I'm curious to know how attendance of all 200 (or only the 120-140)
to the same minimum 6-7 events and non-attendance to the remaining
events could be handled? If the majority loved GGF say, lived close,
and did not care for other sites something skewed could happen.
If enough people were turned away from events that were full with the
pre-registered entrants wouldn't they be likely to not even try to
enter the events that had few pre-registered participants show up?
Could this lead to events where the site fee wasn't covered?
