## Something wrong here?

Locals change referral procedure without announcing it, and this page is only as good as its last check. If you know this is out of date, tell us at [hello@dontdropbook.com](mailto:hello@dontdropbook.com) and we will fix it the same day. Corrections from members are how this dataset stays honest.
