Those look fancytastic. I really like the background and different colors for ages. *thumbs up*

AnimeMatrix · « **Reply #51 on:** February 19, 2008, 05:51:14 pm »

Ohhh- the badges look so awsome! Great job!

But it won't look as awsome as staff badges

.

AzuKyo · « **Reply #52 on:** February 19, 2008, 05:58:06 pm »

Those look really awesome.

Is there any info on what Panelist badges will look like?

Evaldas · « **Reply #53 on:** February 20, 2008, 07:54:34 am »

The panelist badges will look similar to the what you see here (of course with some changes). But I can't say too much since I haven't design them quite yet. Don't worry, it will be filled with just as much awesomeness as the rest.

Invader spleen · « **Reply #54 on:** February 20, 2008, 03:51:14 pm »

Wow I was gone a while. XD Those look amazing! I can't wait to get mine. Thanks guys!

systemdown · « **Reply #55 on:** February 20, 2008, 09:20:46 pm »

I don't know if these are any better then what you have already seen. But These are some low rez sample images.

Mei Long · « **Reply #56 on:** February 20, 2008, 09:27:03 pm »

Thanks all who posted pictures! The cloud design in the background is really cute and the different colors are nice! ^^ I like how there are different badges for child and minor.

Invader spleen · « **Reply #57 on:** February 22, 2008, 03:48:21 pm »

Yeah. But the green for the minors reminds me of split pea soup and the cloud design makes it even more so. XD

The badges look really nice! I can't wait to see mine personally.

gothicadam · « **Reply #61 on:** February 27, 2008, 08:31:43 am »

The Badges look good, when are we gonna get them?

Nanao_chan · « **Reply #62 on:** February 27, 2008, 05:51:20 pm »

Excellent layout this year! Can't wait to get mine. I registered back in December and I'm crossing my fingers it gets here soon. Any word on when they will finish printing Tier 1's badges?

Invader spleen · « **Reply #63 on:** February 27, 2008, 06:55:17 pm »

My guess is tier one is done printing, and soon they're gonna be sent out... I dunno though. That's why I started the thread. XD But I hope soon!!! I registered in December too.

gothicadam · « **Reply #64 on:** February 28, 2008, 04:40:24 am »

I think i registered in November or December

Invader spleen · « **Reply #65 on:** March 17, 2008, 11:13:11 pm »

Soo... what's the latest news?

TomtheFanboy · « **Reply #66 on:** March 17, 2008, 11:26:18 pm »

They didn't mention it on camera at the meeting but they shook the box of badges and said they'd be maybe be mailed out by the end of the week. It wasn't an official statement though so who really knows. $:-\$

Penumbra Shade · « **Reply #67 on:** March 18, 2008, 10:57:30 am »

Eh. It would certainly be snazzy and exciting to get the badges soon...but I personally am in no rush.

*Shrug*

Still, 'twould be delightful indeed if they were sent off sooner then later, o'course....

laurifer · « **Reply #68 on:** March 18, 2008, 03:58:59 pm »

I wouldn't mind getting them later...just means I have less time to lose it

totemo_oishii · « **Reply #69 on:** March 18, 2008, 04:21:14 pm »

I've been keeping mine in a safe place.

XD...last year both my sister and I were in the first bracket of the pre-registered, so we got them fairly early--but she can be pretty bad at keeping track o' things so she had me keep it in my wallet for her...for four months or so.

Invader spleen · « **Reply #71 on:** March 18, 2008, 08:04:27 pm »

I still have mine from last year, which is amazing that I know where it is considering we moved. XD I dunno how, it's a miracle... but I tend not to move things and my sister is anxious so I a, pretty psyched about getting them.

superjaz · « **Reply #72 on:** March 18, 2008, 08:21:25 pm »

last year i was the first ofical person to lose my badge but i found it

Invader spleen · « **Reply #73 on:** March 18, 2008, 08:38:54 pm »

was it a scar experience? XP

superjaz · « **Reply #74 on:** March 19, 2008, 04:17:31 pm »

yeah it had fallen from the shelf onto my books and it was in one of my school books, i almost sold it back to the school with the book

totemo_oishii · « **Reply #75 on:** March 19, 2008, 05:07:43 pm »

laurifer and I helped hand out swag bags and lanyards last year. I kept saying the usual "keep visible at all times" etc so fast I got my words all jumbled up!

