Hey y’all! Just wanted to let all the first timers know how important it is to be active on this forum. You would be surprised how much of a difference being a part of this group can make! Our first time to SDCC was in 2017, and thanks to the FoCC buying groups we scored 4-day badges for both of us and during Hotelpocalypse another member got us a room at the Westin Gaslamp! We were totally shut-out with our own attempts at both. Then, this year (shut-out again for badge sale)we were able to get 4-day badges for both of us AGAIN thanks to our buying group!! I can’t say enough good things about the FoCC community!So, stay active, keep reading the invaluable posts by the veterans, and ask questions, and I guarantee this group will help you have the best Comic Con experience possible!!

Adding to TravT77's 'commit' comment... I find that it helps to plan ONE big thing per day that you want to do, then go and pursue that until you have it. If it's getting into Hall H, then all you do is pursue getting into Hall H until you are there. If it's an offsite, all you do is wait for that offsite until you are in. Once you are done, THEN you can go for the other things of lesser priority. This helps structure your day, while still leaving room for the unexpected/spontaneous things that can happen.
Yes yes yes THIS THIS.I usually have a "day thing" and a "night thing" and "maybe if the other things don't work out or I have extra time" things. Day thing is usually a panel or an off site. Night thing is usually either a party or line camping for the next day.
Speaking of feet, do not what I did at my first SDCC way back in the day... wear flip flops. My excuse was, I didn't know the scale of SDCC (it was much smaller back then, but still bigger than anything I'd ever experienced), and I had no idea how much walking I'd be doing. Ended up with bloody feet at the end of the day. Now, not only do I wear comfortable shoes, but also padded running socks. Even then, I'd still end up with sore feet on some days.
