Bummed about this one! I'm working a virtual conference all this week, so no time to refresh reddit/discord all day to get the early link.

I was really hoping just having the twitter notifications would be ok for this one  :(


Honestly it should have been,  I am really really unhappy about this.  They are pretending that it never went live early and that it took seven minutes to sell out.  Both are a joke.

Yes that is hilarious everyone is calling them out on that lie on twitter. Lots of incompetence (and/or favouritism) with these ticket release

N ow it's just radio silence.  Do what some party did a few years ago, you create a new event.  PW protect it.  Acting like it's EBs fault you could +5 is ridiculous.  You can test this stuff and hide it, that's literally what Funko does every single year.

It’s a free party.. Like a famous idol for my three year old  once say. “Let it Go”… and yes I also got burn by the early link so no party for me either. At least there is no Conan this year to get another reject.

FYI based from what I have seen on SDCC discord the Ring twitter/group is getting into a fight with SDCC Unofficial Blog. They apparently used their pics and refuse to credit them and now blame them for their fiasco of having an early link release

LOL! Twitter fights. This all ends with Onering banning UBlog from their party and Ublog never mentioning them on their site again.

Or maybe they make up, become friends, become lovers then its a big orgy.

Who knows.

I hope they don't honor them TBH,  I know it's great to hit but people grabbed six tickets.  That's clearly outside their intent both via the webcast and the description.

Honor the dang tickets! This is a lose/lose situation but it’s a free event and you only stand to gain unnecessarily angry people by cancelling tickets. It’s not like they were released maliciously; it was accidentally posted. Everyone acted in good faith.

Your tune really changed depending on if you got tickets or not.

Glad to get back to the comic con frame of mind after 3 years. Rules and regulations if they are even known or enforced never applies to anything and usually reward those that bends and breaks them. From selling wristband to line hopping,
lots of people fighting for the same thing tooth and nail parties, to exclusives, to getting a free swag t shirt.
Breath it in everyone. This is Comic Con. I’ve doing this long enough to just brush it off. 
First Rule of Comic Con,There are no Rules…

Thinking that if you show up in cosplay, that might give you an advantage obtaining these.

I know there's separate prizes for people showing up in cosplay for the party.
