Hey, so I set it up. I left Podium's seeding as it is, and Bristol can adjust if they want. I would if I was the organiser.
In terms of missing results, send me an email tournaments@nahardcourt.com it may be you have multiple profiles which need to be merged

Hcbp.org is dead.
Podium imported data from hcbp.org, when that was used for registration. When hcbp.org was maintained (not for 2 years now) Zach would import results back in.
The reason the NAH commissioned Podium to write all the registration stuff was because hcbp.org isn't useable any more.
As far as I can tell all it imported was name, team name and user id (a hidden primary key)
(No emails, passwords, etc...)
All stats in podium are based on results in Podium.Emyr, if you haven't signed up for Podium, I'll check which ones you have stats for as soon as I get up (on pacific time right now)

After two years on the bike from this project: http://www.lfgss.com/thread77396.html I'm about to start building up a new one, which will be Polo bike number 4.
The Max Power was great, and I'd be happy still to ride it, but the opportunity came up to get a bike by Ryan.
As I've moved to North America, adding S&S couplers pays for itself in just a few flights, up to $200 per flight is normal for a bike.
Raw frame:

Painted (the green one):

For wheels I'm using the new Velocity NoBS rims (designed for polo):

The hubs will be Fixcraft front and rear. On the front their 2013 disk hub, on the rear their 2014 prototype cassette hub:

BB and Headset will be Hope.
Pivotal saddle and seatpost as on the previous bike
The bars, front brake, and the cranks from the previous bike

they're the stadium shirts.. the 'match' shirts are £90 that's where the faux outrage is coming from
That is a little unfair though, as replica shirts are usually not the same as the real ones anyway.
Here for some reason they have seemed to have released something a bit closer to the real thing, for more money.

Q: What time are we finishing on the Sunday?
A: Timetable suggests the final should finish by 7, however the court is booked until 9 to allow for possible over-runs.Q: Any developments concerning format / groups?
A: Just expecting to do a straight Swiss Rounds with all 28 teams. I'm not sure we have so many that we need to group it. If we're wrong about that let us know.
Aiming for 5 Swiss rounds then double elim - hopefully for all 28 teams but it'll depend on how well we run to time. At least for top 24.Just for reference, on 2 courts, 28 team double elim would take about 10.5 hours, using typical timings and breaks in play.

Victor, no you don't have to.
Everyone can exist as a profile on Podium as they have in the past, whenever an organiser adds you. (you had 3 profiles, I merged them all)
Signing up for an account gives you three things:
1) Ability to see your stats
2) Ability to update your details
3) Ability to register your team for tournaments.
The tournament registration is a new thing, so far only used for North American tournaments. It's completely optional, Podium can still be used as it also has, without registration, it's just an added feature (meant to replace what hcbp.org did).
