... and I don't think events like Joe Nall, Scale Masters events etc. support your "lack of fun" argument.....
....ok Jim, you lost me there?

"Success draws more new participants which begins to complicate things and sometimes begins to take the fun out of bothering to put it on."

Just a statement based on some local experience. We're only looking for ways to ease organizer's burden and help keep things fun for them as well. Obviously not an issue at event like Joe Nall where the organizers most likely enjoy all the hubbub of organization. (not to mention, the ability to put much of the menial chores on payroll) Slightly different league. I doubt Pat Hartness dumps the biffies at Joe Nall.
