Ed Hanes Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 (edited) Just FYI, it can take up to two months or longer after the deadline to submit for the actual signing to occur, knocking up the return time by two months or more. Both Bagley and Spencer signing deadlines were the end of June. The Bagley signing finally occurred on August 18 and the Nick Spencer signing doesn't even have a date yet.

Ed Hanes Posted August 26, 2021 Author Share Posted August 26, 2021 (edited) I find it interesting that the two people that have trolled me over the past week have been newbies that joined only days before (Plub joining Aug 15 and Yayeah joining Aug 22), ...makes me wonder about the security of the chat boards Edited August 26, 2021 by Ed Hanes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just report anything that violates the rules, and otherwise assume you are publicly discussing things with a wide range of internet strangers, and can get all kinds of responses.

These users have a surprising amount of knowledge since they've actually been in the hobby a long time, but for whatever reason, enjoy trolling the boards. Some of what they say is brutally honest, some of it needs to be taken with a grain of salt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't post relevant or useful information that pertains to the OP concerns...I just find it pathological and pathetic that people would go out of their way to make new profiles Edited August 26, 2021 by Ed Hanes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferretboy Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 An extra two months is nothing. I submitted two books for the Geoff Johns signing. Deadline for submission was 12/15/2020. Long series of reasons for why the signing was delayed. One creator was living in Canada, covid restricting international travel etc. At present, I can't even view my submission as it has passed 8 months in system. I assume it will pop up when the books finally reach grading. overall, the turnaround time for these signings has been good, but there has been outliers.

Had the same for the David Finch signing, which I think was the same time as Johns. I finally got my books back in late July/early August. As for submission rolling off your page, that will happen based on the limit it can display, but you will still be able to search for it. Enter the submission or order number (if you still have that info) and it will show up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
