We can either charge an admission fee of around $1.25 to cover the cost (in the same way that Draft tournaments in CCGs do), or we can soak the cost as part of encouraging the tournament - I'm fairly certain that we'll get more players if we're not charging for it than if we charge even a small fee. <br clear="none"><br clear="none">Also, there's the problem of ownership - if we charge the admission fee, the players clearly get to own their Play-Doh, and some of the attacks in the game can result in two Claydonians getting melded together - it becomes hard to separate them clearly and give people their own Play-Doh afterward (plus, some people may not <i>want</i> to take the Play-Doh once the tournament is over). <br clear="none"></div><div class="yiv4806572103gmail_extra"><br clear="none"><div class="yiv4806572103gmail_quote">On Mon, Oct 20, 2014 at 11:38 AM, Victor B <span dir="ltr"><<a rel="nofollow" shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:fhoenix88@yahoo.com" target="_blank" href="mailto:fhoenix88@yahoo.com">fhoenix88@yahoo.com</a>></span> wrote:<br clear="none"><blockquote class="yiv4806572103gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"><div class="yiv4806572103yqt9586478587" id="yiv4806572103yqt24539"><div><div style="color:#000;background-color:#fff;font-family:HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif;font-size:12px;"><div dir="ltr">Whichever way you feel is best......just realize that if you spend money to provide claydonia for participants it comes from the "Miniatures Games" budget and would have to be approved by Mike James.</div><div dir="ltr"><br clear="none"></div><div dir="ltr"><br clear="none"></div><div dir="ltr">V</div> <div><br clear="none"><br clear="none"></div><div style="display:block;"> <div style="font-family:HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif;font-size:12px;"> <div style="font-family:HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif;font-size:16px;"><div><div class="yiv4806572103h5"> <div dir="ltr"> <font face="Arial"> On Monday, October 20, 2014 9:24 AM, Nekojin <<a rel="nofollow" shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:nekojin@gmail.com" target="_blank" href="mailto:nekojin@gmail.com">nekojin@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br clear="none"> </font> </div> <br clear="none"><br clear="none"> </div></div><div><div><div class="yiv4806572103h5"><div><div dir="ltr"><div>Per a discussion at the end of the meeting, I offered to run a game of Claydonia for miniatures gaming, which will, of course, go on the Kids Track.
