Ahhh yes the joys of running a non-profit $0 event with no cash sponsorship.  Numbers matter so we know what we can afford.  Frag is getting leaner and leaner on budget every day.

Yep, well hopefully we see a rush of people sooner than later, but Fraga light isn't so bad either.

I love the venue but I think being closer to a hotel or mass transit would shore up numbers.

Either that or host CS:S tournaments again *shudder* (j/k of course)

Or one attendee could become an MMA fighter to make up for the down-budgeted funds...

To be the "guy who offers the perfect inspiring words just at the moment when the heroic figure is about to give up", sure!

^ at least you aren't as negligent (if not malicious!) as Mr. Analog -- what's the deal, bro, linking to that vid and NOT including a "KITH" warning for those whose brains are not as full of useless popculture/trivia as me or you? You may have just cost somebody's employer an hour or two of productivity... Did it... "slip [your] mind"?

I tell you what, let's have dinner tonight, Pesto's at 8, I'll bring the video, I'll bring The Godfather. You know that Paul Simon album you've been wanting me to tape? I'll tape it and bring that too AND dinner's on me.

... will do
