MYSTERY SPT MANCHESTER REGISTRATION

Hi @Tikay10

I have a question re registration for the MYSTERY SPT.

I'm assuming it is safer if we get there early on Fri/Sat to avoid being an alternate?

So Friday starts at 4pm. I was thinking of going to the Casino and registering at about 2pm, before checking in to the hotel, would I be able to register at 2pm?

That way, I can register, secure my seat, leave and then come back before 4pm.

I guess the question I am asking is, in a rather convoluted way, is what time does registration open on the Fri/Sat? (Saturday starting at 2pm I believe)

Many thanks for your assistance

    Hi Graham,

    Normally, the registration desk at 235 Manchester does not open until around an hour before start time, so 3pm ish on the Friday & 1pm ish on the Saturday.

    sorry for been annoying, this only applies if I win another seat and a personal situation i cant go into is still pending.

    But if both events happen I would arrive at the casino after 6pm to use a seat on friday evening, would their be a chance I dont even get to use that seat due to a long wait or would that be very unlikely say I arrived at 6pm I know you cant promise or be sure of anything but how long would I likely have to wait for?

    From passed experience, I think you'd get a seat OK, but may need to wait a few hours, approx 3 at a guess, but @Tikay10 might know better.

    If you arrived at around 6pm on the Friday, I'd be surprised if you had to wait very long, if at all.

    No promises or guarantees, obviously, but that's my view.

    thanks for that hopefully this wont be relevant. its looking like I will only have one seat anyway.

    would be nice to see high numbers but I think this year will have less players. Who know though unpredictable etc.
