    I can only see them on my phone. Basically if you line up
    at 5, doors open at 6. There's panels queue and show floor queues

    Will they ever learn to have one story straight at all times?

    And the confusion begins (or rather continues I suppose). :p Hopefully they work out any kinks in tonight's overnight in time for tomorrow's, though it's a bit late to do so at this point.

    This is like the best thread ever. Thanks for the pictures y'all; nice to have an idea of what everything looks like before some of us arrive. :)

    (also, I have no problem seeing the pics on my computer).

    That's pretty much exactly what one of the guys said when I talked to him a little while ago about this. Might be the same guy.

    Alright, I'm just going to head down there now. I didn't fly across the country last night just to think of all the reasons not to be there right now. I'll take my laptop and frequently go inside the OCCC and log on here to post/see any updates.

    And then Reedpop staff and security wonders why no one respects them by the end of 4 days. They don't do what they say

    I guess it's not enough they're first in line. They have to be ***** about it, too.

    Haha, I'm getting antsy in the hotel just pacing back and forth until it's time for me to head down.

    Are there any folks in line with chairs that might seem a bit too large?

    Grabbing early dinner with my friend and we'll decide if we want to sweat it out outside or wait a bit

    Okay, so quick update. The line has grown to probably between 2-3 hundred. It extends past the building, up the stairs, and into the upper walkway that extends from the Rosen Centre to the OCCC. I don't know how that's going to work.

    I have a grey Rogue One shirt on, it has a Death Trooper in the middle with two Stormtroopers on each side. And I'm wearing a blank brown baseball cap and have a grey jansport backpack.

    What about you so I can be on the lookout? Are you cosplaying overnight?

    Yea, I'm guessing they plan to take them back before the real line up begins.

    You mean they will be let into the overnight queue, but not into the actual panel queue?

    No, I'm saying they will probably take the big chairs back to their hotels before the actual line starts up at 8pm when they won't allow the big chairs.

    No. At my hotel. I just have a chair that is slightly too big for a backpack, but I was thinking of just going to try and call the chair bag my backpack and hope for the best.

    Just mulling about. Right now I'm in the OCCC just updating on here. When I go outside I won't get wifi. The line isn't crazy crazy long yet, so I'm just kind of keeping an eye on it.

    That's too bad. I'm a bit too far to walk the chair back and it'll just be me in line. Oh well. Maybe I'll run to Bass Pro Shops and see if they have something.

    Thanks folks

    Ok. I'm going to leave in about 30 minutes. I'm going in the doors to the A/B lobby, but I should pass by where the line is since I'm coming from the north.

    Alright, I'm going to get in line now. I don't know how they're going to bring this line in from that rampway that connects the OCCC to the Rosen Plaza. I hope people don't get lost in the mix and forgotten about while a whole lot of other people go in before them. I don't know when I'll be back in to the OCCC to log in again.

    Maybe I'll get with the times one of these days and get a smart phone.

    Anyways, I'm wearing a Rogue One shirt with a death trooper on it, a brown blank baseball cap, and I'm carrying a grey backpack. If you recognize me feel free to say hello. Just say "hey are you MotivateR5D4"? I won't force choke you, I promise.

    We just got in line. Approx. halfway on the sky bridge. New people arriving steadily, maybe a few folks every few minutes.

    I walked to the end of the line. Tried looking for Motivate but didn't see him. Will look again when I walk back. Line on the bridge extends over the entry road. Its not going to be long until it reaches the hotel.

    Man, they are going to either have to disperse or start to let people in. I don't think the hotel will let the line extend much farther.
