[DL] Food at the tables and other stuff

["Michael Maguire" <mikejmaguire@hotmail.com>]

Out group tends to follow a "those that can pay, do" policy, which generally 
works out fairly well for everyone.  We've never had any real problems with 
free loaders or anything, since we all try to pitch in whenever possible 
(and those that can't usually feel guilty and partake only minimally of 
pizza and snacks).  The only regular exception is beverages, which freqently 
are supplied by the host of the game.

As for the free Player's Guides, I think that's a great idea...  I know in 
most games, everyone in our group likes to have their own copy of the 
Player's Guide (and those who don't usually borrow someone else's until the 
rest of us would like them to have their own copy :-D).  A free Player's 
Guide gives them more incentive to either obtain books they need for the 
games they run (since around half of us GM one game or another) or buy other 
books that they might want (for instance, if they have a favorite character 
type they can buy the sourcebook for it).

It's the sourcebooks going out of print that I'm not as keen on - I'd have 
loved to have snagged Law Dogs, but an electronic copy of a sourcebook isn't 
much help to me, since we generally play elsewhere (and all my other stuff 
thus far is in bound format).
