RSVP Guidelines and Etiquette For Booking A Carnity Drive

[Frederic]

RSVP Limitation

Every drive we organize has a limited RSVP signup:

• Absolute Newbie and Newbie Level Drives: 12 members, 1 drive lead, and supported by 1-2 senior members.
• Fewbie, Fewbie Plus, and Intermediate Drives: 10 members, 1 drive lead, and supported by 1-2 senior members.

Different RSVP levels can be used for specific drives as per the trip lead preference, area, timing, day or night drive, etc..

RSVP etiquette and Closing Times

• Signing up for a drive means you take up a spot on the list, so if you cannot make it, please withdraw your RSVP in time (+ 24 hours prior to the drive), so others can take up that spot.
• The RSVP usually closes a day in advance of the drive, so the drive lead can prepare the convoy list. 
• If the RSVP is full and you wish to join this drive, please mention your name on the drive thread with the request to be added to the waiting list. The Trip lead will keep a chronological overview of the waitlisted members.
• Members who have not RSVP'd for the event will not be accepted on the drive.
• Latecomers will not be accepted. There will be no exceptions.
• Repeated no-show members will have their account suspended for a month.
• Within the waitlist, preference will always be given to members who are waitlisting for their first drive of the weekend. Only when this list is exhausted, the trip lead will add members that waitlisted for their second drive.
