New GenCon Registration procedures

The following is from GenCon's web site:

Gen Con Announces a New Registration System

Gen Con was given an opportunity on January 5th for the development of a new registration system. This is a brand new, adaptable system that promises to be flexible and agile enough to grow with us rather than against us. Gone are the days of the system crashing, difficulty searching events and slow performance. While we will be developing the system as we go, we strongly feel the pros far outweigh the cons. You spoke, we listened, and now we all have a new registration system.

What does this mean to you? Well, it means you will need to create a new account in the new system by going to registration.gencon.com, starting next week. Also, please note that Badge Registration has been pushed to Sunday, February 15th at 12:00 pm (ET) and Hotel Registration will go live on Tuesday, February 17th at 12:00 pm (ET), due to the Monday holiday. More information on account creation and registration will be coming soon!

We thank you in advance for your patience and apologize for the short notice of this announcement. We are very much aware of what this type of development schedule means, and there will undoubtedly be some hiccups along the way. We know you will have lots of questions; we will keep you posted as developments arise.

We are very excited about this opportunity and know you will be too!

here are the new schedules:
Badge Pre-Registration begins Sunday, February 15, 2009 at 12:00 pm (ET).
Housing opens Tuesday, February 17, 2009 at 12:00 pm (ET).
Event Pre-Registration begins Sunday, April 19, 2009 at 12:00 pm (EST).
Both Badge and Event Pre-Registration will end at 11:59 pm (EST) on June 27, 2009.
