This is a little bit early, but how long are the lines typically to get at-con badges early Saturday morning? I'm planning to get to San Jose between 7-8am so I won't be stuck in line for 3+ hours, but I haven't done at-con registration in a long time and I don't know how much help it would be to arrive right when registration opens.

I'll be bring several pieces of props to Fanime for my Princess Tutu Fakir cosplay. Most of them are harmless objects like a pendent and books, but I'll also be bring a sword and a home-made quill. I know the sword will need to have an orange band on it, but the quill pen is a dip pen that has a steel nip. The nip is fairly pointy so I don't know if having that as a prop with me will cause a problem. If it is I can replace it with a paper stand-in but I would like to know if that's even going to be a problem.
