Fursuit ParadeAnthrocon 2010 is less than a month away now, and the deadline for Pre-registration is even sooner, on Sunday, June 6th. And you, yes you, want to Pre-register! You're a fine upstanding individual who wants to help reduce Anthrocon staff's workload by Pre-registering. You're an efficient planner, knowing you can enjoy lines that move on average five times faster than On-Site registration and get back to your fun. You're a frugal cheapskate, knowing it costs you five dollars less- across all levels, Attending, Sponsor, and Supersponsor. And most importantly, you're susceptible to the subliminal messages in this post, telling you it's time to Pre-register!

Visit http://www.anthrocon.org/registration and obey the subliminal messages, today!

And if you have it in mind to be a supersponsor, remember that we can only offer the luncheon to those supersponsors who pre-register!

I cannot begin to stress the importance of pre-registration. Believe you me, everything will be much smoother for us all. We get a much easier verification process, and you get A MUCH SHORTER LINE. Laughing out loud

I have stood in the Registration line for about 45 MINUTES.
I have stood in the PRE-Registration line for about 45 SECONDS.

Usually, I've been through the PRE-Registration line FASTER than 45 seconds.

We really do not encourage people to wear their suits in the registration line. Why? Because you have to show a photo ID, and unless your drivers' license or passport has your fursuit face on it, we're going to have to ask you to un-mask before giving you your badge.

'sides, it gets awfully warm.

Valid Photo Identification may include:

Drivers' License
State ID
Government ID
Military ID
Passport

Please be sure to have one of these types of identification on you. A State ID is rather easy to obtain, and looks like a drivers' license. They're around $30, depending on which state that you're in. It involves getting your birth certificate, social security card, and some other things. They can ship in 6 weeks or less.

I'm not sure about other states, but I know when I got mine I received a "temporary" ID as soon as they took my picture, so anyone who still needs one, you don't need to wait 6 weeks to get your ID if you still need it for AC.

*pats his Supersponser preregisteration, and smiles* I've been ready for this for a very long time. Sticking out tongue As for those of you that aren't registered, I'm afraid to say time waits for no one. Eye-wink

When I worked registration last year the on-site reg line was a killer. The wait had to be close to an hour and that line never shrunk while I was there. Pre-reg lines were quick. This year my mate and I decided to go for super-sponsor too.

That's possible. I think Chia made the Registration staff partake in one of the EEEVIL Espresso Brownies so that we'd be super-wired on caffiene and not want to leave Registration to sleep.... ever.

I shun the consumption of highly caffeinated beverages... usually a decent breakfast consisting of fruits, granolas and yoghourt help with natural energy. Too much sugar will bog you down, and caffeine will make you crash afterward.

I know you love your Bawls and Red Bull and Monster... and mixing them... o.O;

Yeah except when you pick up the staff badge you're quickly booted in the ass and sent down to the galley to start rowing.

Wait, was there a subliminal message in that post?
I somehow have an intense craving for simplicity and hassle-free funtime...
what dastardly mind could come up with such a ploy as to instill the need for a lack of line-standing into my mind! CURSE YOU!

Yo people, seriously, pre-reg.
