    Seems from my reading it you can get acceptance by both means i.e magazine or e-zine and same with refusal.

    No worries. Nah wouldn't be interested in watching. I'll settle for something a bit more local instead. Thinking about Limerick at the moment as an alternative.

    Forgot about this, have no plans to do marathon for a while; however, if I came out in the ballot, it would be fate telling me to go. ;-) Let's waste loads of time checking emails for the inevitable rejection mail.
