[QUOTE="Matt, post: 161491, member: 1"] I'd still charge something for incidentals, but I like the idea of baking out the Lunch and cocktails. I really think Lunch is overpriced... unless of course the venue swap to something more casual comes with better options for this, which it may. Pat also raised a good point about speculative bookings. My generous refund policy has encouraged that in the past, however, there was always sufficient demand to swap people out, so 99% of people were able to transfer bookings even up to the day prior to the event. That said, I do dislike speculative bookings, and will need to work around that. Frankly, while I like the idea of this being somewhat forum centric, I also don't want to blinker it to that. There are many good people who aren't overly active here, or who didn't join. For example, there are some people who joined TravelCodex and feel some allegiance to the forum there. In my mind, that doesn't change the value that they could have to the community. Also, some people are just silly. I had one guy rip into me for putting the last tickets on sale the day before a national holiday which meant he was in a car and therefore missed buying them. [/QUOTE]
