In the interests of a fully informed electorate:
Crossroads is immediately after the althing. Does a vote to postpone become functionally identical to "no" or, in the event that it is postponed, will the funds be used to reimburse the organizers?

Related: what is the current status of the treasury? What proportion of our funds are we committing?

I asked that in the previous thread and Gale came back with a reply of a total of $1,877.08. So we're being asked to donate a smidgen over 11% of our total funds if my math is correct.

Very important matter of dues paid members: Make sure you provide a list of dues paid members to the PM along with your votes. Quorum rules and financial reporting type things. Dues paid votes count per corpora. - steps off soapbox -

Are the kingdoms of the other groups donating anything to the event?

I do not believe so, so this is a chance for Westmarch to be better.

Was there a request made to the other Kingdoms that was refused or is Westmarch the only Kingdom where funds were requested?

I do not know. I do know that they asked WM so either we are their last hope or their favorite, either one is kinda endearing.

High Oasis does not have a good relationship with their kingdom and so they didn't ask. Terra De Votum requested things rather than money from their kingdom.

Is this the first time we've failed to achieve quorum on an allthing?

As a kingdom or as Westmarch in any form? There were many corpora amendments in the past which failed to reach quorum. As for quorum after becoming a kingdom proper, I don't rightly know.
