Sponsor agrees to pay the administrative and arbitrator's fees in order to conduct the arbitration (but specifically excluding any travel or other costs of entrant to attend the arbitration hearing). Either party may, notwithstanding this provision, bring qualifying claims in small claims court.

[MOU1] Can we make them have to claim by same day? Or is this for the full duration fo the weekend?
[AS2] We would not require them to be present. The distance between the events, the effort and missed-opportunities at the conference that would be required to get there for each drawing, and the overall span of time between the drawings would be overly burdensome.
[AS3] Updated for claim by EOD at 6 at Headquarters.
