Renlute and CEE TEE, let me reiterate what's been said earlier. Please don't take the majority of the criticism in this thread personally. Your hard work organizing is completely separate of the issues many of us have towards HF the last couple of years. And some of the differences between this meet and previous ones (organizers, payments, attendees, even old time members aware of the meet) were too easily a sign of that community change. Having been in the hobby since '03, in many ways this meet feels like a first to me, and I suspect others may feel the same. We're just pointing out changes, some we're admittedly sad to see go, and commiserating. As a whole it really doesn't have anything to do with you two. Honestly, best of luck and I hope it's a success.
