Campaign Cup..., ....a ringers opinion.... Options

[neil]

Right, CC is getting slated on P8 at the moment for just about everything!! I know a lot of Ringers worked at the event and most of us have a lot of experience in the set up, staffing and running of a major tournament. Between us we have vendors, spectators, refs, players and staff.

I think it would be nice to get honest opinions from all of us about the event, but in order to make your post credible, we are going to adopt the "shit sandwich" approach. Basically, if you can only post negative points and no positives obviously you were not paying attention!

We all know how much work goes into every aspect of setting up an international event and no one wants to discredit the effort made by any of the campaign staff. With that in mind, I would ask the moderators to keep an eye on this thread and delete any posts that are inappropriate.

I'll set the ball rolling then....

POSITIVE:
An excellent choice of vendors in the trade village, all offering good deals.
From a players point of view, the location of facilities and fields in relation to the players area was good.

NEGATIVE:
The event was again let down by the lack of security for equipment. Secure players areas and parking areas for players need to be provided.
For the first time in about seven years, i went to CC to spectate. I would have seen more of the event if i had stayed at home and asked tango to text me random photos all day....

As i have already said, this is not a mud slinging match, it's about constructive comments that hopefully the organisers are big enough to take on board and be congratulated on what they did well, and at the same time reflect on what could be done better next year.

The postives-

huggiest Campaign yet- got caught in a Russ/Colin/Joey/Shuv hugstravaganza at one point

The negatives-

It ended and I couldn't take them all home with me

Apparently there was some paintball and stuff as well?
