Possible solution: create a mark/token (eg. a ticket made of hard
plastic) and give it to few people (2..4) that are allowed to accept
the money. If the people do not have the shift or have to leave, they
have to make sure that they teach some of the next shift how to ask for
and accept the money and how to note this down in the donations list.
Wearing this token should not be that complicated since most people had
"neckbands" (?!) (sponsored by Sun or LT-ec),

Precision: Below each poster, attach a sheet of paper with a table of
possible locations / return times and a magnet pointer which is to be
placed near to the entry. IMO sth. like:

M34 project - Mr. Blafasel is...
 - at the booth
 - at the hacking area
 - back at 8:00
 - back at 10:00
 - back at 12:00
 - back at 14:00
 - back at 16:00
 - out for meal
 - ...

Possible solution: create your presentation papers before the LT begins
and let fellow developers proofread it or give you some hints.
