If one were less inclined to type that could be written as:

my ( $player, 
     $playerphone, 
     $entry, 
     $message, 
     $memberid, 
     $email, 
     $partner, 
     $partnerphone, 
     $section, 
     $level, 
     $street, 
     $city, 
     $state, 
     $zip, 
     $party, 
     $guests ) = ('') x 16;

But I don't think that will necessarily help because all of these variables are being assigned to in the next few lines.

If one were truly less inclined to type, one could cut and paste :)

I've updated my post with your latter observation, which was my original intent.

... all my parameters are working fine.

In that case, I'm afraid you'll have to split up the long heredoc string into pieces to track down which part of it has the problem.
