I think I'm finally done with SDCC.

Looking at the pricing, a 4-day pass is more expensive than buying 4 one-days, if Sunday is only 23.

Now they're going to completely overcrowd the already overcrowded Manchester and I'm just...I'm sick of them and their bullshit.

Looks good to me. If people only buy tickets for the days they want to go, then maybe there will actually be enough 4-day passes this year. Also, it looks like you can get a 4-day pass without preview night, which is great, I couldn't care less about preview night.

To preregister for next year, do you have to have a four day pass this year? Also, can you buy tickets for more than one person at a time? And if one of the other people that you're buying for is, say 60, do they need to be there to prove they're 60 (to get the senior discount)?

This is something I'd LOVE to know the answer to! I have to miss con this year because I'm deployed overseas, and am hoping and praying that my family or friends are able to register me. If preview night sells out at con again and I can't get it, I'll be kinda upset.

I think you can buy for anyone of any age, it's only when they pick the badge up in 2012 that ID will need to be shown to prove they're a senior.

Ahh, that makes sense!! Good. Actually, that means my mom might be able to get a senior pass, too because she'll be 60 by next year.

I hope someone is able to get your pass for you!!!

The price is really becoming too much for me. I'm thinking I may not go next year. I understand what they are doing but still most people don't know what will be on each day until it is close to comic con. I think people will buy out the one day passes before the 4 day just to save a few bucks.

Maybe I'm just old. I remember $35 4-day badges and $100 a night hotel rooms. This will be my first year sitting it out in probably 15 years. The organization gets worse, the lines get longer and it gets more expensive each year :(
