Most definitely! Preregistration at AMO in Denver seemed to have caused the organizers some grief. It's pretty difficult to plan for things on a large scale when you don't know until the day of the event how many people are actually going to show up.

Two problems that the AMO folks mentioned was the number of folks who didn't preregister, and the number of those who previously agreed to be judges but didn't show up when it came time to judge the cars.

 
Still, AMO did a great job of making sure things went off without a hitch, but (at least with the judges) it seems inconsiderate that people didn't follow through.

Pre-reg. does help in determend the amount of space that you are needing for the show & dinner tickets. A lot of food suppliers request that they have a total at least a week or two before the dinner. Clubs will add a few dinners to the amount of pre-reg. but not to many.

About people that sign up for judging then do not show up and they have a car on the field should have 2 points dedcted from their score in my opinion, but if we did that we would not have anybody signing up to do the judging.
 
I run myself to death out there in Denver verifing that all the cars were judged and we had some judges that had to work 2 or 3 classes of stock & non-stock and some of those classes were really big.
 
So if you coment to judge please do so the more people the faster it gets done and more time those people have to enjoy the show as well.
 
Because I didn't, I was to busy helping out all the judges.
