The comp is over subscribed at present anyway so it will still be a maximum field.

But I will be there Ian! 
Shaggy's point is valid and if it wasn't for the fact the Hotshots team have always supported the comps I've been involved in running I wouldn't even be entertaining the idea of moving this one. I also think that the comp without the last years runner up, the current Winter and Summer champions  etc etc would be devalued and at the end of the day it is through no fault of their own that the find themselves unable to attend.
Chances are there won't be a suitable date available anyway but there is no harm in looking. |

But equally it's not the 59 other players faults that the HotShots are attending an event that has had it's date moved . . Also there are two previous Open Winners that are not able to attend at present because of the format yet that's just the way it is . .
I agree that it's unfortunate that the Hot Shots would miss out by this recent date change but does that warrant the Open being moved everytime a small number of people can't attend? |

If they had all paid fair enough. They haven't though. A different date might actually produce more entries . . . |

Given all the kerfuffle with the Champion of Champions, it would not suprise me if the Eagles were invited to the C of C if their are enough team drop outs. Personally I wouldnt expected it to change on our behalf, especially if the numbers to run the comp still stack up.

Surely Hannah should be the person spoken to about a change of date before even speaking about it on the website?
And what happens if you change the date and you get fewer entries? Do you move the date again?
The only thing that should matter is having the comp filled.
It wasn't that long ago people were trying to get the Presentation Night changed to cater for a handful of people who couldn't make it. . . |

I don't think you should read into the paid entries too much, there is still 3 months till the comp.
You'll be fully paid.

I think you'll find I've said earlier in this thread that I will speak to Hannah. I've responded to the issue as it was raised.
There's no point in talking to anybody till I checked the calendar which I have now done given all the interest.
Allowing for my own commitments and working round the pool calendar the next available date would be the 15th March. My view is that we've already started to taking money for this and to be holding on to it that long is ridiculous. While it's unfortunate that the Hotshots will miss out the original date should stand.
I'll put on another comp later in the year.

How many of those who have paid so far are going to CofC? |

Sean, the probability of the EPA changing their dates against is highly likely so this is all lucky to end up with group hugs all round!
