Would it mean dressing up as Stiletta? Um, I mean yeah, sounds good.

sounds good

I'm interested. Hopefully time off work wouldn't be a problem
-
I forgot to mention :-
For me to attend, the date would need to be after Sept 1st. Reason being my day jobs holiday allowance for this year has already been used up with existing convention work. It cycles over to next year on Sept 1st.
Thanks and apologies for being awkward!

Yep, happy to be involved!

Dear all,
With apologies for the delay, we've now set up a page for our proposed Midnight Hunt in January based on the feedback we received:
https://www.facebook.com/events/283516225811953/
Please let us know (on that page) if you can attend. If we have sufficient interest, we'll go ahead with the event.
-
As I remain the only person over 14 not on Facebook please note my involement here.
-
None.
We can't work out how to get it insured.`
-
Not the update I wanted to hear.
What are, if any, the possibilities to choose from?
-
I won’t run it without insurance and at the moment the only insurer that we’ve had contact with wouldn’t even quote us because the event was perceived to be too dangerous in its current form due to traffic.
We could give each team their own guide/GM but it’s unclear how much training they would need and we would, in any event, then additionally require employee insurance. Plus, such a solution is unscalable.
We could perhaps do it in a traffic free environment. But we haven’t found one that is tolerable.
We could try a different insurer but I suspect they’re all similar. Besides, this takes time and can only really be done during work hours.
We could remove the goblins, but I don’t think that fully satisfies the insurer and would reduce the game significantly.
Even all other factors notwithstanding the absolute minimum premium would be about £10 per person (for a zero risk event). Therefore we’d have to charge and that brings overheads into play, not to mention high expectations from participants.
Then you start wondering “why bother” when its on the verge of viability anyway.
