    that is still the case, as i asked again yesterday

    no immediate plans, they are on hold, but not gone for ever.

    the idea of a couple of community events a year, around the UKPC dates, is still one that appeals, certainly

    It is probable that the February UKPC festival will start the previous weekend with an affordable low buy in Mini, too.

    Will pop the full schedule up when i get it

    That event has not been formally announced yet, that will be made known in the next week or so, so best wait until then before making that decision. The buy-in has not been made known yet, either. 

    However, I think it unlikely that Sky Poker will run satellites for it.

    Let's wait until that event is announced though, then it can be properly addressed.

    Hi Gordon,

    Yikes!

    I'm afraid I have no idea why that is, & I'm struggling to even guess what the reason may be.
     
    I've sent a polite note upstairs to see if they can shed some light on it.

    If I get a reply, I'll let you know.

    Gordon (& others).

    I had a reply within 60 seconds.
     
    The UKPC Satellites for today will appear, as if by a miracle, very shortly.

    Apologies.

    You had better win one now, right?

    Today's UKPC Satellites are now starting to populate the Lobby.

    They don't all appear instantly, but there are 7 there now, & maybe more to follow shortly.

    They are all in the Lobby now I think, & the first one starts in 10 minutes. It currently has 2 runners, it needs 3 to run, & 5 to meet the Guarantee. Might be some value.

    All the other usual daily (except when not daily) UKPC Sats are now in the lobby.
