Title: Badges are printing!
Post by: Rathany on February 26, 2009, 10:14:03 pm
Yes, badges are printing right now!  We still need to print the letter and the envelopes and stuff, but so they wont mail immeadiately.  But, hopefully our reg monkeys will start dropping them off in the mail within the next two weeks.  I just thought I would post since I know that some of you are always eager to know :)

Also, there will be a more formal annoucement later, but there is a special treat for pre-reg peoples this year.  You know how we always send out a letter with your badge on pretty letterhead with the mascot at top?  This year you can take that letter to our merch booth, and they will cut off the art at the top and turn it into a free pin for you!  I will post a picture of what the pin will look like a bit later on. 

I love the badge designs this year!  I will try to get pics up soon.

Just make sure that any pics posted online are taken at an angle.  This makes it at least a little harder if anyone wants to make a forged Kcon badge :) 

I will also annouce when badges get mailed out. 

(note: we aren't forcing people to wear lanyards this year)
Title: Re: Badges are printing!
Post by: EveofAbyss on February 27, 2009, 01:35:38 pm
Oh ho! No lanyards? That will be new.

Although I've become somewhat fond of them, so I may bring a lanyard and pouch from a year before and use it anyway, haha. Lanyard has become synonymous with Kumoricon for me, heh.
Title: Re: Badges are printing!
Post by: princessmoon on February 27, 2009, 02:37:48 pm
Eh? No lanyards? Ohhhhhhhhhhh........ not enforcing them, I see, but will there still be any? I also think lanyards are synonymous with K-con just like EveofAbyss! I was on a journey to collect them all and commemorate each year of K-con attendance! Me gots solamente 3!   :-[ And I made a bet with my bro what color the lanyards are this year! If I win, I get free cookies all year long! :P

Bet 'invisible' and you will be set :)

I know staff will have lanyards.  I will bring up the idea that some attendees might want lanyards available and see what we can do. 
Title: Re: Badges are printing!
Post by: nikkiolie on February 27, 2009, 05:55:29 pm
That will be nice. It will be hard to get the lanyard over my wig x.x

So I'll just have a little clip one like at sakuracon. Those are easy to put on and take off XD

Oh, thank you for offering to share that idea; I appreciate all your efforts! If no lanyard, oh well, I will "make" an invisible one :)

Invisible?!?! Hmmm...maybe I can change my bet still...LOL.

Yes, I had problems with lanyard + wig too. When I posed for pics, I just turned the lanyard to hang down my back instead of front. Clip on eh? Hmmm...

Hello ^_^

I was wondering, if I emailed registration would they be able to answer this question? We're having a discrepancy over here about whether or not we've pre-reg'd yet. So, if I emailed the registration folk(s) with our names is there a list they could check to see if we have? I'd like to reg as soon as possible and if we ARE registered it'd be kind of bad to do so twice, y'know? On the other end, to think we're registered then find out down the line we're not...

I'm asking because I did email registration a couple weeks ago, and haven't gotten a response, but I know ya'll are busy... I'm wondering if I went about this the right way? Emailing registration? Any advice on what I should do?

I'm very sorry if this is the wrong thread to be asking about this. I thought since this thread was about the badges it'd be alright. ^^ Thank you very much for any help.

Otherwise, I am very excited to see the badges this year! Kumoricon always has such nice looking badges and the pin sounds very cute. <3

But, hopefully our reg monkeys will start dropping them off in the mail within the next two weeks.

Looks like the mail-out date could be coming up pretty soon, if things are still going well.

Post by: Man of the Public on March 17, 2009, 09:46:23 pm
Can we get an ETA on when the badges will be sent out, cause I just preregged tonight and I was wondering If I would make in the first or second waves of badges.
Title: Re: Badges are printing!
Post by: EveofAbyss on March 17, 2009, 09:49:38 pm
I'm going to make a guess and say you'll probably be Tier 2 or 3. Pre-Reg starts at Kumoricon, so with about 6 months of time there have probably been enough to fill at least the first tier. But I think Tier 1 is what was being worked on presently, that's just a guess though.
Title: Re: Badges are printing!
Post by: Man of the Public on March 17, 2009, 10:12:46 pm
Eh, as long as I get my badge I'll be fine.
Title: Re: Badges are printing!
Post by: EveofAbyss on March 17, 2009, 10:18:50 pm
Oh, you'll definitely get it, sooner or later. You're still way ahead of the majority of those who pre-reg or attend, so I wouldn't worry too much about it. But yes, an ETA would always be appreciated.
Title: Re: Badges are printing!

