[Ansteorra] Feast Reservation Manners

[Gail Taylor]

This is why there has been a move towards making feast reservations
pre-paid.  Every event that I've attended where reservations were not
prepaid, there has been a mad scramble to sell unclaimed feast spots
during the afternoon...with limited success.   I advise you to follow
the trend and make people pre-pay if they want to reserve a feast spot...
