Ok, these are just random thoughts
(i cant stress this enuff, these are just ideas)
now that I know MANY people read this group I'm gonna want feedback
I spoke about this briefly early at the start sat.I'd like to propose we
collect a small amount of money either pay what you can (or lets state a
number. how about $20)
It could be the same way Todd has the membership for Lugnet. its
(lugnet) free to all but a suggested amount of $$ buys you into the club
<humor>
(once in the RTLToronto club you will be taught the secret handshake, be
given a secret decoder ring, and for slightly more money; about 1
million dollars, the use of the company pickup truck)
</humor>
Then with any money we collect we pay back any debts, and $$ left over
goes to a prize or to pay an event organizer?? And by event organizer i
mean anyone who cares not about entering a robot but would like to take
tickets at the door, maintain the rtltoronto e-mail list, sit at the
front and watch the clock and tell everyone we have to clean up. deal
with library staff, ect. I'm sure someone has a friend or sister we
could trust and then offer a few $$ to.
what about a small robot entry fee? say $5 to play?
what if the prize is $$ does this make it all to official?? what about
if spectators pays a $1 a person. what if that $$ went to of set the
cost of the room?? what if any left over $$ becomes a prize???

And just a FYI the current amount outstanding is:
$115 for the game board (as it is)
$20 for the rental of the library
----------------------
$135.00 Canadian total
I would like to "pass the hat" at the next dinner and suggest a small
amount of $20 for those who feel they would like to contribute.
if you cant make it out to a dinner but feel the need to pay for the day
of fun, send me mail in private and we can make an arrangement.
All money collected above the $135 will first go to the booking of the
next event.

| Hi, Collecting money for participating is fair. It show commitments from the participants and it helps paying the room. A prize in money may bring issue with Lottery and Games Ontario (actually any prize). I guess you can prove that by building a (...) (24 years ago, 20-Feb-01, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

| (...) As well, the 5 dollar entry fee for entering 'bots is okay with me. Keeping it free for the audience is a good idea (for now) just to get better known in the community. So i think I'll stop writing now, unless I come up with another 'bot (...) (24 years ago, 20-Feb-01, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