Hi! I know a lot of you are anxiously awaiting all I have to say ;) Badges
are printed and in envelopes they should be mailed out this week. I have all
through the end of February done. If you reg'd after that you'll get yours a
little later than anticipated. (maybe 2 weeks?) feel free to email
registration@kumoricon.com and I'll respond (I just got access to the email
so I haven't responded to any yet, i know I know)

I think you'll all be pleased at the look of them! I'm really excited for
everyone to get their badges! So if you can be a little patient they will be
coming! So if you can hold off on the emails till the end of next week (to
allow for the post office to deliver) I'll love you forever and ever and
ever!

If you have non mailing questions feel free to email me (just remember that
we are a little busy so if you don't get a response in 24hours it'll be
within 48 for sure)


Thanks again for all your patience!

Hi- my mom sent this question to registration AND "acteva@kumoricon.org" about 3 weeks ago and no reply.

She pre regged us back in December 2008. No badges.

Is this mailout now that is being discussed for the first tier or what?  I know someone previously mentioned Feb. Since the website said the badges would be mailed out at the end of each tier and i think we are already on the third tier.


Should she call the # on the paypal receipt? Since payment was made in Dec and now its April :/




Title: Re: Badges are printing!
Post by: nikkiolie on April 06, 2009, 07:06:54 pm
They are working on mailing out badges up to the second tier I believe.

I know how you feel; My bro and I both registered on the last day of the Con, back in '08...and we are both still badgeless.

It worries me, seeing as other people have gotten theirs.
Title: Re: Badges are printing!
Post by: Hazuza on April 16, 2009, 10:30:50 pm
Haha, 'back in '08'... Makes it seem so long xD


My friend down the street got hers, but I have yet to get mine even though I ordered mine earlier :x

At least... I hope I did. Moreso, I hope it's under the right address *_*;
Title: Re: Badges are printing!
Post by: princessmoon on April 16, 2009, 10:52:31 pm
I'm really wondering how the tiers work since there are a few who have mentioned that they have registered quite early and have not received their badges. I don't really think about it much...just a little anxious when I do.  :P It will come...sometime! la, la, la...

Post by: dshwshr55 on April 18, 2009, 08:34:53 am
Yes, this is why I pick mine up at the con.
There's a lot of risk involved in getting them mailed. Making sure you wrote down the right address, worrying about if the person on the other end wrote it down right and mailed it to the same address, if the post office didn't lose the badge or got shipped on the wrong truck, hoping the mail guy put it in the wrong box (happens quite a bit here, actually). Then paranioa sets in, wondering if someone got to the mailbox before you did and took it for their own purposes, it might have spontaneously combusted, or your parents might have thought it was junk mail and threw it away.
I get there as early as I can, but getting in the door first doesn't mean you'll have more to do. You still have to wait for everyone else to get in before they can take pictures or set up for panels.
Title: Re: Badges are printing!
Post by: EveofAbyss on April 18, 2009, 09:29:25 am
I haven't received mine yet, but hopefully it hasn't combusted, lol.

I've not had any troubles in the past, just the same exercises in patience. ^_^ But those are good for me, right?
Title: Re: Badges are printing!
Post by: nikkiolie on April 18, 2009, 10:58:41 am
Yeah I have never had any problems before. I will be just fine though. Even if I do run into problems now there is more than enough time to sort it all out ;D

Title: Re: Badges are printing!
Post by: princessmoon on April 18, 2009, 10:41:55 pm
Same here--every year that we have pre-registered, we've gotten ours in the mail. I do recall getting them around July/August...which is fine and dandy as long as we receive it! ^_^ I'm sure the Badge Master/Mistress have many other things in their lives to deal withz....so-zzz patience is a must-zzz!

No harm in checking if you're gonna go anyway.

Hiiii

I was wondering how many VIP slots are left. I'm pretty sure I will be too busy in future to attend kcon again so I was hoping to get a VIP pass and yeah... How many spots are left? I'm thinking about buying one at the Uwajimaya fest. if there are spaces left. If someone on staff could get back to me that'd be great.


