I don't really understand the point in doing early bird tickets based on a closed number of tickets. How a bout a fixed date before which you can get the early bird tickets and after which you cannot? We are the early birds, here, paying attention to this list and still getting frustrated because, judging by how fast the first batch was sold out, we are going to have to enter a strong competition of hitting F5 faster than anyone so we can get the early bird ticket. This organisation method seems very unprofessional, and it seems to be based on figuring things out as we go along. Well, this is not the first year the conference is held, why not use the expertise from precious years? why this desire to do everything new and different? is it trying to prove a point? I signed up because I was in Pycon Ireland, thought it was great and wanted to scale up, and I was very excited until I started to read all about the organisation problems in this list. Now I'm not sure I want to go. I am always late for all conferences and for this one I thought, okay, I'm going to be on top of this one, so much that I will even get the early bird rate. Now turns out I have to have a virtual competition on a week day at noon! to get that. Nah. Please, get your act together, this is nonsense.
