Well, a friend of mine has just backed out, so I have an extra badge, fan club lanyard and coupons available. All I ask is face value plus Paypal fees so I come out even. Please PM me if you're interested. I can deliver in LA, or Express Mail at your expense.

I guess I'm one of the lucky ones. My packet FINALLY did come in the mail yesterday. It said it was mailed out on 5/10. Though it did have a funny USPS marking across it. Big bold letters...."RETURNED FOR POSTAGE". Ummm, I wonder how many more of these were returned due to improper postage? Sad, sad, sad...

WOW,seems like a LOT of people are getting screwed in the head becasue of this.My heart goes out to all the people who havent gotten there stuff yet.I cant believe they just wouldnt start shipping this stuff as soon as ppl had paid-i mean cmon,all the other could have been put up earlier AND then had an earlier cutoff point.Im from Australia so it's will call for me anyways,but it looks like instead of 2000 ppl,i will be lining up with about 5000-cant wait to see you all there,cheers,Glenn.

in the mail i got they said they mailed the last of them out on the 4th of may, from what i am seeing on here people were post marked on the 10th?

Well i said to Overnight it to me or i expect Gencon to pay for a taxi trip for me to the Will Call line and back. I am being asked to make an unexpected trip to be in a line i should not have been in.

i am not asking for any money back just asking what is fair.

if my packet comes in i will let it go but only ask what is fair and not to be lied to.

Well, a lady fron GenCon just called me at work to apologize about my tickets not being mailed to me on time. She says a package is waiting for me at Will Call. The thing is, I got everything last week (pass, lanyard, tickets). confused The only thing I could think of is the ticket for the Carrie Fisher event but she didn't know if that's the package. And they wouldn't call just for that since we knew it was Will Call anyway, right? So I guess I'll go to Will Call and see what it is.

mine did not come with a lanyard and I am no longer a hyperspace member. Can I just put my badge on a string or do I need one given by Gencon?

You could do that, although I understand they will have regular lanyards available at the con.

When I got mine a few weeks ago it had ink spilled all over the address label, I was lucky the post office was able to read it.

My boyfriend and I ordered our badges and chose the will call option. We both got our badges in the mail last week.
Now THAT is ridiculous. All of the other missing badges could be boiled down to postal/lucasfilm/beaureaucratic issues, but if they're mailing badges to people who chose will call, you know they have a serious organizational problem.

You can put it on anything you want. I had a lanyard from my school for C3, but any lanyard or string works.

And despite all of the bad things that this faux pas is telling us, it's also a good sign because last time I didn't see Gen Con enforce fan club only entrances/areas/events the entire weekend*, so maybe I'll get into some places I shouldn't again! dancing


*okay, once in the middle of the afternoon, a 501st volunteer made me walk through the snow to the non fan-club door even though they were both open and there were no lines at that point. but that's just idiocy.
