People have said that eventually the folks who aren't playing our game will come around. I think that's the case when you get one or two goobers at a typical event, & the chatelaine pulls them aside to acculturate them-either they'll figure out what our game is & play it, or they'll find someplace else to go, because the rest of us won't appreciate them being rude to the chatelaine. At Pennsic, though, there's hundreds of goobers, & that's just too many for our normal method of acculturation. They go back home, tell others about what they did, & what might've been 300 becomes 500, &c.. Also, Pennsic is when a lot of SCAdians let their hair down, so some of the gooberism is our own people, you might say.
