whenever any furry convention happens, be sure to watch out for CONVENTION ORGANIZATION "PROFESSIONALS" who DON'T VOLUNTEER FOR STAFF POSITIONS but are ALWAYS WILLING TO SHARE THEIR OPINIONS ON HOW TO FIX EVERYTHING. you will find at LEAST five in the group chats. like clockwork.

@chirpbirb my experience on Friday morning was pretty alright. 2 hours of wait and once I was at the table, it was less than 2 minutes of working with the person.

With how many people I saw digging in bags and talking to the registration people, I can’t help but wonder if they weren’t prepared or hadn’t done the registration in line.

Again, my first con so I’m a terrible person to be giving input on it all!

@EricMalves we preregistered, so our wait time was less than an hour. we also picked our stuff up on Friday, so we didn't get the full LineCon experience. I believe we're looking into options to alleviate that for next year, but we're all still recovering ROFL

@chirpbirb I was on site registration and was in line 10 minutes before opening. Not horrible and also skipped the line that was Thursday!

I wonder if doing mailed badges for preregistration folks wouldn’t help with the rush. At least then most pre registration people can skip the line. I have no idea how the logistics of that would work

@EricMalves an issue with mailing badges is that they can be counterfitted easier since someone can hold an original and clone it before the con. that's the biggest concern that staff seems to have right now, along with the people and $ needed to run that. but, like i said, we're all tired and need to regroup lol
