Marshal Fire, SASS 10064 Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 WOW WOW WOW!!!! What amazing support for END of TRAIL! Entries came flooding in via all avenues first thing this morning, and we fear we are VERY close (if not maybe over) our shooter limit. So, we are "pausing" all registrations right now to give us some time to process entries and get a count. Further information on additional entry slots will be released as soon as we have a solid count. THANK YOU for your support, patience, and understanding.

Rev Willy Dunkum, SASS # 61027 Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Wow is right! Can't wait to see everyone! What a great effort from SASS office to process all this at once! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogmeat Dad, SASS #48563L Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Well, that will really be unfortunate for us, but I am glad they got a lot of registrations. There are a lot of folks on this side of the Mississippi that have been waiting a long time to have the World Championships closer to home.

Samuel "Doc" Eells Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 At what point will we know if we got in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogmeat Dad, SASS #48563L Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Match Day. I suspect they will be issuing official Confirmation Letters to everyone in the not too distant future. Hopefully, they will sort this all out quickly as I have Hotel reservations that will likely need to be cancelled as registration was apparently full-up before I could get the system to process our entries.

You always were Fast on the Draw! I started trying to get registered about 11:15 and could never get things to process correctly. Don't know what was up, then it was over. Too bad, we were looking forward to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geronimo Jim SASS # 21775 Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 It took me about 10 tries to figure everything out. Can't believe I am so stupid or they have such a confusing system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dogmeat Dad, SASS #48563L Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 There used to be click boxes, they are gone. It is closed until they figure out what the tally is. It would be nice if they had a Wait List option,but I suspect they were not prepared to have it fill up that fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet the THREE are thinking, "be glad when this week is over". Besides running all the credit cards and writing up phone entries, confirmations got to take some time. Then after all this cools down and the wait until March 1st for those entries in that tier, there comes the sorting out of categories. Hats off to those gals.

Average Joe Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 I was going to wait to talk with my son about going but I registered as soon as it opened up. I’m glad I didn’t wait. I’m sorry for all the people who won’t get to go. Does it usually fill up in one day? They only cut off 200 shooters and it stopped in 2 hours.

Exactly Billy, not like they contract it out to a call center. You cancel one little EOT and it opens the gates for everyone to get in for a 2021 extravaganza.

Chickahominy Charlie Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 I am BESIDE MYSELF with anger right now. At the prescribed time this morning, I logged in and attempted to register for my son and I. He goes off to college next year, so this was our last true opportunity to attend an EOT. I spent more than an hour trying to register, and all i got was error message after error message. So, I did "the sensible thing" and called. I called 7 or 8 times since trying to register online -- busy....every single time. Now, it's "Sorry, but we're full." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish EOT this year could accommodate more than 500 shooters, but I'm grateful that Misty and her team clearly worked hard to make sure there would even be an EOT.

With all the money, all the equipment I've bought, all the work we've put in over the past year -- all just so we could experience an EOT together before he goes off to school -- and have that met with an online registration system that doesn't work and a busy telephone. I'd say "not happy" or "disconcerted," but that doesn't even begin to cover it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tex Jones, SASS 2263 Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 To my knowledge, this is the first time registration was done primarily through the internet and the response was so immediate. As Marshal Fire stated above there may be a chance to add more folks once today's dust settles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
