Words are inadequate

There was a point where the chair said on the staff list (paraphrased) that this was the way he was going to do things and that if the club disagreed strongly enough they could fire him.

Well, that's pretty much what he said. In part, because there's a point where leadership decisions actually need to be made, and waffling needs to stop. I distinctly remember telling John he should say something to that effect (if you don't like it, replace me) last fall or so. Unfortunately, while I'm not terribly thrilled with how things are going, I don't think there's anyone else who's able and willing (the latter of those being the real problem) to do a better job, so here we are.

I think that if people stop trying to compare this to past TCons (hard, I know, since it's being called, well, TCon), it'll go off much better. Yes, far, far, far from perfect, but there's still plenty of capacity for fun to be had.
