CCI continues to move much more swiftly...I like it!

"Priority volunteer registration for Comic-Con 2018 will begin at 10:00 AM Pacific Daylight Time (PDT) on Monday, October 30, 2017. Priority volunteer registration is for PRIORITY VOLUNTEERS only (those who completed at least one assignment during Comic-Con 2017 or were pre-approved by the Volunteer Department).

Priority volunteer registration will close on Friday, November 10, 2017."
It is 2024, and I am still asking...where's my flyin' car??!! @fannishmarcia

I just have one more question. I'm a priority volunteer, and quoting the email
"You are guaranteed admission to our Comic-Con 2018 volunteer program if you register prior to the deadline."
Does this mean that I can register ANYTIME after Monday October 30, and before November 10 and still have a spot? It's just to be clear. I don't want to mess this up

There is no hurry to regester. as long as you register before the cut off you're good


Was anyone else who should be eligible, not listed as eligible?

I would have sworn I was listed as eligible after con
yet i am not currently listed as eligible.... & yes, i completed a shift in good standing- ( i even sweated!)

I gather you turned your C card in --- & were not listed as eligible for priority.

did you get an idea about what happened? why you were overlooked?
I think the same thing might have happened to me all tho, i could have sworn i was listed as eligible ....

That's odd...  Quick!  Perhaps send an e-mail to [email protected] to have them look into that before the priority volunteer registration deadline, if you haven't already.  :]

Well for me I we both had late night volunteer shifts. My Card was turned in but I never really got clarification about why I wasn't given priority but my mom was. I think I was just overlooked or my C card wasn't turned in. I was never listed as eligible for priority vol. Reg but I should have been. I ended up emailing Sue Lord (as we had an extensive conversation with her during the convention)  with the time and name of the panel i was working and she changed my status to priority volunteer reg. I hope this helps.

oh, yes, the email has been sent hrs ago--
thanks tory
that's my feeling, is that given all the confusion going on the first day & being a last min pre-show volunteer- somehow my c card just got over looked- I'm not worried I just am hoping to get this cleared up and still be a volunteer.

I also have press so it's more of a secondary thing for me- giving back & seeing how it works. But bottom line- i did work hard & did a good job last year for my shift-
