Lesson learned this year, my group is now 6 as opposed to 2.

What lesson was that if you don't mind me asking? 

My group has fallen from 8 to 2 due to pregnancy, new babies and break ups so just the 2 of us trying for 2

I've a similar thing, although I 'organised' our groups so we have fewer newbies haha!

That's what's freaking me out. I have no control or contact with these people! Some of them havent even put their reg #'s in yet which leaves us with the odd number of 7. I cannot handle this kind of last minute shenanigans.

Don’t I’ve been chasing people non stop to upload deets! Also worried about a couple of partners I don’t know as well who have been totally silent in the chat, made sure they were in group 2!

With groups this large what’s your success percentage and how involved is everyone at resale day?

Success percentage last year for the first main sale was around 60%, and we got another 30% ish on resale day. 
 

I’m very strict and mean when it comes to my group! If you don’t participate and help then that’s it, you’re out, never again. I give every new member a lecture about what is expected of them and what happens if you take advantage. ?

10 groups for the main sale, that might decrease if the two groups wanting coach tickets are successful. Last year we were like 240 people.... needless to say the success rate wasn't 100%...

I'm sorry... 240 people?!

but how do you know ? thats the issue with large groups (not sure what yours is ) the larger the group the more potential for people to say f it once they are done .. as they clearly won't know each other

I'm involved with a 31 person, 6 squad syndicate for coaches alone....

What could go wrong?

Well that’s one way of adding a few pages to this thread

Few more of my lot have woken from their slumber which takes us to 24 with a couple more yet to confirm.

Got a group of 10 now, a 6 and a 4, all trying for General Tickets on Sunday.

Trying for a different group of 6 this evening.

Fingers crossed for everyone.

[Badlands]

Our group of 30 has just turned to 31 which has bollocksed things up considerably!

Exactly,. Then there are those that are in 2 groups but don't let on. Once they have their own they are either going to say f it, or concentrate on one group. I would like to believe this is not true of efest people but in case I am wearing rose tinted glasses  I'm also hoping karma will prevail over these people.

I can assure you that there are efesters who are in two ticket buying syndicates. So as you say, which syndicate are they helping once they have their group sorted?

That's happened to a a few people on Efests and myself once but luckily still got our group tickets. 

Pick a group and stick with it.

Exactly! eFestivals may have a lot of members, but that also means we talk and people get found out.

Just the 2 in our group, wife and me! Hope it doesn't damage chances!
