"I am a [local] volunteer, but I do not attend", which seems to be missing from the poll

That's an awfully negative attitude for a volunteer.

There is already a volunteer list, and as long as the list of positive responses for attendance is smaller than that list, the organization knows that it can improve.

The poll is only interested in attendance, it isn't interested in those who can't / don't / won't find the time / money / vacation to make it to the event.

Then how do you make the difference between the volunteers who'll go to the event, but don't browse the Polling section, and those who won't go, and do / don't browse it?

(yes, I'm also answering because it keeps the topic visible on vekn.net )

And what about those who can't come and would like to see the poll's results?

Currently, they can expect 23 players to attend.
Since the number of players responding to the poll will not change the date or location of the event, negative responses need not be tracked.

More personal responses can be given in the text replies.
Perhaps something like:
"I am the volunteer from city Xxx and we will bring 10 players and win all the finals" would be more useful.

We've also created an event where people can RSVP to the event. To have an easier time to track how many that acctually are attending the EC. www.facebook.com/events/418502381569414/

If I can get enough $$$ to attend I have no problem in lending a hand.

If its feasible (in terms of $$$) I would love to get back to Helsinki and take a ferry to Stockholm, or take a plane to Goteborg and join the local players in the trip to EC.
