Adrian, please take notice of my mail!

Lars has a very valid point and it is completely fair that anyone having a 
reciept of payment can present that and the date on that will be used instead 
of the actual transfer date. Another point is that it is definitely not fair 
to open the registration in the weekend where all germans could make money 
transfer with the e-banks while danes and others would have to wait until 
monday.

Being absent is something we cannot compensate for _as long as_ the time of 
registration has been announced well in advance so people can take 
precautions.

Time zones are easy to compenssate for.

According to statistics we should have at most 50% germans. If there are more 
they are overrepresented according to their community-percentage.

In fact, there are 52 germans out of 81 meaning 64%. It is possible that maybe 
10 persons outside germany could have made it in time if they had the same 
speedy transfer.
