...No one group is going to have a claim on the tables, they are there for
everyone. They are our tables (WAMALTCs), but we're bringing them for everyone.
I guess the general idea would be that everyone gets one structure set up before
anyone gets two :-) Although I like your idea of "reserving" one table for each
LTC.

...If we spill over all the tables, we can go to the floor... and if worse comes
to worse, there are hallways and other rooms we can spill into (provided we
don't interfere with whatever else is going on in the building :-)

_that_ was fun :-)

...The unfortunate part is that train/town displays are big things and can
quickly consume even a good sized room, so we want to set a _big_ room for
trains/town, but the big room was already reserved to another group on Sunday
:-/
...Depending on what the final room arrangement ends up, the train display may
resurrect in some minor form in a different room on Saturday night/sunday (I
emphasize _may!!!_ I do _not_ speak for the BrickFest committee... just a
rambling idiot trying to help out :-)

...I'd bring the big one, just cuz big is cool! :-) But if you want it on the
main tables, you may have to scrunch it down a bit :-)
