i34 signups + Early Bird Discount Now Open!

[K]

Yes you saw it here first, i34 bookings including our Early Bird discount is now available for everyone :D

With the introduction of the seat picker, great new venue with Paintball, Quad Biking and Hostel / Hotel spaces available there's never been a greater reason to ensure you book early!

So everyone knows the Hotel costs £85 per night and the Hostel rooms, two beds, cost £35 per night.

[afty]

What is the early bird discount, and how do I claim it?

Also, I started booking a ticket (£80-gold discount) and got this:
BOOKING DETAILS:
Booking Type:
Days booked on: Event Ticket (covers all event days)
Game Area: Other Games
Cost: £79.00
Is there some problem with the EAS for Gold Ticket Holders possibly?

Any provision being made at this event or future events for private rooms?

[Mouse_On_Mars]

If you carry on and book, the price gets corrected to £64.

[Vertigo1]

Yet another comment about "hotel spaces being available" yet they just aren't. What's the deal here guys?

[beZaa]

Sorry, your are not permitted to signup for i34 ( Address not allowed ).

[K]

When did you get that beZaa that restriction was lifted earlier.

[Say_Ten]

Aye, the price on the confirmation page is pre-discounts, they're applied when you click to book. I appreciate that it's a bit rubbish and there are plans afoot to improve things ;)

[K]

Not at this time.

Some clarification please MPUK, thanks.

[K]

Could you try force reloading the page to ensure its not a caching issue please.

[GFiSH]

Booked and paid just after 2pm and got the discount.

[K]

Some clarification please MPUK, thanks.

Hotel spaces will be made available shortly but be warned they are quite limited so if you want one you will have to be quick.

[beZaa]

Define "shortly" :)

Should we be sitting here hitting F5? :)

[NA.rupert]

is it not going to be possible to get "Extra Network Connection" for i34? i notice its not on the list of available services currently.

[chucky341]

i booked mine place for i34

but it say i have paid for i34 & one eas (which i aint as far as i know ) so i can onlypay for one more eas so i cant pay for i34

but when i click on the booking it said that i have been to i34 ( which i think it ment to be i33) but my i34 aint paid for but booked

[beZaa]

Same happening as of 16.35

[afty]

Aye, the price on the confirmation page is pre-discountsAha, thanks for clarifying, will give it a go.

[afty]

Not at this time.Cheers for the response... what is the "early bird" discount though - I can't find any mention of it anywhere except on the forum.

[K]

20% for all Early Bird bookings and for gold members like yourself free EAS.

[In$ane]

signups don't work for me

Sorry, your are not permitted to signup for i34 ( Address not allowed ).

[Say_Ten]

Just to confirm, you're at the following page?

http://www.multiplay.co.uk/i34/signuppage3.asp ?

[Niax]

20% for all Early Bird bookings and for gold members like yourself free EAS.

What about us Silver Members?

[K]

What about us Silver Members?

You get 20%

[Say_Ten]

You get 20%, 10% more than you would if you paid out of the early bird period.

[K]

Hotel ( lodge ) spaces now available, there's only 20, so if you want one you'll need to book & pay ASAP!!

[Niax]

You get 20%, 10% more than you would if you paid out of the early bird period.

my point is that everyone gets 20% so for the early bird so the silver discount level isn't really a discount...

Its more than you would get normally so yes it is a discount :)

[Say_Ten]

i booked mine place for i34

but it say i have paid for i34 & one eas (which i aint as far as i know ) so i can onlypay for one more eas so i cant pay for i34

but when i click on the booking it said that i have been to i34 ( which i think it ment to be i33) but my i34 aint paid for but booked

If I'm reading this properly it sounds like you've got a gold discount, which means that EAS is free and hence flagged as paid before you pay for your place itself. To pay for the space you don't click the booking links, that will say you've already booked, not attended. Instead you want to use the payment page that can be found here:

https://www.multiplay.co.uk/i34/m_eventpayments.asp

[Vertigo1]

So £85 quid a night - ouch!

Not too bad for a pucka hotel room I spose but still adds up to well over £250 in total with entry fee. By the time you've factored in travel and food it's going to be the thick end of £400 which is a bit extreme. Spose that's the price of not kipping in a tent :)

So if there are 58 rooms does that mean 38 have already been nicked by staff? Obviously a lot of very flush staff! ;)

[chucky341]

no i aint got gold

this is my fourth event

but i phone up multiplay they r goin to sort it soon

[K]

£85 is the Hotel rooms, dont forget the Hostel rooms which are available as well and they are only £35 per night per room, each room has two beds, so thats only £17.50 per night per person.

[K]

4 is only Silver, you need 8 events for Gold.

[chucky341]

i know that K

all i wanted to do was pay for my normal bookin & eas for £79 that in the early bird discount

[K]

Sorry Im confused then, whats the problem?

[NA.rupert]

There should be no IP restrictions on the signup now, can you confirm the link your using as I've tested here and am not getting this.

[brightside]

One question, how long does the early bird offer last, couldn't find any mention of it, but i might just fail

[Unplugged]

Yer someone raised a ticked under our support system about it and was kind enough to provide the URL. Thanks for pointing it out :)

20% for all Early Bird bookings and for gold members like yourself free EAS.Ah, cheers for clarifying, free EAS for Gold is a nice idea. Priority queue for Gold would be nice too :)

[Harribo]

is it not going to be possible to get "Extra Network Connection" for i34? i notice its not on the list of available services currently.
bump ? :(

Considering that the rows are 24 people per row and that there are 2 rows back 2 back this adds up to 48 people per row. Large switches genrally come in 24/48 port varities this means that there wouldnt be any spare ports avaliable on the switch for an additoinal network connection.
This would need to be confirmed for the gods on high tho! :-)

Extra Network Connection is no longer available as a service. We have retired it in favour of wireless access.

[ez64]

aka like 10 events for gold discount

or whatever it is.

[K]

You can indeed.

[Yeggstry]

You can indeed.

Presumably that doesn't include EAS? My gf and I will most likely be coming on thursday with her as a spectator.

Correct EAS isnt included in that.
