Really bummed out. I signed up for the event before either pendragon or robomole posted that they did back on the 13th, and well before H_Toser posted that there still may be room and I did not get an invitation. Guess it had nothing to do with what time you signed up and was maybe a random draw?

Im sure some will be based on who you are and who you know...but for the most part its suppose to be random.

On the sign up page it says "WHO: open to the first 40 collectors who RSVP" so to me that that means if you sign up before someone else you are in, not that it's a random draw.

I didn't rush here and post immediately after I had signed up. I did mine hours before my post. I was so freaking excited that I didn't notice what time it was haha, but it was far earlier than my posting here.

Yeah I just know I signed up around 3:00PMish West coast on the 13th because I saw the post during my lunch break when I was checking out all my normal sites.

I got my confirmation! For the record, I signed up at 11:45am PST. Super excited for this!

Still waiting for mine.

My wife and I got ours! Whoo-hoo!

Got mine! Yay!

I signed up early and still have heard nothing. Guess I made someone mad!!!

Anybody who is lucky enough to go see if you can find out what went wrong with the collation again,this time on Fringe.From the case breaks posted it looks like a complete disaster .

For those going to the non-sport event, Cryptozoic has announced a list of the artists that will be on-hand Saturday morning:

Cryptozoic Announces Guests for Non Sport Event at Comic Com

Hi Ace of Hearts and NonSportCardGuy26,
Send me your name and email and I can verify your submissions. If you should have received an invite I will happily send you along a confirmation and add you to the list!

I went by timestamps on the submissions, but you would be surprised by how many folks were signing up. Sometimes people with the same last name (so I'm assuming one person submitted one name and then submitted their spouse or family member) were separated by multiple entries, time stamped within tenths of seconds from each other.

I didn't purposefully exclude or include anyone... Although I guess I did go over 40 collectors to keep one couple together... so give me a chance to verify and correct any mishaps!

Sorry UberBob, your submission was dated on 6/15, which didn't quite make the top 40... or 41.

Miranda, really looking to visiting your store in the Gas Lamp, have any hours/days been posted yet? I was going to stop by on Wednesday before preview night to see what great stuff you are offering. Sorry to say I was not in time to get the invite either but am just as excited to visit during the con!

Lol! That's okay, I knew when I was signing up that I was probably pretty late to the game. Thanks, though!

Miranda, thank you for the reply. How do I e-mail you? I checked the Crypto website and didn't see an e-mail for you. I signed up sometime on the 13th I know that much because on the 14th Toser posted that it looks like some spots might still be open and I know when I signed up he had not posted that yet, and I only signed up one time to one e-mail address. Will gladly e-mail you name and my e-mail but it isn't that big a deal. I will be stopping by the store regardless to see all the goodies you guys have for sale.

Miranda,

If I could get that e-mail address too that would be swell. I run a comic store in Texas and I've a non-Comic Con related thing I'd like to discuss. My e-mail should be in my profile.

Thanks!

???? for Crypto - what are your store hours on Market Street
