I don't think that's something they can really hold you to -- since they haven't announced the onsale date yet, someone might find themselves needing to buy for someone else who can't go online when the tickets go on sale.

That's what I thought, but was just wondering. Thanks for the input.

unless RP extends the deadline (which they have been known to do) you have just over 24 hours to sign up for the fan verification

The kids and I have been fan verified.

Not sure if that means folks will have to assign names and emails during the sale or afterwards.

As of now it seems like they are not requiring you to assign the tickets at time of sale but somewhere within 14 days of purchase you will have to assign the ticket to someone

otherwise why say you have 14 days

That NYCC will REFUND unassigned tickets is the first time I've seen any refund process for this year.  That is very good to know!  Thank you.
It is 2024, and I am still asking...where's my flyin' car??!! @fannishmarcia

So I guess they will be refunding tickets.

What I wonder is how many people signed up for the fan verification and if they will open up the fan verification again. Say they only got 70,000 signups then no one has to worry everyone is going to the show. Heck even if they got 110,000 signups and then even add another 30,000 for exhibitors, artists, press, pro, guests, etc. they would still need another ~20-25,000 attendees to beat last year’s attendance, so everyone should still be able to get a ticket.

Especially, now since there is no VIPs.
I do wonder if they will consolidate if you don't get a 4-Day, but you do get 4 single days.

I think Fan verification is open again?  I tried the link and it goes to the "send code" page.  Got code sent to phone and goes to fill out a FV form (already have one). Unless somehow the form isn't submitting. I didn't get to the code page this morning.

it does seem to be open, soft re-open? or extension?

They've been on FB all day saying it's closed and telling people tough so this should be interesting if it has been reopened

Though to be 100% honest I always assumed this was always going to re-open. no company would allow unsold tickets to go unsold, knowing they can sell them.

It's comical.  People complain about the dumbest things.  It's Reedpop's event and they can run it how they want.  Everyone is so entitled these days...
