First come first serve is fair, but open enrollment into a lottery-based system may be even fairer.
Great suggestion. We talked a lot about ways to improve the sign-up process for the increased demand, but for some reason a lottery system never came up. We'll make sure it gets considered for next time.
We were really hoping that adding a second event this year would help alleviate the pressure, but interest seems to be booming right now. Seems to be a growing pains thing that we will eventually catch up to.
