Great competition overall ! Good organisation and great atmosphere ! The last minute changes proved to be good ones. If you were not there, let me tell you you missed something great.
Hoping that the 2006 edition will be that good (or even better ?).

I still get "error 404 - unable to find the page" on the video menu :(

I still get "error 404 - unable to find the page" on the video menu :(

If yes,
Might be an old cookie ... have you cleared cache recently?

I could open individual videos OK with Windows Media Player via Windows XP Pro, running Internet Explorer 6.0.2800.1106, just a few minutes ago.

Hope this helps...

Congratulation for this nice tournament...
sorry I just came back from holliday, and only try to see your pictures now. If you allow me one advice: be carefull with the name you give to the file of your video.On the web you'd better not use space or + or - in the name of the file, it may create problem when someone try to open it.

[Phil]

The videos problems are fixed,
you can now watch our nice "internet quality" videos :confused2 ("hum")
and discover the finals of the open cup!

:wink:
