Love the idea. From the FAQ section on the website:

> Organizers can keep a portion of sign-up or event fees

Isn't this a given? Don't event organisers expect to keep the entire sign-up fee for themselves when they host an event? The website banner reads:

> Build an IRL community. Get paid for it.

I was under the impression that onthe.town will pay the organisers from their own pocket for organising the event, but that does not seem to be true.