Thankkksss

Yeah, still waiting, weirdly. Kahlan and I both pre-reg'd waaaaaaaay back right after the Con.

This may be the last time we register in person instead of online. Having no proof that we registered is not a good idea.

My bro and I pre-registered online this time, and we just recently received our badges. I do think pre-registering online is faster compared to when we did in person the last few years. Sa.......dunno!

Online pre-registering opened in December, I believe... I remember checking almost daily after the con wondering when online registering would open up...then VIOLA and we got our badges last week.

I wonder how the badge processing works... O_o

If not, then there's always pre-registration Friday for pick up and meeting con-goers then!

Post by: AddictedtoText on May 25, 2009, 08:33:16 pm
Hi all,

I'm doing another big mail-out.

The way I do them is Child and Youth first so if you are under 18 (or still under 18 before con) yours go out first.

Please feel free to email me at registration@kumoricon.com

I need the following information though

your first and last names (and everyone else you are inquiring about)
rough estimate of when you ordered your badge and if it was in person or at an event.

I don't check the forums much so I need an email.

I've emailed the people who emailed me who's badges have been mailed.

I'll be emailing the other people who have emailed me when this mailing goes out as well.

We do have a 30 day turn around so if it's been less than a month please wait before you email me. There is a lot of badges we are printing and the poor printer can only do so much at a time. =p

So I appreciate your patience and understanding. We are working furiously to get your badges out to you!  :)

again don't hesitate to email me! registration@kumoricon.com

Just wanted to let you know I'm doing a big mailing today.

Thanks for the emails, if I haven't responded to your inquiry's of when your badge it's because i've gotten a LOT of these emails. I'm answering as many as I can but there is only so much i can do ;)
I am getting your emails (I hope) and I'm not ignoring them, just trying to do everything I can to make sure you get what you need plus try to have a life, haha if that's possible ;P

I got an email response yesterday saying basically things are being worked through but it is a really slow, clogged process. So, yeah, if you registered recently you're probably going to get your badge before someone who registered earlier.

This one does seem more fitting of Kumoricon but I still liked the design of the other.

Umm...is it bad if you ordered two badges at the same time but one came today but not the other?
Title: Re: Badges are printing!
Post by: nikkiolie on June 12, 2009, 02:24:03 pm
I wouldn't be too worried about it. They might not have sent them out at the same time or they could just show up at different times due to the mailing system.

I see, well I would give it a few days then send an email....though if they sent it out there isn't much they can do.
Title: Re: Badges are printing!

well, mine still isn't here.
But I think the mail comes on Saturday, so I'll check on Sunday.

Still got nothing on my end. Don't exactly know what else I'm supposed to do, sitting here seeing everyone else get their badges. *hrnn* Whatever. If I don't get my badge that's one less person going to Kumoricon next year. That's for sure.
Title: Re: Badges are printing!
Post by: nikkiolie on June 15, 2009, 02:22:58 pm
Well I still hope you get it. I would say if you haven't heard or gotten anything by Saturday send them another email?
Title: Re: Badges are printing!

Still nuttin' in my mailbox.

I'm getting worried it's going to take longer to get it by mail than it did last year for me to pick it up at the 'Con gates. D:

well, I figured I could just keep it with the parent permission form on the back, that way I can just show it to them instead of having to get out multiple things..
ah well! I'm definitely looking forward to the con now!

i did have to call ans speak with someone about the way the forms read.  they were both in my sons name and they said they would change it.  but i still have not received anything in the mail or in my email.

so what now????

All three I hope. Unless she starts complaining about not wearing her hoodie. She's so tiny that we are gunna have to make the vest a LOT smaller.

Yeah, neither do I or my fiancee, and we registered at the same time. I guess she (Kahlan, my fiancee) got an email last week though saying ours were seen in the batch for the next mailout, so if they are still on a tier system (doubtful), then yours should be in there too.

Sake tasting! I am going to try really hard to actually get into this this year. Tried last year, showed up way in advance and was still miles down the hallway in the line. Must show up waaaaaay early this year.

It was okay last year, though, because we ended up having our own sake at some point. So that was all gravy, yo.

