Yes - given the proximity then I may not be going to the Challenge, but you can give it to Hammy and I will get it from him.

Dave email to Panos Papadopoulos (papadoc_gr@yahoo.com). He is in charge of the tournament and he could help you.

I still haven't got a reply from Panos regarding my registration to the tournament 6 days ago. If I waited for advice about hotels then I may as well ask somebody on the streets of Athens because we will probably be there before we get anything back!

Of course we could all just go and look at the masses of information on the official website...

The Barcelona club is meant to send several people all using Catalan Company armies but I'll believe it when I see it. I won't be attending.

Julian
As expected, the initial excitment has worn off and they've chickened out. No Spanish players will be attending as far as I know.

Quite close now and I'm surprised to see only 12 FoG entries (and under 20 in all) :( :(

Alas, as I am currently facing redundancy I can't aford to go, and I'm sure the economic climate isn't great for many, however, I'd have expected more.

Hopefully a late rush, the Greek guys deserve support.

Have me and Dave entered yet?

I blame Dave if we didn't, me if we did.

Check the registered players section of the website (but I think the answer is yes you have).

Edit - yes you have, and KMS has entered twice ...

If you don't tell him that means you get free entry Nik.

I believe several Italians are going... so maybe the list is somewhat out of date.

Though it's fair to note that there are no Greeks among the registered players....

They're on strike. They won't register until after that.

There is nobody to update the website - they have all been sacked.
