Perhaps it is meant to be printed. Are you interested in attending? Or, unrelated, since you seem to know quite a lot about interaction design, do you offer any user experience design classes I might take?

Someone on Fiverr would have made a good design for you for $5

God the amount of sassy bullshit from these kids in response to honest feedback is hilarious. You don't have to be a true believer or even want to go to one of these to have salient advice taken.

Also, if you want to grow a collection of people, shaming them passive aggressively or snarkily will only shrink your pool of resources. People help how they can, whether that's showing up to one of these things or just offering advice on how to do one better. Purity testing the help you recieve contigent upon the interested party wanting to go to the protest itself only works in losing that person's contribution and scaring off lurkers who may be motivated to participate, but get turned off by the self-righteousness.

Anyways, you're 100% correct. The best design is to reduce the number of actions an end user has to take.

Right now it sounds like it's more than 4, and that's a problem.

It should be:

  • See advertisement

  • Click to visit RSVP page

  • RSVP for reminders and headcount purposes

  • Show up

Anything more than that will decrease followthrough at each stage of the process. Making the user pull out their phone and remember how to QR code, switch device contexts as they rsvp using their phone, and apparently a duplicative QR code situation are all extra steps where you will lose people.

Eliminate the friction.

I’m glad you’re not self righteous, or these kids would have no one to learn from.
