so we got our acceptances ages ago right

contracts just went out on wednesday

at the time the contracts were drafted badges were still... $55, I think?

and we're all just now getting to actually pay for our tables

but at this time badges are $70-- it supposedly went up in price this morning but when I tried to pay on wednesday it told me that price even though it should have still been $65

there've been several emails about this and there's no way for us to get like discounted badge prices apparently so we just have to pony up lol which for those of us who need two badges is, you know, $140

on top of the $100 table fee

I don't know why they sent the contracts out so hilariously late

but this sucks lol

I should have just bought badges sooner but I didn't think about it bc I'm so used to cons including badges w/ table cost

wait, they don't?

include badge w/table cost, that is

nope, they never have

w h a t

I’m really baffled, when I went two years ago they were excellent about communication and stuff but I think the AA head position has changed hands

so here we are very close to the con and a couple months after lottery selection and contracts are just now going out
