I talked to a person last night who has a bid in to autocrat an event
later this year.
It seemd she had intended to use the same site as last year - a dry boy
scout camp. Why? Probably just lack of research. Last year it was
chosen because nothing else was suitable and available for that weekend.
Without even re-checking availabilities this year, it appears she had
intended to use the same site.
When I brought up the dry/wet issue, she dismissed it. "People will
drink. As long as I don't see the drinks...". She said how at all
the other "dry" events she's been to, people had it pre-mixed into
2-liters of soda or disguised as something else.
So is this dry/wet issue really an issue? If everybody drinks anyway,
it doesn't matter what site you use, right?
Is/should the attitude be that we don't care about the owners rules?
Should the autocrat have the "I don't care, but if I see it, I'm supposed
to say something" attitude?
I think this is contrary to the wishes of the camp owners. I'd much
rather see a wet site than risk problems with the owners.
