Wow. A big thanks to the 35 people who voted on this thread and made their voices heard. We couldn't have done it without your help. It has been a hard fought hour and 50 minutes, but we showed here that when people come together with a common voice and a common goal, we can truly make it loud.

As Dean Kamen once said: "Everybody has to be able to participate in a future that they want to live for."

The people of Scandiraveia thank you.

Re: Rave?

How would we attend a rave when we're waiting to find out what side of the dome the Chairman's award will be announced on while we listen to 2 hours of electronic music first?.....

Re: Rave?

Yeah that was annoying. They gathered everyone together at one end of the dome to watch the Einstein finals. Then they wanted everyone to get up and move and find new seats at the other end of the dome for the closing ceremonies. They should have announced Chairman's at the end of the Einstein finals, then moved everyone over for the concert.

Of course I understand the logistics of this was to set up one stage while still using another - but did they have any idea how long it takes to get 20,000 people to move through the arena, shuffling through the narrow aisles, all at the same time? That's not even counting the matter of grabbing food in between.

Yes, it was an inconvenience last year. It might be quicker if they offer 254 and 148 shirts to the 1st people to make it to the other area?

Re: Rave?

The 2014 party was brilliant. I must have missed the rave though. Too busy eating the free food no doubt. Last year was a huge disappointment after 2014.

I think at that point it becomes a danger. I nearly broke my arm during the finals scrambling to get to my seat before the final Einstein match began (I fell over a full row of seating, landing on my forarm on top of a chair two rows down from my seat). If you offer such coveted prizes I wouldn't be surprised if people actually did break bones falling in their rush to get to the other side.

Cool idea, but I like the suggestion of them announcing chairman's from the Einstein field and then having the music going while people move better from a safety perspective. Those chairs are quite solid and hurt a fair amount when you land on them wrong.
