The speculating has begun, so let's put a poll around it!!

I am sticking with "I don't have a clue" LOL!

I don't have a clue either!
But I picked April 8th, on the assumption that CCI will try to be quick about it, but will inadvertently cause maximum panic!

I'm going with the 25th giving them a week to deal with any pre-reg issues (credit cards that didn't process, people who crashed in checkout, etc etc).

I'd also like to vote that we just continue voting on things that all year! When will the first snow fall in Chicago? When will the Saints win a game? When will this evil old biddy at work finally retire? (That's a trick one because she won't...she's going to die at work.) Etc etc etc.

I'm voting March 25th based on the theory they want to get this badge stuff out of the way. But I wouldn't be surprised if it is April 8th, after WonderCon, so they have the weekend and week before WonderCon free.

I'm putting March 25 to give them time to analyze data from returning reg and then have it before WonderCon.

I also believe March 25th since it gives them time after Returning Reg but doesn't interfere with Wondercon.
A straight line may be the shortest distance between two points, but it is by no means the most interesting”

I went with 3/25, too! That would allow for CCI to process all of the orders from Returning Reg and figure out who is/isn't eligible for Open Reg after the first sale. Plus, it would give them time to send out all Open Reg confirmations within 72 hours (aka by Tuesday, 3/28), and they could then focus on WonderCon from that Wednesday through the weekend  :)

I went with March 25th. March 18th seems too soon after the returning sale but if they wait till after Wondercon that seems to be waiting too long.

yaknow, I could see them doing it the week after RetReg, so that they just have one initiative getting all the badges out at once.

I think it would be after WonderCon weekend, just too much to do in the run up to even the smaller WonderCon, but it's anyone's guess.

I said wondercon just because I think it'd be funny.
