| Procrastinator needs SN Entry Form
I'm looking for a PDF for the summer nationals entry form. In usual fashion, I have procrastinated and can't seem to get on the US fencing website.
Can someone help me out by posting it or sending it to me?
A drink to the 1st to help

| Copy/paste entry form onto a drawing program. Enter text fields using the writing portion of the app. Save as PDF and email to USFA. That's how I do my "online" registration for NACs.

| I use the mouse and freehand draw my signature, export it as a gif and copy-paste it onto the form when needed. It's a pretty good reproduction of my signature. (I'm thinking I should change my sig to...

| I faxed mine in Thursday. Do they send email confirmation for receiving my entry? I'm paranoid.

| Usually, a confirmation is faxed back if you include the reply confirmation form with your entry.
(You can check your credit card to see if you have been charged.) | |

| I actually sent the fax confirmation and wrote on it asking to email me if at all possible. They usually email me my NAC confirmations... I was surprised it wasn't an option on the SN form.

They probably never updated the SN forms to include email on the confirmation page or something. Now I'm paranoid they didn't get my fax...

| I always FedEx the entries, that way I have their signature on file. I'm always right on the deadline so I need the proof.  | |

| I didnt get a fax or email confirmation. I then emailed them today and havent gotten a reply yet. And no posting on the web site to show who's registered.
<sigh>
So, when is the USFA going to move into the 20th century? How about a nice automated online registration system. Too much to ask for? Hmm, maybe there's someone who's already implemented one that the USFA can use. No?

Can occasionally be really useful.

| Err. So I just got an reply from USFA and they told me they didn't get my entry and triple fees apply. I'm not going to pay triple fees since I did fax it in on Thursday. I hate fax... What to do what to do...

| How many events are you signing up for? If it's reasonable, I think we can get enough f.netters here to pledge a dollar or so to your triple fees. Pay yer fees and we'll chip a buck or two to Craig at SN. At the end of your days there (please tell us), he'll give you what we chipped in. It may not meet the triple fees, or you might come out with a net extra in the black!
Craig, can you help manage a slush fund for akaiyuki?
Oh, and for others, don't bother trying to get your late entries in now...
