Call me an asshole, but there should be some sort of seniority for this shit.
I mean people who don’t even have badges yet are able to get put their names down for the hotel lottery and successfully get hotel rooms over people who already have their badges.
Or what should actually happen is when they do their “Early Bird Badge Sales” for the people who went the year before, should also be able to stick their name in the lottery and get priority.
So my entire hotel group, 6 different people, failed to get a room. Seriously SDCC. Seriously.
The lottery is such shit I s2g.
Who wants to be the Wolverine to my Shadowcat at SDCC?

Hotel Lottery? Whats that?
So basically, Comic-Con International closes all the hotels down in the area during SDCC week so that you can’t book your hotel in, say August. They release the the hotels in March (or at least it was March last year), and you put your name down for up 5 different hotel rooms and then when they release the rooms, you hope you get the hotel you want. The hotel rooms go at a cheaper prince (not early bird special price, but cheaper) but they sell out fast so you need to put your name down fast.

That was the worst experience ever! Kept freezing, if it freezes again during the resale, I am going to CUT whoever came up with the EPIC registration
EPIC registration is anything but epic. Probably the worst in existence You’d think after 4 years where this kind of shit keeps happening, they’d try something new…but nope.
clowchan reblogged your post: PEOPLE WHO ARE STILL WAITING ON BADGES
And thatll freeze up too. Damn, they…worst servers for this stuff Thanks
Yeah. Probably. lame stuff.
1. There is a resale period where you’ll have a chance. (usually in June)
2. Because of the bullshit with the broken links, there’s a good chance they’ll have a second chance sale for anyone who didn’t get 4 day badges. Last year the badge sale website froze so they ended up having a second chance sale like 2 weeks later. GO COMPLAIN.
I am an awful person for reading disappointed SDCC tweets? They are however, hilarious.
Are any of my followers currently in line to buy badges for SDCC and willing to buy one or two more?
