v24.5 is no longer pre-pay only.

Greetings.
We like to try new things every now and then. Some of these things work out brilliantly, like the introduction of Starcraft II competitions and ongoing improvements to our Internet access system. Other things don't work out so well. One transition we had thought would work out better would be moving to a pre-pay only system.
We found that there's still a percentage of people out there who don't like the hassle-free merits of pre-paying. We'd like to know why this is - so maybe we can do this better in the future or perhaps we always need to offer a pay-on-the-day system.
Our next event (and our September event) will have both pre-pay and pay-at-the-door options as we've done in the past. |

v24.5 update!

Hey guys,
Respawn 24.5 is two weeks away. So here's a bit of an update.
For this event we're scaling down a bit to give ourselves a bit of a breather given the close proximity to our September dates. We haven't done a point five for a number of years. We've had plenty of demand for them; we just haven't had the excuse until now.
Prepaid only - this is a PREPAY ONLY event. Let us know if this is a huge issue for you and why - but for now, we'd like to keep it this way. It just makes things simpler.
Seat bookings are open for 24.5 - See this forum thread.
Competitions!
Starcraft II Call of Duty 4 Counter-Strike: Source Team Fortress 2 Flatout 2
We're hoping to run a Tribes Ascend competition if our Internet works out as we'd hope.
We have a much smaller crowd so expect a few surprises
Door prizes are as yet unconfirmed - we're working on something - stay tuned.
See you guys there! |

Respawn v24.5

Those diligently watching Facebook and the side bar here will have noticed we have just posted up a new event - Respawn v24.5!
Due to the location change (the Odeon hall - you might have noticed it tucked away at the end of the driveway outside our usual location, Union Hall), this will be a much smaller event (only 160 players) and prepay only.
More information this way! |
