Whatever it is, it should be easily affordable. It MUST NOT give anyone
second thoughts about attending.

To quote an improper analogy, if you have a product, you can price it
any way you like and argue that the price is fair, but if the customer
doesn't want to buy, then you are wrong, not him.

Like several others, I was sounded out by the ICCA on this issue. I
argued strongly for a professional entry fee that won't scare anyone
away, even if this means being able to give less support to amateur
entries (this includes myself).

The ICCA must get its priorities right.
