Pre-Registration
This is taking payment in advance of the event.
it has three primary uses;
1. to enable the organisers to have some money in the bank before BJC to pay for much of the organising, deposits etc..
2. to create a group of people you definitely know are coming, they act as your walking adverts.
3. makes people commit to coming to your event.
To encourage people to pre-register, tickets are normally sold at a discount to people who pre-register compared to the prices charged on the door. This discount has varied between 10-20% (for more details see Ticket prices). Some conventions (e.g. Huddersfield BJC and Cardiff BJC) have had early pre-reg prices and standard pre-reg prices to encourage people to pre-register earlier, rather than just leave it to the last week before the pre-registration deadline.
In 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 (at least), attendance was almost exactly double the pre-reg numbers.
If you are planning on organising a BJC then there is a spreadsheet with all the pre-reg data back to 1999, available by request from Mini Mansell.
Only three people have attended every BJC, they are referred to on this wiki as the Gold three.
