Newbie questions about autograph queues

[triplefrog]

First time going to a collectormania, wanted to ask some basic questions about autograph queues .

1) Is there an individual line for each guest or are there lines for groups of people like say the footballers or Game of Thrones actors where there is one line and you get all the autographs in one go?

2) Is the virtual queue number system used for all signers or only the popular ones?

3) If the virtual queue system is only used for the more popular signers is it announced in advance who these are or do you find out after entering the show?

Really looking forward to this.

1. Individual lines
2. It's for the more popular guests, usually if they're £20 or more
3. No, unfortunately not

Hope that helps, triple.

1. Individual lines for each guest

2. Only busy guests will use VQ

3. It is not announced in advance as it can change on the day

Thanks for the information. Even though it's individual queues are signers from the same show or same sport close to each other? Hoping to minimize the amount of time spent trying to find where the people I want to meet are!

I believe Sm do try to do this, but it can be hard when people are known for multiple things.

Also if there is one 'big' name from a show/movie/etc and a few smaller ones they may not be together to facilitate better queue management for the likely-to-be-busier guest
