It's my impression that you won't be in charge of Computer Gaming next
year.  If this is the case, or if there is someone who doesn't mind the
"nuisance" of setup and teardown, then it's not your call.  But you're
also suggesting having someone watching over the computer gaming
machines to make sure no one under 18 uses it, which would be far more
of a nuisance.  I don't think that only giving out a password to people
with ID will be effective, but instead just a pain to the first people
who want to play a game.  Don't forget, the alcohol is never left
unattended.  Will the gaming machines be turned off and unplugged when
there is not someone to watch them?
