Once everyone tells me the times they want to host, I print up a schedule of names and times. Then I try to keep the Hosts and Crawlers aware of the times and names of Room Hosts.

So once you get to the hotel, look around for me. I will be the one holding a shoe box full of Crawl Cards, which are like dance cards, that allow you to check off the room hosts you have visited.

Might I suggest a large easel in the lobby of the hotel with the host's names and scheduled times. When each host checks in he/she could fill in his/her room number next to their serving time.

Trying to find a moving/drinking target, i.e. Shelly, is a fairly difficult thing to do. I feel it puts a little too much stress on the crawlers, especially if they're painfully shy like me. (Shut up, Clysdalle.) It takes away from the fun and relaxed atmosphere of such an event.

Although the crawl is now an "official" Oasis event, I've heard that Otto isn't shelling out any money for the organization portion. I'm sure the crawlers would gladly pitch in a few bones for the purchase of an easel and a giant 3M notepad.

Just my two cents.

Oh and I'd like to crawl this year. (If I can find out where the rooms are. :D)
