I had almost all slips available when I got in... just selected 55... but I dont see confirmation of where I know what I actually got.... The email just says slip preference that was selected...

I have a feeling that this event will be overbookd.... wait for it!

I tried almost every dock. Kept getting a red bar at the top saying selection not available. Even though they all showed as available.

Tell them to try spots in the high 90's.

But I agree. This was a complete joke.

I think i signed up for 99 or 100 too since in kept repeatedly kicking me out, whoever thought 100 people trying to pick 60 spots at the same time was going to work.... it needs to just assigne slips first come first assigned.

I tried putting 1 charter in each spot just to fly through the form. It was apparently smarter then that.

They need to make a realtime dock listing... once you make your selection to start the process it removes the slip from the database... its really not that hard of a deal... then your slip is locked and it gives you a window to finish registration....

Did you guys have to pick a slip and give boat information for both the captain and first mate?

I asked that question 4,762 times, and everybody said that's how it would work.

And yes, I had to give for both.

I have stayed out of the registration process, owning a retail store I just don't want to have people mad at me. I feel bad for our board members that are handling this. This was to be a easy and a awesome set up. Seems not sadly. If you did not get a number I would suggest to call Lori ASAP if you have any questions. 231-582-9009.

^^^This is well said and reflects BT. I believe it will all get ironed out with the help of the people behind the scenes.

I dont think anybody is upset with you or pete or wrink or lori.. I think a lot of people want to beat eventbrite severly about the head and shoulders like a red headed step child though.....
