AWA 12 (WoOt)

This forum is for the announcement and discussion of anime conventions, and for the exchanging of rides to, and rooms at, conventions.

This is fucken ridiculous.
This is aimed at no one in particular, I'm just majorly pissed and need to vent.

Sent that email on the 17th. Only AFTER I posted that nobody responded on the .org did anyone care. I got an email saying my registration would be "looked into". My forum account was reactivated. Yay for foruma ccount.

About 10 minutes a go, I posted(on the AWA forums) that nobody has given me information on my registration status at this point, yet.
I explained my situation, I am getting on the plane tomorrow morning, I will not have internet access after that AT ALL, I NEED TO KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON.

AT this point, a "We lost your file and we admit it, so you're going to have to wait in line again" would be fine(as longa s I at least get $10 off it, since I ALREADY PAID THIS LAST YEAR) as long as I know wtf is going on.

Okay, so I'm getting desperate. Topic wasn't even up for five minutes, okay, and somebody DELETED IT. They DELETED my thread. They didn't give me a PM, or an email, or anything. They just deleted it.

WHAT THE FUCK.

At this point, somebody give me a fucking number I can call or something, because I've been going to AWA since 2001, and I really don't want to start boycotting it now.

SO SOMEBODY PLEASE email and tell me SOMETHING. Even if it's bad news JUST LET ME FUCKING KNOW ABOUT IT.

Edit: Okay, awaadmin emailed me again, but just witha "We're looking ito it still". Thank you for that. I guess. X|

Beats being "moved" out of the con hotel! Get me my room back at the waverly and I'll pay for your badge!
I have sinned. I made a video I wanted to make that was music + anime + sync + action + effects/transitions. Oh lordy. :roll:

The only reason I'm making such a huge deal otu of this is that:
a.) I had to walk-in reg last year because my parents sucked, so I paid the extra money so I didn't have ot wait three hours ot get my badge(again).
b.) I'm a student, and I'm broke, and I have physically depraved myself of a lot of meals to go to this thing. So scrounging up whatever enourmous(yet perfectly viable) fee they have for walk-in registration this year will put a HUGE dent in my pocket.

If I was in the financial situation I was in last year, maybe I wouldn't be SO anal about it. But this year I really need to save that money. =(

As for being moved out, Fluxxy.. Wow. I don't know how that could possibly work out, but.. There's, uh. jbone's hotel room(s).
Being moved out sucks. =(

Apparently a lot of people are being moved out of the con hotel... 2 days before the con... I cannot think of how angry most people must be. It didn't sound like a small number of people either...

Just in case they delete my topic over at AWA forums again, this is what I posted. Please somebody let me know what's going on. ;_;

One more time.

I leave in one hour for my flight(I am currently in florida), and after that I won't have any internet.

AWA Staff, I sent an email regarding my(Kris Hatfield AKA SQ) membership/registration status on the 17th of september. I sent this email to info@awa-con.com

No one replied back to me, so I went to a-m-v.org and worked through them to get an answer of "We're looking into it." Well, I need to know what's going to happen one way or the other, now.

If you lost my registration form from last year that is fine, maybe we can come up with some sort of compromise - maybe $10 off walk-in reg(since I paid the extra $10 last year for pre-reg), or sort something out so I might have to pay the full price again but not wait in the regular walk-in registration line... Whatever.

I just need to know what the status is now! I don't want any surprises when I come to the con TONIGHT.

I posted a long, concise thread about this problem with more information yesterday, but it was DELETED with NO REASON within five minutes of it's posting.

I was on the forums, and I looked for my topic; it was gone. My post history now has zero posts(again). I was never PMed or emailed as to WHY the topic was deleted, or even that it was deleted at all.

I can't say I'm very happy with AWA right now, the least you could've done was PM me the reason why you deleted my post.

Anyway, I get in a taxi at 9am. So at 8:50am ish, EST, I will have no internet for the rest of the weekend.

So PLEASE TELL ME WHAT IS GOING ON.

If you need to contact me personally, I'm going to give out my phone number. Just for you guys. C'mon. PLEASE JUST LET ME KNOW WHAT'S HAPPENING.

seven seven zero, three seven five, five eight eight two.

My flight leaves at 11:09 so up until then you can call me, I guess. There are a long list of reasons and complaints as to why I'm going to the airport at 9, but.. There's no point in listing them.
