Autograph ticket

[SoazicAml]

I wonder why I can’t buy a autograph ticket for Amanda tapping at the film and comic con 2022. Do you know if it’s because it’s sold out or it’s because it’s not in sale for this moment ?

U can't. U pay for autographs on the day, u will have to take a VQ ticket and wait to b grrovily called called tho. Unless u want an autograph pre-order if u can't make the event

Virtual Queue ticket - it's a numbered ticket that will have the guests name on.  You collect it from their signing desk so as soon as you get into the venue, go to the autograph area, find her desk and ask for one from the crew member at her desk handing them out.  

This ticket and number represent your place in the queue and it means you can go off and do other stuff rather than have to stand in one queue for ages until you get to the front.  It also means they can keep the queue's manageable.  Once you have your VQ ticket, you just come back every once in a while, check the white board that will be around her desk somewhere, and you can join the real queue any time after your number is on the board.  The whiteboard will call people like this - VQ 1-30, and then VQ 1-60, VQ 1-90 and so on.

They use the VQ system for most guests who are over £30 so if there's any other people you want auto's from as well, make sure you go and get VQ tickets for all of them before you do anything else.

If a guest is a Diamond Guest, Diamond ticket holders get priority, and they will only start calling VQ tickets after all the Diamond passes have been called.

It's really very simple.

Well, simple-ish.

Ok, some aspects can be a little confusing.

The worst thing is, this is only a slight exaggeration!

In all seriousness, I can't imagine much problems with you getting her autograph, SoazicAml. The guests who tend to have really horrific VQ lines are the ones who are first-time signers, like Jodie Whittaker was at the Spring LFCC.

It's always hard as it is really easy of you know how it works, but trying to explain it is a bit like solving a complex maths problem

Why do they call it a virtual queue, though? There's bugger all virtual about it! They give you a paper ticket, and physically write on a wipeable board what numbers they're up to! Hardly high tech...

“Virtual” doesn’t have to mean it involves technology. You are in a a queue without having to be in a queue. That’s the virtual part.

Fair enough. I apologise and retract my previous statement then!
