A suggestion for C5:

with guest ticket numbers changing (ie which numbers can now get autographs) I think it would be wise for SM to use an announcement system and not rely on the boards on each side of the hall, because people usually hang around infront of the boards and you either cannot see what numbers are current, or the boards have not been updated, or you might be in another queue   :help: Anyway just a suggestion but the current system I felt let down C4.

That was used at C3, this is not the Showmasters fault but you couldn't hear it anyways.  I always found it was easier just going up to the queue of whatever guest and checking out there what ticket numbers they are up to, as it is that which is kept up to date.

It's okay to suggest that we should just check the ends of queues, but what happens when you can't get to the ends of queues to see because of all the shoppers standing in stupid places.

If the ropes for each queue were extended slightly, especially at the car park end where there is the big plant arrangment about six foot from the start of queues it might allow us to get near them.  I personally think that roping off a larger area than required might make things a little easier - you can't get into the queues unless you have a ticket, so a steward could be standing at the start of the ropes controlling everything - oooh the power!

jango, helpful. very helpful

Roping off areas in C4 was great apart from you could not get to the stewart at the end of the queue as there were so many shoppers just watching and standing about, definately put the ropes around the planted areas as well. At least then you could get to a queue.

How about roping off the area to the plants, allow people with tickets for any of the guests along that side in to a pool area, and then into the specific queue as necessary. if you know what i mean  :unsure:

I liked LFACC, at least they were big and clear then ... maybe if they put the numbers quite HIGH at the end of queues on boards then people can see over the crowds etc  :o

Stef and James posted on the Virtual Queue Tickets threads that all going well the tickets at C5 will have the name of the guest on them so a ticket system like the one at LFCC could be very likely.
