The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
Yep just got it today in the mail. It came in with just the badge and an info page which details much about jackals, something i didn't know showed up last year.
I guess it's a step up from the massive amounts of ads they packaged with it last year.

Also got my Omegathon punch card that comes with the badge, something i didn't get last year as i only attended it for 1 day.
Hmmm, I only live about 30 minutes from Seattle. In any case, it will eventually come, I'm not really ANTICIPATING the arrival of my badge. Especially if it has cooties on it.
I'm guessing you get the whole thing filled out and drop it off for a drawing, probably for the chance to be an Omeganaut next year.
On the confirmation page, it says that they won't be mailed out and you'll have to pick them up, but I just got one of mine... I'm guessing that message is for people that ordered theirs at the last minute?

Canadians.
No, before it said if you live outside of the US then you won't get yours mailed. Now it just says that you won't get it mailed, but I just got mine, so that confused me at first.
The fetid stench of jealousy suddenly surrounds me. How the hell will I get this particular stink off my keyboard? And, dear God, what will I do with all these scrambled eggs!?

No badge today... but mail takes a couple days between WA and AZ anyway.
The interesting thing to me is the locations on that Omegathon punchcard... since they haven't announced the games yet, this gives more info for speculation.
Round 1 - PC Area (deathmatch first?!)
Round 2 - Serpent Theater
Round 3 - Serpent Theater
Round 4 - Main Theater (Rock band again? Rock band 2?)
Round 5 - Serpent Theater
Round 6 - Main Theater
Seriously... only 27 days left to train !

I think it would be cool to have Rock Band 2 or GH:WT in there somewhere too, but however it works, i'll be there to see the last round, never have before.
BTW I live in Everett (like 40 mins north of Seattle) and didn't get anything today... Hopefully tomorrow!

Definitely still waiting on the East Coast... If they were all sent at once (although I don't think they were) then I'd expect mine somewhere between Wednesday and Friday next week.
I'm still angered that passes aren't being sent to Canadians.
Is the will call line pretty big? I don't want to miss something.
If you go and look at the "Questions for International Travellers about Will-Call", it has a lot of info. Most importantly, you can pick up your pass on Thursday night if you want. Also, they're expecting a lot more will-calls (last year was a lot of surprise traffic due to the mail system) so it's going to have more people around than last year.
That having been said, I only waiting in line for about a half hour at will-call last year, and that was about 2 hours before PAX even opened, so yah...it's not a huge deal.
There is no way in hell they would repeat a game for the Omegathon, so Halo 3 is completely out.
Minesweeper would be hilarious though, if done right (intermediate, set some overarching time like 15 min, and then the challenge would be to achieve the shortest won game out of however many you can play in 15 min).

They may as well make them knit socks because even that would be better than mine sweeper
It's better than solitaire, and it's one hell of a level playing field because everybody in the universe has had the opportunity to play it or alternative OS clone of it.

And also, the envelope says July 31st on it, so... yeah. I wonder where my other three are that I ordered..
I got that letter, but there wasn't any badge with it!!
Should I be worried? '-'

I approve of this.
Except the 2 round 4s.
I don't approve that.
