I just bought my ticket. The website seems to be having problems. I kept having to go back and try again several times, but patience was a virtue.

Website is crap but it is possible. Just ignore the script errors when you register your account then reload the pages. If you fiddle with it enough, it'll finally update your order to allow you to order online. I got my ticket this time.

Yuppers, I had the same problem myself. I thought it was just a temporary issue when I was purchasing. Well, I don't mind a little annoyance for the virtually non-existant price of the tickets. I look forward to seeing y'all there.

I'm working on that right now. Since I'm going, I guess I can take care of official ANN coverage.

To anyone that goes to Houston: "Ask him if he'll make the Samurai Champloo movie!"
