Occams Razor

I have checked the box that says I would like to pay $25 for the meal plan. I am reasonably certain I did this last time, too, but somehow my name didn't end up on the list of people who were buying the meal plan.

It wasn't a big deal; the staff took my word that I paid at the door, and I got fed. However, I wanted to make you guys aware of this in case there's some kind of system glitch that's keeping you from getting an accurate head count.

I was told that if you do not prepay for the Meal Plan, your name does not end up on the list.

As long as the kitchen staff knows that they're going to have to feed more people than the ones on the list, it's all good!

That was the situation last event, but due to the confusion last time:

[quote="Jacob"]Food Part 2. YOU MUST SIGN UP FOR THE MEAL PLAN FOR THE WEEKEND AHEAD OF TIME IF YOU WANT IN ON IT. I believe our food service peeps are going to try to offer random a la cart stuff as well (and we're hoping to get a menu up ahead of the event), and you can still pay at the door, but I've been told in no uncertain terms that we need an accurate headcount to ensure enough rations are acquired.[/quote]

Basically this time, if you check the box you're on the list. You can pay at the door if you're on the list, but you can't get on the list at the door. This will allow the chefs to bring the correct amount of food and not need to worry about running off-site to get more because the list doubled at check-in

Awesomesauce. Thanks for the confirmation, Deeg.

Great questions, cuz it beats me to the punch!

Is there a preference on GM side for pre-pay? As in, ya'll want some money in hand before the event? Or, does that just muck up the works (with cash-colllection being the preferred method)?

I prepaid my meal plan for all of the events, because it was just easier to dole out the extra $100 at that time. Do you all have a record of that somewhere? (I am assuming but double checking just in case)

Yes, we do have a record of that.

I think during closing announcements that it was mentioned the food guru guy of awesome has a particular email we can send inquiries to?

I have a question to ask him. (Or if he has a profile I can IM)

Yes, you can reach the Grillmaster at the cryptic and easy to forget address of "food@occamsrazorlarp.com"
