    195 Signed up, will soon break 200 signups!!!!

    If you prepay you are definately in, you can still make it into the official list even if you havent signed up at all!

    The only way to secure your spot at GameCon is to pre-pay (or turn up at 8AM )

    All of those on the waiting list are more than welcome to attend, the sooner you turn up in the morning the more chance you have of securing a spot.

    It is strongly recommended if you are travelling from a distance / coming after 9am that you prepay.

    You can send a postal order or cheque. Also for the next one a direct bank transfer will be possible, so that means anyone with cash can walk into any bank and transfer the money to the account :)
