I'm having some problems accessing the site and accessing the customer service number for my domain provider. Maybe we hit our bandwidth limit today? All I can say is keep trying folks.

Hmmm... Service provider is now closed. I've purchased a bandwidth upgrade for GB9 but still cannot get to the site. Sorry for the difficulties folks but it looks like I can do no more until tomorrow morning.
Thanks for your patience.
The response today has been phenominal by the way so thanks very much everyone for showing your support. This is going to be one heck of a tour!

Yeah, sorry about that, I should've warned you, Pro9 is getting more and more hits, last month we had a record 2.7 million hits and of course this month with Daryl's win we'll get over 3 million easy. It seems only yesterday that I was announcing a record 1 million hits in a single month - I've "upped" the Pro9 bandwidth allowance to 30Gb per month now, and we'll need even more than that this month! It's all good news really!

Unfortunately it looks like the site will be down until Monday morning. I'm not sure it's just GB9 because I can't access my own personal site either or the providers support site.
-------------------------------
Wow! 77 Applications in day 1! And that's with the website down for the latter part of the day.
I always wondered whether we would get the required number of entries, especially for the Pro section but those worries have been well and truly quashed now. The tour committee will definitely be sitting to try and work out who gets in the pro and who doesn't.
Great that the UK wants this new tour. Thanks to everyone for supporting it.

Just to confirm....
Acceptance onto tour: GB9BT will confirm receipt of this application and provide details of how to pay the initial installment by email. Acceptance onto the tour will only be confirmed on receipt of the appropriate first payment. If applications to join the tour exceed the number of places available, entries will be accepted on a first pay first accepted basis.
We've had over 100 applications to date. Some time this week in between our day jobs we will be processing them all then sending you all an invoice with details of how to pay. Please be patient folks as it's a very busy time for us right now.

If you don't have an application form completed in the next couple of days you'll probably miss out  [ This message was edited by: Riggers on 2007-11-20 09:06 ]
