Convention People - quick question

[Epic Conventions]

I need the input of convention go-ers here.

If you are buying a weekend pass to a convention, would you rather just get a simple hand stamp and go through registration again on day 2 of the show?

Or would you rather get an ID wrist band, but be forced to wear it for the weekend?

personally I like the badges, but out of the two here, wristbands for sure.

[Epic Conventions]

Badges will be for a future convention...takes a bit too much out of the budget this year

Going through registration twice, depending on how many people are there would be a pain in the butt.

A wrist band is the last thing anyone whats for a multiday event.

Still, requeuing can actually be worse. Your decision should be based on your capacity to process people rather than a poll on a board. If the line to get in the second day is anything unreasonable, avoid this.

Makes sense...we'll be able to process people without much delay...But still a delay. The wristband eliminates that delay...but you have to wear it for 2 days.

The Decision has been made, but there is time to change it if necessary. So I guess I am just looking for input as to what people think would be the lesser of 2 evils.

Out of the two, wristbands. Registration can be hassle when it comes to bigger cons.

[Spidey616]

Yup, going with wristbands

Why don't you just issue them two tickets at registration, and they get their handstamped upon redemption of tickets at the door?

Not a bad idea Steve. Gold star for you!
