D23 Expo 2022 prep
I got my badge today. I went to activate it and I received an Incorrect Barcode error. I checked 3 times and entered whats on the badge. So email out to D23 support - but a note to you all is dont wait to activate your badge. Get it done in case you get an error. This way you wont have issues registering for the RSP for events.

Thanks for the heads up. We got our badges today, too. Will try to activate them tonight.

I received that same message via email. Hope they fix this quickly. Also, not sure if Mr. Tea's ticket transferred or not. His account looks like it did. My account says it is still waiting for this to happen. And when I click on the transfer link in the acceptance email? It takes me to a dead page. Sigh...

With all of these troubles already - Im not convinced that we WILL be able to make reservations without the badge. A lot of confidence in their process is lost (and it was so bad before!).

I received an email from Michelle at D23 asking for some additional information. We'll see where this goes...

An "official" email from D23 admin acknowledged that many people had this issue and the D23 is looking at fixes

Received a mass email from D23. Issue is fixed and they activated the badges. I still need to check my account to make sure there aren't any errors.

I followed the email's directions to manage my account and Mr. Tea's. Made sure we knew which badge number belonged to whom and made sure the transfer had processed. So far, so good!

now we wait for Showpass and the virtual queue for shopping. That will be interesting... - I wonder if there is a way to share an image of a QR code and then use the code. I've never done that. its always using my camera.

And so, Disney Corp management (and D23) has taken a page from Disneyland management - they've given you less than a week to prepare for selecting which panels you want to attend. If you're going with friends (like I am) this could be very challenging. and if they use the same systems like last time - UGH - that took FOREVER. I had to figure out a hack to get around the long wait and it worked - but I think they've changed the software or the provider now so it wont be the same (last time it was the same one Disneyland used, so Im sure thats the case this year).
And in classic fashion EVERYTHING will be on your phone. Look around at the displays and booths? Nope, need to get my virtual queue ready for the next shopping item. Watching a panel? not paying attention because I've been alerted that spots have opened up at another panel. and so on. Oh darn - which app do I use for what? and I didnt get the overnight update of the app - so now I missed out on a fun mini-event (or in current parlance : activation).

You mean ... not everyone has 3 separate phones that can all be logged in for different purposes and are somehow taped to your wrist/arm for convenience sake. or perhaps with one of the phone trays I've seen people use for Pokemon go?
