FWA Preorders? Ehhh...Maybe.
10 years ago
With FWA only two weeks away, the chance for me opening any badge preorders is very slim, given I still have TFF badges that require my attention first (and to those commissioners, I am still incredibly grateful for your patience while I worked through some seriously hellish hours at my full-time job these past few weeks).
If I DO happen to open, it will most likely be this weekend or late next week for a very limited number of slots--I'm thinking 5 or 6 max--and some badge styles will be excluded from preorders only because they take longer than others.
As with the TFF preorders, because the prices are lower and slots are limited, I will be going into a raffle if there are more requests than there are slots, just to keep things fair for everyone. And also, as before, those who do not win one of the slots will still be offered the preorder price BUT their badge will not be finished in time for FWA.
I will also be doing something new this time around: If you are NOT attending FWA, you will need to say so. This is because it seems a bit unfair if we do a raffle and you win a slot ready before FWA yet are not attending, and then someone who IS attending FWA but doesn't get one of the slots is now waiting 'til after FWA for their badge. Make sense? I think so.
Also, as before, you can request as many badges as you'd like; HOWEVER, only ONE of the badges will be offered at the preorder price; you have your choice as to which badge you requested you'd like to pay the preorder price on, and the others will be at full price and finished after all other preorder priced badges are complete. ALSO, as before, you can request multiple badges/styles, but your name will only go into the raffle ONCE, to avoid those folks requesting a million badges just to increase their chances of winning a slot.
TL;DR? FWA preorder badges are a maybe; may open for 5-6 slots; if more than 5-6 people want a badge, the same raffle rules apply! WHEE.
