[Ansteorra] Pay-2-play, Pay-2-fight, Pay-2-whatever...

[Richard Threlkeld]

Don't know about successful lawsuits (I don't think there have been any),
but I have been privy to several in the formative stage that were averted
due to good documentation, policies, and quick action by the officers. There
was at least one that made it to a finding from the court and we won. But
I'm have not been in a position to see these for some time. 

Every time there is an unfortunate accident, there will be people looking
for someone else to blame and sometimes they will start suing everyone in
sight hoping to get some help.

Wait a minute. While the rest of this post makes a lot of sense, just 
how often does the SCA actually get sued because someone was hurt at an
event?
