Just in case there was any question, we have absolute trust in our volunteers and have had no instances of door sitter cheating (a tiny minority of dancers on the other hand... but I digress). The impetus for my original investigation is solely operational efficiency - making it easier for our volunteers and ourselves as organizers. It would be nice to actually be able to dance at our own dances more often. :)

We operate on a basis of trust with our door-sitters and the mix of adult/youth varies during the year in unsurprising ways -- we just don't feel like we need to capture that information.

4. Any system can be compromised by crooked door-sitter. They can wink at their friends and wave them in for no fee. They could pocket some money and not click the tally counter or put a tick-mark on the paper. Anything!
