EUDC 2008 Tallinn registration update |

Monday, 03 March 2008 |
Dear all,
Below you will find a summary of last week's questions and answers
concerning registration to EUDC 2008 Tallinn. I apologise for the small
delay, as it is already Monday. This information is also posted on our
website http://www.eudc2008.eu <http://www.eudc2008.eu/> (FAQ's
section), our Facebook group and the British debate list.
By this time next week most of you will hopefully have successfully
completed Phase 1 of the registration process and are able to sleep
without nightmares about team caps and the n-1 rule.
Here we go:
*Q: We would like to send additional judges to the tournament beyond the
n-1 rule. During which phase do we register them and how does it work in
general?*
*A: *Registering additional judges is no different from the general
process of registration, they can be registered in Phase 1 and Phase 2.
There is no institutional cap for adjudicators, but to keep the
registration quick and simple, only up to 4 judges can be registered
together with the teams. Every subsequent adjudicator from one
institution will have to register as an independent judge. Please also
see my previous post here <http://www.eudc2008.eu/feedsbase.php?feed=7>
(Tournament -> FAQs).
*Q: How much does it cost to stay an extra day in the hotel?
A: * If you are planning to arrive before 22nd June and/or leave after
28th June, you will have to pay for extra night(s) at the hotel. One
extra night at Reval Hotel Olümpia costs 37EUR per person. You can book
the extra night(s) during Phase 3 of registration. Of course you can
stay at another hostel/hotel, which you may be able find for a better
price, but in that case please make your own reservations beforehand.
*Q: When must the participation fee have been paid?*
*A: *The deadline for payments is dependent on when do you register.
Teams and judges registered during Phase 1 will have to pay the
participation fee by 23rd March, teams and judges registered during
Phase 2 will have to pay the fee by 13th April. These deadlines are
crucial, because your registration will not be confirmed until our
receipt of the payment or payment confirmation. Please keep in mind that
failure to make payment by due date will lead to annulment of your
registration, and given the tight team cap, you may not receive a second
chance. Please also see registration information here
<http://www.eudc2008.eu/index.php?content=8&menuid=7> for further details.
*Q: Does 12:00 GMT mean 12:00 at lunchtime?*
*A: *Yes, registration begins on 10th March at 12:00 GMT lunchtime (noon).
*Important note: *In my last post it was said that the registration form
contains a dropdown list of institutions for you to choose from. The
list we have compiled is a very thorough one, including all institutions
that have participated in EUDC 2006 and 2007, so you will most probably
find your institution there. If you should discover that your
institution is not on the list, then firstly - check once again (also
try other possible ways of calling
your institution, e.g Tartu University / University of Tartu). If still
no luck, then you can specify your institution in the blank space
provided on the form for this purpose. Just to make it clear - there is
no use in trying to use this method to evade the team cap!

You will be hearing from me again at least once before 10th March.
