When you play a scenario or big game, what is most important to you and in what order?

1. Safe, fair and fun game.
2. Amenities (showers, flush tolets, ect.)
3. Price
4. Prize package
5. Field structure
6. High number of players

1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 5, 6, 4, 3.

Did I mention that #1 is far and away the most important? ;)

For some reason, the various large events in my area tend to be stuck on the same weekends, so that you have to pick one or the other. There have been events I wouldn't have minded attending, but another game was on the same weekend. In that case especially, I tend to choose the event that's run by a producer that I know puts on a quality show.

Yeah, I guess it means I don't try as many new things, but on the other hand, I'm not taking a gamble on an unknown situation...

Oh, and I would have added "people I know will be there" as an option, and it would have been #2 in importance.

I probably should have added location, distance from you, too.

1-5-3-2-6-4

Field setup/layout is an important part of safety & fairness.

150 good players is better than 500 cheating dastards.

Prizes? You have maybe a 5% chance of winning a prize, so how important can it be?

1, 5, 3 (I kinda include travel expenses there), 2, 6, 4

If I'm gonna chase a prize...I'll play a tournament. ;)

I'd also add:

7. Interesting/creative storyline

and probably stick that between 5 and 3. :cool:

IMO

1. Safe, fair and fun game.
5. Field structure (Terrain ! and theme fields)
6. High number of players (Note: Excessive # of players is as bad as too few)
3. Price
2. Amenities (showers, flush tolets, ect.)
4. Prize package