But this is all off-topic, so...

I got a reply to my email right after sending one yesterday! She said my badge will be sent out in the next couple weeks (I registered early April), and I also got to change my badge name~

Okay, so I got my badge in the mail some time ago, but I wanted to mention that even though I asked to have my badge name changed, it wasn't, even though the printer said she would >.< I'm just going to tape over it and write the name I wanted xD

My dad's badge hasn't come yet, and we registered all in one group. So- slow mail? Mailman dropped it and it'll get delivered Monday? My bro and I got our badges in the same batch of mail, practically stuck together.

And the button idea sounds absolutely adorable too- I may have to bring a Lanyard anyway.

you get lanyard at the door. Kcon does with lanyards as Scon does with badges

and now i'm going on week two of "my friend got his badge and i havent but i ordered them both at the same time."

Post by: The_Geek on August 10, 2009, 05:28:48 pm
For all the people concerned with getting one badge, but not the other:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't they say they were mailing in age order on one of the previous posts, because I swear I saw that...
Ah, well... Mine hasn't come yet, and there was no reply to my E-mail. I suppose I'll just go with one of the previous methods and panic only when it's a week before the con and still hasn't been mailed.l
Title: Re: Badges are printing!
Post by: Jamiche on August 10, 2009, 05:42:24 pm
Badges are being mailed out in batches, and no, I'm not sure how that is being decided.

If you are concerned about your badge, and it has been more than a month, email registration@kumoricon.org with your name, when and how your ordered your badge, and they can find out for you.  But please keep in mind it does take some time to process everything.

This year, we are not using lanyards to show you have checked in, but badge holders.  So, if you prefer a lanyard, you might want to bring a previous one.
Title: Re: Badges are printing!

Sometimes, even if you register at the same time, your badge gets lost. Happened to me last year, but not to the person I registered with. Keep the pressure on registration; I eventually got my badge, but only after three hours  spent standing in three lines to get my badge reprinted at the con. It was worth it, though.
I got my badge this year, though!

I bet the mailmen can tell who's still waiting for badges. They're thinkin, 'Oh jeez, it's that odd fella who dresses up like cartoon charaters for fun, wonder what'll happen when I tell 'em there's no letter.' And then they drive off while your face is plastered to your window. *nods*
Title: Re: Badges are printing!

XDD Now, now everyone, I said increased interest, not acts of desperation~<333

And no one in my neighborhood knows about cosplay, I don't think... though, they do tend to think I'm a girl. D< *shakes fist at them* It was hilarious and slightly off-putting though: the guy who sold my sister her motorcycle was like "Oh, that's your brother? Yeah, I saw someone who looked like him on tv on American Idol, Adam or something".

... o_O; That was weird because I look nothing like Adam Lambert or whatever his name is. Otherwise, no one knows about cosplay.

I am tempted to sit on the mail box though! Sagebell, we should totally do that!! XD We can even take pictures to show the mail person's faces! Chronical the waiting process!

I live in a neighborhood full of old people. Our white trash lived in the crappy apartments (it was really this huge plantation house that was build when people still had slaves, there were the slave quarters there and everything, they put up walls and made them into apartments) down the street, which was very familiar with cops. XP
But then a few months ago they evicted everyone and burned it down to train the firemen. Was awesome to watch.
But no one knows about cosplay here either. XD

The next batch of badges starts being mailed on the 16th, right?

Well, supposing I'm interpreting the prereg page right.

Right?

Post by: nikkiolie on August 15, 2009, 03:12:16 pm
It looks like the last day to actually get your badge mailed to you was August 2nd, anything after that and till the 16th will be picked up at the door according to the site

Quote
# Pre-register online, by mail, or at one of our promotional events. All pre-registrations cover the entire three days.

    * $30 – until Dec. 31, 2008
    * $35 – until Apr. 5, 2009
    * $40 – until Aug. 16, 2009 (last day to pre-register; badges ordered after Aug. 2 will be held at will call)
Title: Re: Badges are printing!
Post by: Red Spark on August 15, 2009, 03:39:48 pm
I just figured that the badges ordered prior to the 2nd of August (and after April 5th) would be sent out on the 16th, and provided that...

