Title: Thanks for the 2007 program book!
Post by: Mew on August 28, 2007, 04:06:06 PM
Was surprised to find this in the mail today. THANKS!

I flipped through it and wow, it's NICE!!! Great job, you guys! It's just too bad they weren't able to be given away at the con.

Question-- I was the leader of group reg for my group. Is here any way my group members could get a copy of the program too?

When I got the books, I felt like Fanime was about to happen again very soon.

I was the leader of my registration group, and Fanime sent me a huge number of them at the same time, all kept together by string and rubber bands, so hopefully yours are coming soon.[/quote]

Same same ^__^

I was like "OMG what's this package lying ony my desk." when I arrived home. Read the Note, and ripped the package and flipped thru the magazine.

It was nice. However, an additional suggestion to be added to the last pages of the program guide. The program schedules and times.

And yes, i've enjoyed my first con in Fanime 2007 ^_^
Quite an experience. I'd better save up for next year and reserve a hotel room, as I don't want staying up too late playing Para Para @_@

Did you guys sign up for something to get the programs? Or do they go to people that registered for Fanime this year?

I pre-registered as well, so I'm hoping I get a copy too >>

This was easily the best program guide I have seen so far...

And not just because Fanime Delivers... I actually have all the old ones from years past, and this one is by far the shiniest one so far.

I got a stack of them in the mail the other day, but was a bit surprised to find that they seemed to have randomly decided who got one and who didn't. I was the leader of a 9-person group reg, and I got 5 programs in the mail, not including one actually adressed to me. o_O Any idea what's up?

:O
I did wonder that too. My brother went to Fanime as well, but with his friends as a group reg but he didn't get any. Perhaps they got short? and perhaps just one program copy per household?

I mean, sending a package will be a bit expensive, what if that attendee was from one of the far states?

Are they only sending programs to groups? Is there someone to contact about getting one? I REALLY want one.

"What the hell is in my mailbox?"

"O_o Cool."

I was one of the few people to grab a program at the convention, but I'm glad to get this super edition. Thanks Fanime!

:shock: What do you mean by "super edition"?  How did you get a program at the convention, and is it different from the one in the mail?

(P.S.  I got mine!  Squeeee!)

Just so everyone knows, there are tons of people that didn't give us correct addresses when they pre-registered (ranging from '123 Fake Street' to profanity in the address field).

I'm looking into ways that we can give out program guides to people that gave us their correct address and somehow didn't get one (all of the people that I've talked to that pre-registered and registered at-con all got one).

I'm pretty sure that I put down the correct address when I pre-registered, but I live in Milwaukee, so it might just be taking a while for my program to get here. Is there someone I can e-mail if I don't get one in the next week? I really want one!

Wow, people actually put in fake information for Fanime? XD; News to me.

I received my copy yesterday! Eee, it was such a nice surprise after a tiring day of school! I took my time reading and appreciating it after a nice shower (I agree, it's quite lovely). I, too, thank the Fanime staff for taking the time and effort to send these out to us!

Also, I love the little note and sketch on the envelope.

I was the leader of my little 3 person group, and three programs came to my house, though at two different times. One showed up a week before the other two (which just came in today), so maybe it's still stuck in the mail for those of you who've only got a couple so far. I didn't sign up for anything either, so they have to just be going by people's accounts.


Thanks Fanime for sending them to us though, I'm sure it was a big project to get all those addresses and mail them out. Especially for such a nice program this year. ^^

Heyy, just got mine.  Thanks muchly!  It definitely gives the impression that you guys are always hard at work.  

I'm only about a two-hour drive away from the con center itself and I got mine a few days later than everyone else, so it's possible they're going out in multiple shipments or something.  I wouldn't fret if you haven't gotten yours yet.  With the holiday coming up, it might be delayed a little further, too.

Nice program guide. Seems like it has a lot of information that I would have found really useful at the con. >_<

I can't tell if you're being serious, so I'll just answer as if you are. :P

We never mail out Program Guides before the convention as that would cost us money. It's easier for us to hand the Program Guides to you when you check in (and you wouldn't be able to forget it at home :P).

Personally, I count Thursday pre-reg as "before the con".   ;)

By the way, the link for the digital copy referred to in the sticky topic http://forums.fanime.com/index.php/topic,7600.0.html seems to give a 404.

Forgot to say: Thanks for the program book!

It's satisfying to see your panel in the book which you hosted. Maybe next year each panel can have a "hosted by" too?  ;D
