Since we will be posting a list of WHO voted for WHICH location, I don't see how this isn't fair, as you will be able to make sure YOUR name is under the correct city you voted for, and that nothing was "fishy".[/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
The problem with having 2 meets is that it completely defeats the purpose of the meet-up. This "International YT Meet-up" began as a way for ALL of YT to get together and meet in person, and if we have 2 separate meet-ups, it would then be an "East Coast YT Meet-up" and "West Coast YT Meet-up" - not a meet-up for everyone as was the intended idea  . |
In theory, I think we all agree that one International YT meet-up would be terrific!
I think this poll is the reality or we wouldn't be having a re-vote!
I would like to throw out there, that just because two meet-ups would be planned, doesn't prevent someone from attending both, if they are able and want to do that.
In all likelihood, mostly west coasters will attend the meet on their side and same for the other coast anyway. The reality is alot of people for a number of reasons can't attend " no matter " where it is! If money and time were no object, I would LOVE to be able to do that!
