of seat allocation will come into effect. Until it does, I do not see any way the APAT will not continue to upset some (if not most) of its members , but is powerless to do otherwise.

Having read over this thread many times, it is clear that they (being the APAT) have a very long way to go to get things right (my opinion I know but seems to be shared by many others) BUT it is also clear that they ARE trying to get things right, and without them, would anyone have a chance (however remote at the moment) to get a EPT/WPT/WSOP package for £75?

Apologies for the tone of my first post - although the sentiments still remain.

I can see things are changing (as previously pointed out by other people) but just not as quick as I would like - but then again, I have always been impatient.

Good luck guys,,,,, I am genuinely behind the "idea" of the APAT and am trying to help, in my own way, which I know sometimes is seen as a form of stirring - but it truely isnt.

I'm sorry you feel that the registration process  is "a joke" Paul. As I've tried to explain on countless occasions, interested parties have completely opposing views, & what suits one is completely unaceptable to others. So it's pretty sad that you deem our efforts a joke, but it is what it is I guess. 

[M3boy]

ITB, not all seem to think it was a good post m8.

Tony, I am sorry you feel that way. I will say no more on the subject on this or any other forum.

I have tried and tried to put my thoughts into words, seems I have failed yet again.

[turny]

theres another potential problem.

what happens if rookie or someone else under 21 wins the event? is the wpt package transferable? will they be offered an alternative prize? or will they lose that prize to the highest placed ovr 21yo?

[tikay]

Guys, I'm afraid that's it for the night from me. I've been on the APAT case since around mid-morning Tuesday, that's 13 hours straight, and I'm very tired. I still have questions from ifm & Karabiner to deal with, & I promised to answer every question, but they will have to wait until tomorrow. (Wednesday). I have the patience of a Saint, but it's tough to deal with peeps telling us it's a joke when you have been on the case 13 hours straight.

It's a game of poker, for recreational players. That's all.

Goodnight all.

[RED-DOG]

I think this compulsory involvement with APAT is a disgrace.

IMHO, people who are upset, annoyed or frustrated by it should be allowed to ignore it completely.
