I think the best solution is a combination of first-come/first-served, marked spaces, *and* number limits after a certain time.
Everyone knows, by now, that you have to get there early for a spot. I think they should cone off and separate each area like they started trying to do recently….like that map that was shown…..but after a certain time, any open spots can be taken by whoever shows up first….and that’s where number limits can factor in. Don’t limit numbers based on allocated areas *and* late arrivals. Make the number limits apply only to the spillover areas.
For example, the import lanes….. in January, we had 9 Evos show up, and we all got there pretty early. So it was good that we had that section available. But in April, only 4 or 5 came. In January, our 9 Evos used almost all of the lane that was allocated. But we didn’t try to hold the same number of spots in April because we knew wouldn’t be able to and we knew that those in our group knew the best time to arrive and if they weren’t already there it was their tough luck.
