Alan, I'm afraid I've got to side with Todd on this one.

If you want to go gate-crashing the event, that's really up to you, a decision you need to make for yourself. It's you, and only you, that will pay whatever consequences your actions might bring.

As a member of this forum, I'm not so sure that I care for your cavalier attitude, particularly when you are wanting to identify your tent with this site. Do me a favor, willya? Play the game the way it's meant to be played or leave the X Marks poster at home. The instant you set that poster in your tent, you are going to be perceived as a representative of this site. And to be quite frank, we (as a forum community) don't want or need the brand of negative exposure you are risking with your devil-may-care attitude.

In my not-so-humble opinion, I think you would do well to get yourself a cold glass of water, take a few deep breaths and read what Todd and Panache are saying to you.
