Has anybody gotten their postcards yet? Are we still getting postcards? When should we be getting them?

Aaaah (^O.o)^

So do we NEED the reciept to pick up our pre-reg badges, or can we just show our IDs? >>

hmm..it can go either way, cause that has happened to me before(leaving postcard at home, but getting my badge cause of my state I.D). So yeah, it's all good.

You don't HAVE to have a receipt, just make sure you have a valid ID.

Tsukai, the postcards are from prior years... it used to be that if you pre-regged or early-regged, you were sent a postcard in the mail with the registration info on it and your name and stuff, and you'd present that (with an ID) to the reg people and they'd get you your badge.  Last year you had the option of getting a postcard or just printing out your email instead; this year they were phased out entirely.

I'm sure it saves money, though I sort of miss it.  It was exciting! Reminded me how close the con was. ;)

Well, I guess the solution is to print out your receipt, stick it in your mailbox, and "discover" it the next day. Presto! Instant Fanime-is-coming excitement!
