No, I'm saying we didn't get the foyer because the librarian on the phone
didn't think one could do that, and there were other people in the other
rooms. But as for all three rooms, I'm not sure, that would sound logical
but I'd have to go call.

Well, I don't think anyone is really into that. At least I hope not. I
could think of worse ways to make money. It'd be as pathetic as guys who
sell used computer parts.
It's my belief that sponsors should really just help pay our operational
costs (room rental, building boards) and that prizes really should be small
but neat things (shirts, hats, little plastic models) as a token of
appreciation.

Probably not at our level of operation, it's not worth it.

Well, I'm seriously considering doing the organization only aspect, seeing
as I can't really build for anything. But even if we don't have a person,
we could have a designated table as the "Get your info about the
organization, the sponsors, get you free parts, drop off your free parts".

Well, you draw up the big sheet on the easel around 12:45PM with a Sharpie.
Mind you SOMEONE TOOK MY SHARPIE. GRRR. :) Anyways, I think if we sort of
have a defined order, people will abide better and know when they can afford
to go offline for a five minute break to patch something up. Or
alternatively, always preannounce the next two players "on deck" before running.
