((another good point, but remeber it's the "party hunters" local and
otherwise that pay the bulk of the gate fees OR SHOULD! that's why i've
always favored a refund policy for those who Do bust butt throwing an event,
why SHOULD the "same 10%" bust butt and have to pay the same increased site
fees? not fair, and let all be advised YES I'M SELDOM one of the 10% but i
help when asked, be advised Heralding a sore point to me in this barony! it
conflicts with bardcraft and i've caught dispicable hell over it at times))

>                     This will take much thought, effort and discussion.

((here your fence sitting, but i understand *smile*))

((you are SOOOOO RIGHT))
