Registration Blues (was: In future prevent the proxy error when regestring)
redwolf:
It might be just worth two cents but...
I can't really agree with what Cookie suggested since I feel that basing the registration ‘chances’ on money would maybe bring a negative ‘spirit’ on the convention. For some people attending, paying the standard fare is already a lot of cash to find and putting them aside on that sole reason would seem a bit ‘unfriendly’ to me.
As I think it is 100 % normal there's pre-registration for the staff people who give their time to the convention and to (whom I think we are all grateful for all the work they do), I don’t think people choosing sponsor option do it for ‘bonuses’ but more to help by putting a little extra money in to help financially the convention.
But as someone official mentioned (can’t recall if that was Cheetah), they are looking for a bigger location to avoid the ‘registration lottery’ but it is for sure a hard task. We should better wish them luck for it!
Nightfox:
Don't worry, there will be no early register for sponsors.
That would be more than unfair.
Cookie:
Hey, it was just a question, as i saw it was in application in other types of conventions...
Never said it was fair or not (i actually think it is unfair)...
Just asking.. that's all :)

T-mobile 3G datacard... 19 minutes of attempting to load the reg page... registration number 854... long waiting list... looks like I won't be able to go this year then :(
It appears that EF is now a con for those with proper broadband connections!
Runo:
1. Only this time
2. You can still get a space if you sleep in another hotel in Suhl.
3.Well... your fault if you didn't tell anybody with a "real" connection to enter your data. It was clear there'd be a huge load on the servers :P
