Ideas and Suggestions / Re: Please, Do NOT Do “Silver Island”

« on: May 31, 2019, 10:23:55 PM »

I didn't go to Silver Island; that aspect of the con doesn't interest me. From my friends who went, they seemed to have a good time with no complaints (besides just having to go over there, which is given).

How would y'all like to see the DoubleTree space utilized?

I believe with a child you can head straight to the special registration line when she shows up with you. I recommend emailing registration@fanime.com to confirm!

This year reg will be directly inside the convention center. Just walk in the front door and there should be signs directing you where to go! I don't think you will get too turned around unless you get lost finding the end of the line, which I hope won't happen!

I just hope they announce the location change to their social media soon! Rumor has it the problem with last year was the different badge style? I can't really remember anymore. people learn from their mistakes, so i hope that includes Fanime. I think rovers had some difficulty organizing the line when it got sooo long.
I have faith for this year to at least be an improvement from last year!!

I guess we shall see how the line is handled and the speed badges are given out this time. I would come prepared just in case. Maybe we'll get an announcement as it gets closer on expected speed of badge-pickup. A fan-run con is just full of surprises!!

I hope they'll improve the line this year! Or least have better line organization....
I think they learned their lesson last year with Revenge of LineCon!

Hey y'all! Just making sure that everyone has noticed that Reg has updated their FAQ to say they've moved back to the Hub (kind of under Stage Zero from what I remember) at the convention center this year!!
I hope the lines will be less chaotic and long this year!

no, the price just increases. you can still buy badges online throughout the whole duration of the con. as far as i understand.

Since Fanime badges dont have the tap in/out that SVCC had, [yes I did attend and volunteer, was AMAZING!! ] it sounds like it will just be a jumbo badge checking station at all the 2nd floor access points. That is a lot of places, maybe some will get blocked? In theory it would be faster than SVCC because eyes are faster than tech. It'll be interesting to see if any of the big attractions (ie reg, artist's alley, dealer's hall) will have to adjust to this implementation. They would be hard to move/adjust simply because they need a lot of space to be efficient. 
I know AX has a similar system with bag checks (after the bomb threat a few years ago) when you enter and badge checks on their second floor. It slowed down entering the con a little, but they were very efficient. Maybe this will encourage more peeps to buy badges if they just want to lurk in the upper hallways!
Fanime is wonderful and happy and awesome, so I hope this will help it stay that way!!
