We have only 5 this year in the Netherlands...

 

[Erik]

registered of course!

 

[Ron]

The Dutch didn't have enough comps, so they added another one.

I would like to turn this one around: The xxx had enough comps, so they did not add another one.
To put it differently, I am surprised so few people take the initiative. We could grow much faster.

[Ton]

Well the statement was
Why so few people take the initiative to organize a competition, even in the Netherlands it is only me and Ron....

How much space do you need? :confused:

It is free parking, normally in front of the building there is room for 10 cars, else you have to look for a spot.

And Erik (with my help/guidance) for Twents Open!

I have a different method for organising tournaments:
a) You individually ask people to stay at your house
b) You repeat a) untill you have had > 12 cubers stay at your house
c) You invite them again later all at once
d) You announce it in advance and call it the Lentedans 24/7 Open
e) You decide if 24/7 is the date, or the length of the tournament

So.......
If anyone wants to participate in the Lentedans 24/7 Open, you can get an invitation by staying at my place for the "The Hague Open 2008". No need to let me know in advance, unless you want the complimentary bed/breakfast/dinner

Since 24/7 is my birthday i'm now going to work some extra hours to get enough money to come to "The Hague Open 2008" in order to get an invitation for the "Lentedans 24/7 Open"
