The reason for the long lines at Pre-Reg last year was due to the "Spike" phenomenon. It should be better this year and the onsite lines open at 8 am, so you should be able to make a 1 pm panel no problem. The reason badges are not mailed is that the postal system has a bad habit of losing things.If y'all are in the onsite line wave or say Hi...as thats where I will be most of the Con...unless I can sneak away for Firefly panels anyways.

Hi guys, newbie here. I have been lurking for a while and decided to join AND go to my first Dragon Con. I am planing on registering around 3ish Friday, but I will probably only be able to do one day. I hope you don't mind if I try to squeeze in at the last minute.
I do own the Firefly DVD set and I regularly watch them.
I still have to get used to this board format also, please bear with me.

Welcome ByteTheBullet, always room for one more in the Firefly 'verse! You planning on doing Friday or Saturday? You said you've been lurking, even if you don't have a Friday ticket you can still meet up with the Firefly fans at the Firefly fan table, lower level of the Marriott at about 8:30. It's very informal, just so we can put faces to the names and talk about our favorite show, maybe grab a bite to eat, reservation fo 60 please....
See ya soon!

add 2 more to your list. my daughter and i are going. we just got finished making arrangements. our first con anything, anywhere. i've been reading everyones comments for this one and the san diego thing and it sounds cool. and when i read adam and nathan and so many browncoats were joining jewel, we decided to do it! by chance we had both asked for friday off months ago, with no real plans. a friend said it was destiny.
we don't have t-shirts or anything but we will make every firefly event and we'll be looking for you all. so when someone walks up and says 'hi fellow browncoat, i'm karenkay and this is my daughter jess.' it'll be us.
see ya friday!!

Hi KarenKay99, welcome to the 'verse! You were definitely destined to spend time with 80 of your closest fellow Browncoats!
Don't worry about not having a t-shirt. Do you have a brown scarf, or a brown ribbon you can tie on your arm or head. Can you cut out a little brown coat and stick it to your badge? There's lots of ways to be identified as a Browncoat, feel free to use your imagination! We'll see you there!

This is also my first time for a Con.
My plan is to get our badges on thursday evening.
Fireflygal,
that is a very cute idea about cutting a coat out of brown material, I'll try it 
See you ALL 
on friday!!!

Hi all,
Sorry for the late notice, I thought I had posted before. I'll be there from Thurs. night to Mon. Afternoon. Staying down the road a piece by the airport and driving/cabbing/busing in, whichever is most convienent. Also, I don't have any unofficial Browncoat wear like the blue sun shirts etc. I'll likely just be wearing my variety of Marillion Tees, but if Browncoat wear is availible on site I'll be picking up a bit. See you all there. Anyone selling buttons, postcards, ribbons etc at the booth, I'll be happy to pick up a few items.
Fri. 7:00 centennial 1, BDHs
8:00 fan table marriot 1st floor
