Ballycotton 10 Entries...Day 2.

Day One could have gone better with the Primo entry website being unable to handle the volume of entries. Primo seem to be fine with smaller races where the demand is spread out but they obviously don't have the capacity to handle large traffic volumes.

Here is a reminder of the conditions...

2) For Athletics Ireland and Athletics Northern Ireland affiliated members plus those
who ran the four races

Getting an error in the entry form's first page..

Failed to convert property value of type java.lang.String to required type java.util.Date for property entrant.dob; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Could not parse date: Unparseable date: "$date.format(dd/MM/yyyy,$PageInfo.entrant.dob)"

Major panic setting in right now

I bet you are registering from a work network. Their firewall is blocking the java validation.

As an AI member, I registered on Thursday. I had no issue, the site was quick, responsive and easy to follow. I appreciate on Wed, when you have high numbers competing for limited places, it was different. First come first served and technology don't mix, users become frustrated with technology and process, and it harms the reputation of event. Given the high numbers applying, they may want to adopt a raffle process, where users can register their details online over 2 days, names go in a hat, and first 2000 receive a email and link to pay, remove the technology from the equation, and give all a fair shot.
