Hi All,
Just touching base with you all. Can you check page 1 and make sure you are on the list if you are planning on coming to dinner. If you change your mind at any stage try to let me know please.
Squeeeeeeeeeee 😎😀😎😀
Hi Beckney and StargateGazer,
Thanks and welcome to the group. We did have a great time last year and it was a good way to kick off the weekend and meet newbies. The guest line-up looks excellent once again and I can't wait to catch up with friends and make new friends too! *biting my tongue trying not to squee to early*
Thanks guys you encouraged me I just purchased a gold ticket and put the very last room at the hotel on hold.... Hopefully it will be a blast I'm super excited to go to my first convention
Any tips or info or interesting shares feel free to message me and keep me in the know

Once again we have negotiated a discount with Harbour Air on airfares for travel by seaplane between Vancouver and Victoria as well as their scenic tours
I guess my phone doesn't work well with this site. Anyway, I can add a ticket but there is a great area at the bottom of the screen that says something like...

This gray area must block the continue button because I can find no way to get past this page.
If anyone in charge csis, feel free to save me a silver ticket. I'd hate if they were all sold out by tomorrow. 😁
I have a question for someone who's knowledgeable about Transferwise. This is for a friend. Is it possible to cancel a completed Transferwise transaction for a Gatecon ticket and then start over?
It looks like I will, unfortunately, not be able to attend the 2018 convention, especially after looking over the ticket options. The prices are actually comparable (only slightly cheaper) to that of a typical Creation convention yet they don't give you an assigned seat within the block and, unlike Creation, photo ops are now tied to which ticket tier you have? Yeah, I understand there is a big difference between what Creation can afford and what Gatecon can afford, but as a consumer there's only so much I can afford and spending essentially the same as a Creation ticket and getting what is comparably a glorified general admission ticket with added restrictions does not seem like the value received matches the money paid.
I would only be ready to commit to a ticket if Richard Dean Anderson was confirmed to make a return appearance but, if I'm understanding the new setup properly, if it turned out I was only able to get the Copper tickets (which is the actually more expensive than Creation's Copper ticket) I would essentially be lucky to get into a photo op because I would have to wait for everybody else with a higher tier? I can understand Platinum getting priority access, but I really think having to go in order of ticket tier is a recipe for disaster, especially since at the Homecoming it tried to order the photo ops by rows and gave up several hours in.
I'm also not too keen on the payment system, it just seems like jumping through too many hoops to get a ticket. But I wish everybody the best and hope everybody has an incredible time.
We think alike. RDA will not be there. It was announced on the Gatecon FB page. For the platinum tickets, it only takes 12 people requesting 2 seats and that takes up the front row. The time zones are problems for US attendees. I noticed that many people were able to send in emails before the West Coast was awake. Back in the day, I almost volunteered for Creation events until I saw some unnerving behind the scenes stuff. Hope you do change your mind.

Hey guys I´m not sure if this is the right place to ask, but first of all English isn't my mother tongue, so please be indulgent to my mistakes. Ok so I´m from Germany and my Sister and me thinking about to travel next Year to Vancouver (for the first Time) for joining the Gatecon (for the first Time). Actually if we will do this..this will be our first Convention ever. So my question right now is can I buy Tickets from Germany too?And if yes how...and when will the tickets be aviable to buy? And do I have to take a room in the same Hotel the con will be placed or can I take another Place to stay? Ok maybe thats just many stupid questions but I really really hope that someone has the mercy to answer me.
I'm wondering the same thing as PamK1950.
I'm #9 on the list and my t sounds as if I probably have no chance if the first 8 want 3-4 tots.
So bummed...ll😭
I'm #32, but they are going to be pulling random numbers so there is a chance of being able to get a platinum. It all depends on how many tickets are "taken" when they get to your number.
If I'm interpreting this correctly let say they pull numbers 3, 20, 44, 9, 32, 17, 10, 13 etc. If #3, 20 & 44 each get five tix, there would be ten left when it's your number.
If you get two tix there would be eight left when it's my turn. I'm just getting one, so we're down to seven for #17.
If #17, 10 and 13 buy the remaining tickets, everyone else will be put on a waiting list in case someone doesn't pay or make payment arrangements within the 14 day allotted time period
(Don't quote me on this, this is just my interpretation of what they posted)
how bad is it that i'm itching to start with Invasion Volunteers organisation? XD *facepalm*
that will be a LONG wait
We have 4 round tables all set at Harold's. Wishing everyone safe travels to Gatecon. See you all very soon!
