hey Beate

sorry to ask you this but someone on HUKD posted more codes for Afrika Afrika and i copied the post onto this thread http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=689825&page=40

was it right for me to post it there? lolz sorry to ask you this here...if anyone interested......

Afrika Afrika at the 02.

Passwords are:

cougar - 4th March 8pm
lynx - 5th March 7pm
panther - 6th March 8pm
jaguar - 7th March 8pm
ocelot - 9th March 7pm

closing date is 28th February

Of course it was. I am still subscribed to that thread so saw it straight away, but not everybody will be so I was just about to give your post a mention here. Btw, I PM'd the board guide a while back about this thread and asked her to move it out of Gone but was it any good? because tickets were still trickling in - but was ignored. Maybe you could PM them as well? Oh and thanks for the find! Amba_Gambla has already edited her opening post to reflect your new passwords. I will keep my fingers firmly off the button this time though!

this always used to be the way,,,,,and the tickets used to say 1st come, 1st served....and they gave away tons to make up for 'no shows'

screenings always used to be pretty well attended as well but since SeeFilmFirst came onto the scene things have been very poor with people wanting tickets but being unable to get any but when people attend its half empty.

no good for us OR the film company paying to screen the preview

Btw, has anyone here seen The Boss of It All on Tuesday with Time Out? Haven't heard anything about it from anyone!

erm...which one is the board guide? MSE Andrea? if so i'll PM to see if she can kindly move the thread back.....but how comes this is on the Quick Grabbit.....shouldn't it be part of Freebies aswell?

oh you see the print out to collect tickets...does it have all the info you entered e.g. name, address etc?

well you can always request again and distribute to others

Beate

Don't worry, I PM'd the board guides of the Grabbit board and someone has moved it back. Yes, it's a freebie but one where you also have to be quick so presumably that's why it's over there?

You will just get a confirmation email with your name on it if you win, but they don't check ID.

I posted about this on monday night, I think it was a first (and hopefully the last) time they did a shared screening with SeeFilmFirst & ShowCase Insider in the SAME SCREEN! I have been to alot of the screenings (as an Insider & SeeFilmFirst) and they dont tend to mix them, this was the biggest queue I have seen, and yes there was alot of people who went away empty handed (I feel for you guys)

I would say maybe sign up for an insider card (link below) they are giving them out to everyone so you might aswell have one.. They send you invites to ALL the insider screenings, so you should know if the SeeFilmFirst (or other) screening is shared (and whether to get there extra early or not)

Normal SFF screenings are usually about half full, so getting a seat is easy, but the insider screenings due to them over advertising the fact of you get free films are always packed, in my opinion they should have limited the ammount of cards they issued, but they just want to get people there, and hope that maybe if you dont get into the screening, you pay to see another film!
