I'm not sure what you mean here.

Do you mean you have a ticket and they don't get up to that number? I think that happened at C4 for the Hobbits for some on Sunday.

If you notice too late that your number has been called already, you can still join the line afterwards.

I didn't have any problem with it last year, all you have to do is make sure you keep an eye out for your number group coming up on the boards...

:pyth: I had a problem with the John Rys Davies queue at his first appearance, they had given out the full supply of that day's tickets by the time I got there, same also with Elijah Wood and f I only just got in on the monday, the queing for virtual tickets started at about 7.30 am.

I have been going to Collectormania since C2 and I have yet to miss out on a guest I have got a ticket for. At C4 it was a close call with Elijah as I got a ticket at about 10am and didnt get to meet him till 4pm but apart from that I have always met guests within a few hours of getting a virtual ticket, just make sure you are there for about 9am and you should have a problem, people who turn up at 11/12 dont have much of a chance to meet the popular guests so if you really want to meet someone you know will be popular get there early.

I missed Elijah, Dom and Sean at C4 on the Sunday. Could have made it if we had waited a little longer, but wanted to get in the queue at the cinema for the talks.
I'm on Facebook if any Collectormania fans want to add me!!

Those who are afraid to fall never fly. How will you ever know if you never try? Might just reach your goals and every dream, you can never be sure, if not you learn from mistakes you made, at least you’ll wonder no more. The saddest thing is a life never lived. A desired task never tried. Wishing stars never wished upon, left floating in the sky. Dreams left as dreams, hopes and ambitions pushed to the back of ones mind. If you never speak you’ll never be heard. If you don’t seek, you’ll never find. Never let them tell you that you can’t, shouldn’t or couldn’t. Never give them the satisfaction of being the reason that you wouldn’t. Never let their jealousy or disbelief be the reason you won’t try. Don’t let the only time, you ever really fly, be the day you die...

I was in the queue to get into the centre at about 8am on the Sunday last year to get a Billy Ticket...

I had all my sigs, and got home but 4pm so that wasn't bad...

You can't really miss where to queue they have someone at the end of the majority of the queues, either giving out tickets for the virtual queuing or telling you where to go.
