You want to keep it to "established" members though - someone with 2 posts, joined up day before, shouldn't get in at the expense of someone with 2000 posts who's been a member 2 years....

As much as it pains me to say that Brians right (again) , but the above suggestion seems the fairest way of choosing a team.

You could create a thread for anyone attending who wants to be considered for the team - elect a PL Team Manager (they don't need to play him/herself just attending is suffice) who could then co-ordinate it on the day.

I'm sure by 1am some of the early fallers will be to rat-arsed to play - so it won't hurt to have willing reserves on hand if this occurs.

I agree with Brian First come first served. Although it really is nowt to do with me. That's never stopped me having an iopinion before though

Not neccesarily first out on the day, maybe first to qualify. When you qualify stick your name on the thread, the top 8 on that thread who can be arsed playing on the day, play. Easy. Actually I can't take any credit at all for that idea, but it makes a huge amount of sense.

Suggestion(s) from me.

Order the PL entrants by number of posts on 10th April. Top 8 who are sober/awake/can be arsed to play, make the PL team.

or

Set up a private MTT on 10th or 11th April for PL qualifiers and the finish order in that MTT is the order of preference for the interforum challenge.

how about a live MTT, top 8 get seats, can play it on the friday before......

having an online sat is pointless IMO as live play is totally different

Hi guys,

Pleased you're up for the challenge guys. Wasn't intending to cause more problems on the team selection front but i'm sure the other forums will have similar issues.

Available tables and dealers do mean that we can expand it much further this time but if all goes well then we'll do what we can for future events.

It's clearly not overly serious and bragging rights will propbably be more important than the cash prize.

I'd suggest that all those still present and standing at 12.30am in the casino have a draw (or game of spoof!!) but of course entirly up to you guys.

My one bit of advise would be to avoid the table which Ted is dealing for!!!

Joe

How about Plers who dont qualify but are going to rail the rest of the players, theres normally 7 or 8? Or the 4 people who bubble in each of the Pl Virgin festival Private Torneys?
