Registration, Payment and Seat Selection Process:
-Create/Log in to your FITES forum account.
-Purchase the number of tickets you need in the store.
-Once payment has been received and accepted, you will receive forum private message containing the details of your order, including a code and a link to download your ticket(s) which will be in PDF form. (Tickets will be four to a page.) Your ticket will be REQUIRED to enter the event!
-Go to http://intranet.fites.net and create an account for each seat you have paid for using the code from your purchase. Reuse the same code for each seat. For example if you and 4 friends purchased 5 tickets together give each person the SAME code to register their account.
-Once you have created your account reserve your seat via the "map" link on the top menu bar. Note: You can change your seat for another (given that it's unoccupied) at anytime before the event on the same page.
*Note: Seating is expected to fill up fast, so if you want to guarantee your ability to sit near friends, sign up and pay quickly!
If you have any issues or concerns please reach out to us on the support form or @ [email protected]!
FAQ:
Q: Why does your new store require registration to the forums?
A: We have found over the past few events that mail has been an issue for distributing registration information. So this is multifaceted.
---We found that emails often got lost or thrown in the junk bin. This system will notify you via a Private Message and by default this will also send you an email to the email account you registered with.
---All your order details are kept under your account and you can retrieve your codes/keys/tickets at any time.
Q: Why do I have to create ANOTHER account for seating?
A: This account is kept on a web server that will be brought to the event and while do our best to provide a basic internet connection for the event we know that sometimes the tubes get clogged. Also, the site is used for not only seat reservation, but allows us to put information here during the event. The schedule and tournament sign up will be on this site as well as hotel menus, game and voice server information and more.
Q:How can I get a discount on my hotel room for this event?
A:Call the hotel front desk (717-697-0321) try to get someone on the phone that is local to Park Inn. Then mention FITES. You may have to spell it for them, because in the past they tried looking up "fights" and that you would like to book a room at the group rate.
