SDCC 2013 preregistration

[SOCALGUUY]

 

 

Heard rumors earlier this year that 2012 registered badge holders would have option to preregister for 2013 tickets. Looks like this might be happening as I received an email from Comic Con this morning to complete an online survey. Some of the questions were whether I agreed or disagreed to whether 2012 registered attendees be allowed to preregister for 2013 and what percentage of tickets should be allocated to 2012 badge holders.

Gee, I wonder what everyone with a 2012 badge is going to say...

Are you kidding me?

It looks like they are considering 3 options for 2012 registered attendees for 2013:

 

1) Preregistration

 

2) General sales via online system

 

3) Lottery system

 

Either way, it looks like they are giving priority to 2012 holders first and then releasing the rest of tickets to general public.

didn't they do that last year for the 2012 show? Keeps anyone new from going.

Last year people had to waste part of their morning in order to get '12 passes. The whole thing about a specific amount of 4 day + preview night badges sold each morning was stupid.

They need a bigger venue or something.

They will have some opportunity for 2012 ticket holders to buy for 2013 separate from general availability, but it will happen after the con. That's what the survey said anyway. They were seeking input on what that might look like.

I'm always down to spend the early part of my Thursday buying next year's badges as I have the past couple of years. It has been a tradition for my group of friends. But if it'll make it easier for us by providing 2012 attendees a chance to snag early badges, then sure.
