Note:
Some people reported not being able to receive registration confirmations from us during last year’s event. That is due to the spam preventing filter which some of the email service implemented, such as Gmail and Yahoo. We have updated our email services and improved the deliverability of our email system. But, we still can’t guarantee that 100% of emails will be on time. (Yahoo can delay the email up to 72 hours, and Gmail may be even longer). If you have experienced such issue last year, you can add info@satoricm.net and eventregistration@satoricm.net to your email contact list. Doing so may help avoid the problem of emails being blocked or delayed by your email service. You can also contact us at satoristrings@live.com. Our staff will forward you the confirmation or any other information accordingly.
