August Lans - Date Decisions

[gemini]

Ladies and Gentlemen.

We currently run our August events from Thursday to Sunday whereas all the other events run from Friday to Monday.

We've been having a chat, and honestly, we can't remember why this is. It was probably something to do with school holidays, or providing options to some people who book holidays so a Thurs Fri booking might be easier. Whatever the reason was, we can't remember.

So we come to you asking if this is a good thing, bad thing or if you are completely indifferent.

The poll is open for 3 weeks (Until the Thursday after the LAN) so there's no rush to decide.

Discussion, thoughts ?

the reason for this was so people were taking less time off work and it was easier for the community to get holidays etc if they had to take them. whether this is still the case i dont know

Easiest to take a Holiday all day Friday and go to work on Monday.

I actually cant get time off for this lan, which means i will be turning up at some point on the friday instead of the thursday, personally a friday-monday lan is easier to get time off.

That is just my opinion on this matter of course.

wasnt it a trial run to see if it worked better?

It was a trial one year but it kind of stuck as it appears to work, however we thought we'd check to see what the current opinion was
