JOINING THE SA FORUMS WILL REMOVE THIS BIG AD, THE ANNOYING UNDERLINED ADS, AND STUPID INTERSTITIAL ADS!!!

You can: log in, read the tech support FAQ, or request your lost password. This dumb message (and those ads) will appear on every screen until you register! Get rid of this crap by registering your own SA Forums Account and joining roughly 150,000 Goons, for the one-time price of $9.95! We charge money because it costs us money per month for bills, and since we don't believe in showing ads to our users, we try to make the money back through forum registrations.

And now that registration is randomized, you're gonna be hosed.

What does this mean? I understand you have to register and account to be able to buy a badge, but how is it "randomised" if there's no limit on registrations?

When purchasing tickets now, there's 2 sets of randomization. First you get randomly selected into a group and then inside that group you're randomized into a purchasing order. But for all this you need to have a member ID (which I think might be the registration you're thinking of).

Right, OK that makes sense to me now. Fingers crossed I make it thru this lottery hoop-jumping. I'll be in San Diego July till mid-August and never been to a proper Con so this seems too good of an opportunity to waste.

Can you tell me more about the events and parties that go on downtown during Con week? I've heard about them but don't know the specifics...
