I have received several emails from people that missed the registration
deadline and wondered if it was to late. Our goal was to have people register
early so that we could plan the best event possible. We will be accepting late
registration until June 22nd. A $5 late fee will be added to any registration
received after that date and does not guarantee the full pre-registration pack.
If you want a t-shirt we will need your order in by June 25th. We will not be
ordering more shirts than those specifically requested. If you did not order
one it is not to late,you my fill out the t-shirt order form at
http://www.brickfest.com/tshirt.html
The list of attendees has been updated
http://www.brickfest.com/listofpeople.html
If you have registered and would like a particular web address linked from your
name, please send it directly to me.

Christina,
I ordered a t-shirt when I registered and I was wondering if the design of the
t-shirt had been announced... and if not, then when will that be announced?

Hi folks,
I've been authorized by the Brickfest Events Coordinator to release the
following informantion on late registrations:
Nametags will be produced today, so getting registered by 12:00 est July
10th ensures that you get in the door and able to participate in the
activities. You probably will be able to pay your fee when you arrive if you
have registered late.
It basically comes down to this; if you don't register and just show up, you
may be left out (i.e., no promises). If you register and don't show up, we
will miss you greatly, but there will be a next time.
So, I hope to see you all at Brickfest 2001! It should be one hell of a
great time, with more things to do and see than you could possibly imagine
doing with Lego related events in one weekend. It will be something to tell
the grand-kids about.
Rich

What does this mean, exactly? Does this mean that no walk-ins will be
allowed into BrickFest?
I'm registered already, but a friend of mine may drop by just to walk
around and check things out... ( I actually doubt he will drop by, but
it was mentioned in passing once, so I am curious)

It is my personal interpretation that *if* you show up as an unregistered
person, you will not be able to participate in most of the actual events...
(k-8 building, MOC judging, etc.) and there are no guantees that you may
actually get in, depending on how many actually show up.
Let's suppose for a moment that 150 people actually register, and do show
up. Then 50 people who have not registered show up and want to wander
around. Who escorts them all? (I'm not super concerned about my MOCs, but if
we have people just wandering through in big numbers, I'd be somewhat
concerned about that). What if more than 50 *extras* show up? It starts to
become an issue.
If you friend thinks he wants to come, (or anyone for that matter,) register
now.
I don't wish to sound ominous about this. Brickfest is a non-profit
exposition. Security on the premissis costs nothing under I believe 150
people. If the number goes up, there is a fee. No one should be going into
the hole for this, especially anyone of our hosts in WAMALUG. If you are
thinking about it, please make a decision today, that's all.
Thanks for bearing with me.
Rich

Hmmm. All excellent points... I have no desire to stand guard over my
MOCs either. There's going to be far too much that I want to see! :-)
And I certainly wasn't intending to imply that WAMALUG should be "going
into the hole" for this ( to use your wording, no offense intended ).
When I was talking about walk-ins, I was expecting them to pay the $10
entry fee, same as the people that DID register. That only seems fair
to me.
In any case, I just IM'd my friend, and he won't be able to attend, so I
won't be registering him.
Thanks for clarifying, everything you said made perfect sense...

I'd like to clarify Rich's post. I know that there are several people that
plan on attending but for one reason or another just have not registered. I ask
that they please register. Also some people may have missed the note on the
registration page, "Please register each person separately." I have received
some email saying... "and so and so is attending with me ".. but I have not
gotten a registration from them so, they will not have a registration package
made for them. I'm not trying to bring anyone down, force anyone to do anything
they are opposed to doing or trying to get more people registered, it is purely
for logistical purposes.
And, Yes, at the door registration is accepted but we just want to make sure
that we can accommodate this group and the best way for me to do so is to have
as accurate a count as we could possibly get. Also, I will not be checking
email or the registration page Thursday or Friday. So, if you think you might
be coming and it is to your benefit to register ASAP.
