Melbourne Summer 2012

[David Zemdegs]

I disagree with the Dad's part. They should have no such rule. They aren't competing, they aren't taking up competition time, why force them to judge.
You can disqualify a competitor.

I keep forgetting the smileys around here. I was actually only referring to me...

i really dont think magic should be replaced by BLD. or maybe just have both?

yeah that would work too, since magic and mmagic take up very little time.

 

[Daryl]

I think I can't go..

The events list will not change. If this list does not suit you I'm sure we will hold an event at another stage in the year that will suit you.

I could swap them but keep the same 5min total time limit to fit in with the schedule... Bit late this time.

So you might be going and you're saying that the organiser can't change events?

You obviously didn't catch on Tim's sarcasm. If you hadn't noticed, I live with the organiser, and as someone that is going to contribute to the organisation of this event, whether I am able to attend or not, I am going to take my usual responsibility of ensuring the event will run smoothly. This means we will do what me and Tim originally discussed, and stick to the current events list. If you think this is myself overruling Tim then you are mistaken.

If we are unable to pay online, will we have to pay any extra on the day or same price?

 

[Florian]

Can i pay at a MeetUp?

 

[Tim Major]

Can i pay at a MeetUp?

Yes, you can give me money.

 

[Florian]

And you pay it for me or you just want money?

 

[rubiksarlen]

And you pay it for me or you just want money?

Or maybe he is the one who collects the money.

 

[pappas]

Or maybe he is the one who collects the money.

I'm pretty sure it was a joke.
@TimMajor I think I might pay at a meetup too. (i use my parents paypal) Of course this is assuming that you are actually are collecting the money.

 

[TimMc]

Collecting payment
Only myself, Andrea or Josh will be collecting payment on-the-day during registration.

Payment
It's AU$5 for competitors to register online or on-the-day. It's free for RMIT students because they're effectively sponsored by RUSU ($5/each). This will go toward printing costs and future prizes.

Why pay online?
It's to help us know that you're committing to actually turning up and competing.

Early approved registrations may attract a gift, depending on sponsorship.

EDIT: Payments may be accepted at meetups if I'm there...


Tim.

 

[pappas]

haha, woops. Actually I just remembered I have basketball on that day and I will probably have homework. I won't be going to this comp.

 

[cubecraze1]

why was my registration not approved i payed on my mum's paypal and others have already been approved and i was the third to register

Edit: i'm approved now

There might have been a delay with PayPal processing the payment. I manually approve the registration and send confirmation out after PayPal sends me confirmation of payment.

In the future we may charge double the amount on-the-day payment compared to online payment. This will obviously be to encourage people to pay online and give us a better idea of who's committed to participating.

There's currently 9 competitors waiting for the registration to be approved. These registration WILL NOT be approved until they've responded by paying online or sending me an e-mail.

The idea is to simplify and automate the online registration process so that there's less administration for future organisers and there's a clearer picture of who'll be competing.

@lanyards: You'll need to bring your own if you have one. We'll get some name tags (white stickers) for this competition. There may be more lanyards if Seven Towns are happy to donate some.

Tim.
