Re: [AGA-Contest] It's almost time!

I don't know if we will get a definitive answer on the
fax/scan issue in time for a June 1 opening -- a definitive
answer might not even be possible ever; it's one of those
law type issues. I think that, until and unless we hear
that we would be significantly worse off by taking fax or
scanned photo releases, we should accept photo releases
that that way. The release is nice to have in hand, but I
believe entry submission implies acceptance of the terms
and conditions of entry.
I would like to accept scanned copies, as well as faxed-in copies. They
are functionally equivalent.
Erik, can the web server accept faxes or do I need to buy a
fax machine for the AGA?
I will try to set something up at work. I cannot spare a second phone
line at home, but we have many analog lines here. Alternatively, if
someone knows of a cheapo "FAX/VOICE" switch, I can probably rig it up.
Probably easiest to do it at work.
Folks, you think Phil can tell the prospective donors that
anything over $xx and they're listed as a supporter on the
contest website. Anything over $xx+y and they're listed as
sponsors, with logos etc. If you come up with a better
marketing tack -- and you probably will -- let's hear it.
We're not looking for a ton of stuff here, just what Erik
has previously listed for the 1st placer and something
honorific for the judges.
I am happy to include the logos of ALL donors, regardless of what they
sent (see first year donors on the site). I think this makes the event
"bigger" in the eyes of the participants.
Ricky the Artmeister, did Erik get the logo? If not, can
you steal some time somewhere?
He is waiting on me to photograph a bunch of last years' mail spread out
on a "table". After three days of not even having a cleared table, I have
resigned myself to not being able to do this at home, and am going to
attempt this at work today.
I suggest that any paper, checks, money orders, photo
releases from the Luddites, be directed to me -- a black
box approach for entrants. Erik, do we get many photos by
mail. If so, to keep things simple, I suggest they go to
the same address and I'll be repsonsible for
forwarding/distributing them.
I'm OK continuing to do this part. It's not a big deal. I've got a
volunteer locally who has offered to load-balance the technical parts when
it comes time. This way we can also keep the address the same as previous
years.
We don't announce the judges ahead of time, right? So we
still have time to nail those down if they aren't nailed
down already -- guess we shouldn't talk about *nailing
down* judges until after the judging ;-)
Right.
