1. THE RULE
Which SIGCHI or CHI rule did you meet? Quote it or describe it. For example: a
travel-award criterion, the fee-waiver map, a reviewer qualification bar or
reviewing duty, the accommodation request at registration, site selection, an
in-person-only requirement, or another.




2. WHAT IT REQUIRED
What did the rule ask you to prove, disclose or pay to be counted?




3. WHAT IT DID NOT SEE
What about you or your situation did the rule not see, or get wrong?




4. WHAT HAPPENED
Mark one with an X and say briefly what it took.
[ ] It saw me: it worked as written.
[ ] It contorted me: I met it, at a cost.
[ ] It left me out: I could not meet it.




5. WHAT IT COST
A word or a figure for each is enough; leave blank if none.
Money (fees, fares, what you paid up front or lost):
Time (hours, days, deadlines missed):
Paperwork (forms, letters, evidence, who you had to ask):
Energy (explaining yourself, chasing, worry):
Risk (exposure, being on a list, what could go wrong):


CONSENT
Mark what applies with an X. Cases are read by the organisers and shared among
