Ed

Please could you confirm the format of these weekends for me. It appears that there will be a single 2 hour show each day. Will there be a chance for some decent battles outside the shows and will it be possible to take a meaningful part in the competition if I can only make it for one day?

Im very interested in the concept of another feather comp, but am very concerned that it looks as if it could be necessary to present at the venues from 11am Saturday to 4pm Sunday for very little return in the way of arena time.

Thanks

Tim Jones

Apologies for my mistake above. Ed has just corrected me, its 2x2 hour shows a day

I think it may be time for me to consider a pair of glasses

Just to let people know - tickets have now gone on sale for these events, plus it looks like were going to be full of bots, so if theres anyone else deliberating, Id apply sooner rather than later.

Is anyone going up past Bristol on the way to Cambridge?

Ewan, I think your closest fellow competitor is Gordon with Stiff Breeze, it might be worth trying to get hold of him if youre looking for a lift.
