Discussion / Taxis in Hinckley?
« on: April 19, 2013, 00:31:25 »
Okay, so this is pretty simple- I need a Taxi at around 6AM from the hotel to the train station (all in Hinckley) and does anyone know if they run that early in such a small town?

Off-Topic / Stupid exams!
« on: March 19, 2013, 11:49:03 »
Grr >:c Last year I had to miss the last day of the convention because the exam team had to put exams nearly a month after the last lecture, and they refused to move it.

This year... it's at the beginning of the convention which on the face of it doesn't seem so bad... until my early arrival comes into play. So... great... the exams were supposed to match the same day we have the lectures on, and not peek outside of May- and the exam that's the problem now should have been on a Tuesday, all snuggled up a good couple of days from trouble.

In retrospect, I shouldn't have touched early arrival even if the usual system of exam-on-same-day-as-lecture meant that I should have been in the clear.
But still- WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
>-< So now I have to either have wasted £50 in booking an early room... or waste even more money going to Confuzzled on the early day, then getting up really early the next day (5AM early) and chugging down there on a train... just to come back up again.

I'll never know why the examination team doesn't put up a 'template' for the exams, so that maybe a few dates can be moved around before it goes 'solid'. As it is, the exam dates come out and BAM, that's it. Another convention spoiled by the tyranny of examinations.

I've always preferred essays anyway.

Discussion / Payment- amount outstanding
« on: September 06, 2012, 22:52:36 »
I'm not sure if this is just google checkouts needing extra moneys for... using moneys but payment information is telling me that the amount outstanding is: "£ -13.12" Which (assuming the minus sign is important) is a problem as my registration won't be complete until that goes away. I paid for the entire thing before, and I'm pretty sure the surcharge was included in the overall price I was paying.
Am I just supposed to wait for the team to get through it, or is this an error? If it wasn't for the time-limit on how soon you have to pay your fee I'd probably just sit back and wait for something to happen but I've only got a day and I'm a little concerned as a result.

Dealers Den & Art Auction / Number of auction submissions
« on: April 21, 2012, 21:20:06 »
Hello,
        I was wondering as I could not find any reference to it anywhere else if there was a limit on the number of drawings that one person could submit into the auction? I am making drawings specifically for selling in Confuzzled. I am trying to keep pieces varied so it won't be piles and piles of the same species in the same position (even if I have a definite bias to 'standing fox facing left') but there is no point in continuing to make these pieces if on the day I am told I am only allowed to submit five or so.

On another note: I am leaving fairly early on the Monday morning- does this mean that I will be unable to collect my money if my art does sell? Or if I buy art myself that I won't be able to ask people to pay early or for me to pick up art early?
Sorry if this stuff is on the website, but I looked and found nothing that answered my questions.


Sincerely, Cursico.
