the story goes... ConFusion made a loss. This was the early days of WASFF. We had assumed that the money I used to cover the costs would be returned to me as the convention was being run under the auspices of WASFF. It took a long time to be raised at a WASFF meeting as the then WASFF treasurer managed to lose (misplace) the entire collection of convention receipts etc so there was no way of proving what the expenses of the convention had been. They had the meeting, decided I had no right to the return of my $3000. They then, informally, told me this in such a way that I wasn't even sure what they were saying. Some months later (6 months maybe), after much pushing on my part, I received an official letter. Grant may be able to fill you in on more detail as he was at the WASFF meeting.
Whatever the story maybe, I'm out of pocket for $3000 and have a dislike for the bureaucracy that is WASFF.
