Grab a donut from Stan Mitka’s and complete this checklist to ensure you and your computer are ready for the Expo Logic waiting room and registration process.

Check your browser compatibility!

CLICK HERE to check your current settings. Explain to Garth very carefully how important it is to avoid using multiple tabs, private browsing, or incognito applications during your registration session. Only run ONE instance of the waiting room per registration code.

Be sure to use a laptop or desktop during Open Registration. Comic-Con cannot guarantee that mobile devices, including iPads and other tablets, will behave as expected.

You should also make sure that you have a reliable and secure internet connection so that you are not accidentally disconnected from the waiting room. And definitely do not use the Wi-Fi in Wayne’s parents’ basement!

Use our suggested browsers!

The Expo Logic waiting room and badge registration system have been tested on the browsers listed below:

Firefox: Any Version

Any Version Google Chrome: Any Version

Any Version Internet Explorer: Version 11

Version 11 Safari: Version 7 or later

Version 7 or later Microsoft EDGE: Any Version

Enable JavaScript and cookies!

These features are usually enabled in the default configuration of most modern web browsers – so most likely the answer to the question is “schwing!” However, double-checking is always a good idea!

Adjust your power saving settings!

Make sure to check your power-saving setting before you enter the Expo Logic waiting room. Avoid letting your computer go into sleep mode or powering down during your registration session.

Post photos of your registration session online! NOT!

Your personal registration code is embedded in the URL. Do not post pictures of your waiting room or registration session online. Benjamin Oliver surfs the internet for these photos, and if he finds one he will be able to use your code to enter and your session will expire. No stairway. Denied.

Are there any other ways I can gain an advantage in the Expo Logic waiting room?

Follow these tech tips to increase your chances of saying, “It will be mine, oh yes. It will be mine!” However, a little luck and a lot of patience will be your most powerful weapons during the Expo Logic badge registration process. If you are selected for a registration session, remember to read through each step carefully and don’t click through too quickly.

Well, that's all the time we had. We hope you found it entertaining, whimsical, and yet relevant. Party on.

Excellent.
