If other people would offer to assist it would make a world of a difference. Have a look at the Dublin Meet thread and see how many people indicated that they were interested. I sent a large number of PMs to check if people were going to attend that event and am still waiting to hear from some people. At the heels of the hunt there were six of us in Dublin and there should have been a lot more. Just because one person drops out does not prevent others from meeting and having a great day.
