we didn't. if you booked a WDC subsideized package you had to pay even more for meaningless crap that Walt thinks i can't live without.

Only $30 from the larger $75, however, went toward the Team Party. The rest subsidized other costs. The vBulletin Search engine won't let me search for 'event fee' per se, but I've already broken down the cost of a subsidized package versus that of a unsubsidized package and event fee.
i can't help what they do and don't get from my money. if they only get 30 from everybody's original 75 we still have to pay the 75. if i charged $50 for a crappy shirt i couldn't justify it by saying, well, i only get 25 from it, the rest goes to fund the free coffee in the executive board room.

competition site, remember the fairly large blue tent?

I welcome disagreement. In fact, I probably thrive on it. But, unless you're going to support your diminishing comments with legitimate claims, suggestions, or examples, I would prefer that you keep them out of intelligent discussion.
this has gone way beyond intelligent discussion.

See, isn't debate fun? Gracious professionalism means that we respect differing ideas, opinions, and methods of being. It does not mean that we shut our mouths at the first sign of controversy.
"Gracious Professionalism" once again another overused phrase that has lost all meaning. Yes, debate is fun. however, i have a life. i don't have time to look for meaningless facts while i wait on somebody to respond to a forum argument. i did not shut my mouth. i voiced my opinion, you voiced yours, i voiced mine (and tried to end it), you voiced yours (thus once again calling me out) and so i backed up my opinion with basically things that i have said before. you haven't really produced any new information that should make anybody change their mind. i (sorrowfully) will not be attending nationals this year as my team is an even number and it will be an odd year, so we cannot have this debate again. for those who are there, it becomes a good case of buyer beware...FIRST is a great organization when it comes to the game/recruiting/awards etc etc etc. however, learn to party.
now i will attempt to end this (again) in the immortal words of my mother. "he started it and you end it. be the bigger person" i did and i am.
