Coolio......lets vote (apart from me and Hovis I'm guessing....lol)

i think thats a bit long.

if nobody intends to plan one, why wait so long?

i say give peeps 1-2 weeks just to say if they are intrested in planning one, they dont need to submit all th eplans, but just say they are intrested

Only if they are interested and intend to actually make a proposal. It would be a nightmare if someone said they were interested, so we couldn't go ahead, only to later find out that they don't bother and we lose the venue.

I don't think that will happen as I have the Hotel on side, but they're not going to turn away other business waiting for months for us to decide and you coulnd't blame them for that. They only have a few weekends available because they are so flippin good

What's the general opinion peeps???

I think a two week deadline is ample for people to show their interest. Although picking up on GG's point, I think we should have a second cut-off for proposals, e.g. Oct 31st. That way if plans don't come together that proposal can be eliminated and thing's can move forward.

My 2p worth.

And a good 2p worth it was too.....

could you please PM me your address so I can send this book to MrsT? I can't find it anywhere!!, Ta x

if its made so people only have to show their interest in planning one though, that will slow it down even more.

I could say I want to arrange AR10, which then means you've all got to wait until I've done a proposal which could be 6weeks or soemthing by which time I might think ahhh F'it and change my mind, means you've been held up 6 weeks.

At least if its a proposal from people then everyone has a good idea of what they are voting for, it'll mean the location/organisors of the AR can be voted for and then they can get to sorting it out a lot sooner.

I see my point has already been covered

MrT's 2p is priceless.
18th September deadline for anyone to show intention of a proposal
23rd October deadline for proposals to be shown
with
1-31st October a poll running for dates when the event will be held. (extended a week beyond the end of the venue poll to allow people to vote whos date preference depends on venue)

Then November onwards is free for the organisers to book/arrange everything they need. eg some porta potties
