      I'm waiting for the Facebook post that reads:
      "Here's your first announcement: Please welcome *random band* on board Round XI (not a typo)"

      Now that would really mess with us. :mrgreen:

      I'm feeling a Friday the 13th announcement...plus it's a full moon, so why not?! (For real, I'm just wishful thinking... *sigh*)

      Godflesh wrote: Thu Sep 12, 2019 12:58 am My new prediction is September 14th, because it’s two weeks later than last year (which doesn’t sound *too* bad, if you forget the fact the we sail 3 weeks earlier), and 10 days (assuming booking opens one day later) for booking seems like just barely enough.
      So I expect a warning shot on Friday, and the first announcement Saturday morning.
      I'm expecting first announcement and Gold bookings to start this weekend...while I'm over in Holland for the Ayreon shows. Because, y'know, annoying inconvenience. :lol:

      Maybe he's holding off on announcing Ayreon as the first band until after those shows in Holland? (Yeah, riiight.)

      You’d think, but I’m guessing we won’t hear anything until the 18th since it’s a week before the plan cut off.

        God damn I hope Andy is supplying UMC staff with free speed/caffeine/energy drinks.

        Because with 10 days to go now, if and when bookings finally open, no-one working bookings at UMC is gonna get any sleep if they want to process all those bookings before Sept. 25!

        I like how the first thing you hoped for was speed, and then your mind went to caffiene and energy drinks. Wonderful priorities :lol:

        Not a chance!

        Trust me, Andy will not let me die here

        I'm off to Descendants of Crom III in Pittsburgh this weekend to see my favourite lesser known band in the world. Andy will show up during their set and hand me the keys to the karaoke machine then proceed to announce Argus as the headliner for 70KX

        It is known :headbanger:
        So far at least, 2011, 2012 & 2015 were enough for me

        I would say the 21st is a logical choice for the first announcement.

        I can picture the UMC meeting:

        UMC crew: "Hey Andy, the cruise is 3 weeks earlier next year. When should we start announcing?"
        Andy: "Hm... Yeah tough question. Cruise 3 weeks earlier, so let's..."
        UMC crew: "... start announcing on the 10th of August! That's 3 weeks earlier as well."
        Andy: "WHAT? Are you out of your mind? No, we're going to start announcing on the 21st of September. 3 weeks earlier cruise demands 3 weeks later announcing!" ;)

        I can picture the UMC meeting:

        UMC crew: "Hey Andy, the cruise is 3 weeks earlier next year. When should we start announcing?"
        Andy: "Hm... Yeah tough question. Cruise 3 weeks earlier, so let's..."
        UMC crew: "... start announcing on the 10th of August! That's 3 weeks earlier as well."


        This actually makes sense in a wrong way

        I hope so, but we haven't got the "SOON" post to start the megathread yet.
        I'm only here to do two things: play the bagpipes and gargle sulphuric acid. Looks like we're almost out of acid.

        No more sense in trying to predict what's gonna happen now... only one thing is sure, it's that the process with staggered booking for gold/silver/public and/or the payment plan deadline will be changed but I won't venture to guess how and when that will happen :D

        We should stop guessing. I think Andy is reading everything and is trying to disapoint us on purpose.

        Let's predict that the first and only announcement for 2021 will be on January 11th. Andy will announce all the bands plus dates for booking and prices during his "Skipper's thanks"-speech!
