At this point in time it's definitely going to be on the 15th of May.
Also, the reason why it's on a Sunday is because it's just easier. The number one reason is that I'm unreliable on a Saturday, and I'm hosting the tournament. But added to that, many people have different commitments on Saturdays, and Sundays are generally people's free days.
Public transport may be an issue, but that's just something everyone has to deal with. I'm assuming a large number of people will be travelling by car, but for those who happen to only be able to travel via public transport, you guys (including myself) will just have to make other plans.
While I do understand your reasoning, I think it may be a bit of a stretch to say that Sundays are 'just eaiser'. But, either way, if this is the day it is, then this is the day it is!
I'll try to be there, we'll have to see, I didn't get to join in the last one, but I am super excited that we have another, larger, one happening!

Can we use our own laptops?

Love the tourneys that are going in our little isolated place in the world. I will definitely participate if there's any more events after July (when I return).

Unfortunately no. Whilst I understand you may feel uncomfortable on a desktop, and I totally understand being in a comfortable environment is key to playing well, it will just be too much of a hassle getting your internet connection sorted out.
Also, if I permit you to, a lot of people will want to bring their own, and then more complications arises.

this is on my birthday, i shall wish my win away!

Important Notice:
The time has changed. A lot of people were mentioning how it was going to be very hard for them being relatively early on a Sunday seeing as public transport comes pretty late on Sunday's.
The tournament will now start at 10AM, sign-ups will commence at 9:30AM.
Thanks!

Bumping, the thing had disappeared off the face of TL
|
Was just about to bump this, guys, don't forget to let everyone know, friends, clan mates, etc.
The more turnout, the higher possibility more frequent future tournaments will run.

Would we be allowed to use laptops then?
Also, with the time changed to 10am, do you think that you have enough time for the entire tournament (9 group games + 16-man finals)?

Just went and walked past the venue on my lunch break, you guys might want to put the name of the place in the OP as there aren't a lot of street numbers showing. Took me a while to find it.

Good idea. Added name plus a link to their website under location.
@ Azzur
I'm going to have to say no, regardless of which internet connection you use.
Also, guys, don't worry about the time issues, if we do happen to go over time the tournament will still run.

Important Announcement:
To avoid complications that could almost certainly arise, I have decided to change the group stage format to 8 groups of 5 players. With the top two advancing through. Check the OP.
Also, the top two players of last tournament have been seeded.
Sanic is seeded at #1 Timmes is seeded at #2
That's all.
