You need an photo ID, so we can check its the same name as in the Mermaidpoker account.

Far from that you dont need to remember your nick or such... as long as you remembe your name and in case there are two with exact same name i hope you know your home adress. :eek: but am awear that this can be a bit much

Nice one guys for making this happen.

Next question:
Will the rugby world cup quater final games be shown during the tourny?

Do you have tellys?

semibluff

eventually i registered - used paysafe card - to the guy asking earlier, its in the spar shop in the buttercraine shopping centre
as you enter newry, go str8 down the hill, u cant miss the buttercraine on the left. its in sterling though, so you;l have to do a bit of jigging with the value you want to deposit etc, but aint that hard eventually

last minute is the best fun isnt it!!!

slightly OT - but might as well ask it here: But will it be easy enough to get a taxi out of the RDS at 2/2:30 on saturday morning, since first it is a saturday nite - impossible most of the time and secondly The Police are playing in Croke Park so there will be an extra 50K ppl in dublin and the place will be very busy.... i was going to drive over but in case i get knocked out early then since i live beside Croke Park - i'll never find a parking spot and traffic will be terrible....

Won't be a problem, loads of cabs pass by on their way back into down.

Not exactly ... it was 802 in regular.
So it is 923 so far.

Still impressive and the 1.000 is possible.

Well i'll say hello if i see you. Not sure if you know me but we played briefly at pokerevents citywest '06.

Actually an idea would be to look at the seating sheet carfax should post here on friday and then print out this list and bingo.

Your math is wrong as the 843 already included 41 late registered people.
BTW if the 76 french count separately it would be 802 + 134 +76 = 1.012


Shadow

ZZR1100

If the french dont its 802 + 149 (now)= 951
hope they make the 1k
either way well done steve. there was a lot ( including myself ) who doubted the reg online thing would get the numbers

carfax

Ok a friend of mine has an excell sheet with a list that looks something like this;

T1 S1
T1 S2
T1 S3

All the way down to

T100 S1
T100 S2

And so on.... There are 1,000 cells in the list all in order.

How might my friend go about randomising the *seat draw* I mean list?

Is it possible through excell?

5starpool

It is very possible. The way I would do it is to put the T1 S1 in column A, the 1000 names on a sheet in column B, and in column C I would enter the formula =rand()

This would generate a random 6 digit number between 0 and 1. Copy this down to the end of your player list, and then sort column B and C only and order by column C (just highlight those two columns and sort the selection. This will put the players in a totally random order.

That make sense?

How do you account for members of teams being on the same table?

One point to note, when you do the sort (or anything in excel) it regenerates the random numbers, so it it might look like it hasn't been sorted. It has been though. To avoid any confusion just copy the random numbers and paste their values and sort on the pasted values.

I was going to say that, but figured it would only complicate the issue. Even though it regenerates, it does still sort the list randomly which is the important thing, even if the random column doesn't look sorted, the players will be.

Yeah..as soon as column C generates the random numbers, highlight Column C, right click, copy, right click, paste special, values and this overwrites th Randon function

I don't think it is, but it should be easily doable to list the seat numbers beside the teams using a vlookup function in excel, and it wouldn't take long to eyeball it.
