And that's done

Badges designed, printed, guillotined, folded, laminated, punched, sorted and packed.

ETA: I should point out that the largest portion of this work was done by [livejournal.com profile] bellinghwoman, who did all the guillotine, folding and punching work.

Right.

The Friday deadline makes sense if you're doing envelope label printing then for the stuffing the following day. A handful of extra badges will take almost no time at all, compared to the ~1300 done yesterday (800 members, and loads of generics for gophers, watch, etc.).

In theory, you could keep membership open almost to the very end if you were prepared to do the main bulk of the envelopes on Saturday, and do any extra by hand. But there's little point in doing so, and you do need to finalise membership some time, just so you have things like complete lists for the voodoo board and the like.

That's my logic, and to be frank the chances of anyone being able to get themselves organised in the remaining week and a bit is "minimal" given the number of "sorry can't come now"'s I've had from the waiting list.
