Attendance Question
« on: February 13, 2010, 07:51:20 PM »
I was one of the unlucky ones who had to wait for parents to approve of me traveling up to Harrisburg, buying my spot, etc. Sadly, me and one of my friends who were supposed to go up there with our group didn't make the cut.

Does anyone who's been to FITES before have any feedback on attendance averages? Do people sometimes not show up or relinquish their seats?

Anything would be helpful, i'm trying to find an open seat if there will be any in the future.

We cannot guarantee that there will be any spots. All I can say is that last year, 23 people paid and did not show up. if your friend wants, he can -TRY- to get a seat but it`ll cost the door price of $55 and he may drive up only to find there are no spots at all.

Just be on the lookout for people who are selling seats. There are a few instances, where things come up and people can't make it at the last minute.

Yup. Like last year, my sister was slated to come but we had a death in the family down south so she obviously couldn't make it, so I sold off her seat.

Just keep an eye out as things do happen.

Four seats might be a bit difficult. But if there is adequate power, you will be notified by email if the staff happens to make more seats. First come. First serve. But we are about 2 weeks away so don't get discouraged.

AGAIN, Tibs...

Tibs, and for anyone reading Tibs' responses to LAN questions, you are not part of staff, please do not respond to these questions in a manner that attempts to portray such position. If you give out inaccurate information it will not only serve to confuse the poser of the question, but also make the FITES organization look bad.

tibs we appreciate you posting on the forums but you NEED to take that quote to heart. Really. No. Really. If we see this happen again I will take steps so you're only allowed to post in the Jokes and Fun forum where no serious talk goes on. Please respond to this post or PM me to tell me you saw this and understand. Got it?

I think she already sold herself.  Those SG girls don't do that Crap for free.
That's Mr. Deception to you.
