    The venue actually did numbered wristbands in Ottawa. You got one when you showed up.

    Still surprised management allowed it unless they’ve altered their policy going forward.

    It seemed to go ok. I know there were a few bumps in the process with some people near the front, but I thought it went pretty orderly. But I don't have other GA shows to compare it to :)

    Yeah there were three numbers that didn’t really exist cuz people were trying to run game. The subterfuge didn’t last. Most of us can count.

    That's right. We all moved up three spots. Also, I didn't see it, but someone told me that this guy a few spots ahead of him had written the number 45.5 on his wristband. Like the venue people wouldn't notice that.

    What the fuck people. Makes me wonder what else people like that do in their lives.

    I put my time in in 2012 (prior to the no number 10c rule) and was 1. Still had to argue with some line jumpers. Another time delt with straight up politics and liers. Not very rock and roll.  Honestly stressful. Most people are cool. It's just a handful that can ruin the vibe if you let it.
    Have fun if you go.