Quote
Badges are mailed out in batches at the end of each pricing tier. Please note that although pre-registration runs until August 16, pre-registrations after August 2 are not mailed and are held at will call.

I ordered my badge on the 21st of July, so I'm really just asking for the sake of my own, personal peace of mind... since weird things happen to stuff I order online, sometimes. >____>;

I ordered my badge on July 5th, and am still waiting on it. Starting to get worried since the con is so close.
Anyone know what batch it should be mailed out in?

we should litterally sit on the mail box and stare at the mail men.
LOL. Best idea ever.
Too bad mine is being sent to my brothers house (sent it there since we were moving. and good thing I did too, because all our forwarded mail seems to have been lost xD)

I GOT MY BADGE!!!


Yaaaay, thank you k-con staffer(s) involved with badges, thank you!!! Oh man, I am so stoked. As I was walking out to the mailbox just as the mail truck left I knew if it didn't arrive today I would be waiting for it at the convention (which would have made me very, very sad...) and it was there!!!!!!

And they're soooo pretty, great job with the badge design!

Now, back to the sewing machine. XD <333 (And yes, I have way too much fun with that "marquee" option, haha).

Guys... if you registered before Aug 2nd (which was the cutoff for mailing out), and you still haven't received your badge, email registration@kumoricon.org with your full name, when you ordered, and they can look it up for you.

The badges are mailed out in batches, and I don't know what the rhyme or reason is to them.

I sent an e-mail quite a few days ago, but never got a reply. =(

And dangit!! I can't check to see if mine came! I sent it to my brothers house due to us moving. lol. He has a locking mail box, so I can't go over and check it. He's at the hospital with his wife (They're having their first baby.. like.. any minute now! =D) , and probably will be for a few days. So.. I have to wait even LONGER until he gets home to see if it came. xD

Post by: Neku on August 18, 2009, 07:18:28 pm
So, I'm wondering, if you ordered your badge RIGHT before the cutoff, like Aug 1st, and selected it to be mailed, would you still get it before k-con? I'm a little worried now, cause of all i read about people still waiting for badges that were ordered way before the cut off and they still have not received theirs.

i put sabata. cause he is the most pimp video game char ever. he's like a demon vampire with a gun. so kinda like van helsing. except sabata has a laser gun, that shoots that power of darkness. and the weapons in the game are cool cause they are powered by solar power. (SERIOUS. there is a friggin solar panel on the game!)

Yes, if you want to be constantly stopped by staff because something looks odd about your badge, this is a great idea.  If you don't have to be stopped constantly, I reccomend NOT altering your badge.  TPTB might decide that an altered badge is not valid. 
Title: Re: Badges are printing!
Post by: Namazzi on August 19, 2009, 02:07:40 pm
Really?  I didn't think it would be a problem since everyone else kept saying to write over it with a sharpie. lol.  Okay, then I guess you shouldn't. =X
Would suck though to have your full name on the badge twice. xD


Anywho. I was able to get into my brothers mail box (as in, he went over there and got it out for me. haha)
And my badge was there! Yay!  So today I have a brand new adorable nephew, AND my con badge. I'm a very happy person today. xD;

I'm sad, because I kept telling my Mom I wanted to pre-reg online before the date where you can't get it mailed home, but she waited anyway. So now I have to go to will call to get my badge and I have to wait for my friend to get her badge at the con (she didn't even manage to pre-reg!) And also, it's impossible to get lanyards at the con this year (it's my first con ever and I was hoping I could get a lanyard; I know pathetic)

Even those whose badges were mailed still need to check in. This year, instead of lanyards, we're using badge holders to act as proof that people have checked in. The policies page was updated this year (just recently, in August) with the new information:

When you check in, you will receive a holder for your badge. This is proof that you’ve checked in and the best way to keep your badge on your person. Keep your badge in its holder and visible at all times. This is the easiest way for the staff to know that you are allowed inside the Convention Space.

We will be selling lanyards as a bonus item for those who would like to buy one.

So, how much does a lanyard cost??

Final prices on merchandise have not been set yet (will be announced closer to con), but it's going to be an inexpensive item.

If you are asking if Will Call is open on Friday, the answer is yes.

Yay.  We hope that, if we spread the word enough, we can get 1,000 of you processed on Friday.  It would make the whole weekend so much better :)
