Red and white once again! We've restored the classic look of JoeCanuck.
Quote from: "canprime"That said I really think you need to put someone on the line right away. I know, I know, you guys have a ton to do, but it seems clear that someone assoicated with the con should be monitoring the line from the beginning. Whether that is Midnight, or 1am. They can hand out numbers/wristbands and take information on the people in line.Midnight/1 AM is hindsight. Nobody expected people to line up that early. And as a volunteer, your shitting me if you expect me to play line cop duty at that time and expect to stand up for the rest of the day and then go to the Taste of the Danforth.

Pete the Greek I commend you on having enough stamina to leave the convention and attend the Taste on the Danforth! WOOPAHH!
Was the line officially set? Then while it wasn't expected, the ability was there to tell people that the line was unofficial and would not be honored when an official one was set up at the announced time.
Quote from: "THE Mike™"CONVENTION BOX SET EXCLUSIVESAs per the Hotel’s request, there will be NO overnight “camping” for the exclusives.The earliest they would like people to line up is 6am. If the Sheraton staff asks you to leave prior to that time, we ask that you please respect their wishes and do so.

Quote from: "THE Mike™"Quote from: "pdaat"Hey Mike - how about not putting up the "Line Starts Here" sign until about 05:55 that morning. I think that would keep people away until close to 6am and relieve a lot of anxiety of Con Goers.And what about those that show up 20 minutes earlier and line up in the wrong spot? How do I handle the anger that they'll have for waiting already - even though I've asked that they don't until 6am? No. It stays the same as I have plenty more to oversee than the line-up.

Sorry to go off topic here but I wanted to post a question about this thread. I have only been on this forum for about a short time and wanted to know if this was the biggest thread of this forum with so may posts? If not which one is and can this one beat it?
Add a SNAKE and the 2010 CanJoeCon sets go for over $800. Wow. The other day 2 sets without the SNAKE went for just over $300. Is the SNAKE worth $500?
I don't think the SNAKE worth 500$. It's probably because the guy is giving a 25th Sanke Eyes.
800$!! cool.. a profit of 650$.. not bad at all!
