Title: ID question
Post by: zeroelement on May 23, 2011, 12:31:12 PM
I recently lost my wallet (with money in it TT_TT) and i got a replacement Temp ID drivers licensee. It says my name on it and when i was born (Age). Will that work as an id? (i got it from the DMV and no were on it says not valid as an id)

You should email reg and let them know whats going on. That way you dont hold up the line behind you or possibly get rejected.

For the 18+ events you may have an issue. I know in past years they'd sent a few people to ConOps, and then ConOps had to clear them through, but that was a few years back. You may want to find/e-mail the specific section of staff that deals with IDing for the 18+ events. (Not sure who that is, you'll probably want to wait for a mod/staffer to direct you.)

As per Rovers - its a borderline issue. If there was a photo, it will go in your favor. There are other considerations: how old you look, the condition of the actual paper, in state, etc.... You may also be sent to higher-ups to confirm.

What Eric said.

Rovers at the door will make a judgement call but the paper (I.E. does it feel like printed paper), the state of issuance, the photo on the paper (Does it look like it was taken at the DMV or a college dorm room), etc. will be considered.

If you need to, ask for Steve.
