Brett, can you still take the registration money? I'll set up PayPal payments, so I'll need your PayPal email. And your address for the checks people.

It would be nice, and possibly ward off some critics if we announce a schedule of events at the same time as registration... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Shouldn't be a problem, although there could be some changes in my career coming up soon so hopefully that wont get in the way.
We need to be very, very clear in what they need to put in their payment message and how they pay for it. I know paypal is a pain the in ass when it comes to fees. I'm not sure how we want to address that. I created a paypal for this, money can be sent to 2010WCR@gmail.com. The same address can be given out for any questions people need to email. Should I give a weekly update of the people I have received money from? Should this be private or public? I'll have to look into what to do about the home address. I don't feel comfortable posting it in a public forum like this. |

According to their website, its a flat 3.5%..however, I have read that if the money is sent as a "gift", the fee's are waived but I haven't been able to confirm that.
Now for my personal fee for collecting the funds, I would be willing to lower it only 10% of the total, but you must act now, supplies are running out! |

The difference between gift and just sending money is that the sender pays the fees.

Ok, I am now confirmed with paypal...so I can start accepting money.
I will post soon in the garage telling people where to send the money, but I wanted to lock down cost, etc. This is what I have so far: Cost will be $50 for each person with a 914 and ??? for guests. Paypal will take 3.5% for each payment so do we want to make it $55 or just eat the cost? I will also accept checks but people will have to PM for the address, I don't feel comfortable posting my address in the forum. This fee will include a nametag for each forum member, BBQ dinner Friday(?) night, a professional driving route, unlimited tech session viewing and a raffle ticket(?). Feel free to answer the question marks as I'm not sure about some details. I will post a weekly update of funds here and keep an attendance list in the garage thread. I also created the email address 2010WCR@gmail.com so people can email questions, etc. I will post questions I can't answer in this forum. Anything else I need to cover? |

Brett,
It sounds to me like you have the money collection covered. I would suggest we just eat the PayPal fee since it seems to me the we have our costs way down over all. Is there anything else we are waiting on before we open reg? Jim |

Is there anything else we are waiting on before we open reg? Jim Just a schedule for the event. We have to put at least a tentative event plan out there or we will get a lot more "what do I get for my money" crap... I cite post #263 as an example in the WCR update thread. Simple request really. He wants to know what he is paying for so he knows IF he should bring his wife. We need to polish that event schedule I put together or rewrite it but something needs to go out with the opening of registration... We need to all get together or do a phone conference. This is one of the problems with this management model. It takes longer to get things done when authority is spread. We could use a dictator right now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

The website for signups is ready for checking. Please look, try it out (don't click through to pay), and let me know if I missed any spelling/facts/etc.
http://www.914world.com/wcr_signup.php I agree it's best to eat the PayPal fees. The Gift setup has restrictions and can be cut-off by PayPal unexpectedly. I'm working on the schedule now... |

Mark...the only thing I see wrong with that link is if the person doesn't have any dietary requests and leaves it blank, it will come up with an error and doesn't say what it is (it happened to me)...if they simply put "None" in that box, it works fine

Brett, I couldn't replicate the problem. Can you take a picture of the error if you can get it to do it again. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

Looks awesome! I'm using FF 3.6 on Mac OS X (Snow Kitty) and I can't select a number of guests from the drop down box. It drops down, but offers "0" as the only selection.
What happens if someone completes the registration form but doesn't follow through and actually pay? Who's keeping track of that info and when is the latest date that payment can be sent? Thanks and great job! Sorry I haven't been of more help. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) |

That form fills up a database. I can then go in and see who's signed up and who's paid. I guess I'll need to coordinate that list with Brett to keep track of who's paid.

I dont know how to see who has signed up, however I will update the "Paid" list here as they roll in. Hopefully that form will fill out peoples name as they pay since I dont know email addresses.
