I agree. This removes the financial burden.
Take how much money you need to raise to get to nats/other regional.
Divide over team members going
Add Some to make it even
And then you have the amount each person brings!
So if you are down 2000
15 people are going
120 per person
add 30 to make it even
150 per person
not only are you solved, but then you have 1000 to trow around incase something breaks
