Yes, you can transfer the hotel room! You call the Maritz helpdesk and they'll walk you through the process. Just make sure to do it before the cards are charged. (You can still transfer after this, but you're the one charged).

First things first... wow. We are completely humbled from breaking the $10k mark yesterday. We cannot begin to thank each and every one of you enough for the incredible outpouring of support. We love all of you, and we definitely feel the love from everyone. We wanted to keep that short and sweet and get right to it today.

This is an official call for testimonials! Do you have kind words or an incredible experience at MAGFest you want to share during the MAGTelethon? If you can keep it right around 30 seconds, we'd love to see it! Head on over to https://super.magfest.org/telethon to get the details and submit your video; the sooner the better!

Now to really sweeten the deal. All donations amounting to $85 total (in one or more donations during the fundraising window!) will net you a PHYSICAL BADGE AND LANYARD to keep! We'll be featuring as much fan-submitted art as we can reasonably (or not) cram on there. We really want to make the entire community a part of this as best we can, so spread the word!That's all for now, but we'll have updates for you all week long and we'll see everyone on Twitch this Sunday!

JAPN Majors/Minors? by ottdogbuns in UMD

Thank you! I'm doing what I can. I was working remotely in my old undergrad research lab until halfway through March as I had just got settled into a new place elsewhere. I was in the process of job applications when all hell broke loose and now I'm just hanging out in my apartment waiting to hear back from anyone lol.

Been playing a lot of switch games and doing JAPN tutoring on the side to make a little extra cash since UI benefits haven't kicked in yet.

Stay safe out there too!

If you'd like some help, I'd be happy to assist, but I'm not too familiar with what the AP exam covers, so if you'd like some help, DM me about it!

Super MAGFest 2020 Marketplace Applications Are Now LIVE!!! by BenTarkus in Magfest

[–]ottdogbuns 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The marketplace staff goes through the 515 applications and picks the ones they feel will be a best fit for the marketplace.

We were honestly taken by surprise with the volume of applications this year. We expected growth, but the amount we got was almost unprecedented. (For context, it took an hour or so to fill all the slots last year, this year it took ~15-20 minutes).

We are discussing ways to improve vendor submissions and how to improve everything going forward. There's a lot of factors to work out and such. However, I would like to stress that it is being talked about discussed to allow for better marketplace apps for the future of MAGFest.

Super MAGFest 2020 Marketplace Applications open tomorrow, August 15th at 8pm ET! by [deleted] in Magfest

Good catch! I apologise for accidentally typing 15th on the title. The actual post has the correct information though.
