If reg opens at 2 PM I'll be floored and say nothing but good things about reg until the next con.

If they open at 3 PM I'll be impressed.

If they open at 4 PM I'll consider it business as usual.

Is there a day 0 pickup for the AA as well?

I'm not sure what you mean. If you are an Artist, you may pick up your badge on Thursday like everyone else who registered online. However, you must still check in with Artist Alley on Friday.

For Fanime, it's in the lower level of the new expansion. On the map below, it's the orange area on the lower level.



For Clockwork Alchemy, it's in the DoubleTree hotel.

Honestly, you might be better off getting your badge Friday morning.

so fanime is having pickup from 3-8 on day 0....

i thought i saw 5-8 on CA's page for their day 0 hours...is this correct, or will they also be doing 3-8??
CA's hours may be different than FanimeCon's. Please double check the convention's hours as they may not necessarily be the same.

We will be capping the line at 8pm. This means those that were not in the line prior to 8pm will not be able to stay in the line.

Please check with the head of AA. Last I heard, if you are an artist, you will only be able to pick up your badge starting Friday at Artists Alley. You will not be able to pick up your badge at Registration. This is a new policy change for AA members.

If you've already designated your spot for badge pickup as Fanime, are they actually going to let you just change to CA on the fly like that, though? 
We use this designation as a metric on where to allocate our resources. We will not hold you to whatever location you chose when you registered.

So are badges going to be printed on-demand during reg?

Yes. We will have printers at nearly each check in station.

Wow, that sounds like a huge improvement! Kudos to whomever got that together.

The AA process said anybody in AA picked up the badges in the AA location this year.
So I wondering if there was a different schedule for badge pick up since there's only going to be a handful (well comparatively) to the regular lines.

Do NOT come to Registration as we will not be giving you your badge. You must check in at AA.

Wait, so they won't be fancy-badges? Or will they be fancy printers making fancy badges?

Judging from what I've read on the forums before, my guess is that it's going to be the same as last year where they will be printing off stickers with our names and member numbers, and applying it to the fancy plastic badge.  Honestly, if that's the case, I'm perfectly okay with it.  My main concern is with the lines anyway.

They will be fancy badges with fancy printers printing directly onto the fancy badges.

Sounds fancy. Do pre-reggers (online reggers I guess they're known as now) get fancier badges?
