4519dennis Posted March 2, 2020 Report Share Posted March 2, 2020 I have posted a few times to confirm continuing interest but haven't yet teamed up specifically with another group - should I review and do this? I had thought of helping @Sweet_pea first given that they are based in London so location fine for sorting exchange if successful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think you will help the remaining members of your group for starters ... but after that it doesn't matter too much ... the tickets will be sent to the lead booker of that group so it doesnt matter who the purchaser is ... but yes choose someone to go for as a secondary by all means ... and even lower because if this works out we might be going for people that we dont expect to on the day .... its a lovely surprise for people potentially Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4519dennis Posted March 2, 2020 Report Share Posted March 2, 2020 Yes I should have said that I would go for my three friends first (aka adult kids) before moving on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big D it doesnt really matter in terms of who helps who ... as long as people keep helping until that dreaded sell out message comes up ... for example someone may have quite a decent number of helpers for their group ie friends that they have accumulated to help .... the important thing is the live spreadsheet and access to it .... the numbers might help but it also guarantees nothing ... it might be that one group with no helpers manages to get in twice ....... all my helpers will know the groups that im prepared to cover on my debit card .... hope this makes sense ... the helpers are purely helpers and its their choice who they decide to help out ... they are doing us a favour by helping Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, it's getting the page to load in the first page that's the nightmare - but once you're in it does help to be quick - especially in the resale. Because it's over so quickly the time taken to enter the details can make all the difference. And there's the added bonus that you're less likely to make a mistake as you will have typed all the details in when you were calm the previous day!
