Asomodai Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 If it's in December or after then I am as well.
MrWilson Posted October 29, 2019 Author Posted October 29, 2019 Glad to see everyone is still keen, I'll update you all here with a bit more info then facebook We've negotiated a time frame which is November 11th however! This could easily go past that as they have asked for more money. Thankfully not to much however we are re-negotiating the price and as soon as that has been accepted we will be in. This is for Hextable! Sheppey site will be available now at the same time as Sheppey..

There is a big lack of CQB, especially in the south East since The Mall closed its doors, Zed said they were trying their hardest to find and reopen another CQB site but nothing has materialised yet so we are all keen for some room clearance!!

MrWilson Posted October 31, 2019 Author Posted October 31, 2019 I will post it here first... in Short. Hextable wont happen until January. This is all because of a section 77 that is unique to schools. So we have changed tactic and are going for a few hospitals we have had made available to us in the Kent area (Dartford / gravesend and Maidstone). Everyone is now getting a refund and we will open up bookings when we got a confirmed date. Hi everyone, thanks for being patient.Unfortunately the landowners of Hextable school have put a delay on our contract until January next year. We feel that we owe you an explanation as you’ve all been understanding and patient with us, and we’re able to share the reasons for the long delays now.‘Section 77’ is how Councils dispose of old schools, making them available for other uses. The Brexit saga peaked just as the Hextable schools S77 was submitted to the Government, causing the long delays and unpredictable waiting times we’ve been experiencing.The Land Owners have apologised to us, and if permitted we will share the body of text with you to be as transparent as we can.We will also be contacting everyone with an existing reservation via the email address you provided with further information.While we wait for the Hextable site and keep chasing it (it's still happening), we’re actively pursuing other great indoor sites such as old hospitals in the Kent region, and we’re in talks with the LandOwners to start using them (these other sites don’t have the Section 77 issue as it only applies to old schools)

Is sheppey in a similar situation? Its okay. Like we said its not... not going to happen its just a long process. We're nearly 15,000 in the hole but we should recop that when we finally get the site. The good news is the section 77 holds are only for school sites. It wont apply to the warehouses & hospitals we are looking at. First one being this Tuesday. But with time scales now things wont happen to the new year..
DopeYourScope Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 Well @Asomodai will definitely make it to the first game now then.
Sawyer Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 January. The Month of family birthdays. I'll try and find a sober Sunday! ?

Davegolf Posted November 5, 2019 Posted November 5, 2019 I've just been refunded so I assume the handbrake is firmly on now then. Damn it!
MrWilson Posted November 5, 2019 Author Posted November 5, 2019 Until the people at the property services come out of the new year / christmas break

Glad there’s a lot open honest dialogue about the site. I know your posting on here etc, but in all honesty there was no way I was going to pay for a ticket to a site that was uncertain of opening. I’m glad I didn’t, but I’m glad Dave got his refund and you guys are as genuine as your coming across. Cant wait to play, and happy to miss the first few game if I don’t prebook etc due to my cynicism and be proved wrong by a cracking site!!
MrWilson Posted November 22, 2019 Author Posted November 22, 2019 Appreciate it @Albiscuit The pre-orders were only opened when we got a contract written up after a few weeks they didn't sign it. It didnt feel right holding peoples money over the Christmas period. We haven't given up we've been really busy working on something big. Biggest in the UK infact. 12 floors big. We've just been given a yes to use the site and given the floor plans but now on the negotiating table to work out ££££.
hitmanNo2 Posted November 22, 2019 Posted November 22, 2019 12 floors? Intriguing. There can't be many properties like that around. Basement and sub basement?
