Stephan and Lachlan, thank you for thinking about this! I need to make a
decision soon, I really need feedback!

The normal attendees also don't do any fingerprint verification *at the party*.
At home, before the party, they checked their own fingerprint, and generated the
SHA256 checksum for the file they got. At the party, everybody together checks
the SHA256 checksum by simply reading aloud each and every digit.

It is :-)
I wouldn't say my information is detailed actually, I could write a *lot* more
about proper procedure. But I hoped I didn't have to, instead just focussing on
what I wanted to do *differently* from usual.
Cheers,
Peter.
