Can I ask why the pre-reg price has been upped $10 this year from $30 to $40? (Or why the 3 Day pass is now $50?) It seems a bit dramatic to me... blink.gif

Basically it boils down to two changes.

1. The weekend price went up $5. This is the first price increase in our weekend price in I believe over 4 years and I am pretty sure is less then inflation.

2. I was told to switch back to 2 pre-registration periods rather then 3 (Which is what we had in years prior to 2010).


The switch to 2 pre-reg periods means 2 discounts. so the $50 only drops to $40.

We only had the third period last year which only lasted about a month because the $30 price was announced and it wouldn't be fair to announce a price and not honor it.


I don't know how to answer other then to say it is related to the rising expenses in running the convention as we try to bring more events guests and activities for the con goer.
