SDCC 2016 Pre-Registration Status Updates (During the Sale)
« on: November 10, 2015, 08:11:54 PM »
Greetings, everyone! 

We're trying something new this time around.  This is a separate thread from the regular You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to house all of the "yellow bar" status updates from the pre-registration sale's waiting room (and possibly other relevant status updates).

When I open this thread on the morning of the pre-registration sale, I would like to ask that everyone to please refrain from making conversation or holding discussions in this particular thread so that we can more easily keep track of any status updates during the sale.  Thank you!

Hopefully, this will help people keep track of whether or not your page has refreshed to the next "yellow bar" message.

Conversations will be removed without notice.


If you want to comment or make small talk during the sale, please head over to the pre-registration discussion thread: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login

If you notice updates from social media (CCI's official facebook, twitter, etc.) during the sale, please feel free to post them here.


*NOTE: The buying groups are welcome to post their level or percentage of badge purchase completion for the sale as well.  (Estimates will be just fine, since it's just to show us how each group is doing.)


Good luck to those of you participating in the pre-registration sale!  ^__^ 


from Alyssa-- Thank you for taking this on Zero! 
As Zero said the idea to keep this to only news & updates so information is easy to find- we won't have time to be nice with the warnings etc, chatter will just be deleted.

thx for your understanding!

Here's a helpful guide, courtesy of You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login, for instructions on how to post Comic-Con-related news from social media. 

Thank you so much, Sam!

If possible post the time of the tweet or facebook post.  If you're able, you may also attach the "link address" for others to forward.

In Twitter look for the three dots for a link:


   





Sample from from mobile Twitter:

Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.




On Facebook, the specific  link post will be from the "minute post."

Don't share your registration code! Each registration code is good for only one entry into the waiting room. #SDCCPreReg

We recommend that you adjust your computer's power saving setting so that your comp doesn't go to sleep while in the waiting room. ‪#‎SDCCPrereg‬

Yellow:
It’s the Final Countdown! Badge sales will begin shortly after 9:00 AM Pacific Standard Time. It is very important that you do not refresh this page at 9:00 AM PST. The only thing you should refresh from this point on is your coffee!
