Is John trying to sculpt a Cosmo?
Hopefully the offer to pre-reg for long time members is taken from a snapshot of today - before any post race starts (as I post 2 in this thread)..........

Flooding posts now, after the news letter has gone live won't help anyone who is looking to secure a set and joined the board for that sole reason. It's the only fair way to do it, otherwise we would have a million members who make one post and then expect to be able to get on of the early bird sets.
I'm sure most of the usual people on this site will agree that's fair.
Remember, production has gone up this year by 25%, so anyone in the past who was maybe intimidated about the rumors the guys lining up at 12:00 am the night before to secure a set, they will have a better chance of getting a set this year.

I know I will still line up! Maybe not so early.

No one knows what the "minimum amount of posts" number is at this point anyway. And registration for new accounts on the site is locked, until after the 25 sets are pre-sold. I'll make a post about this later on.

I had requested that there be a minimum amount of posts required before the pre-registration started.

Wasn't his name lent to Dusty as a tribute...or something like that?
2) Also like the possibility of regulars getting an early crack at registration. I do enjoy the line-up though... I line up every year anyway, so I'm not worried. Would help some of the long distance guys and allow for more sleep... ;D
3) Double army builder....timbit given for responding to the fan requests!

But will there be another more limited exclusive like the SNAKE?
NO. 100% without a shadow of a doubt - NO.
As I've stated MANY times. That SNAKE was supposed to be with the con set. Problems happened and we had 50 done. So, it became a bonus item.

@ The Mike: When will we get to select the questions that we submitted for Zach Hoffman aka Zartan?
You guys don't, we do. Questions already sent in.
Post by: pdaat on April 20, 2011, 08:49:23 PM
You are correct. Both Mr. Rudat and Dusty share their first name. Dusty's surname is Tadur or Rudat backwards.

Have a great time at the con, guys!

Ron Rudat... I can't wait to meet him! Now what do get him to sign? My Dusty filecard or my Leatherneck filecard? Decisions, decisions...
