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.
I wish the pre-reg passes still had special stars on them, even if we don't get the special hour-early entrance with the. It made me feel special. Because pre-registrants ARE special. Special.
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.
God, original Pinball that came with Win95 would be epic win! (unless they've done that already, dono if it was a round in a previous year)
Ugh, I still wonder where my other three badges are. I ordered three together and one separately, and I only got the one.
Ugh, and I wonder where my one is...the fact that I got the letter but not the badge is really scary because what if they make me do will-call? I don't have the time to wait in a half hour line two hours before the convention...

At first I was going to mock you for complaining about will-call, and then my sarcasm meter started going crazy and I realized I needed to read this sentence again.

*is confused*
Mock me because...? Because the line for tickets at the door is longer? I was in that line last year. It's why I ordered them online (and because of the discount...) but I have to be somewhere else all Friday morning.
mock you because I'm a Canadian and full of hate. Just ask Haterot

I live in seattle, and my badge came today. It's currently in a tub of bleach (I am concerned it may have been down an enforcer's pants or maybe gabe's pants)
So I ordered at about noon on the 31st...is my 3 day badge going to be mailed in a second round, or will I have to wait in a line?
I am hoping for a second round...because I want to examine my badge (mostly for possible evidence of breech of pants, but also I want to soak in my first PAX) and that detracts from the goodness that will be happening around me at PAX.

This is weird. If they were shipped out on the same day, and people in Washington got them, then why the hell did I not get mine? I know what address it goes to as well...
I suspect foul play. Im going to track down every nerd in my neighborhood and sue them until I get my PAX badge back...

They didn't ship all badges out the same day, just the first batch. The first batch or two is probably all earlybird, so if you didn't order before April 1, your badges may come later.
Got mine yesterday . . . I live in Bremerton, WA, and registered a month or two after Early Bird closed
I put it in the laptop bag with my BYOC tickets, but it's smaller than they are, falls down into the little pocket . . . hopefully I can remember where it's at when the Big Day rolls around :-/
Let's see... I ordered my passes (self and hubby) on April 3rd, so they may have been in that first batch. Hopefully they were, and I'll get them in the next few days.
Just out of curiousity, has anyone outside of Washington gotten theirs yet? I'm about to reread through to check myself, but if anyone knows off hand before I finish it'd be cool to know.
Q: has anyone gotten the letter but no badge? because my BF (who regestered a month before me) got the letter, but no badge. I know they're sending out a couple different shipments, but does that mean that they're sending badges separtely from letters? (it makes no sense to me)

Hmmmm, idk, Well all i can think of is that he lives outside the U.S.. I also thought he registered after AUG 1st, but you said he reg a month before you.
Maybe, there alot of people out there who are the same as your BF, Maybe we need to start a separate thread for this.

People who get a letter with no badge should probably contact the people at PA. I'm not sure exactly who's department this is though.
I still haven't gotten my other three that were ordered seperately... I did hear a knock at the door around the time the mail usually comes yesterday, though... but I didn't answer it because I couldn't at the moment. Maybe my neighbor has it, but nobody's knocked again since then.

GOOD LUCK, even though you're probably not alone.

While I wouldn't complain not having to see a Halo match, wasn't Double Dash in more than one tournament? I thought I read that someplace...
Double Dash was in 2004/2005 Omegathons at least...I can't remember last year :P

and a bunch of nasty console freeplay managers :P
The more people talk about this the more i get disgusted. :?
Also... soooo much speculation on the rounds now. dear god I hope the ladykiller round isn't first ;.;
Nobody put anything down their pants :P
Can I send it back so this can happen?
Tycho please (he's got dreamy bone structure...).

I know it wasn't in last year's Omegathon, Calling All Cars was the driving round instead.
Edit: Looks like Washington peoples are the only ones that have posted, at least, about getting badges. I guess they'll get here when they get here.
[edit] just checked the mail, and today was an awesome mail day, BLAM!

Hooray! Maybe they should post a sticky or SOMETHING about this.
Don't want to see people without a badge that ordered one, when i have one.
