Once again, The prepaid line was extending out the building, while noticing the confirmed players had NO LINE. Fundamentally, We're the people that are your safeguard in money terms anyway. The sad thing is that this happened last LAN. Each line consisted of 2 validating team members, the same same as last LAN. Wouldn't you of learnt from the mistake last LAN - Which I made a clear note of last time I put my two cents in. I prepay for the extra benefits that entitles a greater assist over non prepaying members. I expect these benefits (I assume a faster validation is one of them.)
Queenie and myself do the pre-paid check-ins, the line is caused by ones that just stand there or the slackers that are too lazy to even bother writing down the bar code or printing it which results in us having them log into respawn site so we can check they are who they say they are other wise we have no idea at all. Sure a 3rd hand might help speed up the process slightly, but again if people fail to write/print bar code then existing problem will just continue.
I guess we could punish said people by not allowing them pre-paid next event, but i don't really see this fixing or helping improve the situation.
Exactly. And with that, I assume that's what happened last time, correct? Ultimately you can't change everyone. Personally I usually print mine, but my printer has decided to malfunction - not the point. What you could do is improvise.
I.E - An extra hand in validating.
- One less hand in the confirmed line so it at least looks even.
- Perhaps even someone going around confirming prepaid players before the doors open, that would take the shrink the massive line.
Ultimately the only thing punishing people would do is take away potential profit, losing the LAN money, etc.
OR
Punishing everyone would change the balance of the lines.
