Yeh but the idea is to get hunters into the blocks and the rules are pretty clear. If every aucklander scared of melting in the rain pulled out there would be a tonne of unused ballots and realistically not many people can organise to do a fiordland trip with even a months notice. I do see it as a bit harsh especially as its not even the core blocks but I can see both sides.
