I think I will be able to make Kubla - it's on a weekend I'd normally have off. They won't give me a straight answer on if I got the vc I requested off. Gen Con falls on a weekend I'd normally work unfortunately. I noticed the price for a badge at gen con is only $10 more than the pre-reg price. That might work for me if I need a cpl months to find out if I can go. Do badges sell out?
