WTG Garth!!!

This should give the punters plenty of time to make their arrangements.

Not in - would like to see some more online sat's in the lead up to the Big One. 1 per week rather than 1 per month perhaps - lock out those that have already won tickets if preferred/possible.

Those $10 rebuys in venues were not enough IMO.

there has been at least ten in recent weeks in SA. that is a lot.

a weekly grand final game would be good, but i dont think it would get enough runners.

They were for 300 other players?

I won't be putting more satellites online until I am assured that all bugs are ironed out.
There are still plenty more satellites operating (in venue) right up until the Friday night.

I am not in either. I have had other things on when the qualifiers in this area & online were on. Guess I could have gone out of area but didn't. Maybe I will chase a bit harder for a ticket for the next one seeing as though it is in Melbourne again.

For something different, I agree with gmatical! I also would like to see more online qualifiers made available, hopefully the bugs get ironed out so this happens.

One of the most odd (oddest?) thing about the rebuy tourney i went to was 1st and 2nd received a ticket and $250 cash, the next 2 received tickets then 5th and 6th (i think) recieved the left over $100 (approx).

Why not make it 5 tickets and forgo the 2 x $250? (for Melbourne Satellites)

Shame the bugs prevent more online sat's - fatten your prizepool

FYI all future GF's will be capped at 450 runners.

So after seeing this one, I don't think the prize pools can actually take more fattening.
