Call it a "Thank you" from the 6d and above crowd for helping out. I know two folks already willing. I'd like to make a tradition out of this, where TD's are offered something for their not insubstantial time commitment. As far as I can tell, since money is off the table, the only thing the strong players have to offer is their own time. |
