I'm with SM (you've seen my comments on the fb page!) If it was single army, I might even be able to bring a few of us down.
The reason we're not involved in the stockport event, which is a stones throw from my house, is that two 1000 point armies (good and evil) are too demanding for relatively new players (although I support the event completely and wish it the best of luck)
I understand the premise but the danger is making the events too exclusive towards those who have been involved in the hobby for a long time.
Still, I very much appreciate the efforts of this amazing community to build an events calendar, but hopefully providing the opinion of the "new hobbyist" to be considered.
I think whilst the goal is to build a large network of potential participators, then the goal should be mass participation.
The question to be answered should be "how can we get as many of the UK SBG community involved with these events?"
I think the answer lies in reducing the demand on the average player, a strong advantage over GW types events.
A player driven campaign for UK based tournaments shouldn't try and rival GW in grandeur, but instead use perceived weaknesses as strengths... flexibility, size, cost... all considerations.
Again, my two cents! I appreciate all that you're all doing!
