No doubt most of you are aware that OKB charges $99 p.a. member****p,
and an ADDITIONAL $99 p.a. for tournament member****p. The number of
tournaments has been increased recently (see below), and the schedule
certainly caters rather better now for European members.
This month, The Spectator announced that (for July only) new members
would receive a year's tournament member****p for free.
I have since clarified this with OKB, and the offer is actually as one
would hope:-
- A new member joining in July ($99) gets 12-months tourney free
- An existing member, paying $99 in July, will:-
have his member****p extended by 12 months
receive 12-months tourney member****p, starting July
- An existing Tournament member, paying $99 in July will:-
Have BOTH his regular member****p AND tournament member****p
extended by 12 months.
Just thought that some of you might be interested:-)
