Xenomorph Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Hello, please fix the autograph virtual queues. They're far too long. They're allowing queues to form deep into the hallway with waits of around 1 hour +. This defeats the whole purpose and efficiency of virtual queuing. Ideally, the queue should end at the notice board which is around a 20-25 minute wait. It's just a mess otherwise and they're not even checking ticket numbers any more. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starbuck73 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 (edited) Please speak to the pit crew at the venue. The mods for the forum can’t do anything from here & are likely too busy to check the forum every 5 minutes.

charliechuck71 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 are any of the mods on the forum not actually at the venue as we speak? i sincerely hope this is fixed for tomorrow as what is the point of VQ's then? think i'll need to invest in a taser gun for tomorrow!

What do you mean? Do you mean that every queue has no longer got the VQ system running? So every queue is an open one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No very sadly not Its why we are reiterating if you see any issues please please go to the organisers booth, they will be able to do something about it immediately whereas if it comes to us on the forum there will be a delay in us seeing the post and communicating it to the venue.

Kyvire Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Just setting the record straight here, there's still VQs where necessary, but Nick Castle has hardly any queue left. I don't know who else had a hard time with the VQs, that's just who I've seen mentioned on here 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charliechuck71 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 showmasters never realised how popular nick castle is, now they know it needs to be fixed for the next 2 days as Saturday and Sunday will be twice as busy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was on VQ. Not much more they can do despite asking him to speed up a little - and if he doesn't want to do that what should they do, threaten him with a Freddy glove? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen_Sindel Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Update from TooTall: The VQ system has NOT been abandoned. The only issue he is aware of is the Meat Loaf queue because people refuse to leave. I will get another update later. Xenomorph Diabolik: I would appreciate more details please, then I can follow up. TooTall will raise the length of queue issue tomorrow in crew briefing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Persephone1 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 The VQ ticketing system was working perfectly fine for Jason Momoa & Zachary Levi. Only issue they could do with fixing for tomorrow is calling diamonds in number order in batches of 20. The Tom Baker queue was getting a tad unruly. To be fair they fixed that for his photo shoot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tenaciouspirit Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Yeah, the only queue I personally saw issues with was Meat Loaf. Everyone else I saw looked well managed all day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitai Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 This is starting to really make me anxious :/ Due to health (mental and physical) issues I can only attend on the Sunday - yes, Ive applied for the Access pass - I literally cannot stand in a huge queue for hours, and I would be likely to suffer severe anxiety at doing so........As it stands I am fearing my batch no.18 for a photo with Mr Momoa, will not be reached in time, I have NO chance it seems of getting a VQ ticket for an auto with him either Plus, I am unsure if I will need a VQ for an Aidan Turner auto, if I have a DP? This si beginning to stress me so much I am on the point of cancelling . I am agoraphobic as well as the other issues so this is a really big deal for me, but to be able to meet the 2 people I have followed for years, is worth it......

EllaBlair Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 I'm in Meatloaf's queue and it is a mess. Crew members are complaining about diamonds showing up. I have extra help and I've been here for about 20 minutes waiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will get your photo, and very likely the autograph too. Jason's agent gets people through at lighting speed if necessary. If you have the extrahelp band you go after Diamonds for photos. With Aidan's Diamond Pass you do not need a VQ ticket for Aidan. Read the FAQ for VQ tickets please. You will not have to stand in line for hours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebster118 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Did have one minor issue with Lance Henrikson’s queue. The blue shirt handing out the tickets took my ticket and the blue shirt asked for my ticket. I told her what happened and she said I was supposed to give my VQ ticket.

Yes, apparently those asked to leave the queue said they “would do anything...but they won’t do that...” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
