And we all appreciated what you tried to do, Jedi_Master_Sal. We were hoping the deal could be made...

Oh well.

And, yeah, getting a hotel a little further out is not a big deal if you're driving to Indianapolis. At least you'll have a vehicle to drive back and forth to the con center.

Well, after almost 27 hours, I was finally able to register and get everthing taken care of.

The hotels I was looking at staying in were, of course, all sold out. But, at least I got one about 2 blocks away *shrugs*. Better than nothing =)

Light speed, too slow?
Yes, we're gonna have to go right to ludicrous speed.

It's now officially up on the swcelebration page that international guests can pick up their Vader topper and free passes at Will Call.

Just relating my experience:

Hit the C3 page on Tuesday right when sales were to open. After 1 hour I was finally registered with Gen Con. 2 Hours later I was able to purchase all the badges needed for my family (2 adults, 1 child) and reserve my hotel room at the Mariott (connected to the Con Center via skywalk).

Like others had mentioned, it would have been nice if there would have been advance notice that we'd all have to be registered with Gen Con before purchasing. Would have saved a lot of time, hassle, and bandwidth.

I logged back on yesterday morning and was able to purchase the Vader topper. That process took less than 3 minutes since there weren't many people logged on.

Those of you who haven't gotten your badges yet, you should be able to do so now without any hassle. The rush for the hotel room discount should be done.

"Just got an e-mail from Gencon saying passes can be picked up at will call any day CIII is open so i guess you can't pick them up till thursday. "

According to the PDF files in the exhibitor section of the site, there will be "Attendee Will Call" on Wednesday 2-8pm. And Attendee "Badge Registration" on Wednesday 5-8pm.

You know, I thought this was going to be a fun process, boy was I wrong!! It infuriates me that they can not ship the passes up here to Canada...I mean we are already giving Lucas/Gencon how many MILLIONS, and they can't even ship the bloody passes to Canada? I wonder...would it be better if I had the passes mailed to my family in Oregon, then have them shipped to Ontario? At least that way, I won't have to stand in line for several hours waiting to get the passes. I feel sorry for anyone coming from outside the US, becuase evidently, that is all Lucas/Gencon care about!!

VaderFanForever shipping them to your family would be a good idea I think.
I have a few friends from Canada who are doing the same thing. Shipping them to family or friends in the U.S.

It is lame that this has to happen. sad

*sigh* I wish I had friends in the US so I wouldn't have to queue at C3... but, I'm getting really used to getting the fuzzy end of the lollipop, living not only outside of the US, but in one of those countries with no official fanclub at all... sad

Just curious, does anyone know if having the badges posted to family/friends in the US work for fan club members as well?

I want my badge in advance, but I also want to make sure I get my friend passes for being in the fan club!

DarthLucanas, I just may do that! Now I am wondering how soon before C3 that they will actually ship the lanyards and badges...hopefully NOT too soon before the show. If anyone got theirs for C2, how soon in advance did you get your passes??
