I am a bit confused, especially when considering the Expo thread.
Why do the badges need to be scanned for the shirts?
It makes the process take longer. People are to be trusted to not abuse the Expo pass. which involves more money, yet it is said that the badge needs to be scanned for the shirts to ensure that people don't take more than one shirt, well, at least until before Noon on Sunday when they can take as many as they want as we don't want to store them or give them out in later years or other such uses.
The scanning of the badges for the shirts was not done until after Scale 13x. What changed to no longer trust people with respect to the shirts by adding this additional security step?
Are the badges scanned to ensure that people don't take more than one bag or coffee cup?
