Sorry for the blank email earlier.
I put in a bunch of GM badges for PFS. Should be most of them for con.
One thing I REALLY appreciated was how fast it was. Being able to just enter an email address made a job that took about an hour last con take less than 15 minutes this time around.
Thanks for all the hard work making this happen!

Answer One: Tracy has it correct with one addendum, the person has to have a Strategicon account to link to. This page does not make accounts. Also, if the account doesn't have an email defined, the person needs to log in and add one before we will connect the two.
Answer Two: If you make a bug requesting it, it's a future possibility. I like the idea, and I bet everyone else would too.

John,
Only staff, Con support and department heads badges will have to go through me as I am the person entering them.
I don't know the answer to two. Sorry.
Tracy :)

Seems to work fine for the vendors portion. Question one: To add an email to the account it *has* to go through Tracy? Question two: Will this be made into a data base where we can "activate" an account to create a badge for the current convention without re-entering all the data?

Don't feel bad. No one could. It's the challenge of having limited testing ability on a live site. Things should work now.
Now I need a few volunteer/Sr volunteer/GM names to substitute into my test badges. Boardgames, Collectibles, RPGs, if you each send me three names to enter, I'll have a decent data set for the next task and I can get rid of all the test badges I had to make.
Thanks,
Tanya

I tried two badges, each time I hit SUBMIT I was immediately sent to a "The web address you entered could not be found" page. It appears no badges were created or requested. John In a message dated 7/15/2015 10:53:10 P.M. Pacific Daylight Time, deptheads at strategicon.net writes:

There is a check box for no account. Select it and it will give you first and last name fields. Vendor name should go under title.
If a vendor wants their badges attached to a Strategicon account, they need to provide you with an email address, otherwise, don't worry about it.

I went to input the badges and apparently can't. I don't and won't have the email address for the names, and the badges need the vendor name (i.e. Weekend Warrior) as well as the person's name.

When you go to the page and start entering, you'll realize that everyone who can enter badges can see all the badges of the badge types you have access to. How much more oversight do we need? If you see potential abuse, point it out to Eric A. and Tracy.
Also, Tracy and Eric A. can see all badges.
A few of us kicked the tires on this page for Gamex 2015, so I think most of the problems we found have been fixed. John, if you don't see your vendors in the list after entering them, let me know, so I can fix it.
If there is something you feel needs to be added to this page, please add it to bug 38. Yes, that means you have to create an account; I'm still waiting for someone to put in a request.

I'm not sure we want each department to input their own badges without a buffer. Remember miniatures having 50 badges for 18 events and some of those were dead? We need some kind of oversight to protect the con.

More to the point, we're trying to get people in the system as we confirm them, not right before pre-reg gets turned on or right before the con starts. It's intended to make both Eric A's and Tracy's lives a little less stressful in the weeks right before the con.
If you're in charge of the distributing a pile of badges from registration, we would prefer you be the one entering them. That's all Vendors, Games Masters, Volunteers and Senior Volunteers. People outside these four usually have to be approved first, so Eric A or Tracy will be dealing with them anyway.

John,
I think Tanya wants you to enter some vendors on the Strategicon site using your account in order to work out any bugs that might exist. We are trying to make sure that the system will be working correctly when the time comes for everyone to enter their badge requests.
Tracy :)

Hi All,
Please get some Volunteer, Senior Volunteer, and Game Master badges in the system. I need to do some work on the badge files for Tracy.
And John, please get some vendors entered.
