It's always better if more people come, because the more people come, show their stuff, or just view and vote, makes the event more fun. I get between 10-20 ppl usually, but last weekend I got 30 ppl!
Wow! First of all, that's cool! (And thanks to everyone for coming!)
The show went fine, the ppl. enjoyed it, and so did I! But I wonder how bigger it can grow...
30 ppl audience + 1 host + 3 neighbours in the sim = 34 people. I know that a 'normal', mainland sim can only hold about 40 ppl.. so we're kinda approaching the limit. I have no idea what will happen then... And I hope that since I crash about 2 times per event, I'll be able to get back to host

But seriously... what are the options? I'm funding this all from my money -- and the prizes mainly from donors - thanks!
The land already costs me about 25 USD/month, but that's okay, because I have other stuff on the land too, my shop, and I kinda get some cross-financing from my shop. Of course, I also use the fact that my shop is in visible distance from the event place, though... I don't propagate my shop or products on the event. I don't do it for that.
But I possibly wouldn't be able to afford to pay +25 USD/month, and it would be meaningless, too... So here I am, thinking... Any ideas?

(PS: And I don't currently receive FFRC funding because I would rather NOT display the rotating banner thing, because IMHO it looks too ugly and out of place, because of the diverse, not harmonizing banners.)
