Best Time to Pick Up Pre-Registration Badge

[redneckotaku.livejournal.com]

I have heard the lines are horrendous during Thursday and Friday for Pre-Registration pick up. Is there a good time to go pick up your registration during those days (where the line is under 45 minutes or so)? Should I try at 10 PM on Thursday night or just wait until later Friday and spend most of Thursday and Friday seeing Atlanta itself? Thanks for the thoughts on this.

Then why is the FB saying they are open until 11??

Unless it's a misprint, they probably are open until 11. But that means they want to FINISH the line by then, so they always close the line off at least an hour earlier, sometimes sooner. Otherwise it would be an endless queue. They'd either end up open all night, or will have to say "too bad, come back tomorrow" right to the face of whoever had the bad luck to get to the front at closing time.

If I had to venture a guess, I'd say they will stay open to take care of anybody still in line up until 11 pm.

But I can tell you from personal experience that last year they were not letting anybody get in line after 10 pm.