Sugarlat · « **Reply #76 on:** March 19, 2008, 07:43:37 pm »

They mentioned at the Meeting the've been printed out already. I can't wait until they send it!

laurifer · « **Reply #77 on:** March 19, 2008, 07:54:29 pm »

I'd totally do that again...now that I know what I'm suppose to say and do haha

Sugarlat · « **Reply #78 on:** March 19, 2008, 07:59:17 pm »

That would suck...to be honest...It seems fun but at Megacon it was sooo crowded that we waited 1 hour for our badges....

Invader spleen · « **Reply #79 on:** March 19, 2008, 08:00:35 pm »

Yikes. That's a long time... I waited about an hour to get mine last year. It was rally cold out but I was so excited I sisn't care. XD Plus my dad made coffee and gave us donuts.

totemo_oishii · « **Reply #80 on:** March 19, 2008, 08:04:35 pm »

Kcon 06, I waited 3 hours in line... uwaa

Invader spleen · « **Reply #81 on:** March 19, 2008, 08:05:40 pm »

My older sister went to that. She said in line for the cosplay contest everyone started shouting (eventually) "We want pie!" XD

Sugarlat · « **Reply #82 on:** March 19, 2008, 08:06:34 pm »

o.O I didn't go cause I missed it. I found out there was on the night before!!!

Kotoumi · « **Reply #83 on:** March 19, 2008, 08:14:37 pm »

Getting a badge would be one of the best birthday presents ever.

...Especially considering I'll be on an airplane for half the day. ;-;
(I'm 17 on Monday!)

Sugarlat · « **Reply #84 on:** March 19, 2008, 08:21:30 pm »

Happy [Early] birthday!

Nanao_chan · « **Reply #85 on:** March 20, 2008, 10:20:55 am »

I found out last year that the best way to get in with no problem is to always pre-register and haul yourself to the con hotel the night before and pick up your badge rather than wait in line the next morning. I can't wait for our badges to be mailed out, concidering I've been waiting for about 4 months now >.<

Invader spleen · « **Reply #86 on:** March 20, 2008, 07:55:54 pm »

Yeah. I really hope I can get a hotel room!!! XD But I dunno if I can. lol The line was interesting... watching cosplayers try to waste time is interesting.

You should look into booking a room now, as they go unbelievably quick. I had to be certain I had the type of room I wanted for the time I wanted, so I booked like two months ago. Always good to be on the safe side.

That's just it, you don't need the mone ywhen you book it, you only need money when you arrive at the hotel during the con. All you need is someone with a credit card (or yours if you have one) to book a room. No money required.

1 hour? That's it? o.0 Wow....I think I had to wait.....4 hours. And that's because we decided to go for one day, last minute, no cosplay.

Nanao_chan · « **Reply #92 on:** March 26, 2008, 12:01:30 am »

When booking your room, make sure to split the cost XP Everyone saves money and has a place to stay ^.^
I booked my two rooms about a month and a half ago, so I'm wondering how many rooms are left at this point.

Invader spleen · « **Reply #93 on:** March 27, 2008, 01:25:29 pm »

I hope there is enough. XP My sister split with 7 people I think once, so it wasn't terribly bad. XD

superjaz · « **Reply #94 on:** March 30, 2008, 09:44:40 pm »

Ii know a great way to get you badge as soon as possible!!!
we have events called envelope stuffing (time place yet to be decided) we get together maybe listen to japanese music in background and stuff envelops, that are sent out to happy otakus everywhere
so keep ears perked for you chance to become a oofficial kumoricon volunteer

as I belive I have said before, no you are not too young so no using that as an excuse

tho unless you mean your parents wouldn't allow to go out by your self

you just can't be staff, and there is a differnce between staff and volunteer, in short:
staff sign up for a particular department and have specific responsibilities
volunteers chip in when they can and where they want to

Sugarlat · « **Reply #97 on:** March 31, 2008, 10:54:19 pm »

Ah, at the meeting they said badges are printing out smoothly! Going great and they should be out soon!

TomtheFanboy · « **Reply #99 on:** April 02, 2008, 07:44:47 am »

Difference between being staff and being a volunteer is $40.
Trust me, no matter what else you hear about that's the only real difference.
