Script For Tracking Loki Orders

[Derek A. Neighbors]

I hacked something together REAL quick.  It should allow you to register
(name and email).  Then select the games you would be willing to
purchase.  You can then log back in and change your mind later.

I will add to the script tomorrow, the counts for all of plug and how
'close' we are on certain titles as well as a report for plug.

A few ideas that came to mind on this.

a. do you want to give members the full discount
  1. you could give a significant discount and then when 9 of a title
are ordered you buy 10.  the diff in price from not doing full discount
would cover the cost of the 10th title.  This title could then be a
'door' prize.
  2. you could give significant discount, but keep a small portion to
apply to the general fund of the NPO
  3. you could give full discount and make everyone pleased as punch

 b. Do you maintain a list of LUG members?
  1. It woudl be nice so you could do mailers for tradeshows, speakers
etc.
  2. It helps find long lost people when necessary. :)
  3. I would gladly write you something in GNUe
  4. It would be cool exercise for me to 
    a. write the database in gnue
    b. print some member cards from it (with barcode)
    c. have cuecat setup to read barcode so members could 'swipe' card
when attending LUGs instead of signing in. (muhahaha)

 c. Will PLUG have a booth at ITEC?

Enough ranting...
