Adamantius would be the one dealing with a curia.  In Ansteorra, you would 
be 'splainin' to the Kingdom Seneschal and Exchequer, just how you managed 
to blow a profitable event.  An incipient shire has a better chance of 
getting away with this one than a 30+ year barony with long term players 
that should know better.  Irritating the PTB, is liable to get the group a 
serious change of management.

Now, I have nothing against renting equipment.  We've rented tables, chairs, 
vans, trailers, canvas and any number of other things needed to pull off an 
event.  I considered renting a propane fueled convection oven at one point. 
But to use rentals to stick it to the man is likely to get renting 
prohibited.  Not something I want to do when it may save the barony's bacon 
down the road.
