Info For Artist Alley Reg

[solipoo]

i agree with phr34k, nionio, fidgey, and oniko.

this was my first time trying to register for artists alley and i managed to figure it out. the main site crashed, because people were bombarding it. there was no favoritism here. i had to go find out what was going on myself, i couldn't just sit there refreshing for the what, 6 hours the link wasn't up. i don't think the staff were unfair in posting the link on other sites.

it would have been even more unfair if they decided to wait until the main site was fixed and only posted it the time that it actually went up this year (like, that afternoon/evening?) there would have been wayyy more complaints, i think. most people were able to find the reg. link quite easily. don't blame the staff. they have been more than helpful to me, and they are trying their best. 8'I

good luck in the drawing, though. ;o;'''

This email just went out to the AA mailing list. Hopefully this will help clear some stuff up, guys.

Oh simple question! How do you sign up for the AA mailing list? :O Or is it only for those who got the table or something?

Yep, it's for everyone! Just send them an email with "add me to the list" or something similar, and you're set. :)

I have a question about the lottery.
Would it effect those who signed up as a group, So let's say:

I signed up a group of 4 artists under my name (including me)
And one of the artist in the group was chosen by lottery,
Does it mean the other three within the group do not get a table?
Or Does All 4 Artists Get in?

I'm just curious, and no it's not favoritism, AA staff is doing their best to keep things running, and since the main site crashed, they had to post the link in other sites.

My group and I haven't been approved, I'm literally scared, But with the remaining tables availible
It all comes down to the Lottery!!!
*Cross all my fingers >.<
Thank you AA Staff for all the help and hard work

Is it really first come first serve? I made an account the day registrations opened, and someone else I know signed up a week later, yet they already have a table and I'm still waiting??? I'm really confused.

I hope your friend just pulling your leg cuz their no way that's possible it's first come first server. And if for some weird reason this is true I wish to have a explainion on y this was possible which I also reg the same day and haven't gotten a table ...;-;

I have a question!
Are you in the future cons, going to perhaps reserve a set of tables specifically for people who want to sell for one day? Or even, a few hours?

I know me in particular, I just want to sell for fun, nothing big or serious, and it'd be nice to just experience it for a day, not even the whole weekend. (Like doing a few commissions to buy things I want) because I know last year I tried doing art for tips in the hallways but I was told it wasn't allowed unless I had a table so---
I just thought it would be nice that rather than allow a set number of the few "ready" enough to get tables for the whole weekend, the event could be better appreciated by a larger number of people wanting to experience AA firsthand. Like, half a row in the back or something, idk?

I remember before when there enough empty tables that people could purchase a day table, it was sort of nice? I'm sure it'll still be competitive to get one-day tables but it'll open up to the public more, yes

I wish they were, but they take every chance they can to show me their papers and rub it in my face. :/

If you signed up before them and they have proof they have a table, then I'm sure you got your table, too. It's most likely just taking the staff longer to review your art and approve you.

Or check your junk mail.  Make sure your not blocking AA e-mails on accident.

You reged at around 5:00, but most of those approved regged before 2:00. just FYI

[Azu_Chan]

OK that soo weird you sure they not in a group that reg and were added later? I know for fact i didn't get one cuz i check both my spam and indox haven't gotten anything :T

[darkkako]

It could be that they only wanted half a table and there was a half-table left? -wild guessing-

[Azu_Chan]

doubt it staff would have e-mail stating only half table is left :T

So..Coughdrops signed up on the day reg opened & @ around 5--didn't get in, his friend signed up a week later & got in--- now it's first come first serve policy, does that mean people who signed up after 2PM on the first day won't be listed for the FCFS policy? (I registered at around 7 on the first day).

Anyone not approved by now is likely in the lottery.
