I present to you...

PAX 2008 Early Bird Pre-Reg!!!

The PAX 2008 site will go live on Monday, but you guys get first crack at Pre-Reg. Go nuts.

Also, Hotel info will be released shortly, so I'd hold off on registering for hotels until we get you the cheap-o rate.

What's the deadline for early-bird pre-reg? And there's no limit to them, right?

Problem:

It only lets me select the physical ticket thing. While the will call thing is great, it will only let me select Canadia and United States as a shipping adress. I don't live in either country.

I am cry :'(

Those outside of North America are will-call only. Last year we had issues with passes just not getting to other continents in time, despite us sending them 45 days in advance.

...For it to cost more? This is the ground floor. If you don't get on here, it'll only get more "expensive" (which I put in quotes because PAX prices day-of are still a lot less than for other conventions with less to offer).

hmm - i'm not sure what this 1.99 fee is you're referring to. It's not supposed to be there. Fehlauer may pop in here to answer this question.

Cost more? I don't care. It's not like PAX is an incredibly expensive event. Plus, any opportunity I have to throw my money at G&T is an opportunity I'll take, thanks.

I'm an irrational human being, I know.

With such sentiment as that, I must say my respect for you is greatly increased.

We're using a new ticketing system: Brown Paper Tickets. These guys are a scrappy local outfit that's a bit more in tune with PAX. Great group of folks that support a lot of indie events and musicians here in Seattle.

I set up the ticketing pipeline, and while doing so missed the toggle that indicates who pays the Brown Paper Ticket service fee. It's fixed now, and we'll figure out a way to refund those that were overcharged.

Sorry about that!

Shoot. If Child's Play is added to the list, can I change who I chose to contribute to? I think at the moment it's the musicians.
