[Deptheads] Demographics Sheets

[Evil5757 at aol.com]

As far as descriptions, I still believe that EVERY event needs to have a  
description on it. Tournaments need formats and point values (where 
applicable)  and events need to give the reader a sense of what the game is about to 
spark  their interest. We are getting better, but there are almost 150 
events (almost  100 in boardgames alone) that have no description.
 
As for the sheets, if it is simple cut and paste not needing time I would  
include the description - but it is not necessary.

Hi  Everyone,

I've reviewed the discussion about this topic from just after  Gateway. 
There was a lot of discussion of pros and cons, but not much in the  form of 
actual questions.

I've tweaked some of the sheets to produce a  more uniform look and 
hopefully help make the process easier for you, payouts  and whomever ends up doing 
the annual awards. I only have real sheets from  Monday of the con for 
RPGs, and a blank and the file merge template for  boardgames, so bare with me 
on this.

The boardgame post-game sheet is  basically what I'd expect the 
collectibles and video games sheets would look  like, unless I'm given more information.
The RPG sheet is basically what  I'd expect the LARP sheets to look like 
and possibly Miniatures, which brings  me to an important question. For RPGs 
and Miniatures, it seems most events  have no winners, but the few that do, 
need to be handled. How are we handling  these events currently? And, this 
Orccon, we have a LARP tournament, how is  that being handled? [I'm referring 
to our paperwork, not outside  sponsorship.]

The one exception to the format would be a longer sign-up  list for the 
LARPs. Would LARPs have alts? Would LARPs need the list to  continue on the 
back?

So, what this comes down to...
Do you like the  new formats?
Do you have any suggestions for questions to put on these  sheets? Please 
be specific as to whether it's for all depts or which. Yes, no,  or numeric 
answers are best, but I want to hear what inquiring minds would  like to know?

I'm working on the sign-up sheets next. Do miniatures  sign-up sheets 
have/need the description on them like RPGs?

Also, how  does each dept generate the sign-up sheets? I appear to have the 
data for  boardgames. Not sure about the rest of you. Just because you've 
mentioned it  to me, doesn't mean I remember. I'm trying to make this a 
smooth  modification.

There is also the possibility of a questionaire, and/or  suggestions form 
to be available at each dept and registration. These are  obviously 
voluntary, but we really should offer specific ways for people to  comment on things. 
The Feedback Forum only works for those who are willing and  able to 
attend. Again, what  questions?

Tanya
