FanimeCon 2013 Attendee Registration FAQ *updated 5/1*

[SOawesomeness]

Will there be a sperate line for group reg or is it the same line as the rest of the pre reg.

There is only one line for pick-ups, so there will not be any special line for group registration pick-up.

I didn't see this question on the front page so sorry if it's been asked already! > n<

But do we have to print out the electronic postcards? Or can we just have it on our smart phones?

It's fine to have it on your smart phones BUT just in case, I would print it out (knock on wood for any impending power outages).

They haven't gone yet right?

They haven't gone yet right?

If you're talking about the e-postcards, they have not. We will get it sent as soon as we can.

Thank you for your patience!

Are the electronic postcards emailed all at once? My friends are starting to get them and I haven't so I'm starting to worry a little. Thank you!

Oh shoot sorry for making such a useless post. I'll direct all my postcard questions there now. Thanks!

I hope this question hasn't been asked yet, but would it be possible to buy a badge for someone else at con for the day? I preregistered, but someone else wants to come as well now. Could I just go into the registration line and put in their information and pay for it?

Unfortunately no, the person registering must be present. Another person can pay, but they must be present.

[LaChatNoire]

I went ahead and preregistered online, but never got around to paying and now the online reg is closed... Can I stand in the pre/early reg line to pay for and pick up my badge or do I have to do an at-con registration now? I've looked everywhere for an answer to this question specifically, but to no avail. Thank you!

Sorry bro. I had the same issue last year. Unfortunately, your badge had to be paid off before a certain date. You are registered, but since you havent paid......no bueno.

So... At-Con reg?

[EJAY420]

Yes. Starting friday morning. Get there early. Very early. Lines are known to take hours.

On the accommodations page, under "Directions", it says "Registration for FanimeCon 2013 will be located at the main Convention Center entrance in downtown San Jose." Someone might wanna fix that.

Hello,

I'm am wondering, where will the line start at the Fairmont by the Imeperial Room? My friends and I were thinking of arriving early prior to doors opening so we can get a good spot in line.

[Admiral Donuts]

Do the app was updated and now says reg starts at 4? Any truth to that? Can't find it anywhere else.

For those of you who have attended Fanime and used day zero to pick up your badge in the past:

What time would be best for me to get in line? (hours are from 7:00 to 10:00pm this year)
