An incredible achievement, but one which was never in doubt.
The worst thing anyone can say to Rob Yong is "you can't".

Will you be allowing alternates on the 2 starting days?
Surely it would be nice to push the record as much as possible assuming you achieve it of course.
Huge congrats so far whatever happens.
I honestly didn't think it was possible but I was clearly very wrong. Well done.
I was wondering this as well, but I suspect that it'll be hard pushed to finish before stupid-o-clock on Monday morning as it is, with the deep and long structure and 900 players. Any bigger must require a third day, surely. Total players now 835 (as of 1:52pm, going up by 1 every 2 or 3 mins at the mo). 848 was the target set by EPT I believe? I'm about 3 miles from center of Nottingham, do you think I'll hear Rob whooping from here?  |

We can't seat alternates as players have to buy in online and registration closes when the cap is hit. |

Based on current stats there are at least 500 to 1000 players who are going to miss out so if we have seats become available we could sell them very quickly . I am sure over the next week support will be inundated with players wanting to go on a waiting list in case of drop outs but let's be honest who is going to want to not be part of this amazing event ? |

I meant once the cap is hit the reg doesn't close for good? It reopens to the next on the list?
