Thank you for the notice.  I took a look at their application.  As I think others have said in other threads, ReedPop is actually hiring temporary crew --with pay.  It is minimum wage, but it is paid.   They have one link for 'veteran' crew and one for 'new hires'.  They also emphasize that they will not refund your badge if you purchase one and then get hired on as crew.  Food for thought.

The paid crew applications for NYCC have closed.

Not a new policy, but interesting that you have to acknowledge and "understand" it on your application.

I've commented on it in the past, but was basically told to shut the "F" up and nobody seemed to mind having to go through the extra work of selling their tickets on their own.

Wonder what will happen now with Fan Verification.  Does NYCC really expect Crew people to "eat" the $40-$115 they spent on badges?

Well, since tickets didn't go on sale yet, and they did say that they would be getting back to us by the end of this month, maybe applicants will hear back before tickets go on sale. Hopefully, that's the case otherwise $115 for the 4 Day Pass may go to waste.

Edit: Yep, just as I thought. I just got an email saying that I was accepted as Crew Member, so those who are accepted will not have to worry about getting badges.

Congratulations. I didn't apply this year unfortunately. I did do the fan verification though.

I got an email yesterday stating that I wasn't picked as a volunteer. But I am on the waitlist.

That word sounds familiar.
