How many of you have not gotten your 3 day badge yet?

Would you like to get it before Con so you do not have to wait in that long line Saturday?

What If I told you, I would be releasing them a day early?

Don't touch that Channel!

Stay Tuned!

I pre-ordered my 3-day badge online after Aug 1st, so I think this piques my interest.

miko murphy · « **Reply #5 on:** August 23, 2010, 12:17:23 pm »

I have friends who hasn't pre-reg I think I need to pay attention to this.

Welcome back Boys and Girls,

Are you ready for the next installment of K-con's 3 Day passes?

So here is the word right from the presses, (yes you can quote me on this)

"On Friday Sept 3rd at 6pm, I will be opening a separate line from the Pre-reg check in line, for selling of the remaining 600+ Three Day Badges."

Because of my short supply of staff there may be only one line staffed, by me. Therefore it may take up to 5 minutes per person, If you wish to speed it up, Please print of a copy of the Mail in Registration and have it filled out and ready to go along with the Parental Permission Form (if under 18). This will decrease the wait time to 1 minute per person.

Mail In Reg Form

Parental Permission Form
http://www.kumoricon.org/files/forms/2010/parent_permission_form_2010.pdf

***** Updated Aug 31st *****
Removed "(hard badges)" from the line "600+ three day badges"

Due to the High Volume expected, we can not print hard badges

I hope its not an issue as its been no secret that capping is a real possibility. It would be like forecasting rain then people not bring an umbrella and being mad about getting wet

Cyprus · « **Reply #12 on:** August 24, 2010, 01:25:26 pm »

I would expect that anyone interested in going to Kumoricon would have seen the cap on the front page...one can hope anyway...

****Update******
Plastic badges will not be available friday night, I am sorry but, we will be using paper badges for the remaining 3 day passes.

Karu · « **Reply #17 on:** August 29, 2010, 04:17:25 am »

I was wondering if the pre-sale badges were still $40.

Unfortunately no, the $40 price ended on the 15th.

The remaining 3 day passes will be sold at their full price of $45.00
It is still better and cheaper than waiting in a line each day and purchasing single day passes

1) Anything we need other than the mail-in fourm, $45, and I'd?

Late Owl Convention Registration will open at 6pm, Location TBD.

So will you be at the parking garage entrance on the corner of SW Taylor and SW Broadway selling the rest of the 3 day passes on friday or somewhere else?

Friday Night Pre-Reg Check In will open at 4pm and the line will be located at the parking garage entrance on the corner of SW Taylor and SW Broadway
Late Owl Convention Registration will open at 6pm, Location TBD

i'm confused

I guess just some clarification on where I need to be on friday to register for a weekend pass would be nice

pyronine · « **Reply #25 on:** August 31, 2010, 06:08:47 pm »

Please see the line and location thread for reg locations

i will clarify everything

Saki-the-cat · « **Reply #26 on:** August 31, 2010, 06:23:25 pm »

Wait, where will i be able to get my pass?

pyronine · « **Reply #27 on:** August 31, 2010, 06:31:59 pm »

Ok Here is an update

On Friday I will begin selling the remaining 3 day passes. This is a forum/email notification only event, It is not currently on the main web site. Therefore as of now the line may be short. We may decide to open it up to everyone between now and Friday.

At 6pm and NO EARLIER Please begin lining up at the Hotel's (South) SW Broadway entrance.

Please do not block any doors, walkways, or driveways. We are still moving into the hotel. If this becomes a problem I will be forced to close the line.

Saki-the-cat · « **Reply #28 on:** August 31, 2010, 06:38:59 pm »

So do i need to send in a form to be able to get the pass, or will i be able to give my already filled out form to you there?

Jamiche · « **Reply #29 on:** August 31, 2010, 06:39:59 pm »

You will turn in your already filled out form there. Don't send anything in now.

Saki-the-cat · « **Reply #30 on:** August 31, 2010, 06:55:58 pm »

Alright then, thank you ^^

pyronine · « **Reply #31 on:** August 31, 2010, 09:00:54 pm »

Due to the High volume expected, (Hard Plastic) 3 day passes will not be issued, instead we will have a 3 day paper badge.
Our Badge printers can not print at the speeds we will be taking registrations.

Sorry for any confusion

it makes sense, this will save people so much time waiting in line

Agent47 · « **Reply #33 on:** September 01, 2010, 03:27:25 pm »

This is a nice feature.

Being that I didn't pre-reg this year, and whether I attend or not will probably be a last minute decision, this will be a good option for Friday, should I decide for sure.

Plus, Friday pre-sales seemed to do pretty well last year, so I'm sure it'll work fairly well this year.

If I'm not able to sign this and or go on friday, will I still be able to get my 3 day badge on Saturday?

armosknight · « **Reply #35 on:** September 02, 2010, 05:18:36 pm »

Does anyone know what the payment options will be for at-the-door registration? I know cash is always an option but are credit cards as well? Credit is always so much lighter on the wallet.

Cyprus · « **Reply #36 on:** September 02, 2010, 06:13:37 pm »

Bring cash...best idea.

Read the registration page on the web site. All of these are answered there.

Cash, check, money order. No credit cards.

Yes, if you pre-registered, you can check in any time in the weekend (that the registration desk is open). Even if at-the-door badges sell out, pre-registered spots are reserved.

Sakurakisser · « **Reply #38 on:** September 02, 2010, 08:06:00 pm »

Okay, so I am having a brain fart but is the location for buying the 3daypass the same location for those getting the prereg badges? it says TBD.. but i cant think of what that would be for some reason.. i think it is because of work.. lol. ~~is the registration form the same as the mail-in? so i can print it out here at home?~~ duh, front page.

South entrance of the hotel (Broadway). Don't start lining up until 6 pm, and make sure not to block any passageways.

And thank you for getting the form printed and filled out ahead of time.
