we can only hope.
even during the early morning looking out my window, I could see long lines formed on the street.

Amen!!!
We actually went to get our tickets Friday morning, took us less than an hour, but we were not pre-reg and paid cash. So not too bad.
I heard some people were in line over 3 hours.

4 hours. It was ridiculous.
Though, another friend picked up her badge on Saturday and it literally took her 5 minutes. Anyone know how long the Thursday early pickup lines were? I'd figure it's mostly the Friday lines that were so horrible.

We were in line Thursday morning, one hour after opening. We waited in line about 2 hours. The wait got worse as time passed. This is the biggest D*C crowd I've seen over the past 5 years. Hopefully the new proposed system will ease the growing pains. I even heard rumors about capping memberships sold but I hope it never comes to that. D*C's size has exploded in recent years and the volunteer staff is having to play catch-up. I really hope this is the road to an easier badge pick-up. We're taking 2011 off and will be back in 2012 to see if the new system is being used and having a positive effect.

It took us about an hour to wait for badge purchase on Friday morning. We paid with credit card. The cash line would have been the quicker option. It took far less time... We got into line around 11ish and were out just after noon...
The new proposed system sounds like it might help a bit...
