Raylenth Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 He was, as always, insanely lovely. Got photo & selfie over the desk. Would be nice if the people manning his queue remembered that golds need a VQ though. My friend has a numbered ticket & ive watched loads of golds go through without If they are letting them through remind the crew about it. Just have a polite quiet word with them.

Littlemisstrouble6179 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 I told them when I was there as well that golds need a vq but they said they hadnt been told that they thought golds got priority Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen_Sindel Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 I told them when I was there as well that golds need a vq but they said they hadnt been told that they thought golds got priority Then ask them to get their pit boss or go to the organisers booth. We have reported it back like Stuart has already said, but it is way easier to solve this in person at the show than it is for us to try and message and get a response.

Littlemisstrouble6179 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Sorry didn't think to do that - will do if I see it tomorrow -they must've been around but I don't actually remember seeing any in that area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pit bosses have red tshirts on so they stand out a bit more. They usually have headsets on as well and are often quite rushed so you have to attract their attention but do do it if there is an issue as they can help.

As myself and QS have posted in other threads tonight if anyone sees this going on please notify a pit boss who will be able to deal with this there and then.

posey1234 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 I don't understand why its such a problem tbh is it going to be the same with photos nxt we will have to get a vq for photos at the end of the day golds this year have had changes anyway with instead of photo vouchers we get talks even though we get them included anyway except the game of thrones don't understand what all the fuss is about to be honest the gold tickets aint exactly cheep either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raylenth Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 The changes to the photo vouchers are a separate issue. The issue here is that Gold passes should not have any priority with diamond pass guest, so by letting them through before they should they are potentially preventing people with lower VQ tickets but no gold pass getting through as those gold holders going through have essentially taken their place and jumped the queue.

posey1234 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 just making my point about the photos at the end of the day if they dnt like it they could always get a gold ticket then problem solved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raylenth Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Not sure I'm following you. The issue isn't with the photo's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
declan15678 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Just wondering if anybody who met Mads today noticed what pictures are available there. Any from Rogue one or bond etc? :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Persephone1 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 just making my point about the photos at the end of the day if they dnt like it they could always get a gold ticket then problem solved Uh no. Gold should not get any priority with diamond autos. Not everyone can afford a gold pass. If a person gets there early & gets a low VQ ticket they shouldn't lose their chance because an endless stream of gold pass holders have jumped the queue. That's certainly what happened today. When we left at 3:30 Mads was only at 130 VQ. And whilst I appreciate the suggestion that we should go grab a pit boss if we see this issue come on guys-there's a tiny handful of diamond guests, brief the people in charge of their queue that the only ones with priority have a pass around their neck. I'm currently feeling slightly disinclined to buy diamond again as this is a recurrent issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen_Sindel Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 The vq issue should not have happened. It will be clarified again in tomorrow's crew briefing to ensure it does not happen again. Confirmed by TooTall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
