It seems like some people get noticed and get free plays and others might not. One occasion I remember is two years ago there was a call put out for help with tear down in exchange for free plays. Leah stayed to help tear down to the end which made her evening go a lot longer and then no free play ever materialized.

Many responsibilities of the board like all the stuff I do for the unit games/round robin/etc can generally be done at a time that's somewhat convenient. In comparison, we NEED people to stay and when people are tired or have other things going on then it can be a duty that is at a time where we're tired and have other things we should be doing and might also result in spouses having to stay etc. There have been times when it is clear the people who volunteered to stay really didn't want to and either they left and put a burden on everyone else or they stayed and were exhausted and clearly didn't want to be there.

>> A question for all:  perhaps we should consider the possibility of free plays for others who perform services for the unit?  David Taylor comes to mind.  He is compensated for towing the trailer, however he does other things such as lining up Bridgemates and supporting resolution of questions related to task tracker and insurance.  Perhaps there are "regulars" who make and donate homemade items for hospitality?
