I went with the 12th :)

I'm going on the assumption they don't need us to validate since we scanned in.

I'm hoping that's the case, since it's so late already. Last year there was over a month of validation period, well into September! If they're going to do that again, they're getting an awfully late start.

Aside from it being late, it would also be kind of frustrating to have to validate when we spent all that time tapping in and out at con :D.

I really hope the majority on the poll's right and it ends up being November 12.  Or at least that it will be no earlier than November 12 because I will be out of the country on vacation during the first four choices!!!  ???

This is my first time to be able to participate in pre-registration.  Has it happened in the past where it took place in October?

There isn't enough of a history to say 'always'. The first year of online pre-reg, it was held in August. IIRC, after that it is been in November... I think?

I appreciate the stats, Steve! I love how when my memory fails, someone in this forum steps up and provides the necessary info. Thank you!

Thanks for the info!  So chances are good that it should be similar to last year's.

I voted November 12, mainly because I want it to be on that date and I'm hoping for a bit of consistency.

Interesting.... It *may* just be scheduled maintenance, but it's also possible that some kind of update/information will be in there once it reopens...

So I guess the language is changed? Returning ReRegistration isn't as easy to say as Pre-Reg.  :P

Looks like our poll is way out of date. I'll be adjusting it shortly.

Announced today:

Comic-Con 2017 Returning Registration
Returning Registration for Comic-Con 2017 will occur sometime in early 2017.
You will not need to validate your Comic-Con 2016 badge number to participate. You can buy badges for up to three people — yourself included — during Returning Registration. Each person must have their own Comic-Con Member ID and must be eligible to participate in Returning Registration. You may not purchase badges for others using your own Member ID.
