The following people expressed an interest to attend but are not confirmed because we have not assigned them to this turtle:

The reason can be 3 fold:

  • This is their third choice and we have already assigned them to their first 2 choices
  • This is their second choice but it conflicts with the fact that their first choice runs only once and at the same time
  • They have only just registered (this is done manually)
