BE ADVISED: WE ARE NO LONGER ACCEPTING ADVANCED TICKET FORMS!
YOU CAN STILL GET TICKETS AT THE DOOR FOR $40.00.
But for the nostalgic among us, the original form is provided
below. Sure it doesn't work, but
it's there so people can recall my piercing wit and wonder in awe
that people actually put up with
my silly questions and unnecessary bureaucracy. No one was more
surprised than I.
Advanced ticket form
Rubi Con 1999
Fill in all or as much information as you can. Anything in
red
is required for us to process your from. You can then click 'send' to
zap it off to the cold, sterile halls of the RCCC (Rubi Con Central
Command) central mainframe department where our banks of
supercomputers will use your verb usage and answers to assign you a
perfectly random number. At which point we will sit around waiting
for your check to arrive.
We cannot, of course, do anything with your ticket form until we get actual money. The advanced ticket price is $35.00, payable in cash, checks, or money orders. Please make all checks out to "Rubi Con."
REMEMBER TO SPECIFY WHO YOU ARE WHEN YOU SEND MONEY IN! This is a fairly significant detail that already more than a few people have failed to fully take into consideration. It might prove helpful to simply print out the form and mail it in along with cash or checks. Either way, address all correspondence to:
Rubi Con Tickets
P.O. Box 700341
Plymouth, MI 48170
We do not have a problem with people paying in cash, $35.00 is $35.00. I might request that foreign currencies be converted first, and that we will not be accepting creative equivalents to actual money. As in, please pawn your cookware for money instead of just mailing it to us.
There have been a few changes to our Ticket System of late. Firstly, we have abandoned the idea of physical tickets, and so we will no longer be asking people for their addresses. Concerns over privacy and a dislike of complexity have prompted this move.
We will now only be asking for some manner of "password" or phrase that can be used to verify that a registrant is the ticket holder. Conflicts of names and handles suggest to us that is is a good idea. Just type in something obscure or wildly idiosyncratic, but something that you can be sure you will remember. You may be asked to recite this "password" at registration.
