It’s not surprising that there is some confusion over the answer. You could
end the confusion by making a definitive statement.

I’m with Steve H on this one--the clips you yourself have taken and compiled
into your post are not contradictory and they do lay out, at least in my mind,
what’s going to happen with any monies made.
I also want to further state that just by the sheer politeness and
professionalism shown by the organizers in replying to these ‘questions’ that
they are shoing alotta class and patience.
These ‘questions’ about money are, at least to me, a thinly veiled accusatory
‘Hey!! You’re screwing us hobbyists’ when nothing I read or see is remotely
close.
Your questions have been answered, as you yourself just posted. It is clear as
clear can be. Anything else would be just nitpicking for the sake of casting
this show, the organizers and any who partake in the planning and execution of
this event in a negative light.
To what end? I don’t know--why do you have this overwhelming need to be
negative towards those that are trying to make a good show for the fans?
Did Christina get the spanish inquisition for the Brickfests? Why here, why
now?
I can’t go ‘cause of finances and I’m way over here in s ontario, but if the
planets were in the proper alignment, I would sooooo be there (for the most
part, just to bug Steve H for a few days ‘cause he’s gotten it pretty easy as of
late and not enough s. ontario people are picking on him)
All the best to the organizers and to the attendees--it sounds like a phenominal
show.
